Same game that has you go to Mount Vernon, which is in the Hudson River Valley for reasons, and assassinate George Washington’s brother Lawrence. If I win the lottery I will personally finance a AAA remake so many missed opportunities.
I will never get over this
If they had maybe they would have taken Quebec, just saying
Now we’re cookin with gas
Don’t invade Quebec, take Halifax from the landward side, plz hire me George Washington for more great battle tips
My middle name is Lunn but I accept this as some kind of perverse Lund Washington thing
Secret third thing. He’s broadly representative of the white Anglo population of the colony during the AmRev and to me represents a road not traveled — given how things panned out he’s prob a New Englander but I can easily imagine a timeline where he’s the most Nova Scotian guy of all time.
My favorite thing in the recent season is that one of the central plot points is “Reacher meets an even LARGER man”
Ahahahahahahahaha
The show Reacher is fun because it’s like Littlest Hobo but instead of a dog it’s a very large man who does extrajudicial murder
I’m not a good sports fan but I love to see Philly win, GO BIRDS
Obsessed with metro rewind (although I wish it also somehow too into account my heavy Fairfax connector bus use too!)
Sorry I was late to the meeting I was reading about camel evolution
Coming home after a really lovely work trip to Copenhagen (which I will post more about later) but most importantly I have learned that the company that made the vile 10% beer my friends and I drank in college also makes the most popular soft drink in Denmark

Having a president was weird! No one else had one! What even is a president anyway! Listen to find out.
The newest podcast from the George Washington Podcast network has dropped! Inventing the Presidency tells the story of George Washington’s presidential career, emphasizing the ways in which he was both president and precedent (tm tm tm).

I just suggested that Fahrenheit is best understood as the lifespan of George Washington (32 being freezing and anything above 99 being inhumanely hot) and my colleagues seem confused for some strange reason.
A crucial thing to understand about my relationship to the holidays is growing up we only had 2 xmas albums: a 3 CD set mom bought at Costco (3rd CD was Gregorian chant), and A Very Rosie Christmas Part 2. Join me in celebration with this classic hymn.
The last of my three-talk series on all-star 1750s maps is today at noon ET! Join to hear me chat about the Mitchell map—the Google map of the late 18th century—and why you shouldn’t trust botanists with major treaty negotiations www.youtube.com/live/FNrqXsC...
I keep accidentally introducing people to 45 year old teen bio hacker Bryan Johnson and I’m so, so sorry
Old law and order I am trying to not be at work leave me alone
Watching an episode of Law and Order at least partially based on the Forbes Smiley map thefts and they keep showing 18th century maps and saying wrong things about them and I need to know who to sue for emotional damages
I think it's uniquely funny to Canadians haha. Sadly I doubt that was the intention in 18th century Connecticut but who knows?

I consider myself a connoisseur of weird New England names but I just found “Notwithstanding Griswold” and I may die laughing
My new hobby is cheating at the NYT crossword puzzles
Controversial but my main problem with the Napoleon movie is that Joaquin Phoenix is 49 the entire time
ALADDIN THE MOUNT VERNON CHRISTMAS CAMEL HAS MADE HIS GLORIOUS RETURN
