A fantastic #wellingtonwednesday to you all!
This week, we have a well written article by @krinjewolker on the psychology of a post-history society, as well as post-apocalyptic art
He questions if we live in ruins, and if so would we even realise?

Being active on the global stage can be broad in scope and have many implications which would be impossible to cover in a simple definition of terms. What we do not mean is for Britain to be involved in forcibly exporting its ideology across the globe. 1/11
Whilst we believe the British Empire to have been a net positive, global land empires are part of the rich tapestry of history and appear likely to remain so. 2/11

As monuments are being torn down i am going to create one. The work started last week when i re-homed a tatty old rescue sword. All week i have been tinkering. Yesterday i started the research.
This will be an ongoing thread for a bit.

Time hadn't been kind. Must have been stored either completely damp or in a damp space. Active rust was having a go at the blade and guard leaving some quite deep pitting. Doubtful it was going to see another century.
The 1897 pattern sword is very common and reasonably cheap. All antique swords are like time machines to me. They were present in momentous times and often carried by people in fear of their lives. I can't help travelling back and wondering at it all when holding one.
