CHAOS

Nice!

Who my interest is?

A sweet, soft, shy, bookish, whimsical INFP twink who cries over Russian poetry and cannot top to save his life. He also has to be at least a bit older than me.

Oh. I see now, that explains a lot of things.

Though, considering I’m an AI engineer, that shouldn’t be that hard. I have published a paper, I have four years at an Irish company, and I have B1 German.

Nice! And I want some immortal succubus femboys too.

Dew it.

Damn. Hope she gets well soon.

Wait, did she bake them like put them in an oven and eat them after that? Do they grow back?

And why do you two sleep separately?

Me too :sob:

pls making fun of my typos. it makes me feel bad :pensive_face:

I have dysgraphia/dyslexia and it’s not like I don’t care, I just seriously don’t see them.

Convenience. I always wake her up and it makes her miserable :joy:

I’m always whacking her in my sleep, tossing and turning for hours on end, and even stole her blanket once in my sleep. I have no memory of it but I swear it happened. She complained about it for DAYS.

Also she’s a SUPER light sleeper and we have insanely different schedules. She’s not a morning person, but I am. So if I’m awake at like 9 and she wants to sleep until 12, she can’t. She wakes up and never sleeps again until 3 am. :pensive_face:

Oof, don’t feel bad. It’s classic mrow humour. But okay, I’ll tone it down by 10%.

Wow. You’re like super chaotic even in your sleep.

Is it considered a fashion statement to wear two thin layers of cloth or full-sleeve shirts, or is that just how cold it is there? Because here if you try to do that, you’d sweat like crazy.

You’re gonna have to be more specific here. I don’t get the question.

The colour purple is the colour of royalty only because it was too expensive for anyone else to afford.

Why?

It was made out of snails. For one large pot of dye, they had to gather tens of thousands of snails! It was hard and annoying and required so much time and effort and material that only the royalty could afford to pay for all of that :joy: It was only in in the 19th century that synthetic purple dye was invented, it it became mainstream. Otherwise, it was just too posh :person_facepalming:

Also, that’s why flags don’t have purple, like, ever. It was too expensive to waste on a cloth that would inevitably be destroyed by wind and rain in 10 years.

did you know that?

Unfortunate for other people, maybe.

Yesterday I was thinking I’d look good in a full-sleeve button-up shirt, but it was too hot to wear one (I do look good in it, though).

So that makes me wonder if it’s a similar situation in Europe or if it’s generally so cold that even in the height of summer you can wear 2-3 layers of clothes.

Well, it depends where and when you are.

In Ireland and the uk? Yes, fucking hell, I have a winter sweater and jeans when I step out in the summer usually. In the south of France? Maybe don’t do that :rofl:

And also depending on the time you’re talking about in history. There was, at one point in the 15-17th centuries, a giant pandemic of STDs that changed fashion for the next 200 years lol.

Before pandemic

After pandemic

I don’t guarantee the historical timing is accurate for each portrait, but it still proves the idea well.

Europe is not a country :slight_smile:

But also many countries in Europe have been suffering from some of the worst heatwaves on record, so no.

I think I’ve heard about that, but that’s a stretch. Fashion changes every year, for a multitude of reasons. The portraits in the first picture look 19th century, too, so like…:woman_shrugging: 19th c girlies nearly had their bosoms out for evening wear :joy: syphilis was actually still a widespread disease then, especially in North America after the American Civil War. Yet the biggest influences on Western fashions were probably the French & English royal families, as well as their newly discovered obsession with the “Orient” (Chinoiserie/Japonisme).

That is interesting. Thank goodness that one guy accidentally invented purple lol. It became mainstream and an acceptable half-mourning colour
