The Fulbé constituted another significant scholarly diaspora in the region, especially the Toroɓɓe clerisy, which included some of the most prominent scholars in the kingdoms of Bornu and Bagirmi (modern Chad).

I am trudging through the federalist papers. But as they argue for a standing federal army during peacetime, and how it's laughable that this could ever be a bad thing, I wonder how they would interpret WTF Ice is doing right now, acting just like the King of England's private standing army?

Frank Gehry: maximalist master who created instant icons like the Bilbao Guggenheim
Frank Gehry: maximalist master who created instant icons like the Bilbao Guggenheim

We are currently working round the clock to save 40+ cats who were living in a home that recently burned down. These cats are in addition to the 100s we are caring for as winter is begins. We are in desperate need of food for all. If you can help we'd appreciate it.

also tempted to fill the rest of this & finally do the tapestry/blanket thing, it's roughly the same size as the thing i scanned for the other one

I just don’t see how we can pretend even for a moment that anything involving our federal government is remotely normal when the president is covering up his involvement in a child sex trafficking ring. Like, what are we doing here

This is such an amazing place! Imagine a botanical garden, that is mostly daylilies, but also gorgeously landscaped and filled with quirky art. Super highly recommend visiting. #asheville #appalachia
