Pick Your Infodump Topic

Damojo

If you were to infodump passionately right now, what would your topic be?

I tend to get fired up by whatever I've been reading lately, so mine might be ... wait for it ... the contribution of the Black Death to the end of feudalism in Europe.

Can anyone beat that with something even more fascinating? I think I've set the bar pretty high.

  • 1) Autism in women (I realised I'm autistic 3 weeks ago, so its become my new special interest)

    2) plants and soiltypes in my garden 

    3) ingredients in supermarket foods (and avoiding E numbers / preservatives) 

    4) finding high-quality first hand children's clothes for under £4-5 per piece

    5) Cromwell - and specifically Mark Rylance's portrayal in Wolf Hall

    I agree Wolf Hall was brilliant and Mark Rylance a genius, it's so much better than the books too, I really struggled with Wolf Hall, less so the others, but when reading it I was thinking how good it would be on tv if done properly. I watched Shardlake when it was on a few weeks ago, that portrayal of Cromwell was so crude in comparisson and the whole thing badly done, I never got on with the books either.
