When did russia begin its aggression? People who don’t know the history are easily susceptible to propaganda. They will believe that russia attacked Ukraine because of “NATO’s expansion” or the Revolution of Dignity. But these arguments simply don’t stand a history test. 1/n

@ChivalryGuild Maybe he doesn't deserve it, but we do.

I am not English, but from my vantage point the undeniable truth about Richard is that he ultimately brings great glory and honor to England, however imperfect his reign. He deserves his heroic statue in front of Westminster. x.com/ChivalryGuild/…

He also raised an envious and treacherous man-child (John) who would stab his brother in the back. The sins of the father caught up with the son.

A steal on Kindle at present:

I see Magna Carta is trending again for the usual reasons, with lots of ill-informed certainty on both sides, so here’s a very short thread: 1. In 1215 Magna Carta was not granted only to 'the barons', but 'to all free people', i.e. about a third of the population. [1/4]

@ithacarising @DrFrancisYoung What a missed opportunity.

I remember Lord Sainsbury finally being elected in chancellor at Cambridge in 2011 when the alternate - and more popular - choices were Abdul Arain, a local British-South Asian shop keeper of a popular grocery grocery supermarket on Mill Rd (Al-Amin), the RSC actor Brian Blessed as well as lawyer Michael Mansfield QC. They spilt the votes and Sainsbury got in. @DrFrancisYoung Hopes springs eternal.

Not my first choice (I’d prefer Cambridge) but if no-one else wants to take this on I’d be prepared to give it a go

#CovenantTLC: "I was wrong."Victor Lee Austin reflects on Episcopal identity and laments his past emphasis on the #EpiscopalChurch as essentially catholic. covenant.livingchurch.org/2023/10/24/i-w…

I wonder if this is really true.

For the love of peace and sanity, won't someone send me a Bluesky invitation?

#OTD in 1645, 18 men and women convicted of witchcraft were hanged in the marketplace in Bury St Edmunds. Among them was John Lowes, rector of Brandeston, who was permitted to read the outlawed Prayer Book burial service over his own body on the scaffold

@John_Cyrano Photo, pls?

So…when is Tom Moldvay day?

@OriginalGrogna1 @_FrostGiantJarl A picture of my Thursday! None this weekend: it’s baby girl’s birthday.

What’s everyone’s weekend gaming plans? #DnD #ttrpg #RPG #osr #gamingwithfriends #TSR #gygax

@DrFrancisYoung I think that your problem is you’re never pushing through to the other side. Camp until you are no longer sick of it!

As this year’s only experience of camping draws to a close, once again I vow never to camp again in my life ⛺️ #sickofcamping

@John_Cyrano 😡😡🤬

What did you do for GG day? I ran a party through the Caves of Chaos.
