Cant remember the name of the particular story but there's actually a myth centered around a Blót where basically a war chief is destined by the Norns to be sacrificed. They try to trick the gods and it goes bad for him.

It's a pretty old term so it technically has three different pronunciations bloot like blood, blot like to to blot out the sun, and blut like blunt without the n. Though you'd have to ask someone who is a bit more familiar with medieval Germanic languages.

Pretty sure there's also some stoic philosophers who made such observations. Also I'm pretty sure Diogenes said something like that if not in words then in spirit.

Pretty sure you described Tom form Myspace, dude got his money and GTFOd.

I propose Blót. Hanged speared then we feast, but not on the corpse that's for Odin.

Ya know I can't particularly put into words the emotions that I currently feel having read your comment. But I can say what I wish to do, I wish to rend the flesh of profligate filth with mine fucking teeth.

Shut up, then eat shit and die.

I feel like it'd be better to post the picture of her house.

The Latin and Greek speaking parts of the world probably had a word for purple by that point. Remember the Angles, Saxons, and Jutes who would evolve into the medieval Anglo-Saxons were from around modern continental Denmark to about the modern Hanover region. This area didn't really have the color purple all that much and frankly speaking Britain ain't much better on that front, probably why it took till around the viking age to get a word for it since that's when pan European trade started to pick up again to a large enough degree for purple dyes to start getting to Britain on a regular basis.

It's because it's a less distinct element from blue than red is to yellow. It's kinda like how someone can tell the difference between a heavy machine and a pistol but they may not be able to tell the difference between a rifle and a shotgun.

Aye that's the spirit.

Probably better to keep California, Washington and Oregon independent and to instead try to setup something like the schengen zone for California, Washington, Oregon, Mexico, Canada, and whatever East Coast regions join up. Mind you I am highly biased as a Californian nationalist and much like the nationalists of the 1800s who wished to bring down the old empires I really don't want to be ruled by some dickhead on the other side of the continent.
