Folklore is so much a part of our collective culture that it cannot help but spill out everywhere. It tumbles out of pub signs, street names, graffiti spat from spray cans. Manifests as wondrous acts of knitting. It is an essential element of us. – Dr. M. Benn #FolkloreSunday

Illustration of a tea party picnic; an owl, hedgehog, mouse, rabbit and squirrel are sat on toadstools around a stump table covered with cloth and tea cups and plates, the squirrel is pouring from a teapot, the rabbit is drinking tea, a tortoise is stood on the grass, a butterfly can be seen above them, trees behind them, blue cloudy sky in distance.
Looking forward to Spring…

Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again.

The horse is placed so centrally in folklore because our relationship to it has always been a defining cultural feature. Its ghosts are many. They pull spectral corpse carts, are steeds in phantom battles. A network of invisible clip-clopping down a thousand lanes. – Dr. M. Benn #FolkloreThursday

If Jeff Bezos could afford to spend $75 million on the Melania movie & $500 million for a yacht to sail off to his $55 million wedding to give his wife a $5 million ring, please don't tell me he needed to fire one-third of the Washington Post staff.

Screenshot of a map and table listing ICE warehouse purchase data.
🚨 New: We built a visual tracker of the warehouses ICE is targeting across the US.
Working off an idea from @actualkatherine.bsky.social, we’ve mapped active searches, canceled deals, and linked state property records.

Illustration by Gustave Dore of the head of a beautiful woman flying from her body. Her hands are held as if in prayer and glow emanates from her neck. A sword blade can be seen: the head has just been struck from her body.
St Winefride had her head lopped off by a brutal prince annoyed she'd rejected his advances. Where the head fell, a spring of healing water emerged. Later the holy well at Holywell, Flintshire, was built round it. Winefride's uncle, St Beuno, kindly put her head back on again.
