Always glad to see a fellow beef head out in the wild. Beef out!

History podcasts I like:

Revolutions. Well known; Mike Duncan goes through various revolutions through history in an excellent, detailed narrative.

American History Too!: two academics from the university of Glasgow have various guests on to discuss different topics from American history. They know their stuff and are really charismatic.

In Our Time: BBC podcast that's been going since the early 2000s. A panel of academics are interviewed and discuss a topic on which they are all experts. Incredibly well researched and interesting, though not especially humorous.

There's any number of reasons. They might have a friend who uses Reddit who sent it to them. They might have replied on Reddit, and also have thought it worth broadcasting to their shitter followers as well. They might browse Reddit on desktop but not have an account.

Yeah, these kind of posts always feel kinda mean if it's not him that's put that caption.

People who aren't conventionally attractive are allowed to have a sense of style and wear fun clothes too.

Everett True wouldn't put up with this shit

It's also just commonly done in UK newspapers. Age and familial status is always given. Terry Pratchett made a joke about it in one of his books, though I can't remember the quote.

Edit: found one (not exactly the gag I wanted but CBA to look further)

'Exc--' he began. But the citizen's eyes had already detected the notebook. 'I saw it all,' he said. 'Did you?' 'It was a ter-ri-ble scene,' said the man, at dictation speed. 'But the watch-man made a deathdefying plunge to res-cue the old lady and he de-serves a med-al.' 'Really?' said William, scribbling fast. 'And you are--' 'Sa-muel Arblaster (43), stonemason, of The Scours,' said the man. 'I saw it too,' said a woman next to him, urgently. 'Mrs Florrie Perry, blonde mother of three, from Dolly Sisters. It was a scene of car-nage.'

huh. Google says American cider is just unfiltered apple juice

I stand by what I said though: hot mulled (alcoholic) cider is great

Him is the guy in the post -- Tim Walz

Some plants the flowers are very pretty, but the whole plant isn't practical to be kept indoors (e.g. roses), and they don't necessarily flower all year round. If someone has a favourite flower or favourite colour of flower, it makes them feel special when someone thinks to buy them for them (they get a flower they love to look at for the next week, and they know that someone cares about them enough to buy them flowers, and keep the knowledge of which like).

That's fair enough. I guess I see it as if I'm happy enough to eat off rinsed plates from the dishwasher, I'm happy enough to eat a rinsed fungus.

Mulled cider is fucking banging. You're missing out if you've never had it

I don't think it's intended to be a role model for behaviour; like Tom and Jerry, it's cartoon violence for the sake of humour. An over the top reaction to something that people generally find irritating.
