(The Arts Library is how you would imagine a university library would look) and the most beautiful surroundings. I felt very nurtured as a student and people were really friendly. I don't think Bangor University would be a good fit for Mrs Oakeshott as it doesn't tend to attract overpriveliged twits

I am a Bangor University Alumini and it is a fantastic place. I did study music rather than Ocean Sciences but its a great place to learn whichever subject you do. Student living costs are one of the lowest in the UK, its a beautiful walkable city, it has some of the most beautiful buildings

Crazy idea for future protests could @lovehoneyofficial.bsky.social or @annesummers.bsky.social provide sponsership?

I hate that protest is still needed but I'm loving the creativity and absurdity of the protests. Question for @whoresofyore.bsky.social have sex toys ever been used in protests before or is this a first?

Can I join you? I play the trombone so could follow them round playing 'sad trombone' sounds.

I've used it myself but as an official legal term on official documents.

Cats to Blame for Octopus Deity Enshrinement Delay Hayasuhime Shrine in Oita prefecture is a rarity in Japan because it is dedicated to the octopus. When local sculptor Kousei Hashimoto was tasked with creating a new deity to be enshrined, he expected for it to be completed by the end of the year. But the neighborhood cats had different plans.

I think part of the appeal of the WASPI campaign was the nostalgia for 'how things were', and the failure of some people to adapt to change. Brexit was a perfect example of where people will fight tooth and nail to defend a nostalgic hallucination over reality.

Instruments like the guitar were influenced by string instruments encountered in different ports around the world.

Although this is a little early for the era you're looking at, there would have been other instruments like the carnyx used by armies for signalling in battle, such as drums and bugles, which would have travelled with the armies by sea. It would also be fascinating to see how modern western

As an example, heres a fascinating demonstration of the Carnyx, a brass instrument used by the Romans, by a modern musician, John Kenny. He's written new music for the instrument. youtu.be/zSLsTf2TH-Y?...

Musical instruments played by seafarers, the words of songs they sang, showing the origins and uses of songs and music and how it changed and melded as it moved across the seas, and was passed between individuals.

Is this like a practice unfortunately used by certain Canadian police forces, where they would arrest indigenous people in winter then drive them far away from civilisation and leave them stranded.
