  1. I was going to hold a "Wicker Man"-type festival this summer and burn an effigy of Trump, but it turned out I can't afford that much hay and wicker. I could manage a Karoline Leavitt, maybe, but I don't think attendance would be high enough. Pete Hegseth would be too dangerous, much too high concentration of ethanol fumes.

    Oh, well.

  4. ending w/him accusing #legislators of seeking to “obtain a most extensive #power over the Minds of the rest of Mankind.” 4yrs later, a #mob angered by unfair taxes…hanged Gov Colden in #effigy, smashed…his coaches, & threw the bits of wood into a huge bonfire….

    Where did these intense feelings about #judicial #independence come from? A few colonists knew the work of the British political #philosopher #JohnLocke or the French essayist #Montesquieu, esp their writings on … #SeparationOfPowers,

  5. Here I am again back in Boston where I started my search for the Tilney family.

    The summer took me to two villages on either side of the Humber in search of this lady’s maternal ancestry. It is possible that this is Margaret the wife of Frederick Tilney.

    Margaret and Frederick had at least one son, whose descendants would go on to greater things (depending on your point of view that is) in the mid-16th century.

    Margaret’s effigy once lay in the church of St John’s in Skirbeck. It is this area, which predates Boston itself, that I find myself this weekend.
