Playwright J.M. Barrie, creator of "Peter Pan." The play opened in 1904 in London's West End to great success. When he died in 1937, he left the rights to a children's hospital in London. That money still helps sick children today. ❤️

A vocal minority in Parliament opposed war with America, seeing it as Fratricide that would harm the empire.

The king, meanwhile, proposed deporting captured Americans to India, where they needed white settlers. 🤔

If a woman is flashing this hand signal, she needs help escaping from a domestic violence situation.

Note identifying information about the man and call 911 immediately. Acknowledge her plight verbally or non-verbally if it can be done safely, so she knows help is on the way.

Not looking forward to this nor'easter. They move slower than hurricanes, guaranteeing prolonged wind & major flooding.
If this were winter we'd be looking at 2-3 feet of snow.

The American invasion of Canada in 1775 was an attempt to seize the Province of Quebec and convince French-Canadians to join the fight against Great Britain.
It was a DISASTER. We got our asses whooped and Canadians said "fuck off, we're not fighting anybody" (in French).

Only if Canadian law enforcement can make "cross-border" arrests of high level officials in Washington to stand trial at the Hague...then I'm all for it.
