Good morning, #bluesky. Probably the best representation of the beautiful stained glass inside of Sainte Chapelle that I had the pleasure of capturing.

Book research is its own hobby. I could dig around for books I want to read all day. I could go to a bookstore and look at every spine, every cover, read every synopsis.

I don't think the business elites understand just how much they're hated. Today's assassination and rampant celebration of it is a window into America's soul. I think it's going to send shockwaves among top CEO's who will now spend exhorbitant amounts on security, further isolating them from society

Dear President Biden,
In the spirit of Dark Brandon, please use one of your Executive Orders to CANCEL ALL STUDENT DEBT.
That way, if trump wanted to reverse it, he'd have to disappoint all those families and reinstate all that debt.
You have immunity.
Just do it.

Blue Cross Blue Shield in Connecticut, New York and Missouri has declared it will no longer pay for anesthesia for the full length of some surgeries.

How about less "See, we were right, things are getting worse with Trump elected, and now it's gonna be over for those poor #trans people" and more: "No matter what the #SupremeCourt does, I won't comply and I'll fight for your life." Your smug armchair cynicism is making trans kids want to die.

Medieval English laws categorized eels by size. The most common types were:
Pimpernell / Pimper eels: very small
Shaft / Dole eels: medium
Stub eels: larger
Red: ??
No one knows for sure what red eels were. But they were bad, & customs officers threw them out if they found any.

Our Research Core cannot stop laughing at a picture they found of a man in a 1912 Michigan newspaper just labeled "Dick."
There is no mentions of a person named Richard or Dick, nor did this picture have any context.
