This Friday the game 'Manor Lord' is coming out, it's a medieval city builder that I've made a modest contribution to as a historical consultant and beta tester for. I've been very excited about it for a long time and I'm not the only one, it's creating quite a buzz and has ended…

The Ship and Shovell, near Charing Cross, said to be the only London pub split in two halves!🍻 Up until 1998 it was separate pubs, The Ship and The Shovell, but they are now combined, with a tunnel linking the two under the street, used as the kitchen.
There are fungi at Chernobyl that EAT radiation and nuclear fallout – and that’s only the start of this wild story 🍄☢️ Buckle up for a wild thread about radioactive boars, fungal space suits, radiation-detecting fungi, black frogs and a good dose of hope! 🧵
On 26 April 1986, a reactor at the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant exploded. It destroyed the containment building and caused a reactor core fire that lasted 8 days, spraying airborne radioactive contaminants throughout the USSR and Europe 😨
People started dying of acute radiation syndrome (ARS) (and the WHO predicts that 9000+ people will die of cancer triggered by this event). They created the Exclusion Zone – a restricted area of 2,600 km2 (1,000 sq mi) around the site where radioactive contamination is highest.
Imagine how SURREAL it must have been for the researchers when they got access in the 90s, approached this desolate wasteland at this tragic site, and saw that the surrounding soil had turned BLACK from fungal growth!
Even stranger: they realised this black fungi wasn’t just growing *despite* the radiation, but seemed to be growing *towards* it. When they were able to get close enough, they found mould and yeast GROWING on the walls INSIDE the reactor.
