@molly0xfff “had been drunk for at least the week prior” my GOD lolol

@molly0xfff I'd do the same if I woke up some day realizing I became a politician somehow.

extra credit to the Buffalo Courier correspondent who transcribed all of Andrew Johnson's drunken hiccups

@molly0xfff Amazing when you think that he needed to do it in shorthand and figure out how to transcribe THAT speech in real-time.

@Infoseepage i would love to see a copy of that

@molly0xfff If you want to spend a few hours of your life going down an interesting rabbit hole, read about the Pitman shorthand system. Came up earlier this trip. Think someone on my feed posted about a weird bible they'd found in an antique store and turns out the whole thing was in Pitman shorthand.

@Infoseepage i tried to teach myself Gregg shorthand when i was a teenager 😁

And yet somehow still not the worst president in history
