Happy 266th Birthday #Pittsburgh

History shows us that this is true…

A failed president who incited a coup attempt and then was found liable of sexual assault and then was convicted of felonies won the popular vote and electoral college. I still haven’t seen a satisfactory explanation. Probably never will.

Comic by Kyle Bravo "I've had a few days to calm down and process things and I've come to the conclusion that I was wrong to have had faith in humanity."

I hate when they take away things you were just starting to really enjoy, like your favorite TV show or democracy.

GRO BMD indexes and cheaper PDF and digital certificate options This post describes the new birth and death indexes launched by the GRO in 2016 and the cheaper copies of certificates available in pdf and digital form.

I sometimes am shocked to hear that not everyone knows about the GRO’s own birth and death indexes and cheaper digital certificate copies for England and Wales. Here’s some more detail. Don’t pay more than you need to!

A tweet from Dr. Oz in which he claims that a person's astrological sign can reveal "a great deal about [their] health."

With Dr. Mehmet Oz pegged to head the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, it's a good time to remind people that he once said this 👇

As a medical historian, I can say that this is quite literally medieval.

Mr. Horace Walpole, writing to the Rev. Mr. Cole, 5th June 1775 says, "People don't know how entertaining a study it (genealogy) is. Who begot whom is a most amusing kind of hunting; one recovers a grandfather instead of breaking one's own neck - and then one grows so pious to the memory of a thousand persons one never heard of before." - R. Murdoch Lawrance

A lovely #genealogy quote found in "Aberdeen Journal Notes and Queries, Volume III, 1910".

POLIO IS CONQUERED newspaper headline

Sigh.

Must be a lost Dylan Thomas poem..

Close up of banjo with “This machine surrounds hate and forces it to surrender” written on it.

This is Pete Seeger’s banjo at the Bluegrass Hall of Fame Museum. He was inspired by Woody Guthrie, who had a label on his guitar reading “This machine kills fascists.” May the spirit of both these men guide us now.

Watching Pittsburgh wake up from the Mr. Rogers statue on the North Shore never gets old for me. You can hear Fred on the speakers telling stories, and it’s just so relaxing. View ain’t bad either.

Woody Guthrie with his guitar that says "this machine kills fascists"

We arm ourselves with our guitars, computers, pens, paintbrushes, cameras, we make our art and we make ol' Woody Guthrie proud.
