If I were to write a serious history book, it'd probably be about the wife of a famous figure in American history. Every time I read about some Great Man, I always find myself fascinated by his wife there in the background--a hugely vital part of his life, with a front-row seat to all the history connected with him, often not able to engage with it directly but still having a huge impact on the people involved. Her entire life was shaped by whatever career her husband chose, but that doesn't mean she wasn't her own person--with her own thoughts and beliefs and opinions and interests--or that what she was doing wasn't important.

I'd make sure to respect her by keeping the focus, not on what she couldn't do, or what she'd have been able to do in modern times, but what she did do in the times that she lived in, because the things that women did were vital, even if they rarely got the spotlight. I'd want to spotlight it.

#history is awesome #presidential talk #book about frances chesterton my beloved #did it exactly right #you would not believe how thrilled i was when i discovered the obscure book about civil war generals' wives on sale at the used book store #i need to get around to reading it one of these days

Latest in bookbinding: THIS IS HOW YOU LOSE THE TIME WAR, by Amal El-Mohtar and Max Gladstone.

I’ve been wanting to fancy-up a copy of this book since I got my hands on the ARC, way back in 2019, and finally felt brave enough to try it. And I am PLEASED.

All the items on the back cover are things Red and Blue made letters out of. I found the most perfect marble paper for the endpapers. It took me a solid week to design and draw up all the details. And I love it so much (even the lil imperfection on the spine).

Anyway, I'm having fun, I hope you enjoy this, too!

It Spreads is a lovely comic created by the legendary @foxxology and in celebration of its 1 year anniversary they did a dtiys that I absolutely had to participate in!

Go check out the comic if you haven’t! Seriously, it’s a really good read with great art, go read it! (I linked it twice for further emphasis!!)

#ItSpreadsiversary #it spreads fanart #grian fanart #rendog fanart #kaine’s creative oddities #seriously. this comic and the lore Foxx put into it is amazing. The building tension is amazing and the details that you can find when #rereading the comic are great. I know it’s a joke that I’ve been predicting a lot of what happens but it’s because of Foxx’s storytelling #that I even was able to find or notice things. go give Foxx the love and recognition they deserves and not only stick around for the comic #but for the rest of their amazing art as well! they’re extremely talented and I cannot wait to see the awesome stuff they have next in store #Love ya Foxx. You deserve the best! Keep being LEGENDARY as Mr. Mythical himself declared! #yes I will not let you forget that. he said it not me. I’m just here to remind you of that and Ren calling you amazing.

Not all that tiny, but still wonderful on Megs

Oh, that definitely counts as tiny! It's just a matter of what screenshotting tool you use :)

And that is a wonderful expression! Thanks for sharing!

Uncle Scrooge #1 variant cover by Alex Ross.

This cover is everything. Alex Ross captured the magic of Barks' oil paintings... but with gouache!

It's so good to see Disney comics getting revamped Oversea. Feels like americans discovered a whole new world of wonders and started having fun with it. Well done, Marvel! :)

And, I mean, they did not pick anybody to play with it... they chose Jason Aaron. And Alex Ross. And a whole bunch of the best italian Disney artists from Mottura to Pastrovicchio! Cool stuff!

The more I learn about Civil War politics, the more I'm convinced that Lincoln's most impressive and useful leadership trait was that he never let his pride get in the way of doing his job.

Other people in Lincoln's position would have come to Washington with something to prove. They'd have resented the insults and tried to disprove them. They'd have tried to seize power and credit, rejected help, spent a lot of time trying to reach a certain level of respect.

Lincoln's response to, "You're just a backwoods lawyer with no executive experience who makes too many dumb jokes," was pretty much always, "Yeah. And?" He had no interest in petty personal power plays. He had a country to run. There was a war on. It didn't matter what people thought of him so long as the job got done.

He was aware of his personal shortcomings and was always willing to accept advice and help from people who had more knowledge and experience in certain areas. He presided over a chaotic Cabinet full of abrasive personalities who thought they were better and smarter than him, but he kept working with them because they could get the job done. For example: Stanton was absolutely horrible to him when they were both working as lawyers. Just incredibly mean on a personal level. But when Lincoln needed someone to replace Cameron, he swallowed his pride and appointed Stanton as Secretary of War, where Stanton proceeded to be mean to everyone in the world, but he whipped that department into shape and kept it running efficiently through a very chaotic war. Pretty much no one except Lincoln would have been able to put up with that. He could put up with people who were personally difficult if they could do the job he needed them to do--which he was only able to do because his own ego didn't get in the way.

Lincoln's example is a prime demonstration of how humility isn't underrating yourself--it's being so secure in your own abilities and identity that you don't need to attack anyone or defend yourself to prove your worth. He knew his shortcomings, but he also knew his strengths. He was willing to give other people credit for successes and take blame upon himself for failures if it kept things running smoothly. He was secure enough in his own power that he could deal generously--but firmly--with people who tried to undermine him. In a city full of huge egos, in a profession that rewards puffed-up pride, that levelheaded humility is an extremely rare trait--which is what made it so impressive and effective.

#history is awesome #presidential talk #so i went to a teeny backwater thrift store today #their tiny history book section just happened to have an old lincoln biography #i opened to the page about the cabinet #which describes the situation like 'seward was calling himself premier and lording it over everyone' #'blair was causing problems everywhere' #'welles was insulting everyone in his diary and especially hated stanton grant and seward' #'and stanton hated absolutely everyone in the whole wide world' #and as i was reading this i was internally kicking my legs with excitement and cackling with glee because this is the good stuff #i don't know why but i love these horrible petty men #they're like a bunch of raccoons fighting over territory in a dumpster fire it's so great #i read the whole chapter right there in the store #and it impressed upon me yet again how impressive lincoln was to put up with all these guys #(the writer was a bit simplistic and made a lot of these guys come off as worse than they were) #(like he made seward sound like a complete incompetent when he was a pretty good secretary of state) #(he had some grandiose ideas but the man deserves a lot of credit for keeping england out of the war) #(but for a one-chapter summary of these guys it wasn't exactly wrong and it was a ton of fun) #i very much did not want another book especially another american history book #but it was only fifty cents and i have a pouch full of spare change #and the writer's style was so much fun that i decided to take the book with me #i don't plan to read the whole thing (i'm sick of lincoln bios) but it's fun to dip into for things like this #and i had to talk to you about it

Is it okay to ask why you gotta pack stuff? Are u moving?

Yes and yes! I'm moving into a van! This is a personal choice and I'm not doing it because I have to! I've been wanting to do it for a very long time but I've been too scared! But I'm finally doing it yay!! I'm gonna travel around and figure out where I want to set up my life! I've saved up a TON of money so I'll be able to find a place wherever I am if I need!

For the past few months I've been working on my van. I got wood flooring down yay! Then I gave up building everything! So I'm getting a cot and some basic storage stuff! If anyone's interested, I'll make a post with pictures of the final set up!

#big scary decision but man am i ready to move out #my momma is being super awesome and letting me store my stuff at her place! #most of my stuff is going to my siblings or given away! #i dont really have much but there isn't a lot of space in my van for all of it #ren won't shut up
