Language of Flowers: Houstonia
In the language of flowers, every day has its own designated flower. Today, November 18, that flower is Houstonia, which signifies contentment. Image from Wikipedia. Houstonia caerulea, also known as azure bluet and Quaker ladies, is native to the eastern United States and Canada.

Another way Carpe Jugulum could've gone:
Oh, but boba's way too cutesy! Granny can't be having with it! That's where you're wrong. Boba is exactly the kind of thing somebody who takes tea with ten sugars and a jug of milk would drink. Also, the presence of a straw means there will be vampiric-sounding slurping.
Extra cursed Nanny reaction under cut:

lecturer pulling up a slide entitled 'judeo-christian tradition' and not only is it full of stuff about original sin etc but we're also literally talking about a period in which jews were exiled from england. another day on this earth
#then in the workshop looking at a ballad of like 'the lady's fall' (self explanatory)#this gay guy goes haha how did religion get to this lol its so stupid#me and the quaker lesbian both folk musicians evicerated him. solidarity is so beautiful#like respectfully eviscerated. but it was so dumb to say#like people in the 16th century did not draw a line between religious morals/knowledge and other morals/knowledge anyway#but the song literally like does not mention sin or jesus or afterlife or anything#theres like explicitly religious moral ballads from the same time and this is literally just about the shame of a baby being born out of#wedlock which is 100&% a cultural thing sorry#like within the narrative it basically would have been fine if the baby daddy ended up marrying her#theres like no xtian tropes in it fr i was like very surprised by how not christian it was

BUT I HAD A BAG SALAD AND A PINT OF CHUNKY MONKEY BEN AND JERRY'S WHEN I GOT TO TOWN!!!!!#tag journal#trail posting#colorado trail#CT#oh you can see pom pom if you zoom in on the first pic. she was actually doing the whole CDT in sections#she told me a whole lot of drama abt her journey and some other girls she was hiking with#middle aged and old women dirtbags on long distance trails youre the coolest#i wanna be just like you when i grow up. freaks (honorific)

Notable transgender people from history
Here's the list I put together for when people on non-trans subreddits claim we didn't exist until recently:
Ashurbanipal (669-631BCE) - King of the Neo-Assryian empire, who according to Diodorus Siculus is reported to have dressed, behaved, and socialized as a woman.
Elagabalus (204-222) - Roman Emperor who preferred to be called a lady and not a lord, presented as a woman, called herself her lover's queen and wife, and offered vast sums of money to any doctor able to make her anatomically female.
Kalonymus ben Kalonymus (1286-1328) - French Jewish philosopher who wrote poetry about longing to be a woman.
Eleanor Rykener (14th century) - trans woman in London who was questioned under charges of sex work
[Thomas(ine) Hall](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomas(ine)_Hall) - (1603-unknown) - English servant in colonial Virginia who alternated between presenting as a woman and presenting as a man, before a court ruled that they were both a man and a woman simultaneously, and were required to wear both men's and women's clothing simultaneously.
Chevalier d'Eon (1728-1810) - French diplomat, spy, freemason, and soldier who fought in the Seven Years' War, who transitioned at the age of 49 and lived the remaining 33 years of her life as a woman.
Public Universal Friend (1752-1819) - Quaker religious leader in revolutionary era America who identified and lived as androgynous and genderless.
Surgeon James Barry (1789-1865) - Trans man and military surgeon in the British army.
Berel - a Jewish trans man who transitioned in a shtetel in Ukraine in the 1800's, and whose story was shared with the Jewish Daily Forward in a 1930 letter to the editor by Yeshaye Kotofsky, a Jewish immigrant in Brooklyn who knew Berel
Mary Jones (1803-unknown) - trans woman in New York whose 1836 trial for stealing a man's wallet received much public attention
Albert Cashier (1843-1915) - Trans man who served in the US Civil War.

Lili Elbe (1882-1931) - Trans woman who underwent surgery in 1930 with Dr. Magnus Hirschfeld, who ran one of the first dedicated medical facilities for trans patients.
Karl M. Baer (1885-1956) - Trans man who underwent reconstructive surgery (the details of which are not known) in 1906, and was legally recognized as male in Germany in 1907.
Dr. Alan Hart (1890-1962) - Groundbreaking radiologist who pioneered the use of x-ray photography in tuberculosis detection, and in 1917 he became one of the first trans men to undergo hysterectomy and gonadectomy in the US.
[Louise Lawrence](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Louise_Lawrence_(activist)) (1912–1976) - trans activist, artist, writer and lecturer, who transitioned in the early 1940's. She struck up a correspondence with the groundbreaking sexologist Dr. Alfred Kinsey as he worked to understand sex and gender in a more expansive way. She wrote up life histories of her acquaintances for Kinsey, encouraged peers to do interviews with him, and sent him a collection of newspaper clippings, photographs, personal correspondences, etc.

1700s WOMEN - LOOKBOOK (1740 to 1769)
Ooooo boy, have I been looking forward to putting this lookbook together! Fashion in the middle 18th century saw the absolute peak in ostentatious excess. Dress historian Aileen Ribeiro categorises this period as "the triumph of rococo". Hoops, or paniers as they were known, were at their very widest to support the outrageously sized gowns of the aristocracy. Lace, bows and feathers were the trimmings de jour.

kiran handweavers informal thesis on the 4 general naming conventions for streets in halifax and dartmouth, as follows:
1. Upper Street, Lower Street, North Street, South Street, Spring Garden Street (has gardens in the spring), Water St (near water), First St, Second St, Third St and so on
2. Dead white settler names ranging from 'old lady who ran the first orphanage' to 'name of boat that brought a lot of settlers' to 'guy who literally killed hundreds of people for money and power in 1832'
2a. Quaker shit like Jubilee St, Bliss St
2b. The most Celtic looking word you've ever seen west of the Emerald Isle
3. Names related to Maroon communities who escaped slavery in the West Indies as well as Africans who escaped bondage in the US and built the Afro-Nova Scotian community, and their Descendents (ex. Africville)
3a. Sometimes this overlaps with 2b, due to the presence of Irish and Scottish slaveowners and landlords in the Americas
4. Indigenous names and words, typically some variation of 'Micmac' (Mi'kmaq) including a shopping mall
