book rec time!

OMSB. I am only on page sixtysomething, but I command all you French Revolution nerds to get ye hence to your bookseller of choice and buy Vive la Révolution by Mark Steel. It is side-splittingly hilarious, has more perspective than your average history book (and a lot more amusing anecdotes too), and is full of snark about every biased history of the Revolution you've ever stumbled upon at Borders. It is so much love.

(Why yes, I attempted to banish my ennui with shopping therapy. Why do you ask?)
