Iām paying to force seven thousand strangers to see a photo of my late husband having fun with his dog. Tumblr Blaze is totally worth it. XD
Thank-you to all of my new Internet stranger friends for being so gracious about having my post shoved onto your dashboards. I loved reading all of your kind tags and comments! Both Martin and Bosco have been gone for several years now but for 24 hours, they felt very present in my life. I greatly appreciate this gift. ā¤ļø
Reblog to have your dashboard be visited by the spirit of joy that death can end but not erase.
Love that this is well beyond 7000 people now and still going
@leavescrown Exactly! Itās a beautiful gift. Martin and Bosco out there travelling around the Tumblr community, continually making new friends.
@sseanettles
#hello again martin and bosco!! sending you boys round for another go :)
Reading your tag made me laugh out loud. Itās like two old friends unexpectedly stopped by your porch for a quick visit. XD
Iāll always reblog Martin and Bosco when they splash across my dash, because of Reasons.
Whatās loved, lives.
There is something truly beautiful in seeing a comment like that from someone so very loved and recently lost.
Yes, Peter, youāre absolutely right. Whatās loved, lives. You three boys all come back around again to see me again soon, okay?

finding out there's a frankenstein ballet and that it was in october of last yearā¦DEVASTATING
look at this. look at these. im foaming at the mouth
It was stupid good. So good in fact that the bbc filmed a version and put it on dvd when it debuted. I bought that dvd after I saw the show and put it up on the Internet Archive. The audio is not great but the dancing is spectacular. Ever see a pas de deux around an anatomical dissection? You will.
Do you ever think about Doggerland?
Like how fucked up is it that itās justā¦.. gone.
I tend to forget about it and then when I remember it again Iām like āOh yeah! Thereās like an entire country sized stretch of land thatās just fucking GONE.
wellā¦. āgoneāā¦.
Things I have learned since making this post;
The running theory (I canāt remember if it was definitive proof or not but I try not to make concrete statements on history any more) is that what caused the sinking of Doggerland was not the slow heating up of the Earth leading to a gradual melting of ice and snow causing the rise of the oceanā¦.
What flooded Doggerland was a massive fucking CHUNK of Norway FELL INTO THE OCEAN and it caused the largest tsunami we have physical evidence for on earth and it fucking flooded Doggerland IN ONE SINGULAR DAY with a rush of water so strong, large and powerful it literally had the force to rip people to shreds when it hit them
Doggerland on Wikipedia
I do think about Doggerland, fairly frequently! And I feel itās important to point out that its disappearance absolutely was because of āthe slow heating up of the Earth leading to a gradual melting of ice and snow causing the rise of the oceanā. By the time of the tsunami, the land area would already have been reduced to a handful of small islands.
In general, a true tsunami (caused by displaced water) is never going to permanently submerge an area of land, because the water displacement is temporary and it will return to where it came from (causing huge damage on the way, of course). However, with islands that were already barely above sea-level, itās definitely possible that such a huge inundation just obliterated their topsoil and left them below water level.
Itās hard to say, though, because the end of the last Ice Age was a wild time for water moving around and getting into places it shouldnāt. In particular, as the glaciers melted youād often get huge meltwater lakes forming behind dams of ice and rubble which might then burst, suddenly dumping nearly inconceivable amounts of water all over the downstream terrain. One of these bodies of water, Lake Agassiz in North America, was so huge that it covered multiple states, and itās thought that it drained very suddenly into the Atlantic ocean about 8000 years ago (i.e. contemporary with the flooding of Doggerland), dumping so much water into the ocean that global sea levels rose 1-2m over the course of a couple of years.
And if youāre wondering - yes, itās theorised that this event, or the combination of the others like it, was responsible for the flood myths that exist in so many cultures. Coastal and lowland settlements around the world would have found themselves in a period of time where the sea just kept rising - not overnight, but inexorably and seemingly without any end in sight. Many, many cultures would have retreated to higher ground, only to find a few months later that the water was once more lapping at their doors.Ā In some ways I find that even more profoundly terrifying than the idea of a wall of water sweeping everything away.
Has everyone seen xkcd Time?
You should probably see xkcd Time

xkcd Time - at your own pace
Thatās not the only case!
That region had tropical climate, even at the peak of the last glaciation. There could have been a thriving agricultural civilization in those bygone river valleys 10,000 years before it started all over again in the Near East, and we wouldnāt know.
Oh, dude, the amount of outburst floods that happened at the end of or during the Pleistocene is OBSCENE. The Altai Floods, which created giant ripple currents like sixty feet tall. The Black Sea Deluge Hypothesis, which could explain the lack of Paleolithic sites on Turkeyās northern coast because they all drowned. The Missoula Floods. The Missoula Floods. Floods with the height of skyscrapers that would hit you like a truck going down the highway. Floods that were 50x more river flow than the Amazon and happened in an area 38x smaller. Floods that happened SO often and were SO strong that they literally created the Channeled Scablands and is partially why the area isnāt very forested because all the topsoil got scrubbed away.
And donāt even get me started on the Zanclean Flood, because WOW
Someone else might have already mentioned Some Facts About Doggerland, a piece of writing that gives me huge emotions every time I read it, but if not please enjoy!
To fellow Doggerland fans, I also want to shout out Julia Blackburnās Time Songs: Journeys in Search of a Submerged Land.
In honor of this post coming back around on my dashboard, here are more maps of Doggerland through the ages, from Barry Cunliffeās Europe Between the Oceans.
At the bottom of the Adriatic Sea there are remnants of roads from the Stone Age
Re: xkcd Time mentioned above: xkcd 1190 was a story that updated with a new frame first every 30 minutes and then every hour for over 120 days back in 2013. For people who canāt or donāt want to log into GitLab (which is where the provided link above sends you), explainxkcd has the full comic as a gif animation as well a plot summary and links to other resources, if you want to check it out.
Explain xkcd is a wiki dedicated to explaining the webcomic xkcd. Go figure.
This site lets you play the full comic and allows you to pause on whatever frame you want, which can make for an easier viewing experience than the very fast-moving gif.
