The Taliban has now banned windows in Afghanistan so women can't be seen.
The Taliban also banned women from education, employment, and parks and other public places. It also banned women from being doctors and male doctors from treating women, leaving women without any healthcare. #opdeatheaters

Many of you have asked to know more about the 13 Yule Lads. I will, of course, oblige.
Stekkjastaur, the first one, came last night. He likes to sneak into the sheep shed and drink the milk from the ewes, but he has a lot of trouble doing so because both of his legs are stiff and unbendy.

The Angel of Grief is among the most poignant memorials in Rome's Non-Catholic Cemetery. Created by American sculptor William Wetmore Story in 1894 in memory of his wife Emelyn, he said: “She was my stay, my joy, my help in all things.” A year later he joined her in the tomb.

Today I learnt that “mortgage” comes from the Old French mort (dead) and gage (pledge). The word literally translates to "dead pledge” because you will only be free of it once you’re dead.
Amazing.

That’s not trolling the UK govt anymore - that’s straight up campaigning for a political party in a foreign country.
It’s serious.

Yesterday I got to lay eyes on the one and only Codex Regius Poetic Edda.
This little book is by far the most valuable book in Iceland, and arguably for the whole of Northern Europe. It was written during the 1270s and it is the sole source of so much that we know about Norse Mythology.
