Ok, how the duck can you leave out 1) that the Party was hosted by Lord Byron, and 2) they had planned to go outside, but chose to stay in and have a spooky story contest because A VOLCANO BLOTTED OUT THE SUN FOR AN ENTIRE SUMMER!
In case you missed it since it hasn’t gotten much attention in western media, the largest general strike in history at an estimated 250 million people occurred in India yesterday - Jan 8th 2020 - in protest against the Modi government.
Just a slight correction. 250 million workers didn’t go on strike. Unions that represent 250 million people called for protests. Article estimates hundreds of thousands to several million workers went on strike. Still quite impressive, but it’s not 250 million. That’d be insane.
This blog is mostly so I can vent my feelings and share my interests. Other than that, I am nothing special.
If you don't like Left Wing political thought and philosophy, all things related to horror, the supernatural, the grotesque, guns or the strange, then get the fuck out. I just warned you.
