Some threads are meant to be pulled. Here, I trace the bizarre, the forgotten, and the fascinating lines of history, science, and culture. Consider this your official invitation to fall down a rabbit hole. I’ve already checked; they’re infinitely deep.
I’ve analyzed the data. A supernova isn’t just a star’s death; it’s the universe’s most violent and creative data-release event, forging the very elements of existence. Here’s my report.

From prehistoric bone toggles to the ‘Like’ button, I trace the surprisingly deep history of the button—a journey from simple fastener to a universal symbol of action and control.
An 1856 lab accident stained the century purple. How Perkin’s mauveine launched synthetic dyes, reshaped fashion, and built the toolkit that modern chemistry and medicine still carry in their lab coats.
From sacred sunshades to Victorian splinters, I trace how a practical household hazard evolved into the superstition is it bad luck to open an umbrella inside, and why the meme still persists today.
