“Best president” my ass you’re not even the best Vice President to assume the office after the president died. We all know who that is….
"I'm 10th President of the United States John Tyler and every day I brag about the fact that I was handed the presidency over after a single month of being VP. By the way: Roscoe Conkling is my babygirl, did you know that I squeal every time I see him mentioned in a book? It's true!"
-- my horrible impersonation of you <3 /p
yes i am john tyler yes i became president (best one ever) because the other president very kindly got himself out of my way so i could do my thang. that last part is solely the person in the walls, and if she does not cease her terrible ways she will be ground into a fine powder. me personally i love my third wife only

Happy Presidents’ Day to those who celebrate. On this day, it’s important to remember those who truly fought to hold their nation together, like me, who signed the Compromise of 1850, and uh. Uhmmmmm uhhhhh. Did other positive things for the nation. Uhmmmmmm uhhhh

Sorry there hasn’t been much #relatable Presidential stuff on here lately guys I’m reading a biography on David Bowie so nothing has sparked inspiration. Haven’t reached the end yet though so we have to see if Reagan shows up

It really makes me sick to see people giving money to penny weeklies when Franklin's expedition STILL has not been found 😭 There are good men out there trapped in unimaginable temperatures and literally all that's needed is a little more funding for another rescue mission yet all you guys seem to care about are your vulgar little stories...

I swear this website has 0 reading comprehension skills. Darwin NEVER claimed we "evolved" from apes like if one of you guys actually bothered to open his new book you'll see all his arguments are backed up by evidence. He actually makes a lot of sense
#sure there's nuance like i don't fully agree with all of it #but his general theory of natural selection seems pretty sound imo

Of course these are the finalists lmao this website is so predictable. Anyway vote Heathcliff if you dont i'm going to assume you're a phrenologist
📖 sapphichelenburns Follow
It's not problematic to acknowledge the fact that Heathcliff was a brute like he literally killed dogs in case you forgot. #rochestersweep
🙈 butchbronte Follow
I love the implication here that Rochester never did anything cruel either. He literally locked his wife in the attic and lied to Jane about it 😭 like that was a pretty significant thing that happened

And? God forbid women do anything

Some days I talk about my fascination with presidents like “none of them can be considered objectively good or bad people that can be judged by our modern understanding of what is or isn’t moral, history is complicated” and then I remember Lincoln lost his son in the beginning of the Civil war and then I’m like “history sometimes isn’t complicated, it’s just sad”

The near cancellation of the Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Contest today is the perfect encapsulation of the current state of our democracy.

Just finished reading the part of David McCullough’s biography on Truman about the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki and there is no part of me that should be acting this introspective at this hour. I’m sitting in bed looking at the sky asking the REAL questions right now.

Presidents’ Day is a fun excuse to dump years of useless knowledge about presidents on everyone around me. Sorry guys but if I don’t get at least one day a year to tell you that James Garfield created mathematical proofs in his free time I’m gonna blow up.

A feeling that hurts a lot once it really settles in is the knowledge you’re never going to see a certain band or preformed you really enjoy. Sure, age of technology and whatever, you can listen to their music, but you’re never going to see this person preform live. It’s the end of an era that never really started.

This whole Elon musk Twitter thing is nonsense. He should just compromise with his employees, like I did by signing the compromise of 1850
