Happy deathday, Lord Byron !!

You may have been a great poet, but for me, a geek fan of horror, your biggest accomplishments will be being the source to three huge figures of horror movies AND computers.

To elaborate, here are my mixtape of Lord Byron's greatest hits :

Launching the writing session that saw Mary Shelley write "Frankenstein or the modern Prometheus",

Inspiring John Polidori to write "The Vampyre" which in turn inspired Bram Stoker to write "Dracula",

Inspiring (through his poems and Byronic heroes) Robert Louis Stevenson to write "Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde"

Being such a slut and spending all his money that his wife Anne Isabella Mildrake decided to push her daughter Ada Lovelace to study math instead. Ada Lovelace then became the first person to write a program for Charles Babbage's calculator and paving the ways for computers to come (and then losing all her money anyway.)

So it's thanks to Lord Byron that I now have horror movies to watch AND a computer to tell stupid things about them ! Thank you, Lord Byron !

#Romantism #lord byron #mary shelley #john polidori #robert louis stevenson #anne isabella mildrake #ada lovelace #can't believe I drew four Lord Byron #wow #also yes he was a great writer #and also a huge slut (affectionate) #I wish I could have drawn the “I found him in a gutter” “you should have left him there” quote #but four drawings were a lot #oh well #there's always next time #my Drawings

"A magic fairy heard our wishes, guys !"

"*Kaz groans in the other room*"

i think as a fandom we forget that kaz is absolutely balling bro like he’s basically rich and would definitely spoil whoever his partner is (inej or jesper or whoever u ship :))

i like to imagine that he would hear them say something abt wanting a certain thing and then mysteriously ✨ it will show up in their room a few days later with a note that says “-K”

Stone cooking supports used to grill skewers of meat by Minoans on Santorini, circa 3600 years old. The line of holes in the base supplied coals with oxygen. Many consider modern "souvlaki" street kebabs a direct descendant of this portable food system. Museum of Prehistoric Thera, Greece. More: https://thetravelbible.com/museum-of-artifacts/
