Here we are again: February 26, the 26th day of February. On this day in 364 CE, emperor Valentinian I of Rome was proclaimed emperor of Rome. On this day in 1266, two most historic sovereigns, Manfred of Sicily and Charles of Anjou, did battle during the Battle of Benevento. Meanwhile in 1534, Pope Paul II, the second Pope Paul, affirmed one George van Egmond as the Bishop of Utrecht, a city in the Netherlands known for its marvelous canals and storied bell tower. And then, in 2017, merely one human year ago, I had an eye doctor appointment. History—it’s all around us, if you only know where to look. And speaking of looking, why not look at these tweets:

Owning firearms is the foundation of citizens’ liberty against government overreach. Also, instead of regulating firearms, we should have a government registry tracking everyone’s mental health status.
