  Les Métamorphoses du jour Plate LII by Jean Ignace Isidore Gérard Grandville, restored by Adam Cuerden. Working on this was one of the last happy moments I'm going to have for a while.

Ask not for whom the bell tolls, it tolls for thee. So, this issue, we're publishing what I had done when what happened happened. It's hard to be silly after that.^[1]

Fourteen featured articles were promoted this period.

Maurice Suckling, nominated by Pickersgill-Cunliffe

'Twould seem a minor officer, who, for historical merit would suck,

Were his nephew not Horatio Nelson, who is noted for his pluck!

Suckling used his rank to push him into high positions

But died unexpectedly 'fore he was forty of longstanding conditions.

Order of Brothelyngham, nominated by Serial Number 54129

They played as monks to poke fun of them, the bishops raging daily,

Going around and beating up fellows, robbing them quite gaily.

It's fun mediaeval blasphemy! The one weird trick that clergy hate

So head on down to Exeter, the fourteenth century's the date!

...You do have a time machine, right?

Thank You (Meghan Trainor album), nominated by MaranoFan (a.k.a. NØ)

Half sovereign, nominated by Wehwalt and Platonist Rainbow

Kyriakos Pittakis, nominated by UndercoverClassicist

Esplanade MRT station, nominated by ZKang123

Angel Aquino, nominated by Pseud 14

Abishabis, nominated by Z1720

A leader of a religious movement amongst the Cree,

He encouraged many to stop hunting fur

The fur traders really didn't like this fact,

And he was vaguely accused of a mur-

-Der.

He was killed before trial, and information on what he was supposed to have done is vague. Well, that's one way to keep the economy going. Or maybe he was guilty. Who knows?

British logistics in the Western Allied invasion of Germany, nominated by Hawkeye7

Mars in fiction, nominated by TompaDompa

From religious allegory, little green men, and Barsoom,

To Marvin the Martian who makes Earth go "boom".

(List incomplete; please add thirty more stanzas. —Ed.)

40 Wall Street, nominated by Epicgenius

Its good reputation now hits quite a slump,

Since, after he bought it, it was renamed after Trump.

Josette Simon nominated by BennyOnTheLoose

Actress from Blake's 7, but her effect is long-lasting

In getting British directors to choose to use race-blind casting.

In the Royal Shakespeare Company she's been quite adored,

Which likely has got many other theatres "on-board".

Archaeology, Anthropology, and Interstellar Communication, nominated by Vaticidalprophet

If we could speak to lions, could we understand them?

Now consider a species not even of this world

How could their communications then be unfurled?

Or be determined as just something random?

(You know, like TikTok, or whatever crap the younger generation are doing.)

Private Case, nominated by SchroCat

From its nomination:

Set up by the Victorian-minded and rather strait-laced administrators at the British Museum, the Private Case was the place they stashed the erotica and pornography to keep it away from the lascivious eyes of the hoi polloi. The BM denied its existence to the public and didn't list the works on the main public catalogue until the early twentieth century. As social mores changed in the 1960s, the museum began to liberalise their approach, and the collection is now entirely open access. From being a hidden dirty secret, it is now considered a superb resource to study the attitudes held by previous generations on sexuality, gender, etc.
