Assignment finally submitted this morning, so now I have the dilemma of what to do with my free evening.

Wills transcription? Family tree work? Studying a random London parish in 1640s London for plague victims?

So much to research, so little time. 😖

There are holes in the floor to let the rain water drain through!

Honestly if the vampire spiders represent rebellion against governments, I think they were the secret heros.

BJS Academy Official portrait of President Cleveland by Eastman Johnson (1824-1906) in 1891. Grover Cleveland was the twenty-second president (March 4, 1885 – March 4, 1889) and the twenty-fourth president…

A hidden tumour.
A secret yacht.
A president fighting for political survival.

In 1893, Grover Cleveland underwent a daring and covert operation to remove a suspected cancer—without the public ever knowing.

This is where surgery meets history.

#OTD in 1935 the Conseil Consultatif de l'Armement drafted plans to build a 45 ton tank with up to 75 mm of armour. This work eventually led to the creation of the Char B1 ter. Development proceeded slowly and ultimately only a few prototypes were built. #tanks #history #WW2 #WWII

#OTD On 9 April 1940, Nazi Germany invaded Denmark and Norway in Operation Weserübung. Denmark, neutral and lightly defended, surrendered after about six hours to avoid bombing Copenhagen, making it one of the shortest campaigns of World War II.

Throwback Thurs
There's this badass ancient vampire spider in Japanese lore. Wanted to write about it for Tues, but unfortunately its name was used as a slur. The gov referred to rebels as this monster in a derogatory way. So I won't be using its name. Can we reclaim the monster tho? #history #myth
