505 years ago, on the 25th of May 1521, Holy Roman Emperor Charles V declared Martin Luther an outlaw through the issuing of the Edict of Worms. Killing Luther was now legal and feeding or housing him was a crime. #otd #history🗃️

85 years ago, on the 10th of May 1941, Nazi Deputy to the Führer Rudolf Hess was discovered at Floors Farm (south of Glasgow, Scotland) by local ploughman David McLean, struggling with a parachute. Hess had attempted to travel to Britain in hopes of negotiating a peace deal. #otd #history 🗃️

The reason Moby Dick is the most American novel ever written is because it is about a violent white man enacting a confusing revenge fantasy against a cheap source of oil.

On tomorrow's date 2 February in 1830 the York Museum Gardens were officially opened. The Yorkshire Philosophical Society itself was formed in 1822. Six years later part of the grounds of St Mary's Abbey were given over to the society. The Yorkshire Museum was built

The image is a print titled View of York by George Adolphus Storey. It depicts a panoramic scene of the city of York, focusing on the area around the York Museum Gardens and St Mary's Abbey ruins.
The artwork is an antique print, specifically a wood-engraved print published in 1858. It provides a historical perspective of the city's landscape and architecture in the mid-19th century.
The foreground features the River Ouse and the ruins of St Mary's Abbey. The large building in the centre is the Yorkshire Museum, which was built within the abbey grounds.

I’ve been poeming about how my nouns keep conversioning to verbs.

Verb Your Enthusiasm

I recall the first time it circumstanced,
this problem that routines with my words –
I was in the kitchen, plating my food,
when my nouns conversioned to verbs.

Friending others with similar troubles,
we workshopped hard at it for days,
as we dialogued in search of solutions,
and flipcharted the hours away.

I can’t stop myself languaging weirdly.
Are they called nerbs or vouns? I’m not sure.
The doctors cannot antidote me,
while to poem provisions no cure.

Now I diarise each time they’re eventing –
whenever I coffee or Youtube or gift.
I’d podium, too – if I ever won anything,
and it weren’t for those medalling kids.

On this date in 1865, in a meeting marked by quiet dignity and mutual respect, Ulysses S. Grant received the surrender of Robert E. Lee at Appomattox, ending the Civil War. "Couldn't even clean your fucking boots, huh?" Lee asked. "The better to kick an old slaver's ass," came Grant's warm reply.
