On the rare instance they acknowledge it, they usually use phrases like "defending innocent life" as a way to differentiate why it's totally OK to execute anyone who crosses their arbitrarily defined line from innocence to guilt.

PT6A posted:"I just have an interest in history, is all!" Side note: it's also a hard read because he was a really lovely author and in so far as anyone edited it, it was Hess and other toadies who didn't dare change anything. quote:Even though I obviously consider the study of horrible, horrible bastards to be acceptable, I have never once thought to myself: what would improve my understanding of this figure, and why he did the horrible things he did, is some memorabilia associated with his life and crimes. Perhaps some nice linens." I have never thought that, because it's a perfectly insane thing to think. There is no historical value to this trash, it illuminates nothing, and you can simply throw it in the bin. Like, if you have a Nazi napkin because you killed a Nazi and then you did the "wipe yo'self off, man, you dead!" thing like the cool Black guy from Rush Hour, fine. Any other reason, no. It is also acceptable to collect things like that if you are Lemmy. Otherwise, yes.

PT6A posted:I think pretty much all the major booze companies are ostensibly pro-LGBTQ because, as it turns out, a lot of people in that community drink -- and probably more, preferring higher-margin premium brands (not to rely too much on stereotypes), compared to a bunch of shitkickers in Bumfuck, Iowa whose idea of a good time is a Kid Rock concert. It's the better bet, because it makes the brand look better to non-shitheads, and the shitheads will be back drinking bud light in a couple weeks anyway.

And he followed it up with an attempt to run him through but the light dress weapon bent double instead of penetrating deeply.

KORNOLOGY posted:I don't want to research it; but, was there a market for homeopathy branding of any sort in Europe circa 1800? Most sources I've read place its origins in the very early nineteenth century, and the "theory" behind it ("like cures like") to quack physician Christian Friedrich Samuel Hahnemann who first published on the subject in 1796. He got lucky when the Hanoverian monarchs of England found out and popularized his ideas, which inserted them more into what passed for mainstream medical thought in those days. edit: got my dynasties confused, the Stuarts were long gone by the time Hahnemann was doing his thing.

KORNOLOGY posted:Okay, perfect response. But my degenerate butt wanted to know if there was a prototypical homeopathy-brand millionaire way back when that wasn't astroturfed by nobles. I'd be surprised? While there were non-noble rich people in those days, wealth was very class-aligned and if you made/got a lot of money somehow a title would be among the first things you'd buy or otherwise seek to acquire.

Gyges posted:Sex is sinful. That's all of it. Probably the Devil making it feel good. However a good Christian woman never enjoys it(mostly because the horrific ignorance and indoctrinated revulsion means it's supposed to be strictly missionary style and the fewer strokes it takes for him to finish the better). Interestingly, the original Puritans believed that conception required the woman to orgasm, and so the most repressed, controlling sect of colonial-era America probably were among the more progressive in that one, narrow aspect of sexual experience.
