I didn’t manage to cosplay Richard iii (the version of Richard in Requiem of the Rose King) to pay homage upon the place his head was displayed as a rebel and traitor within his own home, York, fuelled with obscene rumours to the point where it was said he was in his parents womb for 2 years and a demonic monster over his body, and it was believed, over trying to rule during the War of the Roses.
Amongst downfalls, rumours are spread to ready a more secure a more loved position and angelic assumed appearance for the ones taking over as not to allow for a mutiny essentially and uproar against the new ones replacing them to take over, and cover ups to present a new line as Good, and only Good for the people.
It is said he obviously had his wrongs, but comparably it was better to a lot during that time of who was veering for power.
There’s a lot of false poison placed as fact, much which was never proved, and much which was just obvious bull now we look at it these days, and this was done to remove the return of certain families during War which threatened those who wanted to have their status.
The utmost end point is to secure a throne, and people will do absolutely anything.
This place is known as the Micklegate Bar, many people have passed beneath it and many heads have been presented upon it, it is the southern entrance to York.
I made it here, and I’m glad. A rich piece of history of a truly awful time upon these islands.

This First World War memorial designed by Lutyens is located in the War Memorial Gardens on the banks of the River Ouse in York. Unveiled in 1925, the memorial faced many delays & objections related to its design and placement. Read more here:

Today I learned about the Totally Kid Carousel in Harlem NY.
Artist Milo Mottola was inspired by the rush of winning an art contest as a child and wanted to give children in the community that feeling of pride and accomplishment in an even bigger way. Each child whose drawing was chosen for use in the carousel received a $50 savings bond (the Prize the artist won as a child) as well as free rides FOR LIFE!

Everyone should follow what's happening at Columbia right now. This is the largest protest there since 1968, and the admin just stripped several students of healthcare and housing.
The NYPD arrested over 108 students camping on the South Lawn yesterday. Now, thousands have joined the demonstration. As Israel prepares to commit genocide, Palestinian and Jewish students are taking the lead in protesting institutional complicity around the world.
