George Washington was such a beefcake as a teenage boy that a local girl once stole his clothes when he was bathing in the river so she could ogle his nude bod from the bushes while he searched for them.

Mussolini was named after Benito Juárez, a Mexican lawyer, President, and (I think) revolutionary.
Yes, he was the one that ran Maximiliano and the French out of Mexico.
Incredibly cursed backstory name
Classical liberal republican for a fascist

During WW1 the king of Spain, Alphonse 13th, maintained neutrality and imposed a total media blackout on the war to prevent the population from picking sides on it and potentially pressuring the government to join the war.

Unfortunately for him, his mother was Marie Christine of Hasburg was member of the german nobility while his wife, Victoria of Battenberg was niece of King George. During the war both women were constantly pressuring him to pick a side on the war and get embroiled into it.
 
It also reminds me that the scariest movie I ever saw wasn't a horror movie, but a documentary about all the bugs you have that live in your house.
It shouldn't be scary, though. I mean, maybe they look a bit scary when magnified with an electron microscope, but consider this.

No matter how lonely you think you are, there are entire civilizations of innocent creatures depending on your existence. You have millions of tiny friends. Maybe billions. Maybe trillions.

You should take solace in that.

Murrica would have never ended up a god-tier country had we not started out with a genuine Chad for a leader.

I don't like the idea of some tiny bug climbing on me when I'm sleeping, lol.

Actually on second thought, never mind. If that fact about spiders climbing in our mouths while we sleep is true, that is way worse.

God knows how many live in our eyelashes. Because there are microscopic bugs living in them
