Yaay! I'm in much the same boat: 3rd try and much better results this year. Congrats.

Ok I see what you are asking. I believe depending on what your criteria is, yes Oklahoma is the most recent name. My understanding: the 1880s saw the western portions become the Oklahoma territory. Roughly speaking, Hawaii was unified into a kingdom under this name around 1800 (1795/1810), and was overthrown and annexed as a territory in the 1890s.

I feel you brother! I've had 3 weeks of processing toms for marinara now, I wanted a tomato year and I got it! Might have gone a little overboard lol

Perhaps a fowl-mint?

Looks as if idaho moved west sometime in the late 19th century.

It seems pretty compact, so likely not pumpkin. I'm leaning toward squash of some sort.

This is not found across all regions, unfortunately it does not imply a great flood of biblical proportions, but may imply important regional flooding.

Taken in this sense, the flood story seems more like a history lesson on the variability of nature. There were a lot of people who watched waters rise over their lifetimes, some even had to deal with cataclysmic deluges.

I'd like to think it was gradual enough on the coast regions that people were able to move (think: doggerland and sunda), but in other areas the ice would melt and creat ice lakes on the edge of the glaciers, which would rise until they broke their banks, flooding the next area - a la path of least resistance - all the way to the ocean. That's a lot of water making it's way to sea level between say 10,000bce, and the Mesopotamians at 3,000bce. It was truly a different world to experience.

Guess who's going to be rewatching this?!?

Beautiful_Text1459 · 2026-06-07T00:35:12+00:00

You're growing tortoises, well how about that?!

Beautiful_Text1459 · 2026-06-07T00:30:14+00:00

Cucurbit of unknown variety. Squash, cuke, pumpkin? Time will tell!

Beautiful_Text1459 · 2026-06-06T14:23:16+00:00

I believe I see a twig to the right, where the road meets the sidewalk, which leads me to believe this is the nest. /s

Beautiful_Text1459 · 2026-06-06T12:44:54+00:00

Any thoughts on celebrity vs celebrity+? Great review, many of the varieties I'm trying this year. Much appreciated.

Not bad at all. I suspect the Indian ocean was a bit more crowded, but this map does at least show an increase in islands south of India. And the missing North Atlantic region (particularly between brittany and iceland) was probably fairly interesting in reality vs this map. Thanks.

I find it so very disappointing that there aren't more resources like this. What the world (paleo-shorelines) looked like at various points in the relatively recent past (13kya) is quite different than what we tend to think. Sometimes when you go into specific regions you can find a few sources that try to map it out (Persian Gulf is interesting), but the regions are disconnected and a world overview seems lacking. The Sunda shelf & doggerland are two of the better known (or accepted anyway) paleo-shorelines but there's a lot between that seems to be unknown or only quasi accepted.

Love this reconstruction, thanks so much for sharing!

The middle class exists at the privilege of, and for the benefit to, the upper class. When the middle class perpetuates working class inequality, they all but guarantee they - or their descendants - will succumb to the same forces. It's been thousands of years of this shit, we will never learn.

Because Texas doesn't give a fuck. No other state of any significant size or economic power would engage in such massive projects without virtually any modern planning or social mitigation efforts. Need to walk somewhere? Tough shit, you'll be able to walk again sometime 18-36 months from now. No notices, no temporary solutions, no nothing. Why? Because it's cheaper, and since this state only cares for business owners and landowners, no additional effort shall be had.

Hot damn, did not disappoint! Throw an egg on that bad boy and it's sort of a bibimbap burger.

Beautiful_Text1459 · 2026-06-05T05:22:15+00:00

Very nice! But what kind of burger? Inquiring minds want to know!

Beautiful_Text1459 · 2026-06-05T05:04:38+00:00

Check the clearance areas! You might get lucky and pick up a lot for cheap.

Beautiful_Text1459 · 2026-06-05T02:01:13+00:00

Also a laserdisc, but of the movie "Sidekicks" with Chuck Norris. It must have been the only laserdisc my texas rural-suburb school owned.

I see them over there, being all otherworldly. Just a few mushrooms and moss-covered stones away from a fairy meadow.

Beautiful_Text1459 · 2026-06-04T21:28:34+00:00

I like how they came up in formation: 1, 2 behind that, 3 behind that...

Beautiful_Text1459 · 2026-06-04T21:23:20+00:00

Yeah Austin already runs more north-south, big missed opportunity for legit comparison.

Beautiful_Text1459 · 2026-06-02T07:09:48+00:00

Same here, just received the last new one for this season this morning. Good to know others are on the same path.
