I’m especially dumbfounded as I thought that before there was an important police force and a mature legal system, murders were far more frequent than after.
At the same time, it’s possible I’m imagining 1632 London to be more primitive than it really was.

I just want to let you know that when women share their experiences, some men like me will process what they’ve read and understand, and not reply or anything. I don’t have anything to add. I’m probably part of a large silent group.
That was before the bear thing. I actually hadn’t even seen the bear meme.

My first language isn’t English, and as I was trying to understand the headline, I thought “torch dead” might be an expression meaning, burning alive with torches or similar. So I was reading “reddit mods delete thread as doctors burn CEO alive”. The event described sounded much more brutal than it really was.
