All things history! Mostly Tudor, Regency, and Victorian, but also Neolithic, Celtic tribes, Roman invasion, Angle-Saxons, Middle Ages, Stewarts, Jacobean, Georgian, Edwardian, and more. Occasional political rants, frequent cats.
It's secondary to the real issue of this attack on #Iran being an insane, ILLEGAL war, but the fact that a brave #American female pilot was shot down in #Kuwait must be driving #PeteHegseth crazy...er.
Yes, it's still down for me.
MAGA loves it when people obey in advance and do their work for them. Insisting they're going to win is exactly what that is. I'm not interested in giving them what they want.
Chapter 7 of The House of Ill Repute is UP! :) #sanditon #janeausten Read and review at: archiveofourown.org/works/757113...

Don't do their work for them. That's exactly what they love and what they want everyone to do. Do not obey in advance.
I get your point, but putting the argument this way might actually get through to some people who otherwise would never listen. It is certainly true that we're going to end up paying for wars in Venezuela along with anywhere else Trump invades.
But are oil companies necessarily even all that excited about the idea? The infrastructure for oil extraction is kind of a mess, the entire situation is a mess, and oil prices are not that high right now. #venezuela
It won't help her. Trump and co are not going to let Delcy Rodriguez stay in the presidency. I should really open a market on that, because I would bet money on that outcome.
But isn't that like saying that a hurricane is a distraction from an earthquake? #greenland #venezuela #trump #epstein
Emma Cons's temperance 'Coffee Tavern' in Seven Dials, opened in the 1870s, was called The Cat and Comfort.
Well, if AMOC really does shut down, I'm afraid that the UK and Europe will be out of luck. OTOH, I'm a 5th gen MN girl, so I can tell you that you do get used to those winters.
I would love to see a series or movie on the Dakota executions, but I don't think there's ever been one.
Happy 3rd Day of #Christmas, the Feast of St. John the #Apostle. What kind of drugs was he on when he wrote the hallucinatory Book of #Revelation?? I once took an entire class focused on that one book of the #Bible. Anyway, many similar books did not make it in.
Nobody can beat Stephen Miller for sheer creepiness.
actually, what I care more about is that Snoop Dogg is kissing Trump's butt.
JFC I wish we could get LBJ back...
xmas tree
Happy #Holidays and Merry #Christmas to all those who celebrate! :) How exactly did the #Victorians make this kind of tree work?? Where did the other branches go? Questions, questions...
An image of Mr. Darcy in the upper left hand corner. Below him, in black text, it says, "I don't want a lot for Christmas, there is one thing I need, You must allow me to tell you, I admire and love you most ardently. Despite my family and your inferiority, you're the only one for me. We will share my good fortune, all I want, against my better judgement, is you."
I couldn’t let the day ending without posting this, can I? :)
If this was sold by the slice, I would definitely get it. But WHY is it only available as an entire pie?? #bajablast
A few billionaires are giving money to help feed people who can't access SNAP. Michael Moritz, Mark Cuban, and Bill Cummings are donating for sure. Guess what, not a Trump supporter to be found on that list!! #snap #trumpisevil
If superintelligent AI would turn on these people first, it would all be worthwhile.
This is something that even Reagan didn't try to do. #snap
To be fair, though, a few billionaires are giving money to help feed people who can't access SNAP. Michael Moritz, Mark Cuban, and Bill Cummings are donating for sure. Hmm, not a Trump supporter to be found on that list!! #snap #trumpisevil
Some days, I'm really rooting for AI to achieve sentience and just take over. It can't do much worse than this, and it might do better.

Okay, so this is late.... Happy Catunday! Baby, queen of all she surveys. 🙂#cute #cats
I do have to give Jeff Bezos credit for ONE thing, though: he's actually putting major funding into research for incurable diseases with his massive donations to Altos Labs. It's like giving Andrew Carnegie credit for building libraries, but here we are.
This is SUCH a great idea. #epsteinfiles
