Look I love a Spooky Edinburgh Moodboard as much as the next person but I do wonder whether the people who tag pictures of St Giles and the General Assembly Hall as "witchy” or dark academia aesthetic have any idea what they’re looking at

#Edinburgh #Look nothing says witchy like Presbyterianism you heard it here first folks #Keep doing it actually maybe we could power Scotland by hooking up a generator to the graves of hardline seventeenth century ministers #as they proceed to spin in their graves faster than the Mallard's wheels #This would be delightful #Interesting how history plays out for all their attempts to make Scotland a covenanted nation we're probably the most secular bit of the UK #And a lot of the tourists who come to Edinburgh don't even seem to know what denomination the Church of Scotland is #Now I'm mildly inclined towards the church myself but thank god it's modernised considerably even in the last 50 year #Though it is difficult to try to explain to people what an important force Presbyterianism was in Scottish history when it's barely visible #Auld Reekie #Athens of the North #To be fair though the whole Presbyterian Schtick probably DID influence a lot of Scotland's 'witchy' aesthetic #Beyond the whole horrendous persecution of the early modern period #Certainly if St Giles had remained a Catholic church I think it would have had a distinctly different vibe #Though it's not exactly the best example of a Presbyterian church given its Victorian refurbishment #Little bare parish churches with dark pews and scratched flagstone floors and whitewashed walls and a kirkyard full of odd symbols #Lovely places #Terrible places #The power of the Kirk was immense and it's so strange that we've almost entirely shrugged it off #Maybe Chris Guthrie was right

Y’all I have a crippling pizza addiction, so I’m gonna review pizza I eat.

Ok first:

•Place? Village Pizza on Market Street, Athens, AL (my hometown!!)

• Pizza? 8” Pepperoni, regular crust, and also cheese sticks.

• Fav part? The garlic sauce is literally to die for.

•How much did I spend? $45.29 (me and my bf’s food)

•Rating? 9/10. It’s a tad bit expensive for what you get, but it goes so crazy. Y’all, they were super busy today bc tomorrow is St. Patrick’s, but it was still great.🍕🍕🍕

#OTD in 1767 – Birth of United Irishman, Thomas Paliser Russell, in Kilshanick, Co Cork.

Although born in the Rebel County, he is now identified in the popular imagination of Co Down and elsewhere as “The man from God Knows Where”, from the ballad which recalls his charismatic but doomed efforts to raise the county in support of Robert Emmet’s rebellion of 1803. Thomas Russell joined the British army in 1783 and served in India. He returned to Ireland in 1786 and commenced studies in…
