This website gives you untranslated chunks of ancient Greek papyri texts from Oxyrhynchus Egypt to transcribe. There are a series of characters for you to match up with what you see on the fragments.

and Brennan will be all
and the fans will be all
Love all of this

A crested black macaque took this photo of a photographer in Indonesia.
The photographer set up his tripod, turned his back, when he turned back the macaques were playing with the camera- taking about 100 photos before the photographer was able to get his camera back.
What children’s skulls look like as they prepare to lose their baby teeth.
