it’s so cool that el greco painted stuff like this in the early 1600s and people were like “hmmm…..bit odd! not sure about this!” and then 300 years later people looked at it again and were like “OHHHH”

hello all! i need a recommendation—books to gift to a very clever well-read english lady to cheer her up while she recovers from surgery :) she has very broad interests but especially loves history and especially women’s history !

its pretty crazy how mfs will talk about “decolonialism” until you bring up giving the netherlands back to the sea and then suddenly you’re the villain….

sorry, not sorry, not going to care about christmas because i grew up with a loving, psychologically supportive father in constant state of peace, happiness, and excitement about the future.

hearing the key in the door was my own personal “christmas” for almost 20 years.

this the horse btw

maybe my favourite etymology: the phrase “curry favour” originates from a medieval french morality poem about a conniving horse named fauvel who amasses a following of sycophantic humans to groom and tend to him.

over time, “currying fauvel” eventually became “currying favour.”
