3 Hidden Marvels of Medieval Fortresses"
1.Ingenious Plumbing Systems Beneath the grandeur of some old castles, there was a hidden secret - a clever plumbing system working behind the castle walls. This smart system included toilets, drains, and sewage disposal, which showed how advanced they were back then. These plumbing systems were carefully designed with underground channels and flushing mechanisms. They didn't just keep the castle clean but also helped with its defense. Medieval architects and engineers used their smarts to create networks of pipes and conduits that managed waste well and made life inside the fortress healthier.

5 Surprising Coexistences: People Who Shared Their Eras
5. Joe Biden & Adolf Hitler Joe Biden and Adolf Hitler had a brief overlap in their lifetimes, although they were vastly different figures in history. Joe Biden, born in 1942, is the 46th President of the United States, with a long career in American politics. In contrast, Adolf Hitler, born in 1889, led Nazi Germany during the 1930s and 1940s, responsible for immense human suffering during World War II and the Holocaust. Joe Biden was born three years after Hitler's death, and their paths never crossed. Despite both being leaders, their lives were drastically distinct, with only a limited shared timeframe.

Taylor Swift showed her support for Travis Kelce at a Kansas City Chiefs game.
It seems like there might be a romantic connection brewing between NFL tight end Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift. Taylor was spotted in Kelce's family suite during the Kansas City Chiefs' game against the Chicago Bears. She was seen on the FOX Sports broadcast, energetically cheering for the Chiefs while sporting a red and white team jacket. Throughout the game at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, she appeared to be sitting next to Donna Kelce, Travis Kelce's mom, and they were seen chatting and laughing together.

I wish more people knew about these 4 books from my English degree..
1. Why Don’t You Stop Talking This collection of short stories explores topics such as lesbian relationships, mental health, illness, phobias, and loneliness. This collection is characterized by a downbeat tone, but there are moments of humour scattered throughout it. My favourite story is the Kafka-esque ‘Shell’ where a woman is forced to grow a shell to survive- completing her transformation by turning into a tortoise. Overall, it is well worth the read and there are images in this collection that I still think about years later.

NATO and Biden can crush the Russian economy
From what I hear, things are pretty sucky in Russia. The economy is terrible and their vaccines don’t work. The government rushed vaccine development, skipping essential human trials. As a result, Russians don’t want anything to do with the stuff.

It is similar to baoji, jiaozi and mantou in Chinese cuisine, buz in Mongolian cuisine, and gyoza in Japanese. If we talk about India, then momos is a popular street food in North India, which has become the king of street foods for the last decade.
