Okay, it's not, but when Emily makes a promise, she delivers!

Cursed Objects

Afternoonified ·

2024/03/20

Before you pick up that oil painting of a crying boy at your local thrift shop, maybe take a second to consider that it's cursed... This week, we're taking a look at a couple of cursed objects that range from kitschy art to literal historical artifacts and what effect they had on the people who encountered them. Also, we know we were actually thinking of David Attenborough, not Richard. It'll make sense later. Support Afternoonified by contributing to their tip jar:

Cleopatra

Afternoonified ·

2024/03/06

The story of Cleopatra seems pretty straightforward. A beautiful Queen using her charms to gain power and, eventually, lose it tragically. While some of that is true, Cleopatra's image and story have long been the victim of Roman propaganda and rumor. We don't claim to have all the answers, but hopefully we can set the record straight on a few details of this incredible woman's life.

Race for the South Pole

Afternoonified ·

2024/02/21

In 1911, two groups of men decided they would try their luck at being the first to reach the South Pole. Of course, it being 1911, this was a bit of an undertaking that resulted in some very cold boys and quite a bit of drama. Warning: This might get rough if you're a fan of dogs and/or ponies...or humans, I guess. Mostly the first two.

In our defense, we though that it would be nice to read a few Grimms Fairytales in honor of Valentine's Day. Of course, we forgot who we were dealing with and things went a little off the rails.

This week we're taking a look into the life of the woman who created one of the most fascinating literary genres of all time while she was still (technically) a child.
