back in the regency era they couldn't afford recency bias yet because it was so long ago. they had regency bias instead.

are you mad at me: deconstructive, assumes the other person’s feelings, accusatory more than inquisitive
do you want me to kill myself: broaches a problem and solution in one, prioritizes action over feelings, proactive in seeking a resolution

we need to study the art of rhetoric again in school. all 13 years. this can't go on
#yeah yeah we write essays but first of all it's not the same thing#and second of all I don't know about you but by the third year they didn't correct ours anymore#they just put votes on the tests one and we didn't practice at all in between#so it was as useful as doing nothing#but writing's one thing and talking is another#and people can't talk for shit#which reminds me I need to start reading up on rhetoric because I'm simply coasting on a lifetime#of being a good speaker but it fails me sometimes and I don't want it to#but even so I have to listen to other people and some of them make my ears bleed#personal#I'm starting to see why everyone says I'm arrogant but in this at least I'm actually very much right

It's honestly a shame that you can't bash someone's head into a wall without killing them or giving them brain damage

Tyrian purple (fig 1) is a shade of purple that was used in the ancient world to signify royalty and luxury.
This shade is extracted from the sea snail Muricidae (fig 2). Although the actual method of extraction has not yet been duplicated, historians guess that the murex snails were left to decay in the sun after which the dye was easier to remove (fig 3). The stench was disgusting and smelled like rotting bodies.
The color was first discovered in Phoenecia around 1570 BC, and went on to be used by Ancient Greek and Roman royalty. Murex purple symbolized decadence because it was so expensive and inaccessible, and anti-sumptuary laws were often put into place to block the average person from attaining it
In fig 4, Murex purple is displayed in an 11th century Byzantine robe.
