THE CULPER RING

Look, I had to trade some goods. Caleb Brewster is running a shop out of his whale boat on Devil's Belt. I had to trade with him. Caleb? You saw him? How is he? He's the same as ever. He's unshaven, he's insane. I saw Ben Tallmadge, too. What? You saw him? They were together? No, no. Ben is a... he's a Connecticut Dragoon now. He's got a shiny helmet and all. He tried to recruit me for a secret mission. Against the British? Don't worry, I won't do it. Why not? What are you waiting for? What more do they need to take from us?

TURN “I Know The End”

Every good fandom needs an honorary ’i know the end’ edit that’s just how it works. Please go ahead and direct all hate to @tallmadgeandtea it was her idea I am guiltless (kidding ofc). I fear I will be getting jail time for this and having my editing privileges revoked. But I simply had to do what must be done.

Please watch until the end. I spent my entire spring break working on this and nearly caused my phone to overheat.

Alright, guys! I got another awesome discovery to post (courtesy of my cousin...again)!

My cousin stayed at the Three Village Inn in Stony Brook. We actually drove past it in 2017 when I visited Setauket, but I never went inside. So my cousin just recently was staying there and sent me pics...the cottages are all named after members of the Culper Spy Ring!!!

She made sure to send me a pic of the Tallmadge cottages sign XD

But anyway, I thought this was too cute NOT to share. I want to stay here so badly! The pictures on Google of the place are beautiful! Have any of you fine Tumblr folk stayed here before?

All i can say is that Turn: Washington's Spies is one of the BEST historical dramas I've ever watched. I loved every single episode of it. The characters, the ambientations, the writing, the soundtrack. Perfect. Just Perfect.

(well, expect for Anna and Abe's drama: i've found it unbearable, even when they already had such amazing patners like Mary Woodhull and Selah Strong)

Simcoe: I met a dumbass today. Awful.

Caleb: You looked in a mirror?

Simcoe: Someday you will have to answer for your actions and the gods may not be so merciful.

Controversial (?) TURN opinions I have posted before elsewhere, episode whatever:

Caleb Brewster has the most consistent and solid moral compass in the show, fight me about it.

#turn amc #caleb brewster #also feel like among the main crew of culpers caleb was second only to anna in getting shafted by the narrative #but that's another post

I miss writing about the Culper Ring so much, I miss being totally immersed in the American Revolution. I just need to know more, to write more, to get lost over and over again in a time that fascinates me like no others.

Did Abe really just beg Robert Townsend to join the Culper Ring by whisper screaming please and using the watery puppy dog eyes I can’t

A little while ago I did this semester-long project focusing on the culper ring which had me trying to find primary sources that would be useful. One of the sources that I found was a letter from Charles Scott to George Washington and it's actually the funniest thing I found during the entire research part.

In the letter, Scott says that he forwarded a letter to Washington from a man named John Bolton, who was recommended to him by Benjamin Tallmadge… I’m sure you can see the irony here.

National Archives (where I found it) goes on to say that Scott more than likely meant to use the name Samuel Culper, but it’s actually way more funny he used Tallmadge’s alias instead. Just imagine Tallmadge indirectly hyping himself up to Scott like “this guy’s so smart you can totally trust him” as he’s just referring to himself.

i may not be able to make my own polls (yet 🤞) but i can still make memes about other people's polls

i had to use an outdated screenshot tho because someone RUINED MY JOKE by voting for abe, so we're just going to pretend he's still at 0% (where he deserves to be let's be honest)
