I think the only good thing about funhaus ending is that someday in the very near future, I will never have to see or hear ryan hailey ever again

the last stream is almost at an end and ryan has made about 60% of it about him

honestly the best way this stream and channel could have ended was with heartfelt speeches, a group bow, and someone colliding with a table and knocking over a beer, causing chaos to erupt in the final seconds. 15/10 would have sent them money for years

what a hugely talented bunch of people. I can't wait to see what they all do next

Oh hey, do you know what time it is? It is highly specific resource time!

Today we have the Royal School of Needlework Stitch Bank! There are HUNDREDS of stitch types in the RSN Stitch Bank.

And more added regularly, let’s look at a recent addition

I picked the first one in the 25 recently added Elizabethan stitches, the Elizabethan French Stitch

The stitch bank provides written and photo tutorials as well as a video option to learn to do it yourself. There are examples of the stitch in use, resources, references, everything but a needle and thread!

A satirical papyrus showing a lady mouse being served wine by a cat while another cat dresses her hair, a third cares for her baby, and a fourth fans her. The mice have hilarious huge, round ears.

In this case the word "satirical" is being used to help cover up the existence of the brief Mouse Dynasty, which occurred between the Eighteenth and Nineteenth dynasties, following the death of Pharoah Horemhab and his appointment of the palace Mouse, Pnw I (pronounced penoo) to the throne. Following the death of Pnw XIth, three years later, Ramesses I took the throne and the Nineteenth Dynasty began. Most traces of the Mouse Dynasty were eliminated, but several have survived.

As an Egyptologist, I can confirm that we have depictions of Pharao Pnw III and Pharao Pnw IX:

As you can see, they are stylistically very similar, and can thus be grouped into the same dynasty (dynasty eighteen and a half). If you want to read more about this topic, here are some resources: link

The internet is flooded with AI-generated photos and they're getting harder to spot.

Most of the time AI is used for click-farming, but lately images have been used in fake news stories and product scams.

Most important: THINK CRITICALLY. AI will eventually get too good to make obvious mistakes. Being media literate means checking not just if an image is real, but if the source is trustworthy.

If you're not sure, don't share! You might be spreading misinformation.
