May his memory be a blessing.
Willem Arondéus (22 August 1894 – 1 July 1943) was a Dutch artist and author who joined the Dutch anti-Nazi resistance movement during World War II. He participated in the bombing of the Amsterdam public records office to hinder the Nazi German effort to identify Dutch Jews and others wanted by the Gestapo. Arondéus was caught and executed soon after his arrest. Yad Vashem recognized Arondéus as Righteous Among the Nations.
Their attack, which took place on 27 March 1943, was partially successful, and they managed to destroy 800,000 identity cards, and retrieve 600 blank cards and 50,000 guilders. The building was blown up and no one was caught on the night of the attack. However, due to an unknown betrayer, Arondéus was arrested on 1 April 1943. Arondéus refused to give up the rest of his team.
Arondéus was openly gay before the war and defiantly asserted his sexuality before his execution. His final words were:
"Tell the people that homosexuals are not by definition weak."
From Wikipedia
He was also a pretty great artist

Oh holy shit they found Silphium alive and growing in the wild.
Like now that I am awake I need to reiterate how huge this is. It was presumed harvested to extinction by the Romans. It was a favorite flavoring and according to historians one of the best contraceptives ever known. True or not it would be fantastic to study that but it being extinct made that impossible.
This is such a huge deal! I hope they get it figured how to grow it.
Just read the article, and in short, the scientist thinks a particular species found some distance from the original growing place could be the miracle plant. Sounded like it's not 100% sure yet, but plausible!! So cool??
I found another article about it on the Brazilian National Geographic website, and guys. GUYS.
So, like @faeforge said, this plant was a big culinary deal, right? Apparently, this historian and cook lady, Sally Grainger, from this culinary channel, got together with the scientist who discovered the plant, AND THEY COOKED WITH IT. Recipes with silphium were super well-documented, it seems, so they got together and just cooked the hell out of it, had a little feast with the team, and it was, by all accounts, absolutely delicious.
Of course, now the great worry is that there are very, very few specimens of it, only half of them being raised in captivity, so it is a delicate situation.
They!! Cooked!! With it!!
