(…) Yet, when Joan appeared, and they felt her confidence and determination, they followed her with a loyalty which few soldiers in history have given their leaders. She responded by leading them to victory. Yes, the state of France in 1429 should have kept Joan of Arc spinning wool at her home in Domrémy. But it did not. And judging from her results, she may have been just what the French military needed to regain its own confidence and composure and to realize the advantages that it had over its English enemies.

A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness.

saw a tiktok of a mother taking her very tiny daughter to an art museum and she’s just walking around going “whoooa” “woooaah” to everything but then they got to a marble statue of a nude woman lying on her back and the girl points and goes “mommy🫵” and i just immediately welled up with tears and all the comments are just laughing about it and of course it’s funny but how are you not insanely moved by the way art connects everyone on earth from a centuries-old sculptor to a toddler in 2023
