We watched 'Secrets of the Saqqara Tomb' on Netflix this evening.

Fascinating if you find ancient Egyptian tombs interesting.

The artefacts date from the Fifth Dynasty, which ruled Egypt from around 2,500 BC to 2,350

Now I might be a bit thick,but shouldn't that be 2,350 to 2,500 BC

No.
2500 BC is older then 2350 BC.
Like saying they ruled from 1980 to 1985, Not ,they ruled from 1985 to 1980.

3 part youtube documentary covering the controversial 2017 student protests at Evergreen State College in the US.

Not a bad overview overall, but leaves out some of the more idiotic policies and decisions made by the administration, and also the aftermath

Counting backwards is a bit difficult for some

Which way to the examples of stupidity thread?

Correct, but it's very strange to put BC before the first date rather than the second. Or at the very least, there should be BC after both dates.

This week, I’ll be mostly self isolating. Any Netflix recommendations?

One on Sky Arts was very good if you are an ageing hippy. David Crosby:Remember my name.
Their harmonies were heavenly, its a crying shame that CS and N are now not even on speaking terms. This documentary gives a good few clues why (Spoiler: David Crosby is an absolute Cnut). Very good doc though made by Cameron Crowe.
