Mesolithic Harpoon Head, 4500 BCE, Stewartry Museum, Kirkcudbright, Dumfries and Galloway, Scotland

This is a 6500 year old harpoon made from a Red Deer antler and found in the River Dee. It is of a similar type of harpoon to those found in Mesolithic caves or rock shelters near Oban. This piece has been carbon dated to around 4500 BCE.

Honestly the idea of holy relics and the like is really stupid when you think about it, namely in Christian traditions. Like, really? You think God was dumb enough to accidentally leave behind a bit of his divine power for us to fuck around with?

You really think your all-knowing, omnipotent, eternally wise creator of the universe just, left us actual, unlimited power to fuck each other over with? Us??? They speak of him like a parent, a father - what sort of parent leaves a loaded gun on the floor with Cain and Abel around? Certainly not an all-knowing, all-wise one, that's for sure.

Like, you really think just because it had some of his blood touch it, the Spear of Longinus - assuming it still exists - would have some of his power? What, do you think Jesus was some sort of holy scratch and sniff? You honestly believe a supposedly wise deity would just, let some of his essence infect a physical object like that?

He already gave us free will, and with it we've already invented nuclear weapons and biological warfare and a dozen other ways to kill ourselves all on our own, do you really think he'd intentionally add to that list?

If your answer to any of these questions is yes, then God and I have a pretty similar sense of humor, and I'll be raising his bet on how long it takes for us to drive ourselves extinct. I don't think that speaks very highly of the almighty, though.

the light of creation is such a fascinating and fucked up macguffin. an object that plants ideas in your mind and pushes them further than you ever would on your own. the brush that painted reality. a brush that, dropped in the wrong place, kept painting more and more over the top of a finished work.

this thing doesn't solve your problems. it alerts you to problems you would've never known you had, and then it solves those problems. the IPRE home planet's first ever spaceship was made for inter-system travel. they hadn't even been to the moon! the moon!

it gave a man an existential crisis of incomprehensible proportion, and then it led him to solve it like a math problem. there is no acceptance, no peace. only improvement and growth, the next thing, the next universe.

it's introduced as evil relics to be destroyed, then fused into the great shield to save everyone. it's the hunger's fuel and the starblaster's flight. it is an entirely neutral force. your reasons are nothing. your desires are everything.

A Roman doll with moveable joints and accessories was found in the sarcophagus of Crepereia Tryphaena, an unmarried 20-year-old woman. The sarcophagus is dated to the late 100s (2nd c. AD) making the ivory “Crepereia Doll” nearly two thousand years old.

When I was in second grade I got hit by a car on my walk to school. I was taken to the hospital and had a broken eye socket, a hell of a shiner, and a concussion. My mom lived several hours away so it took her a bit to come to me, but when she did she brought a Doctor Barbie doll and a thing of Goody plastic barrettes. The doll got left behind at my dad’s house when I moved away at 18, but somehow two of the barrettes have stayed with me. And today I’m making one of them business casual.
