He survived. See the pink triangle Nazis obliged him to wear. Poor, poor man. Tell us more about his life.

Because you have to go cough-cough to explain this kind of dress is offensive in a medical surgery setting. Patients can be shocked by the display. That there are good reasons as why yourself wear pants and nurses dresses have a certain length. And the trainee looks at you like you were weird.

We all have a choice. Cry because he is gone or be thankful he was given to us regardless of the length of time it was. Prince and the Revolution - When Doves Cry (Official Video) youtu.be/UG3VcCAlUgE?...

Werewolves participating to Spelling Bees. I love it! Imagining little werebees. Werebees? I just see it. Werewolves frolicking in forests feasting in werebee honey. Define cuties. Giggles.

In turn it may explain why slaves were able to earn money to buy their freedom. Happy slaves make happy staff caring well for one's business. Certainly it induces a re-vision, a re-writing on Rome. Thanks @jem-duducu.bsky.social for opening this door to a proto-capitalist Roman economy world.

Another example of us missing this corporate aspect of Rome is the notion it was taking 7 letters of recommendation to grant a bishopric. In turn, it implies somebody was hired to store said 7 letters. It implies a lot of secretaries, assistants, librarians etc. All of them could have been slaves🧵⬇️

to ours. Pyramids built on small business regrouping slowly to the top with billionaires of rehab. All without software, computers but rows upon rows of papyri. Mind you, bearing in mind Merovingian kings had books collecting income tax payers names (actual people were collecting these names)⬇️ 🧵

Getting it. Building then scavenging. Scavenging not being time limited to lets say the post-imperial period. Our era is a concrete firework of sort, concrete not being rehabilitated but in Rome, stone. marble could be re-used again & again. Coming from all places of the empire. A universe closer⬇️🧵

The poking pink tongue of the werewolf is all shades of adowable. (as per the pronunciation of a very young, very dear relative). I vowe you, mommy. Sweet memories.

On the plus side... 1945 Germany was named & rightly shamed. It was the Germans who were evil and the world had to be protected from them. 2025 USA speaks and is ready to act like 1933 Germany. 2025 Germany is relieved to know it is not systematically evil. Shall we mention Israel & Gaza?
