"Gypsy" is a song by British-American #rock band #FleetwoodMac. The song was written by #StevieNicks around 1979; the earliest demo recordings were made in early 1980 with #TomMoncrieff for possible inclusion on her debut solo album #BellaDonna. When Nicks' close friend Robin Anderson died of #leukemia, the song took on a new significance and Nicks dedicated the song to her in future performances. "#Gypsy" was the second single release.

Ok y’all, apparently the right wing is freaking the hell out about a TikTok trend of Make Aqua Tofana Great Again," or #MATGA. Now, this is some funny shit right’chere, I tell you what.

Some history: Also known as “Manna di San Nicola", the poison which was formulated with #lead, #arsenic and #belladonna, and developed by Madame #Tofana was sold openly, and is rumored to be the cause of over 600 murdered husbands. It is odorless, flavorless and very deadly. Also, nobody knows the exact formula anymore.

Modern context, #MAGA are posting “your body, my choice” memes, and women are responding by stitching in themselves pouring a vial of clear liquid into a glass and saying MATGA.

Naturally, the right wing immediately demanded the fbi hunt these women down as terrorists. Because maga are #bullies, and like all bullies, crumble when faced with even the slightest hint that they may face repercussions.

@AbandonedAmerica Ask it about Asthmador.

The bad but easy info, on a Smithsonian WWW site no less, is people saying how "great" it was.

The good info that the FTC banned it in 1937 from being marketed as a cure, because it contained a hallucinogen (#DaturaStramonium) cut with a poison (#Belladonna) and the people who took it were actually addicts hallucinating that they were better, some even dying of the poison, is only available in books and behind subscription paywalls.

#OTD William Herbert, British #Botanist & #Clergyman, is born.

William confused #Gardener-s after he split the Amaryllis genera into #Amaryllis & #Hippeastrum.

There's only one species in the original Amaryllisllis genus - the #Belladonna.

The Hippeastrum genera has 90 species, including the big #Bulbs we pot up in the #Winter & refer to as Amaryllis. But really, they are Hippeastrum - a name that doesn't roll off the tongue & has never caught on.
