The American Chopper Meme, with the Moustache man and baseball cap guy saying; "The Mary Rose sailed for 34 years" "No, she sank on her maiden voyage" "She was built in 1511 and sank in 1545! How is that a maiden voyage?" "She had a refit in 1536, so it must have been her maiden voyage after that!" "IT DOESN'T WORK THAT WAY!"

It's time for your monthly reminder that, rather than sinking on her maiden voyage, the Mary Rose had a pretty long career... #34Years

I’ve thought for awhile the 1950s would make an interesting alternative to the usual 1980s Cold War gone-hot scenario 👍👍

Self care tips: Go outside. Touch some grass. Swim in a river. Hug a tree. Realize the tree is actually a portal. Go through the portal into a land where you live in a mushroom and drink soup. Never be heard from again.

Happy birthday to legendary Anglo-Irish weird fiction and fantasy writer Edward John Moreton Drax Plunkett, 18th Baron of Dunsany, (AKA Lord Dunsany) born July 24, 1878.

Peggy asked to be remembered w/ "small donations to local food pantries."

But I also hope you’ll remember that simple acts—even just a nice reply to a tweet—go a long way.

“I appreciate everyone’s kindness all these years,” she wrote in one of her last messages.

I know we felt the same. #ThinMan

Here’s a pic of Peggy. Looks like we’re having lunch at Shapiro’s in Indy. #TCMParty #ThinMan

I’ve seen this movie and it doesn’t end well… “Nuke the site from orbit. Only way to be sure.”

When I first saw this, I thought it was from a classic movie!

Lottie Dod won Wimbledon today in 1887 at age 15. She still has the record as youngest woman to do so. She won four more. Then won the British ladies golf championship, played hockey for England and won a silver in the Olympics at archery.
She served as a nurse in WW1.
