Aspiring aspirer. Mostly just tired though.

How does your 'Anything Goes' go?

@Aella_Girl Wouldn't it be the exact opposite? I would think people are afraid you CAN'T blame anyone for anything, if all your actions are predetermined (they are, whether we like that or not), but I think people push back on that because it means nobody can ever be held responsible

@SethAbramson But Seth, he's a brutish idiot? That's why I didn't understand your earlier tweets where you were expecting him to depose Putin? He wanted to depose the military leadership, not Putin, who he thinks is his friend. You can tell when watching him speak, he's a simpleminded fool

@TylerHuckabee I wouldn't say EQUALLY likely: music, which has moved people everywhere since before Christianity existed, or a magic universe creator for whom there's no proof, that's suspiciously like all the other universe creators humans invent all the time? I invented 7 for my d&d campaign

Charles the Il of Spain was the result of nearly 200 years of inbreeding. The House of Habsburgs stopped introducing new genes at around 1550, leading to a circular family tree.

Charles II was born as the product of an uncle-niece relationship, and historians Will and Ariel Durant vividly described him as "short, lame, epileptic, senile, and completely bald before 35, always on the verge of death but repeatedly baffling Christendom by continuing to live."

Before reaching the age of six, Charles II miraculously survived a series of diseases, including chickenpox, measles, rubella, and smallpox. He faced numerous physical challenges, as he couldn't walk until the age of eight and struggled to chew food independently. His enlarged tongue made his speech unintelligible to others.

The papal nuncio Millini provided a detailed description of Charles II, stating, "The king is rather short, skinny, but not badly formed, only ugly in the face; he has a long neck, a long face, a long chin and as if it bent upwards; the lower lip typical of the Habsburgs; not very large eyes, turquoise blue, and a fine and delicate complexion. He has a look with melancholy on his face and a little astonished. His hair is blond and long, and it is combed back so that the ears are exposed. He cannot stand upright unless he leans against a wall, a table, or something else. His body is as weak as his mind. Occasionally, he shows signs of intelligence, memory, and a certain liveliness, but not consistently; he usually appears slow and indifferent, seemingly dumbfounded. You can do whatever you want with him since he lacks his own will."

Charles II's death in 1700, at the age of 39, triggered the War of Spanish Succession and marked the end of the House of Habsburgs. His autopsy report revealed distressing findings, stating that his "heart was the size of a peppercorn; his lungs corroded; his intestines rotten and gangrenous; he had a single testicle, black as coal, and his head was full of water."

@moldyvuitton @punished_cait It also implies you think your husband somehow is the ONLY heterosexual man with access to the Internet who doesn't watch fully naked women getting railed by black guys with huge dicks every time he's home alone, like every else has been doing since 1999.

@dpecchia @F_inRich @Aella_Girl I see no reason to believe that would be the case. Being an atheist in a society where that makes you a social pariah is likely to affect your happiness, whereas if you can be an atheist without any negative consequences, then it's easy to be happy.

@Aella_Girl "Valued" is much too vague a term. Depending on the context, it's one or the other.

[I'm so Dane @Nikolaj777]

@Aella_Girl My kindness and empathy is fine, so doubling it would do no good. It's dimishkng returns at that point. If I had a lot more money, I would use them to be kind

@the1janitor Grease, Happy Days, and The Wonder Years come to mind. Is that the sort of nostalgia you mean?

@minttearose @annethegnome @Megatronic13 It is very hard not to. They are hard to find though, at least here in Denmark. But when you do, it'll always be a huge find, which is why it's always such a treat to come across them.

[I'm so Dane @Nikolaj777]

@annethegnome @Megatronic13 And who can deny the beauty of the king of the forest: Karl Johan (edible bolete). We Danes use the Swedish nickname for the edible bolete, which comes from the Swedish king who loved them so much he spent a fortune trying to grow them. But they will only grow wild in the woods.

@annethegnome @Megatronic13 Not all mushrooms are lookers, but few bring me as much joy when I see them as these: chicken of the woods. They kill the trees they grow on (unless they are dead already), so foresters don't like them, but as the name suggests they are some of the best edible mushrooms around

@AlexEdelman @scalzi ...and weird and wild characters. It's definitely the world building that's the driving force, but it's not hard Sci-fi in the vein of Andy Weir. It's more sociology, and existential philosophy that drives Banks. But it's wonderful.

Start with Player of Games and go from there.

[I'm so Dane @Nikolaj777]

@AlexEdelman @scalzi Iain M. Banks is amazing, and I don't know of anyone who's read him who isn't a fan. But it's pretty different science fiction. At the heart of it are big filosophical questions, that are posed by the wild science, but what drives the books are more language, literary tricks...1/

I'm glad native English speakers had this problem too. I thought it was just me.
