BAP has accidentally reinvented the Investiture Controversy and you’re dooming?
Allowing the communist pope to elect church officials within the United States is an attack on American national sovereignty…only the elected representative of the American people should appoint bishops and such

Lol when I went there they had a light show which ended like this
Binbirdirek (“Thousand and One Columns”) Cistern, once located near the Hippodrome of Constantinople, is the second largest surviving covered cistern in modern Istanbul. It is often identified as the Cistern of Philoxenos known from textual sources.

@hope_pead Sicily and Sardinia as the Italian Manichaean event ontology: on the one, all things Happen; on the other, nothing ever truly has. And yet from Sardinia came the Risorgimento; within the deepest Nothing is still the greatest Happening. Yin and yang.

Calvinist athletes be like “God reprobated my team before the beginning of time. We deserved it. What glory there is in His total sovereignty!”
Curious that talented athletes frequently credit God when they win, but we rarely see them blame God when they lose.

@also_psyche It’s also not like Tolkien’s world is less of a pastiche lol. The Hobbit starts with a Odin as a wanderer visiting a gnome who acts like a 19th century Englishman

@royllovians I guess you *could* get nom, acc, and gen-dat back by comparing Old French and Romanian, but I’m not sure how you’d separate the genitive and dative out again tbh

Actually Arthur should be dressed in late medieval armor because that’s when Le Mort d’Arthur was written and medieval artists usually depicted historical figures anachronistically
“All the heavy armor we associate with the Middle Ages isn’t from the Middle Ages; it’s from the 15th Century. King Arthur didn’t dress like that. He dressed like a savage with a leather hide for armor.”

@GnomeBasedman this guy unironically thinks the Proto Indo Europeans didn’t exist because if they did that would be racist, and as a corollary he also thinks their language wasn’t real either. in historical linguistics this is like being a flat earther
