It IS February 17th.
I actually had a person yell at me today because he was certain that today is February 18th, and he is expecting me to do something for him on the 18th. But… for the record it is not the 18th.
February 17th, 1600ce, was the day that the Government authorities took a man from a prison cell, clamped a vice on his tongue, and then took him to be burned alive at the stake.
His crime?
Not adhering to and openly questioning the narrative.
Sound… oddly familiar to anybody?
