I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?

“I NEVER, NEVER spent such an evening! MY DEAREST, DEAR Albert sat on a footstool by my side, and his excessive love and affection gave me feelings of heavenly love and happiness I never could have hoped to have felt before. He clasped me in his arms, and we kissed each other again and again! His beauty, his sweetness and gentleness, – really how can I ever be thankful enough to have such a Husband! Oh! This was the happiest day of my life!”

BREADS

It’s called the “calyx”. It’s where the flower, part of the plant’s genitals, used to be. Fruits are themselves the enlarged ovaries of a plant.

Medlars have an extremely prominent calyx. Shakespeare referenced medlars in multiple jokes.



Romeo and Juliet, Act II, scene 1

Place: A lane by the wall of Capulet’s orchard.

Speaker: Mercutio

If love be blind, love cannot hit the mark.
Now will he sit under a medlar tree,
And wish his mistress were that kind of fruit
As maids call medlars, when they laugh alone.
Romeo, that she were, O, that she were
An open et caetera, thou a poperin pear!
Romeo, good night: I'll to my truckle-bed;
This field-bed is too cold for me to sleep:
Come, shall we go?

It's weird how the Brits still hold a deep and abiding loathing of Thatcher while the US as pretty much let Reagan off the hook. He's actually the worst president.

Many, many brits would happily go to the barricades defending and praising Thatcher my dude.

Yes I'm aware of the existence of Tories but there isn't a general animosity among Americans towards Reagan until you start to get fairly left. I feel like a centre-left Brit is more likely to hate Thatcher than a center-left American is to hate Reagan, even though they were as bad as one another.

Does Thatcher routinely make lists of "top 10 PMs"? Because Reagan makes top 10 presidents lists all the time
