Let’s talk about resistance after a conqueror takes power. Specifically let’s talk about this bendy yellow building, and what it shows us about the moment the Florentine Republic finally fell to its kleptocratic/proto-capitalist banking-fortune Medici conquerors 1/?

Another sketch.
A few people have followed me, which has been a bit surprising considering I have only been reposting various posts! As a small introduction, I am currently studying history and politics, from SEA to Medieval Europe.
I may use this account to post my drawings in the future too, like this PFP.

France has just had a review of healthcare for young trans people and it has come out entirely the opposite to Cass. But then again the personnel involved had not been specifically selected to arrive at a politically-required outcome.

![The most recent international guidelines [12] suggest that GAH should be initiated in transgender adolescents whose gender incongruence has been confirmed according to the criteria outlined in the ICD-11 (Table 1). Additionally, these adolescents should demonstrate sufficient emotional and cognitive maturity to provide informed consent for treatment. Unlike strict age criteria, other factors such as the duration of gender incongruence, medical follow-up history, persistence of transition requests, psychological distress, and the individual's maturity level should be considered when determining the optimal timing for introducing GAH.
In situations where GAH is introduced before Tanner stage 5 (especially when GnRHa has been previously prescribed), suppression can be maintained upon the introduction of GAH to prevent the action of endogenous hormones and the appearance or continued progression of secondary sexual characteristics in the undesired gender.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:d56idxm2oyqwwn2uxnegm2yo/bafkreicxk5xed5no2jm57oz6mzrtrenufehvmqn7ig4cqrgdeuiu52hqwu@jpeg)

A Vancouver neighborhood has created a new way to mitigate flooding. Rainways are landscaped paths that mimic natural streams, with native plants to store rainwater and filter pollutants while providing other neighborhood benefits, such as improved aesthetics. #greeninfrastructure

Ever encountered a yellowish blob like this in a medieval book? It's a drop of candle wax. Yup, books were read at night back then, by candle light. (Owl disapproves. Hoo-hoo did that?)

Writing is not easy. In mid 10th century Florentius, a scribe, had some really good thoughts about it:
"Those who know nothing of writing do not appreciate this work very much. You want to know how hard it is? Your sight grows dim, you hunch, your ribs and belly break 1/ 🧵

Did you know that dogs in ancient Mesopotamia also refused to drop the ball?
According to a Sumerian proverb, “The dog understands ‘Take it!’ It does not understand ‘Put it down!’”
