I am loving the show The Decameron. It feels pretty much perfect. It's baudy and darkly hilarious. No, I haven't read the original. Medieval Italian literature isn't my forte. #TheDecameron #BlackPlague #plague #tv

Elon Musk infests the federal government. Fleas (Xenopsylla Cheopsi) were the primary vectors of transmission of the black plague. Infected fleas fed on rodents, such as rats and mice, and then transmitted the plague bacteria to humans through their bites. #BlueResisters #ElonMusk #BlackPlague

Elon Musk and DOGE are hacking...

@Knightky and I listen to audiobooks on long road trips. This time, we listened to Between Two Fires by Christopher Buehlman. What at first seems like a basic Middle Ages historical book turns into some seriously wild dark fantasy. I imagined a wackadoo anime for certain scenes. It features a disgraced knight, a naive orphan, and a gay priest on a mysterious quest. Set in France during the time of the Black Plague and the crusades, it portrays religious beliefs and superstitions of the time as literal phenomena. I think Buehlman is my new favourite author. Not sure how I hadn't encountered his books before this year. #bookstodon #fantasy #MedievalFantasy #BlackPlague #crusades #SpeculativeFiction #Normandy #ChristopherBuehlman

If I don't follow you back or have unfollowed you, don't take offense

I try to keep my feed on this account to content I can share, ie. #Covid, #SARSCoV2 #AirQuality, #ClimateChange, #Earthquakes, #Preparedness, etc. (edit: adding #H5N1 #BirdFlu #Mpox & for kicks bcuz it's now on WHO's watchlist #BlackPlague)

I typically follow back as it were, from my non (edit: less) #Doomy account unless you're one of the above

Currently doing some housekeeping. Please excuse the mess. :ablobcatmeltwave:

Did you know that during the time of the #BlackPlague gangs of thousands of #flagellant #Catholics roamed the countrysides in Europe? Daily they would bloody themselves as penance to God, but then also kill non-flagellants like the Jewish populations.

NRK telling the story of the Black Plauge arriving Bergen in 1349: "Outside the harbour is an English merchant ship. There are still many hundreds of years until the people of Bergen will begin to use the guttural R, but this ship is loaded with an even worse and more contagious plague."

#Vss365 (#Gardener's version)

In 1812, the Brothers #Grimm told of #Folklore's Frau #Berchta, an #Alpine #Goddess.

The 5 #Petals of the #White #Christmas #Rose (#Helleborus niger) #Bloomed #Iridescent in her tracks. Berchta means #Luminous.

Niger refers to the #Black #Roots which were used to make a #Poultice during the #BlackPlague.

Berchta visited homes #Between #Christmas & #TwelfthNight to #Bless #Good children w/ #Gold coins & #Punish the #Naughty by stuffing their #Stomach-s w/ straw.

Closeup of Black hellebore - 
commonly called Christmas roses  because they bloom around
Christmas in warmer regions. 

The specific name 'niger', which means black, refers to the color of the brownish-black roots. 

The name may also refer to its use during the Black Plague. The roots were used as a poultice for the infected lymph nodes. 

One German name for the flower is Schwarzer Nieswurz, or "black sneezing root" - a reference to one of the first signs of Black Plaque - sneezing. 

Christmas Roses are highly toxic.

Même pseudo qu'ici : witchographe.
