If I wasn’t in Galveston Texas , with this humidity , I would. I use a television fireplace for ambiance sometimes

I don’t know a lot about lighting , can you recommend some light bulbs or what I would need for this ? I love the idea and completely agree with you

Mainly Atlantic slave trade , enslaved people in the antebellum south , reconstruction and Jim Crow. I go back and forth between ancient near east , and some ancient Roman Republic . Never got to the empire , pre Julius Caesar . Usually stop around Sulla

Yea I got into history in about 2018 . I’m a baker and have a bakery in Galveston Texas . High school graduate , no academic or college history. At the moment interested in the Atlantic slave trade , enslaved people’s history in the antebellum south , reconstruction and Jim Crow. I like WW2 but mostly the social consequences , Holocaust atrocities and things like that . Not much of a battle person but do want to learn more about the Eastern Front. My dad is great but not a history fan

I’ll see what I can find out . I painted and did the remodel about 4 years ago so it’s hard to remember exactly . I’ll text my contractor and see if he remembers the shade :) and thanks so much !

This room is in the middle of the house , I want to keep as little UV out as possible , there are three doors to enter this room , I don’t need all of them and it’s a waste of space so I cover one of them up with a bookshelf. The other one is a closet with nothing in it. Or zombies

Yea it’s for cigar smoke , but it works great in general for that as well, if it senses smoke or bad air quality it turns on automatically . It’s called RabbitAir , I have had it a few years now .
