And for the avoidance of doubt: I have literally no desire to outsource any of my work to AI should it become "better". Historical research, and the creative process of writing and crafting something, are *enjoyable things*!

Rosa Luxemburg, for the day that's in it

'Freedom only for the supporters of the government, only for members of a party—however numerous they may be—is not freedom. Freedom is always the freedom of those who think differently'

In the mid 1860s, a young Octavia Farmbrough started a project. She'd ask local people questions and record their responses in a scrapbook. There are hundreds of pages filled out with these responses that give a glimpse into the interests of these Victorians, and we're very lucky to have it today.
