I used to read books like Lord of the Rings or watch movies like Star Wars and think the villains were unbelievable.

1. History isn’t there to be liked or disliked.
2. History is there to be learned from.
3. History offends you? Even better. Then you’re less likely to repeat it.

It’s that simple.

I don't know who needs to hear this, but an economy controlled by a handful of oligarchs isn't a "free market."

Today's in Japan it's Mountain Day (山の日, Yama no Hi) so I thought I'd put together a small collection of my favourite prints featuring Mount Fuji, Japan's most iconic sacred mountain.
🎨'Yoshiwara' from the series 'Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji' - Utagawa Hiroshige, 1855.
