10000 YEAR OLD ROCK ART OF GIRAFFES FOUND IN LIBYA LET'S GO

kaylmao

YES!!!!!!! YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

of note: 95% of libya is desert, and giraffes are not found there! but this predates not just the libyan desert, but the entire sahara desert it's a part of! giraffes aren't found there any more and this is a memory of a time when things were giraffier

also apparently this rock art dates across multiple periods spanning thousands of years? but i couldn't find much detail on that so i can't give specifics

but yeah, this isn't just a memory of giraffes, but of giraffes now absent encountered by people just 2000 years (the difference between the late roman republic and today) out of the ice age, in a climate unfamiliar to any of the hundred billion people born since the desertification of the sahara drove the ancient egyptians to the nile, near the start of the agricultural revolution

the time between this and the birth of the sahara was nearly as long as the time between the birth of the sahara and now, in which all recorded history is contained, and all languages we can recognise at all - the language and culture of these people would be totally alien to current libyans, twice the difference between the oldest european language and english, predating all but libya's mountains!

and we have pictures of giraffes of the time! what a beautiful gift from such a distant past

You ever just have a casual -life is terrible what if I delete everything- saturday morning and then, out of nowhere, the super shy neighborhood cat who never let me touch her in the past 4 years, suddenly starts to love up on me and rubs her little head all over me.🥲

If you want to make your backyard a safe haven for lesser dragons, you must keep a close eye on your pets. While it is unlikely that a curious kitten will be able to cause a dragon physical harm, the egos of these small wyrms are as fragile as they are beautiful.

Just finished watching Godzilla Raids Again.

It is a very weird film, caught in between the somber tone of the original, which it tries as best it can to maintain, and the more campy tone and events that I'll refer to as KAIJU WRASTLIN. It's not bad exactly, but it's definitely nowhere near as strong. Anguirus is a good monster design, but it's not my favorite by any means, and never really has been. Dr. Yamane returning was cool, but he never really did anything or impacted the plot in any way. It's also bloodier than I expected. Anguirus dies halfway through when Godzilla bites into his neck and he bleeds out before Godzilla blasts him. The movie's ending also left a bad taste because of how long the avalanche lasts.

It's an okay movie, but I'm never going to say to myself "Oh I need to rewatch Godzilla Raids Again!"

Also it was very funny that when Godzilla reappeared, Dr. Yamane basically said to the military "Why don't we watch the first movie to find ideas to kill this new Godzilla?"
