Buried with a padlock on her foot and an iron sickle across her neck, "Zosia" was never supposed to be able to come back from the dead.
Entombed in an unmarked cemetery in Pien, northern Poland, the young woman was one of dozens feared by her neighbours to have been a "vampire".
Now, using DNA, 3D printing and modelling clay, a team of scientists has reconstructed Zosia's 400-year-old face, revealing the human story buried by supernatural beliefs.

The researchers found that honoki, a kind of magnolia tree native in Japan and traditionally used for sword sheaths, is most suited for spacecraft, after a 10-month experiment aboard the International Space Station.
Once deployed, LignoSat will stay in the orbit for six months, with the electronic components onboard measuring how wood endures the extreme environment of space, where temperatures fluctuate from -100 to 100 degrees Celsius every 45 minutes as it orbits from darkness to sunlight.
The world's first wooden satellite, built by Japanese researchers, was launched into space on Tuesday, in an early test of using timber in lunar and Mars exploration.
LignoSat, developed by Kyoto University and homebuilder Sumitomo Forestry, will be flown to the International Space Station on a SpaceX mission, and later released into orbit about 400 km above the Earth.

High 80s not bad for a Tuesday.
"A Dark and Drowning Tide" is a great new find but I've been falling asleep so fast that I'm not making much progress each week. With a latency of only 7 minutes I'm getting maybe through one chapter.
Last night I started on chapter 12 and kept waking up around chapter 21 with no idea what happened and starting back at 12 again. This happened twice before I gave up 🤣 and just went back to sleep.
Finally decided to check out #MissScarletAndTheDuke.
I actually really adore Cathy Belton in general and Kate Phillip isn't bad either 😜

#TonyWeaver talking about "that scene" in #DragonAge ...
I'm not gonna lie ... it's awful. It's not done well and, while I can't speak directly, seems more offensive to those it is trying to "represent".
DragonAge by itself is a pale representation of the golden age of RPGs and Bioware as well so when you combine stuff together it's not the best experience.
It's #Forspoken bad and if you played Forspoken then you get it.
It's possible to try SO hard you go the total WRONG way.
#LineofDuty could be returning for a much-anticipated seventh series, according to one report.
The Sun says that all the main players have attended a summit to discuss schedules and how they can fit in filming.
This is just one rumor so take it with a grain of salt.
Frankly the last season was trash and I really was having a hard time enjoying it by the end.
Season 1 and season 4 were some absolutely amazing television and everything in between was kind of meh ...
I'll keep an eye out.

I started a new audiobook a few weeks ago but I've been so exhausted lately that I kept falling asleep before getting past chapter 2. It's taken a while for me to really be able to make any progress enough to even begin talking about it but I am absolutely LOVING "A Dark And Drowning Tide" by Allison Saft narrated by one of my favorites, Saskia Maarleveld.
It ticks a lot of boxes for me especially in the fantasy aspect. Fantasy books aren't usually a favorite but I love Saft's worldbuilding.
Although his background lies in writing and film directing, Shukla began creating physical art as a personal escape, and one day, on a whim, he posted one of his cracked glass pieces on social media—an act that unexpectedly garnered over 4 million views within days.
Niall Shukla, a remarkably skilled and self-taught artist, creates stunningly intricate portraits on laminated glass by meticulously cracking it with controlled hammer strikes.
His technique demands immense patience and precision, as each strike must be carefully calculated in both pressure and placement; a single misstep can shatter the glass beyond repair, forcing him to begin anew.

Harvard professor Sunn m'Cheaux is someone I follow on multiple platforms and whom I have shared here before. His brand of commentary makes sensitive, dysregulated, dishonest, and delusional people angry.
He tends to break through people's flimsy walls often, allowing the truth of who they are to come spilling out. It's never surprising when people reveal who they truly are, it's inevitable because walking around with a mask on 24/7/365 like many do is exhausting.
