When he took those first sea snails in his apartment back in 2007, it was just a week after his honeymoon. “My wife was horrified by the by the smell; she almost kicked me out of the house… But I had to carry on,” he says.

He should do everything he can to keep her if she dealt with that and stayed. Decaying shellfish is just about the worst thing to smell.

Geek_King, in The Dog Who Served on Both Sides of the American Revolution

Would you refer to a breed that sheds it’s fur depending the season, a turn-coat?

chatokun,

I read it, backed out, then came back to upvote because I was grinning.

Geek_King,

I’m delighted to make a stranger grin, and not resulting from them seeing me trip while walking.

Declared0978, in Spartans Were Losers
fckreddit, in Rome Didn't Fall When You Think It Did. Here's Why That Fabricated History Matters Today

In India, we have a saying. Almost all kingdoms fall from internal decay than the external invasion.

HipPriest, in When did people stop being drunk all the time?
Pencilnoob, in The Napoléon that Ridley Scott and Hollywood won’t let you see

I never knew Alexander Dumas’ father became the Haitian governer and was a French general, then died in prison. No wonder he wrote about prison escape and revenge.

Video games being historical is making me feel old. That being said there is this really sick Museum of Play everyone should check out if they are ever in western New York state. The arcade there is amazing.

I recently found my Sega MegaDrive/Genesis and got it working again. :)

Tucumano88, in The Most Underrated Era in History (In My Opinion) - The Early Modern Period (1500-1800)
@Tucumano88@lemmy.zip avatar

For me it isn’t underrated at all…in that period of time you have all the subjects that are the base for contemporary society

Blaze,

Interesting! I didn’t know much about it before watching the video, so I guess for a few people at least it makes sense

grue, in The Pursuit of Efficiency and the Science of Steam

That was more interesting than I expected it to be.

This is great, really immersive. I also love how historians say “one more thing I wanna talk about” and there is still half of the video left to enjoy :)

aebletrae, in Why Does the UK Celebrate Guy Fawkes Night?
@aebletrae@hexbear.net avatar

It’s an event that tells an oppressed group to know their place, and reminds everyone that any attempt to turn the tables on the ruling class will result in a showily horrific punishment. What could possibly be more British?
