I’ll try it! My great aunt thinks it’s Saint Francis because her mom was really into him, so that’s the best guess we’ve got so far.

Hard pass on that gig. Sometimes I like to switch the subject to something so unhinged or boring that it throws them off.

Can anyone help with a mystery? This was given to me in high school and was my great grandmothers. Supposedly there are photos of her wearing it in the 30s. Who is the saint? #catholic #antique #jewelry

Historians and history fans of Bluesky, please share your favourite (non-fiction) historical work that falls outside of your normal field of interest, but that has inspired you and shaped your approach to history nonetheless!

I'll start - see thread below.

In addition to attempting to paint, I’ve been trying out crochet! I am mildly embarrased at how long it took me to make this little head scarf. #crochet

Well never have I ever donated to a political campaign but Lindsey Dougherty HD-75 just came to my house canvasing (on foot) and acted like a totally normal person and my GOD I want some normal people in congress so bad!

First time painting anything. There’s some debate as to whether it’s a pine cone or pineapple. If you squint and stand back, it’s cute. #art #painting

Starting the year strong with Why We Believe by Agustin Fuentes. β€œBelief is the most prominent, promising, and dangerous capacity that humanity has evolved.”

My New Year’s resolution is to get back to reading more. I hope to read ~2 books per month. Since I don’t know what to do with this account, I think I’ll post quotes as I go.
