between the great molasses flood and the tea party, boston harbor has to be one of the most beverage harbors
Bold move claiming molasses is a beverage. It's barely a liquid.

My Top 10 Puppet History Songs
In preparation for season 6 of Puppet History I have decided to rank my personal top 10 Puppet History songs in the order of how much of a fucking banger they are and also include my personal favorite Lyrics:
"Hatshepsut" - “And so it’s with respect that we / Remember on occasion / She kicked ass”
“Asmodeus”- “I’ll scare the shit out of nuns, cause it's fun”
“Come on up”- “I saw the whole JFK assassinnation and I know exactly who did it, I can't tell you who but I can tell ya, they DID that. Anyway let's get back on track with some scatting”
“It's the End of History ''- “Cuz there's no stopping what's to come, some shits sketched into the stars calamity's you can't outrun.”
"Gore On The Shore" - Now this samurai’s cuttin me/you down to size / We must be denser than wood to not realize”
"Clip Clop Into The Light"- “I hope my wife died too, so I can see her soon And smooch her spooky horse-ghost lips, And stare into her gorgeous fucked-up oblong horsey pupils As we drift into the vast abyss”
"Pieces of Me"- “And who knows, Gust a wind could blow on by, Lift that pile on upward, Lemme see that pale blue sky”
“You Got the Pox!”- “And You’ll probably die but hey on the bright side, you got a couple new friends who’ll be with you ‘till the end scabs-n-pus”
"French Heads"- “ French HEADS, season ‘em lightly, A bordelaise for Claire, a pinch of pepper on Pierre”
“Stool of Gold”- “A stool of gold A stool-stool of gold”
Special Mentions:
"Snitch On The Rich"- “As discussed You mustn't trust that upper crust Toss their asses on the menu 'Cause it's time to EAT”
"I Spew Goo '' - “And, look, I hate to do this, Just gonna bury yr town rq :( But spewin’ goo’s my truth, sis :)
"Choke For The Gold!"- “I MUST DOUSE MY HELLISH FLAME WITH YOUR SUBSERVIENT SWEAT”
“One hell of a me out of the pieces of you”- “I’m not a surgeon but I’ll try my level best, I’m gonna flay you up and down, leave you bleeding on the ground and make my own Bergara vest”

Thinking about the time I wanted to show my friend my favorite episode of puppet history after talking about it for months with her and trying to get her to watch it and I showed her the Great Molasses Flood and was laughing through the whole thing cause I love that episode and at the end she said "it would've been better if I was drunk" and I went. ok. And then she proceeded to make me watch like 5 of those old rap battles between either historical figures or fictional characters and she kept saying, isn't this so funny, these are so smart and great, they don't make videos like this anymore, and I had to sit there and say wow, and yeah, and that's pretty funny, as if she didn't just shit on my favorite episode from one of my favorite pieces of art, and then force me to watch rap battles with characters from movies I've never seen

January 15th,
1919
The citizens of Boston couldn’t outrun it
History was taking its course
No one could fight it
Not a man,
Not the strength of a horse
There’s no sweetness in this
Just an overwhelming void
Climbing over the townships
Claiming all it’s destroyed
You thought you’d cover it
With a coat of paint
Look at all the desolation
Writhing in desperation
You’ll never be free
It clings
To your skin
Capitalistic sin
The reaper’s toothy grin
Decayed and rotten
Fermented sugars
Spill and boil within
All cos you wanted molasses
All cos you wanted molasses
All cos you wanted molasses
More than a city’s worth
Maybe you should live without sugar for once

Related to today being the anniversary of the Great Molasses Flood, my grandfather was born in Boston in 1932 and claimed that you could still smell molasses in the North End on a hot day through his childhood.

I was not expecting the musical number at the end of Puppet History episode about The Great Molasses Flood to hit me so hard, but I just lost my very young cat and a horse going to heaven is really hitting me in the feels.

Recently I remembered a little...meme? Thing I made a year or two back. Because I was trying to talk to my friends about the great Molasses Flood and they just didn't know what I was talking about.
I was desperate for someone to understand me and my small itty bitty obsession with the Great Molasses Flood
