World War I As It Happened (1914) @warhappened.bsky.social · 28/06/2026
It's a beautiful day in sun-drenched Sarajevo, whose inhabitants are ready to host prestigious guests: Archduke Franz Ferdinand, joined with his wife, Sophie, Duchess of Hohenberg, is about to take a pleasant drive through the city to kick off their official visit in the region.

I’m really shocked and distressed at the news about Ann Widdecombe. She was a woman of deep faith who devoted her life to public service. The idea that she could have been murdered is truly horrifying. My thoughts and prayers are with her family and all who loved her.

Luxurious Grey locks, and a complete parroting of Moscow‘s foreign policy in the article. Sigh.

I guess this was inevitable, China is building a nuclear-powered battleship like America’s Trump Class. Except probably more real than the Trump Class? #OSINT www.navalnews.com/naval-news/2...

Federal law enforcement agents shot and killed a man in Minneapolis on Jan. 24 according to local police officials. DHS told Fox News that the man was “armed with a gun”. A video of the shooting appears to show that a gun was taken from the man before the first shot was fired. x.com/BillMelugin_...

This does seem just a little bit bad! Idk the sort of thing you’d think politicians might distance themselves from or something!

Chicago priest Fr. Larry Dowling describes procession to ICE facility: “No one had the courage to speak directly to us. No one from Homeland Security could stand in the presence of the Monstrance holding the Blessed Sacrament. No wonder. Evil is repelled, recoils in the presence of Christ.”

"Tyranny requires constant effort. It breaks, it leaks. Authority is brittle. Oppression is the mask of fear. Remember that." Looking forward to seeing Jimmy back on the air.

The nicest thing I can say here is that it’s good that the story starts with her getting a divorce because it was probably a good way of limiting the damage

One of the interesting parts of this book was that the iron axe head was as transformative for indigenous warfare (at least in Eastern North America) as the gun because they could easily breach the wooden palisades used in Native fortifications

If you're in the UK and want decent, free basic training in safeguarding then: 1) register an FA account 2) do all their online free courses for coaches/volunteers/committee members. Hell, last time i checked the full Welfare Officer course was only 20 quid. All certainlu better than nothing.

“At first, I thought it was a comedy act or some actor doing a scene. But when we realised, oh no, this isn’t an act, this is real, it was just a bit surreal.”

Interesting dynamic where Odysseus thinks some of the guys trying to bang his wife aren't that bad and don't deserve to die but Athena is like "hahahaha, no, we're going to murder All Of Them."

A Chesterton line that I often think of - "There is in the world a very aged rioter and demagogue who breaks into the most refined retreats with the dreadful information that all men are brothers, and wherever this leveller went on his pale horse it was Father Brown’s trade to follow."

The Sopranos is probably the Rosetta Stone of modern American reaction: it consists of people who bemoan the loss of an imagined past they mainly got from movies, claim victimization based on identity but hate when others do it, and view the people who build the society they prey on as suckers.
