Title: Fate Through Paper  Rating: Teen Chapter Index Under the Cut

Summary: The life of a bibliophile is fraught with many discoveries. Every new book is a new treasure and a way to ease away the loneliness that can weigh upon the back of many. However, for Dazai Osamu, editor at the Agency Publishing House in Tokyo, this incessant want for books led him to find a strange European doll accompanied with two peculiar items. As in a fairy tale, a fated encounter brings forth a journey through the world.

litany against the GOTification of history.

[natequarter]

thomas cromwell grieved when his daughters died; thomas more made sure his eldest daughter received a quality education. elizabeth i kept a portrait of her mother inside a locket ring; edward vi wrote to his half-sister mary i that "i love you most." stephen of blois (no, not that one, the other one), who fled from the siege of antioch in disgrace, was berated by his wife to go back on crusade, whom he trusted enough to leave as regent in the time he was away. the average medieval peasant did not marry at twelve; those kinds of marriages were uncommon even among the nobility. it's difficult to provide insights on lower class citizens and their lifestyles, since little concrete evidence remains compared to the upper classes, but people have always been fundamentally people, whether rich and modern or late antiquity and poor or georgian and bored.

Top ten worst anime tiddies

just off the top of my head

[thegaymertrainer]

Seems appropriate this evening

[5norlax]

Surprised you forgot these two

[official-mugi-two]

God I love anime

[nopostradio]

Worst? Or best?

[gsirvitor]

[disgruntled-foreign-patriarch]

what the fuck

[gsirvitor]

Wait till you find out the girl with pink braids, and tits larger than her head, is 11 years old.

[disgruntled-foreign-patriarch]

[writteninsomnia]

Don’t forget how Diebuster’s anime tiddies were animated at basically at 60 FPS.

Done by no other than Studio Gainax of Evangelion fame.

[capitalism-and-analytics]

Never been a fan of NDT, but if you’re going to be a major public figure to represent the science community, then you can’t be making fundamental statistical blunders like that…

[shadowfromthestarlight]

This from the man who wants to establish a country called “Rationalia” lmao.

[dankmemes-deepdreams]

Please say that “Rationalia” is a thing you made up…

So much for evidence

[assoc-of-free-people]

Neil, like all other pop-science guys, are in their position for cynical political purposes.

[repentant-retard-xii]

One of these days I’ll make a twitter just to ask him when modern medicine will be able to remove his ass from Carl Sagan’s coattails

[pisswallet]

“You made it up thanks” GET HIS ASS LMAOOO

[stillnotpoliticallycorrect-deac]

Unless you’re a low-info dim who believes whatever is put out there, just reading this “statistic” would be enough to tell you it’s made up.

[smithanon]

Scientific information is not derived from individual consensus, it’s derived from Data. That data MUST BE TESTABLE AND REPEATABLE. It MUST be questioned, frequently re-examined, and TESTED in order to remain scientifically rational. Pop science is not fucking science. It’s infotainment. And it’s usually not very well researched.

[writteninsomnia]

Sincerely, a researcher.

[writteninsomnia]

Time to get the last batch of applications for a Ph.D. into the US in.

Still hoping I get into Princeton though.

[stayuglystayangry-deactivated20]

do not meet up with anyone from Massachusetts in real life

they could very well be a medium regular ice coffee from dunkin donuts

I’m from Connecticut excuse me

[writteninsomnia]

Does that mean that you’re like Connecticut Clark?

[celtic-pyro-deactivated20230725]

Y’all will cry “cultural appropriation” for white women twerking but want to joke about how cool ~the aesthetics~ are of a religion you hate.

No, fuck you, you’re not allowed to like the ~aesthetics~ unless you’re Catholic yourself or if you actually can learn to respect Catholicism.

[da-boy-o-kultur]

What if we used to be Catholic but kinda gave up on it because of the hypocrisy and criminality?

[celtic-pyro-deactivated20230725]

“Guys what if we had the iconography, the hymns, the incense and the symbolism but without what any of those things are meant to represent?”

Well, that’d be like wanting a girlfriend but not a living one. You want all the material benefits and none of the purpose behind them. You want a corpse. You’re the religious equivalent of a necrophiliac.

[kasaron]

As a (amateaur) wordsmith, HOLY FUCK, that shit SLAPS.

Frantically googling whether Nolan's Oppenheimer is a real movie

[disgruntled-foreign-patriarch]

BOO

[writteninsomnia]

Well is it a real movie?

I GOT A FUCKING RAISE THE POTATO WORKED WTF

[tattooedzombigirl]

This potato works. Every. Fucking. Time.

[reallyndacarter]

I would enjoy some good luck from the potato.

[colleendoran]

I need some luck right now, so all hail the Lucky Potato. Do your magic, Potato. I respect you so much I am capitalizing the "P" in Potato.

Bucket List Item:

Make a transatlantic crossing from Europe to America.

[getawarrant]

by ship or air?

[disgruntled-foreign-patriarch]

ship. Done air multiple times. Nothing special.

[writteninsomnia]

You know what? Based. I actually have been thinking of doing that as well one day along with handwriting several pages of letters during the give-or-take weeks long voyage.

Also been thinking about buying an old school dip ink pen.

Private audit came out in Brazil about the machines and the audit has confirmed that voting machines made in 2009, 2011, 2013, and 2015 have shown to have a spoofing code.

So they would show that the code used in the 2020 voting machines were used, as claimed by the electoral courts, when a different one was used. Bolsonaro’s party is calling for an annulment of the elections.

The same day a very highly respected general called Villa-Lobos basically made a veiled threat/demand that the Supreme Court stop pulling this shit and stop talking shit about the Brazilian armed forces while in the United States.

The plot thickens. @writteninsomnia is this accurate

[writteninsomnia]

Accurate. Exception comes that the general’s name is Villa-Boas, not Villa Lobos.

Just now the President of Supreme Court blocked the financial resources of 42 Agrobusinesses with no judicial processes involved. This already triggered full strike by the truck drivers starting tomorrow.

[disgruntled-foreign-patriarch]

It just got revealed that Brazil’s voting machines never kept votes a secret. For the last 25 years the electoral courts in Brazil were able to track who voted for who

I see. So what are the implications?

[writteninsomnia]

Basically, the machines were unconstitutional from the start since all voted should be secret.

The last 25 years of government have basically been illegitimate by this alone. So uh… people are even more pissed.

Even more information about the machines will come out today as well. And it just looks like they’re digging themselves deeper and going to force the military, especially since Bolsonaro got blocked in naming a few people for government even as current president.

That is what is called a “White Coup D’etat.”

[writteninsomnia]

I got like three asks one my mail. I’ll be answering them soon, let me just figure out my schedule. Two of them are very technical since they deal with Brazilian demographics and voting patterns.

Btw, I predicted to an election campaign director from the US what I predicted if Lula want. And again right on the money

[writteninsomnia]

@friendly-neighborhood-patriarch

Ok, I have recovered from my post-wedding inebriation and dancing all night. From where do I start about the whole Lula stuff? Cause I got material for days just from the economics side on how he will just utterly destroy Brazilian economy with lefty policies.

[disgruntled-foreign-patriarch]

Brazil is about to have its Biden Moment

[disgruntled-foreign-patriarch]

let me elaborate:

geriatric hard Left career political operator who likely scammed and cheated his way into a presidency.

Only it’s worse. He’s a convicted corrupt felon who should be in prison til the end of his days.

I’m not big on that country’s politics though. I look to @writteninsomnia to fill in any details

[writteninsomnia]

I would elaborate right now on what the hell happened and how my studying exile to the US next might also become a political one; but I just got back from a wedding. I refused to let that bad news to dampen my mood.

So right now I have a business meeting soon and a hang over to nurse. Give me a day and I’ll fill in the details on what happened in all of the silly sad details.
