(advertisement in Whitaker's Almanack, 1883)

“The doctor here will bear me out that on one occasion I tried to kill him for the purpose of strengthening my vital powers by the assimilation with my own body of his life through the medium of his blood—relying, of course, upon the Scriptural phrase, ‘For the blood is the life.’ Though, indeed, the vendor of a certain nostrum has vulgarised the truism to the very point of contempt. Isn’t that true, doctor?”

(Renfield, 30 September)

Mistigram: to you, it's just an #OrangeShirt that AdeptApril has illustrated in #ANSIart. But if you're in Canada, the shirt represents the imposition of the #ResidentialSchool system on Indigenous children for around a century and a half, removing them from the care of their parents and extinguishing their language and culture in a slow-moving campaign of genocide. We wear the symbolic garment today in a gesture in support of #TruthAndReconcilation.
