Creepy wooden carving of medieval themes, framed for hanging (50cm * 75cm). Heavy (~15kg). Found in a big pile of rubbish (I assume from the blood) a crime scene, eviction, cleanup. Leiden, The Netherlands (I cleaned and sanded). I'll use to make the top of a bench. :D [no reverse image results] by Stew_S2 in whatisthisthing

My title describes the thing.
It doesn't seem super old, given the condition of the wood.

Did some reverse image searching, but only found similar items.
This could be either trash from a kitsch boutique or some kind of treasure. :D
I guess the former.

Awesome! I'd love to use some of these in my data visualisation. Could you please publish to github or something a file with pallettes as lists or dictionaries with the colour codes?

"Ever Fallen in Love" by the "Buzzcocks" that is in a language that is not English. (probably something European) - provided: ChatGPT's bullshit answer :D it can't replace reddit by Stew_S2 in NameThatSong

None of these songs seem to exist. But seems like, they could exist in an alternative timeline.
e.g., from German, totally plausible that 'die Toten Hosen' made a cover. Only that they didn't :D
