  1. The non-Bee group in long-term stasis are known as "Man" by Bee and coded as "9s" while they code themselves as "10s"

    This is punned to "10" issued at a "beauty pageant" and is therefore associated with #DonaldTrump #CharlesII #AbrahamLincoln male soul of #LambdaScorpii aka #Shaula the "Black Hole" star of #Jesus #StephenHawking aka "Golden Gate" but this is "mirrored" and hence becomes the "box" or "Silver Gate" (vagina) hence the "01" joke (people who "rowed" are "winners" and claim to be 7s)

  3. #CharlesII returned to England #OnThisDay in 1660.

    In 1659 the Restoration seemed impossible. It might not have occurred at all but for the forgotten intervention of a blacksmith’s daughter.

  12. #CharlesII, the #King of #Spain in the late 1600s, is one of my favorites for just how egregious it is.

    The dude's mother married her mother's brother, and even her parents were cousins, and their parents were cousins, and it all becomes this giant circle instead of a tree. You can tell just by looking at the dude how screwed up his genetics are: the human genome is resilient to some level of inbreeding, but it never stood a chance against this kind of incest cult.

  18. The King’s Health - a political song from the reign of Charles II.

    It's sung to the tune of Farrinel's Ground, also known as La Follia. This ground, used as a base for divisions (variations) for both instruments and voices, was popular throughout the early modern period.

    Written in the early 1680s, at the time of the Popish Plot, the song praises the King and the Duke of York (the future James II), encouraging everyone to drink to their health. It is virulently anti-Catholic and anti-Whig.

  26. In an age where much wealth was held in portable objects, the medieval and Tudor kings housed their jewels, plate and other valuables in jewel houses within their palaces. In Issue 04, Dr Nicola Tallis looks at those jewel houses in which Henry VII and Henry VIII stored their treasures.

  28. James Taaffe played a key role in the #Remonstrance affair (the Remonstrance was a controversial expression of loyalty towards #CharlesII drawn up by #PeterWalsh aimed at gaining #toleration for Catholics.)

    Taaffe was sent to Ireland to restore unity to the Irish church by explicitly denouncing Walsh and his followers on the pope's behalf. He pretended he had powers from the Pope he did not have, and it all went downhill from there.
