At some point "fanfic can be as good as professional writing" became "fanfic should be as good as professional writing" and that's caused major damage to fandom spaces.

Dear writers of School Spirits,
Hey…SO WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK-

Welcome to Weird White House, a new series on the wacky facts that I find and/or remember off the top of my head about the US presidents. I say "weird" with all the love in my history nerd heart.
We start the series (and year) off with:
CALVIN COOLIDGE
THIS DELIGHTFUL DUDE
JUST DELIGHTFUL.
Nicknamed "Silent Cal" because he apparently wasn't super talkative (and it totally wasn't his secret gangster name), Coolidge:
-had a pet raccoon named Rebecca which was sent to him from someone who thought he should make it his Thanksgiving dinner and his family was like NAH THIS IS PET MATERIAL
-he loved being photographed wearing Native American headresses (he was adopted into the Sioux tribe), so here's what that looked like:
AND HE WAS PHOTOGRAPHED IN THESE THINGS
I would 1000% vote for an candidate who swaggered around with their name on their giant cowboy chaps.
-After President Harding's sudden death, Coolidge was woken up in the middle of the night, sworn in by lantern light by his dad (who was a notary), and then he went back to bed. Priorities.
-speaking of which, Coolidge slept 12 HOURS A DAY PLUS NAPS. Role model for us all.
-he had a mechanical horse in the White House that he used for exercise. Its nickname was "Thunderbolt".
Tragically, it didn't look like the ones that used to be outside Walmart:
You're welcome for that whole mental image of a stern-faced Coolidge rocking off into the sunset on a mechanical box.
-despite his stern demeanor, Coolidge had a very dry, sarcastic sense of humor which a lot of people didn't get, which brings us to
MY FAVORITE FACT ABOUT CALVIN
-Coolidge liked to press buttons in the Oval Office and hide under the desk while the Secret Service ran around looking for him
I KID YOU NOT THIS MAN WAS A P R A N K S T E R
Additional photos of interest that exist:
1.) Coolidge staring at a cow:
(someone please caption that)
2.) COOLIDGE'S KITTIES BLACKIE AND TIGER:
so freaking cute
And finally
3.) Coolidge exercising with the Speaker of the House, as one does:
So if Coolidge isn't one of your top favorite presidents by now, go sleep for 12 hours and try again.
Maybe she’s born with it, maybe it’s her dads fault.
