Interesting fact of the day: Did you know that the plague doctors weren't really protected from the plague by their leather robes? While it was in retrospect a great movement toward protecting themselves from diseases (the idea that disease could "get on you" was revolutionary) thing is, while their body was protected they did miss a small spot, the ankle, ironically that's where the fleas carrying the plague would bite them. Strongly scented herbs were placed in the beak so that they could withstand the scent of the putrefying deads.

Roger Stone is an odd choice, but pretty scary. I get it.

The perfect costume for 2020, and 1918, and 1347.
