I know many of you are feeling very stressed today.
Understandable. I'm feeling that way too.
Remembering the attempted overthrow of the government IS stressful.

But take some time for yourself.
Perhaps do what I do.
Sit in a comfortable chair.
Drink some tea, or maybe wine.
Close your eyes, meditate.

And recall that it's been 419 years.

Mistigram: It’s AdeptApril’s turn to urge us to #RememberRememberTheFifthOfNovember for #GuyFawkesDay, with an #ANSIart arrangement of his mask, as widely seen in the 2005 film adaptation of Adam Moore’s #VForVendetta comic (where this specific design was the handiwork of illustrator David Lloyd) … or every day, for members of #Anonymous.

Ah the day we remember when Christo-fascists tried to end democracy by blowing up Parliament. Sure glad that sort of thing doesn't happen anymore.

Remember, remember!
The fifth of November,
The Gunpowder treason and plot;
I know of no reason
Why the Gunpowder treason
Should ever be forgot!

#GunpowderPlot
Celebrated with fireworks as Guy Fawkes Day, this English holiday commemorates the anniversary of the Gunpowder Plot, a daring attempt by Roman Catholics led by Robert Catesby to blow up Parliament, the king, and his family on this day in 1605

Vamos de história, afinal hoje é 5 de novembro!

Lembrai, lembrai do cinco de novembro
A pólvora, a traição, o ardil
Por isso não vejo como esquecer
Uma traição de pólvora tão vil

The mighty Mavors, jealous to behold
A Mars more mighty nor himself below,
Did once resolve his rivall to ore’throw…

Guy Fawkes Day.

The #gunpowderplot — Nov. 5, 1605, when Guy #fawkes attempted to blow up the House of Parliament, including the king and other high ranking officials, to protest how #catholics in #england were persecuted.

It was meant to invoke a revolution, but Fawkes was caught and executed. Afterwards his death became a celebration, with bonfires lit across England to celebrate the strength of the #Protestant majority.

That’s how #insurrection was dealt with. Guy didn’t run for office.
