It’s fascinating to hear the stories of the past but it hurts to see them happening again :,(

You know...its a trade off LOL

Mine is full of lots of books. I like it.

Yep.. I’m sick of them trying to claim that this is nothing new.. since when was a convicted felon, rapist and insurrectionist elected to the WH?

Shalom.

Sounds like a doom scroll…

jeanthejust.bsky.social•116 days ago

Yes, I did that too. I have less of a tendency to weep when all the characters in the tragedy have been dead for 3000 years.

This is the first idea for a “starter pack” that I can really get behind.

jenpaints.bsky.social•116 days ago

Lol. Oh dear. Me too. Add a few puppies and some art, and it'll be OK.

joeyblau.bsky.social•115 days ago

and how did you find these historians I ask....?

paulisci.bsky.social•115 days ago

Mostly through the Starter Packs people have been assembling... Lots of different historical themes depending on interest https://blueskydirectory.com/starter-packs/all
