Before the midterms of 1866, President Andrew Johnson called his congressional opponents traitors and said they should be hanged.
Voters were so profoundly moved by his words... that they gave his opponents a supermajority in Congress, and the nation got the Fourteenth Amendment.

Oh wow! This is what happens when you're photographing MSS & don't capture the text in the inner gutter. 1st, here's the photograph (made about 100 yrs ago) of the Codex Salernitanus, f. 82ra. Although that big tear of the page is obvious, the inner gutter hasn't been fully captured in the photo.

When you reach the morning, do not expect the evening for yourself; and when you reach the evening, do not expect the morning for yourself.”

87 years ago, on the 16th of November 1938, LSD was first synthesized by Swiss chemist Albert Hoffman with the goal of obtaining a respiratory and circulatory stimulant with no effect on the uterus. Hoffman also discovered LSD's psychedelic effects in 1943 after accidentally ingesting it. #otd 🗃️

“If my voice makes you uncomfortable, good…
because the minute adults start defending predators by defending the age of a child, you’re not protecting the truth, you’re protecting the predator.”
