DragonKing Dark: The more that things change
Recently we’ve been digging through Newspapers.com doing some history research. Searching for old family members, the history of our town, and more. Reading newspapers from the 1800s through the 1940s over and over again makes you realize that we aren’t so special here in 2019.
In fact, the more that things change, the more they stay the same. You can add radio, television, go to the moon, have multiple wars, the internet, and every political argument you can think of — but in the end human nature seems consistent.
