Crossbow bolts, sandals, slingshots, and more.

Among the centuries’ worth of eggshells, prey remains, and natural nesting material, researchers identified 226 objects that were either made or altered by humans. These included weaponry like a crossbow bolt and wooden lance, decorated sheep leather, and parts of a slingshot. Using carbon dating, the team determined that the items also had a huge age range. For example, a shoe made from twigs and grass is around 675-years-old, while a basket is estimated to have been woven about 150 years ago. Beyond the manufactured relics of our species’ past, archaeologists also catalogued 2,117 bones, 86 hooves, and 43 eggshells. They even located 11 hair remains among the nesting layers. More analysis will provide a look into the surrounding area’s past environment, as well as its various flora and fauna.

You’d be shocked to find how many talented creative folks have insanely good scripts actually talking about aspects of our present moment in time and No. One. will fund them.

#working in indie games is great because I can actually say things #no one on Steam is gate keeping if I talk about Trump or abortion or trans people or climate change

Where I come from, we don’t worry about these fruity-tuity California style buds. Okay? I’m from Scranton. What i’m smoking is dirt. So lets get that straight jack. Pure brick. Ass. Okay? America- Americans are wanting to smoke that dirt, okay? You go up to someone and say, hey, I’m gonna give you a big bag of this heady bud, but I’m taking your stash of mids, they’re gonna say C’mon man! get out of here! *audience cheers* that’s right. that’s right. Get the hell out of here! We like stems! We like seeds! Where I come from.

OH, I see the misunderstanding now! You thought I didn't *understand* your ideology! No, I totally follow your logic here, it all makes perfect sense the way you've laid it out. What I'm saying is that you're wrong

quizzicalfish19

My college course in logic taught that truth, validity, and soundness were different things. True means that a fact is a real fact, not a misunderstanding or mistake or lie. Valid means that the argument is well structured: if these facts are true, then this conclusion is also true. Sound means that an argument is both valid and true. All the facts are true and based on the facts the conclusion makes sense.

Many of the things our political enemies believe are valid. If the world actually worked the way they think it works, their opinions and decisions would be reasonable. Unfortunately they're starting from premises that are just 100% untrue, like "Men and women are basically different species".

You would think this meant that all you had to do to change someone's mind about a topic is to convince them that their facts are wrong! Unfortunately that just kind of doesn't work very well for psychology reasons.

These pescatarian birds are directly exposed to PFAS contamination due to the island's position near the St. Lawrence Seaway.

Over fifty years of data show a peak in PFAS (also known as "forever chemicals") content in seabird eggs in the 90s, followed by a decrease as regulations went into effect. The most recent findings show a 70% decrease of most common PFAS.

While continued vigilance a regulation is needed, this data indicates that regulations are working to reduce PFAS concentrations in marine ecosystems.

Yes!!!! I did a review of literature on PFASs in human drinking water about half a year ago, and there is a lot of really good progress! Please celebrate this, please don't let this solution be forgotten (at least so quickly) as the ozone layer or acid rain.

We are making genuine progress! Producers are dramatically altering how much they use PFAS and how much gets released in effluent, but also there's a lot better understanding of how to remove PFAS from the environment!

Environmental problems CAN BE SOLVED.
