What we can learn from scientific analysis of Renaissance recipes Multispectral imaging, proteomics, historical texts yield new insights into 16th-century medical manuals.

There's an amazing technique where researchers can do protein extraction from fingerprints left in Renaissance era cookbooks to see what plants and herbs they were actually using...

Reform 23% (-1) Greens 21% (+4) Labour 16% (-2) Tories 16% (-2) Lib Dems 14% (=)

YouGov latest poll. A reminder that over the past year Reform's polling is usually overestimating the final vote in by-elections whereas the Green's polling underestimates it. With everything being so fucking awful you don't need to doomerise about this...enjoy the bar chart, even for a moment.

A mug of coffee, hyacinth and a laptop playing Perfect Tides: Station to Station, with a pretty sunset picture with a probably illegible caption "Wast that first primal love just a free sample? The dealer's first hit that will come at ever-rising cost?"
