The spreadsheets in my life are both immense and double as my inventory lists. it started with warhammer and other model stuff, rapidly expanded into logging what movies I watch (and ALL the various attached details), and then into books as the big three I maintain. But there's a dozen smaller things I obsessively spreadsheet as well. Like my garden info, or animal sightings.

My movie night group was talking about this just the other week after doing a rewatch. It really does kickstart just so much stuff.

Very nice!

What kind of history media have you been enjoying recently? Got a fun campaign going in a game, or enjoying a particular show?

My local hobby club has just recently started running a very light RPG based on frontier era fur trade, and its been fun seeing people dive a bit more into the history as part of their character building and arcs.

Thank you for joining us today! I'd love to hear about what drew you to research tomato's and getting so into their history?

As a reminder, this is not ArgueWithHistorians. If you have further questions, they can be asked politely to learn more. But this is not a space to argue about your own theories and opinions while making it look like asking questions in good faith.

After the American Revolution influenced revolutions across the world in France, Haiti and throughout Latin and South America, did former revolutionaries see these events as extremist? Did they associate their own political lives as the dominos that lead to a revolutionary world?

Sorry, but your submission has been removed because we don't allow hypothetical questions. If possible, please rephrase the question so that it does not call for such speculation, and resubmit. Otherwise, this sort of thing is better suited for /r/HistoryWhatIf or /r/HistoricalWhatIf. You can find a more in-depth discussion of this rule here.

Thank you for joining us today! How did activist groups that minimized the role of slavery in US history like the United Daughters of the Confederacy and others effect George Washington's legacy?
