Last night I learned about Violet Club, the UK's "Megaton" (more like 400 KT) FISSION (not thermonuclear) bomb.
HFS guys, this thing was the worst idea ever.
I can't believe I didn't know about it, and now I'm SO curious about it....

We are in Toronto for the week and have enjoyed celebrating Thanksgiving the original way, by invading someone else's land and expecting them to help us when we get lost.

again that is not an exaggeration. the Normans built Winchester on a floating log raft and when those logs decayed, the Edwardians sent a guy to plug the holes with cement except they'd been burying bodies for centuries already so it was just like. corpse soup

and of course this is not the only English cathedral we have done this to! It's just the one we haven't figured out how to fix yet. At Winchester they had a guy spending six years diving into water filled with decaying bodies to build a cement foundation idk

i fully agree with this theory and in my actual field, british architectural history, The Problem is that Salisbury Cathedral is built on top of a lake and no i am not exaggerating
between this and the FSO Safer (another ship at serious risk of exploding) I’m convinced every field has its “yeah, this is the problem that keeps me up at night” and I’m on a quest to learn about all of them
yes yes we all know about the Edmund Fitzgerald, rest her soul, but did you know about the ship laden with explosives that sank in the mouth of the Thames in 1944 and could explode at any minute and which attempts to disarm keep failing
