God I can't wait for the Nerd Wars. Towers crumbling, fires in the night. I'll be the first over the wall of the googleplex, their tomato plants and aspartame crushed under my cushioned tennies, their last flimsy barricade of roller chairs and legless Japanese style IKEA tables smashed apart. Justine Tunny cowers behind her desk as I stalk into I.T, the rags of my letterman jacket flowing past my legs. She chokes as her google glasses chime "you have one new like," giving her away. I spin and grab her wrist before she can pull it back. "HEY NERD," my voice is the furnace blast of a dragon's hiss. I twist her arm back and tap her knuckles to her face. "STOP HITTING YOURSELF. STOP HITTING YOURSELF. STOP HITTING YOURSELF."

Charles II (Spanish: Carlos II) (6 November 1661 – 1 November 1700) was the last Habsburg ruler of Spain. His realm included Southern Netherlands and Spain's overseas empire, stretching from the Americas to the Spanish East Indies. Known as "the Bewitched" (Spanish: el Hechizado), he is noted for his extensive physical, intellectual, and emotional disabilities—along with his consequent ineffectual rule.

Charles was born in the Spanish capital, Madrid, the son of Philip IV of Spain and his second wife, Mariana of Austria (also known as Maria Anna). As the only surviving male heir of his father's two marriages, Charles was named Prince of Asturias, the title given to the person first in line to the Spanish throne.

Charles did not learn to speak until the age of four nor to walk until eight, and was treated as virtually an infant until he was ten years old. Fearing the frail child would be overtaxed, his caretakers did not force Charles to attend school. The indolence of the young Charles was indulged to such an extent that at times he was not expected to be clean. When his half-brother Don Juan José of Austria, an illegitimate son of Philip IV, obtained power by exiling the queen mother from court, he covered his nose and insisted that the king at least brush his hair.

Toward the end of his life Charles' fragile health deteriorated and he became increasingly hypersensitive and strange, at one point demanding that the bodies of his family be exhumed so he could look upon the corpses. He officially retired when he had a nervous breakdown caused by the amount of pressure put on him to try to pull Spain out of the economic trouble it was going through. He lived a simple life from then on, playing games and other activities. He died in Madrid on 1 November 1700, five days before his 39th birthday. The physician who practiced his autopsy stated that his body "did not contain a single drop of blood; 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."

As the American historians Will and Ariel Durant put it, Charles II was "short, lame, epileptic, senile, and completely bald before 35, he was always on the verge of death, but repeatedly baffled Christendom by continuing to live."

Human biological diversity

quote:

By the time of Charles's birth there had been many generations of inbreeding within the Spanish royal house; his physical and mental disabilities are widely attributed to this inbreeding. The practice of first-cousin and uncle-niece marriages was common among 17th-century European nobility, intended to preserve prosperous families' properties. Charles's own immediate pedigree was almost exclusively populated with close relative relationships: Charles's mother, Mariana of Austria, herself a Habsburg, was a niece of his father, Philip. Mariana was a daughter of Empress Maria Anna of Spain (1606–46) and Emperor Ferdinand III. Thus Maria Anna was simultaneously his aunt and grandmother while Margaret of Austria, Maria Anna's mother, was both his grandmother and great-grandmother. The inbreeding was so widespread in his case that all of his eight great-grandparents were descendants of Joanna and Philip I of Castile. This inbreeding had given many in the family hereditary weaknesses. That Habsburg generation was more prone to still-births than were peasants in Spanish villages.

There was also insanity in Charles's family. His great-great-great (-great-great, depending along which lineage is counted) grandmother, Queen Joanna of Castile, became insane early in life and became known as "Joanna the Mad"; it is debated, however, to what degree her "madness" was induced by her confinement and political intrigues targeting her. Joanna's parents, Isabella I of Castile and Ferdinand II of Aragon, were only distantly related. Joanna was two of Charles' 16 (mathematical) great-great-great-grandmothers, six of his 32 great-great-great-great-grandmothers, and six of his 64 great-great-great-great-great-grandmothers.

Dating to approximately the year 1550, outbreeding in Charles II's lineage had ceased (see also pedigree collapse. From then on, all his ancestors were in one way or another descendants of Joanna and Philip I of Castile, and among these just the royal houses of Spain, Austria and Bavaria. Charles II's genome was actually more homozygous than that of a child whose parents are siblings.[4] He was born physically and mentally disabled, and disfigured. Possibly through affliction with mandibular prognathism, he was unable to chew.[4] His tongue was so large that his speech could barely be understood, and he frequently drooled. It has been suggested that he suffered from the endocrine disease acromegaly, or his inbred lineage may have led to a combination of rare genetic disorders such as combined pituitary hormone deficiency and distal renal tubular acidosis.

You better shut your whore mouth and pray that she comes back, or I will hold you personally responsible. I want this thread to last forever, so that no matter how bad my day is, I can look at it and remind myself that I am not a reborn Spanish Hapsburg like this wood nymph with a mean streak is.

The using the real name plus tweeting as if you're speaking for google is a bad decision

justine did actually tell me once that i should be using my real name on twitter, which i did for all of like 5 minutes before i just went gently caress this and went back to a screen-name.

Pollyanna posted:

i highly doubt she got fired, she's probably just been told to knock it off

tbqh i think her whole thing about GOOGLE IS GREAT I SPEAK FOR GOOGLE is because they offered her money when she was getting cancer treatment, so she's rather attached to them. i mean, i can understand why, but trying to suck up to a company never ever goes well. she'd be well-served by making herself out to speak on an individual level rather than flying a banner everywhere.

imho nobody should wish anybody to be homeless because it's a bad and inexcusable thing, but while it is weak as poo poo for companies to fire people for saying bad words on twitter that make them look bad to no meaningful end (google is in real trouble here guys), i also ultimately do not give a poo poo if a bad person who has reprehensible opinions gets fired regardless of her place on the oppression hierarchy

maybe they can replace her with a trans who isn't evil and retarded
