Sorry yโall for the verbosity. I was feeling on a roll last night.
@LaRaza1538@dfossier In the case of New Orleans specifically, bienville lead an initial expedition with about 35 men. While about 20 of them were in a prisoner labor gang, their exact ethnic composition was unknown.
How do yall feel about blocking in general? I donโt usually block people unless theyโve devolved into insults or are making threats against me or other people.
Otherwise(as Iโm sure yall have figured out) Iโll engage and have the โback &forthโ with people I disagree with

@burnside_brett The idea that you would be victimized and then a judge would award her the kids is crazy, not to mention insist you be the one to pay the child support
@burnside_brett Itโs certainly not been fun, if indeed the pretext of โJasonโsโ return from Colorado is more fact that fiction, I too am sorry to hear of your circumstances
@burnside_brett I canโt help but wonder if depression is conflated with melancholia, a phenomena while not pleasant, is renown in centuries past for its fertility to strikes of genius. I donโt know that I would want to suppress or dull melancholia

They used to attribute โeureka!โ Moments to the muses who โsang to meโ
@burnside_brett Melancholia used to be understood as a state of mind which engendered genius (genius in the classical sense not the 135 IQ sense used today) or atleast an enthogenic state of mind through which genius could take root
@burnside_brett I could see it going a couple of fun directions.
Are you thinking something more natural, super natural? Or something that could be plausibly either depending upon how the audience wants to interpret it?
