The Failures of Henry VIII, Guest Post by @JudithArnopp: Tyrants arenāt born, they evolve, just as saints do, their characters are slowly shaped over time. The early Tudor chronicles provide no hint of the embittered man Henry was to become.

Absolutely LOVED the Mary Queen of Scots series. Q: If it was more or less understood that Bothwell abducted and raped her then forced marriage, why did the Confederate Lords turn against her instead of seek to liberate and restore her? They seemed to completely dump her

Beautiful 1860s Victorian butterfly, which was used to store small packets of sewing needles on the underside of the wings. This was a collaboration between a London-based drapers company and a sewing needle manufacturer. On exhibit at Tatter Blue, a Brooklyn textile museum. IG tatterbluelibrary

Walz says Harris "would have been a fantastic president... we wouldn't wake up every day to a bunch of shit on TV. We would wake up to an adult w/ compassion & dignity doing the work, not a manchild crying about whatever is wrong with him. May his fat ankles find something today. Petty as hell."

Listening to TRIH out of order depending on my interests any given day, and the one absolute constant across nearly every episode is a reference to "The Ladybird Books," of which I'd never (as an American) before heard, and now understand they're the only books, ever.

on Henry V. That's all I'll say about that. Other thought - I think Henry 8's charisma helped him overcome the stigma of "son of a usurper," & he has his grandfather Eddie 4 to thank for that.
