Fun fact: Samuel Clemens, better known as Mark Twain was born November 30, 1835, in Florida, Missouri. That same day Halley's Comet could be seen lighting up the night sky, two weeks after the perihelion. In 1909 Mark Twain commented, "I came in with Halley's Comet in 1835. It is coming again next year, and I expect to go out with it. It will be the greatest disappointment of my life if I don't go out with Halley's Comet. The Almighty has said, with no doubt: 'Now here are these unaccountable freaks; they came in together, they must go out together.'" Twain would pass away on April 21, 1910, in Stormfield, Redding, Connecticut, one day after Haley's comet reached its perihelion.

Richard’s wife, Anne, died in March 1485. According to the Crowland Chronicler, Richard was forced to deny to his council that he had poisoned her to marry his niece, Elizabeth. This extraordinary event gives an insight into how people thought of Richard; he seems to have been truly heartbroken by his wife’s death, but his previous behaviour evidently meant that his contemporaries believed he was capable of anything.

PH GOVERNMENT CONTINUES ATTEMPTS TO DESTROY FREEDOM OF SPEECH AND RIGHT TO INFORMATION UNDER MARCOS PRESIDENCY
Tumblr media
Rappler is a digital media company that was founded by Maria Ressa, a Nobel Peace Prize Laureate. Maria Ressa is a hero that has fought and continues to fight for the Philippines despite everything and everyone who's tried to put her and her team down.
She was a lead investigative journalist in CNN Southeast Asia who was critical of Rodrigo Duterte's "War on Drugs". She was also falsely accused of cyber libel and tax evasion on several accounts, because our government has been repeatedly trying to shut her down and control information, the same government that is led by a man who LIES AND REFUSES TO PAY 203 BILLION IN ESTATE TAX DEBT. THE SAME GOVERNMENT THAT REFUSES TO PUT IMELDA MARCOS IN JAIL BUT WILL HAPPILY JAIL A STARVING 70+ YR OLD MAN FOR STEALING A FRUIT.
Rappler is not the first victim of this, and it will not be the last. Please please please share what is happening in the Philippines, this could happen in your country one day.

Today in 1897 Elva Zona Heaster is found dead in Greenbrier County, West Virginia. The resulting murder trial would be the only time in U.S. history where the alleged testimony of a ghost helped secure the conviction. What?! In October 1896, Zona met Erasmus Stribbling Trout Shue, and they married shortly after. The initial result of death was from childbirth and she would be buried the next day. Zona's mother, Mary Jane Heaster claimed her daughter's ghost came to her and told her that Erasmus had murdered her. After this event, Mary visited the local prosecutor, and whether he believed the ghost story or not, he reopened the case. It was determined that a complete examination of the body was not made and an exhumation was ordered. The second autopsy found Zona's neck broken, and her throat had finger marks. Shue was found guilty on July 11, 1897, and sentenced to life in prison. Many people in the community believed the ghost story, however "the Greenbrier ghost was never mentioned by the prosecution and played no part in the case against Shue." Believe it, or don't history is fascinating.
