HOWEVER, my professor said we could make our presentation on anything, so I decided to do mine on Medieval European medicine so no one can call me out on any BS.

Yeah! They can just call out medival medicine. (Which as I recall was either genius, or idiotic.)

Yeah! I'm definitely going to talk some about how they often found things that still work today, but often for the wrong reasons. Four humors? Absolutely wrong. But we still use a form of bloodletting with medicinal leeches, and the practice often was known to attribute medical problems to a natural (as opposed to supernatural) cause. It's pretty neat stuff. Also, apparently Hippocrates and Aristotle were against using medicines and instead preferred dietary changes and removal of excess fluids as remedies. Which is also wrong, but a really cool and fun fact.

y'all my mom got me earrings with ravens on them for easter and??? i'm really touched?? because i'm not sure that she's aware just how much those birds are to me. like, that picture is more than just a fandom reference. "Ravens" is more than just a word. it's my name, and my identity, just as much as "Elena" is.

That's great! I know what you mean. Some variation of Midnight has always been in online names, so it means a lot to me.
