So I have this idea...
...of making my own news thingy. Actually not really news but more like a blog post where I'd share interesting facts and opinions. Every now and then, I'd come with a post about a history fact like:
- who was Giulia Tofana,
- what was Sukeban,
- old slangs for penis,
- when the British parliament thought lipstick was a witchcraft spell to seduce men,
- or how Mickey Mouse was supposed to be public domain since 1984 but Disney keeps buying copyright extensions and the next is due by 2024;
or some science fact such as:
- how post-menopausal women are the hormonally stable of all human demographics,
- butterflies drink blood,
- the chemistry behind tears and emotions and how each type of tear has a different molecular structure,
- or even how fruits we know today were domesticated for consumption.
And also a wide range of topics like:
- how depression and anxiety can cause memory loss,
- the different types of headwear worn by Muslim women since there's more than just the hijab,
- the Betteridge's law of headlines,
- the human need of labeling and categorizing stuff,
- the many different types of love named by Ancient Greek people
- why penne lisce shouldn't exist,
- how male predators tend to gravite towards environments with unquestionable male authority and leverage shame, such as churches and cults,
- how to make chloroform,
- how you could deliver your own baby by mail in 1913 for only 15 cents,
- why olive oil was popular in Ancient Greece,
- the bodybuilder priest,
- how pink was a boys colour in the past,
- who was Robert Smalls,
- Leonardo da Vinci's lovers,
- and more.
Now, I need to know if people here are actually interested in learning about this kind of stuff, so please tell me if you'd like read something like that. I'd do proper research beforehand and leave the sources at the end for those who may want to know more. Another thing I'm concerned about is whether do I make it a "question" or "experience". I'd like to add many images so it wouldn't be just a boring block of text but if I use "experience", it could easily be hidden away and the purpose of my idea is to reach as many people as possible. I thought about using questions and sharing a link for each image but I wanted to know you guys' opinions.
Last thing, if you think I should more forward with this project, what should I name it? I thought that something like "History Fact #0" or "_____ PSA #0" would be cool but I don't think it's that creative so I need ideas please.
Ah and if you think this whole thing is a bad idea or there's something wrong with it, please do tell. I won't get upset and am looking forward to any type of criticism.
If you read till here thank you so much and please comment something so more people can see :D It took almost two hours to just write this post.
