A great read!

'History is filled with examples of people changing genders or living between genders'

I recently found out about Margery/John Young who practiced medicine and who had two wives. Their story was posthumously related in The Tatler in September 1710 (attached). #LGBTplusHM25 #queer 🌈🎓🗃️
Front page of The Tatler, 16-19 September 1710. A letter relating the story of Margery/John Young is introduced: 'IT is one of the Designs of this Paper to transmit to Posterity an Account of every Thing that is monstrous in my own Times. For this Reason I shall here publish to the World the Life of a Person who was neither Man nor Woman, as written by one of my ingenious Correspondents, who seems to have imitated Plutach in that multifarious Erudition, and those occasional Differtation, which he has wrought into the Body of his History. The Life I am putting out, is that of Margery, alias John Young, commonly known by the Name of Dr. Young, who (as the Town very well knows) was a Woman that practised Physick in Man's Clothes, and after having had Two Wives and several Children, died about a Month since.' Second page in which the letter is concluded.

Hitler’s first objective was the annexation of Austria. On July 11, 1936, a so-called gentlemen’s agreement between Germany and Austria, used by the German government to pressure Vienna. The ‘Anschluss’ took place March 11-13, 1938, first of his aggressive territorial expansions. #history🗃️ repeats.

Look. I don’t like having to light the beacons of Minus Tirith every morning either. But wars don’t start with the first dropped bomb. They start right here, right now. Paralyze US fed institutions, seize economy, threaten all foreign relations, sow chaos—And:
