My favorite two anecdotes about Napoleon Bonaparte:
a) Ludwig van Beethoven had initially composed his third symphony in honor of Napoleon. Upon hearing the news that Bonaparte had crowned himself emperor, he immediately crossed out the dedication. (1/2)

'Woke' Napoleon never becomes dictator, let alone emperor, and probably remakes Europe far more thoroughly as a result.
On top of everything else, he completely shat on what could've been an *amazing*, legendary legacy continuing his earlier career.
All he had to do was preserve the Republic.

If you don’t think Woke Napoleon would have been awesome you have no heart
If you don’t think Woke Napoleon is an impossible contradiction in terms you have no brain

Noah Smith? More like Noah Braincells, amirite?
Noah Smith is paid in the high six-figures to write a blog read by Americans who believe themselves to be intelligent. Yet, he is both unable to read a sign and also for some reason chose to have a 90 minute layover for a flight that takes 90 minutes.

Today I learned (thanks, NPR) that from 1875 to 1975, there were more than 6,000 commercial shipwrecks on the Great Lakes. The publicity of song led to safety standard changes and there has not been a single commercial wreck since then.
