Book cover of Rebellion: the History of England from James I to the Glorious Revolution by Peter Ackroyd

A passage about Charles II: "The king was at first diligent in his duties but he soon tired of the details of his administration. He grew easily bored at the meetings of his council and disliked the paperwork of office; it was reported by the marquis of Halifax that his ministers 'had to administer business to him as doctors do physic, wrap it up in something to make it less unpleasant.' It was also a convenient way for him to disown responsibility for certain policies. As he once said, 'My words are my own but my acts are my ministers.'"

The Stuarts, Scottish descendants who ignored the English people's wishes & rule of law. A civil war removed one only for the next to return more corrupt than the last, lying to parliament & removing legit members of gov't.
And all the while he was on the payroll of a foreign power. #RootRootRead

A mechanical issue on the plane meant the Blue Jays had a decision to make. They chose to bus from Phoenix to Anaheim. Not everyone was thrilled — Max Scherzer wrote a kangaroo court summons for manager John Schneider. On the Blue Jays broadcast last night, they said Schneider’s joking defense was that if Scherzer was upset, he could have bought the team a new plane.

I would like to have seen Scherzer's response to Schneider's quip.
