There's this crazy detailed accounting book from the first few years of Spanish Puerto Rico with tons of juicy stuff in it, like 'illegal' Portuguese merchant ships trading with Indigenous people or Colombus' fails keeping indigenous slaves, and I think someone is going to photograph it for me.

I like putting on a button up shirt to go out and I still fly in comfy clothes if it’s a long flight. The +1 to charisma is not worth the -2 to comfort

If you are interested in a primary source for the beginning of next semester, may I recommend the earliest recorded indigenous description of Appalachia, translated by yours truly?

I'm working on a published version and would love any feedback you have as well.
