*"He does have a decent amount of support, unfortunately. His appeal is rooted in traditional nationalism, the lost "glory" of empire, and a golden age that never really existed.....sound familiar, my fellow Americans?"

I don't want to go through things that don't kill me but make me stronger anymore.

In 1856, a 17-year-old girl named Adeline Harris started making a unique quilt.
Over the next two decades, she sent pieces of silk to famous people from around the world and they signed them and sent them back to her. She assembled them into a quilt with a tumbling blocks pattern (aka, the Q*bert pattern). The signatures that Harris was able to acquire are astounding: Harriet Beecher Stowe, Charles Dickens, Oliver Wendell Holmes, Samuel Morse, Alexandre Dumas, Ralph Waldo Emerson, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, Alexander von Humboldt, Washington Irving, and Nathaniel Hawthorne. Oh, and eight US Presidents: Martin Van Buren, John Tyler, Millard Fillmore, Franklin Pierce, James Buchanan, Abraham Lincoln, Andrew Johnson, and Ulysses S. Grant.
