Dumnezeu este dragoste „Inima omului e flămândă să iubească şi e însetată să fie iubită. Cel mai mare chin al omului este această foame şi sete ciudată când nu iubește şi nu este iubit şi care la limită este neputința de a trăi fără viață, fără Dumnezeu, adică fără dragoste”. „Sfânta poruncă a dragostei are această îndoită înfățișare şi ne dăm seama dacă dragostea care se însuflețește este…

My rewrites for TRE characters in my fanfic

so about 6 months ago I fell into the Au pipeline and it ended up resulting in a bunch of stories that's basically if maximalism was a 7 season long book series. One of those seasons combines tons of characters from different manhwas I read but it's mostly a new interpretation of remarried empress with some Oc's.

Navier

One major change I made is that Navier isn't the protagonist anymore but I didn't want her to be a cold blooded villain either. If you ever went on history tik tok specifically the tudors and the French revolution, there's a lot of people who romanticize Anne Boleyn to the extremes of villainzing Jane Seymour or babying Marie Antoinette as a sweet coquette girly who was unfairly killed by "savage revolutionaries" or claiming Elizabeth I as a feminist girlboss who only wanted to end her fathers bloodline. These historic women weren't the most awful people and they definitely were victims but that doesn't mean they didn't have noticeable flaws that affected the lives of others. That's the direction I went for my version of Navier, she still cares for her loved ones and makes good decisions but she was raised with a classist mindset, not pouring wine on maids and poor people but viewing them as emotionless husks with only one purpose which explains her apathy to slaves. I also gave Navier a backstory beyond wanting to be a perfect empress which was a relationship with her mother that is inspired by Catherine the greats relationship with her mother, so yeah not very great. Unlike the original she is fully aware of what Heinrey is doing but she barely cares (not much of a change from the original tbh) the goal is that I still want Navier to be a little likeable while also making her complex and realistic as an empress.

Sovieshu

I didn't give Sovieshu as many changes and for the most part, he's the same as he was in the original: a toxic partner who pushes his faults on other people around him. In this version though instead of becoming cold and cruel to Navier to moment Rashta shows up, the two have already been drifting apart for a while and it only got worse when Navier had a miscarriage a year prior to the story. Sovieshu is more of a cautionary tale of how misogyny is encouraged in boys at a young age, in his youth, Sovieshu had all the love of his mother since his parents struggled to conceive and only had one son. He wanted his father's love more than anything but Osis was about as interested as you'd expect, only wanting his son to be a great Emperor and nothing else, to please him, Sovieshu started to emulate the misogynistic views of the men around him which grew to be his actual beliefs. The only person that kept Sovieshu from turning into his dad was the former empress until she takes her own life, leaving Sovieshu with Osis as his influence. I still want Sovieshu to remain a scumbag but it will be more of a tragedy in how the future generations can never improve if we continue the cycle of abuse.

Rashta

I think Rashta is the most altered out of all the original characters since she's not even a villainess but rather a sort of anti hero. Her past as a slave is more fleshed out, her childish manner is age regressing to try to gain back her stolen childhood and she doesn't try to befriend Navier after getting the message that Navier wants nothing to do with her. In this version she's the best friend and later love interest of the new protagonist who bottles up her past and feelings to please others so she can keep her cozy life in the palace and that becomes a problem as the lack of care causes Rashta to grow more depressed and even has a few panic attacks. She won't do a good portion of the horrible acts she does in the original since she now had actual friends and because some of her sins are just so contrived to make her hateable, but she still is petty and holds grudges so she doesn't feel too bad when she ruins Nians marriage or snubs Lebetti, she'll even be conflicted since she feels guilty that the slaves on the Rimwell estate are still suffering but she doesnt want to risk being removed as concubine if she tries to call for slaves rights but she does find her voice and will start to push for slaves to be freed mid-way through her term as the empress of the eastern empire. In the end, Rashta does become Empress of a different empire after spending a good 7 years healing from her trauma and getting a good education, she lives her days with her kids and dies at the age of 81

Heinrey

Hes one the main antagonists here, I kept his love for his wife and family though but it's not an "uwu my queen!" Or really anything puppy like. For Heinrey I wanted to make him a true white lotus and he's has more vibes of a comforting friend with soft mannerisms and tones in voice, he loves Navier dearly because I still think even monsters like him can fall in love but the reason he tortures and kills people who don't side with Navier isn't even because he's that adamant about Naviers honor but rather because if someone were to find out his sadistic nature to those who disagree with him, he can use the "puppy husabnd" excuse to appear as a sadistic sweetheart. It not only scares the shit of his people into respecting him but it also wins him a little sympathy points since "he's just a hopeless romantic" I wanted Heinrey to appear uncanny too, like you know somethings off about him but if you said anything people would just be like "what are you talking about? He just really loves his family." His death is also pretty brutal, naturally Heinrey makes a lot of enemies and during a war arc he is shot down while in bird form leaving him at the mercy of a former maid he pushed over the deep end, she offs him, plucks him, cooks him, and serves him to the remaining family members of Lazlo.

and that's only the main 4, I did almost all of them with the exception of McKenna since he's honestly the only good character thats written well in remarried empress.

My mind was absolutely reeling last night from that picture Maxim posted of him, Lloyd, and Charlie that I realized something a bit spoilerly. :D We've gotten spoilers that Charlie's Halbrand form of Sauron is going to be clean-shaven now in season 2 and seeing the 3 of them like that I realized not only does this weirdly make it that the 3 of them look alike with similar hairstyles but that was the popular hairstyle for the kings in the late Wars of the Roses, one of my favorite historical periods that I study and read/watch about. If you look at the actual portraits of Edward IV, Richard III, and Henry VII they all had the same shoulder length hair and were clean-shaven (plus the first two were brothers and the 3rd their distant cousin who married the first's daughter).

Then it also reminded me of how I realized while watching the show and finally reading "The Silmarillion" that a lot of it is similar to The Wars of the Roses especially with Galadriel's family being so similar to the Plantagenets dividing into the Houses of York and Lancaster, the whole Three Sons of York/Noldor and using the sun as part of their symbol, the seemingly endless battles and sides switching for power, and then an arranged Tudor marriage that turned into a real loving one that actually ended it between Elizabeth of York (who lost her brothers and so many family members due to all this) and Henry VII. It's why I wrote that Haladriel "Queen of Hearts, King of Spades" as I actually wonder if Tolkien was inspired by this too to create the 1st and 2nd Ages. Then adding in that Charlie confirmed part of his audition as Halbrand/Sauron was reading from Shakespeare's "Richard III" as Richard III. LOL Even though those of us who study it know since they found Richard III's actual remains that Shakespeare fictionalized a lot and made him more evil and deformed as the real Richard only had scoliosis which only a few would've even known about at the time and was easily hidden (And I say this as someone who likes the Tudors but know they put out a lot of slander against Richard after Henry took over and yes I still think he ordered the nephews murders but likely regretted it. As they say the truth is likely a version of both Tudor and Ricardian histories combined).

So again with spoilers it seems interesting that this is going to be Halbrand's look in season 2 and that he seems to be keeping his King of the Southlands persona which likely is to recruit the men and the dwarves to his side. And then seeing the 3 of them like this also why it makes sense he keeps Halbrand as his main form when he goes back to Númenor in the future and the downfall. Then mentioning again that Aragorn is the descendant of Isildur and Elendil and that Sauron's Halbrand form looks like him too. :)

ETA: Fellowship of Fans has now posted again that picture and saying that they're taking it as confirmation about Halbrand's new clean-shaven look in season 2. LOL :D

[edmundhoward]

I remember reading that after Jane's death, there was still something in the Tudor palace with her initials printed on it... (plates or something like that?)

there are a few surviving references to jane seymour but i think what you’re referring to is this quote from gareth russell:

“katherine’s [howard] table was set with jane’s golden spoons, silver plates for spices, crystal glasses speckled with rubies, and a golden goblet, decorated with diamonds and pearls, that bore queen jane’s maxim ‘bound to obey and serve’.”

for which he cites the inventory of henry viii.

[james-vi-stan-blog]

Ok my personal response to The King’s Assassin. From the perspective of a layperson who is not in any form a historian, merely a fan of James VI/I. Edit I also fixed the author’s name in my post, I dunno HOW I messed that up, fever scrambled my branes.

I don’t hate the book, and it would be wildly arrogant of me to say “it’s bad! It’s inaccurate!” when I know like 5 things, have read a handful of books and have to scrape my meager knowledge outta JSTOR allowance and what my library has. And overall, I think it actually does a great job of introducing the different factions involved, the shifts in politics as they happen, and presenting loads and LOADS of interesting anecdotes in order of their occurrence. It’s highly readable and takes you on this rollicking adventure through a twisting and turning, but comprehensible narrative.

But… I think that’s its core problem. It’s a narrative. Woolley is telling a story from history, with themes and characters and surprise reveals. Woolley has a particular vision of George Villiers as a villain protagonist with an arc, and writes almost from a third person omniscient perspective. And I think this is to the book’s detriment. The full complexity of human beings, who can’t be boiled down to archetypes and who aren’t on coherent trajectories and don't have arcs, gets flattened.

It’s very, VERY credulous in general. Basically, any rumor that ever existed is included. All accounts are essentially trusted with no interrogation of political slant or provenance. As a James fan, I noticed the unquestioning use of Weldon and Eglisham in particular; since my knowledge is limited I can’t say what other questionable sources were used, but this review calls it out for heavily using an alleged hoax. The epilogue and “““proof””” of the poisoning is especially weird. (Leanda de Lisle's review talks about it. Listen to her, an actual historian who knows actual things, not me)

On the one hand, this maximally inclusive approach brings in all kinds of tales that an unfamiliar reader might not have heard of, giving the most colorful possible account. But I felt that mixing in the extremely dubious sources with the reliable ones, distinguishing them little in the text and using unnumbered endnotes, is really deceptive and misleads the reader about the certainty of the narrative Woolley favors.

As far as what this means for Mary & George… I mean. The book is a titillating account of lurid scandal. And we already knew the series is going to be a titillating account of lurid scandal. Expect the series based on a book that already incorporates fiction and wild speculation to become even more fictionalized and speculative for the sake of drawing in viewers who want to watch and thirst over while also judging bad people who do bad things.

But that’s what all historical dramas are like and have been like forever. Especially the general time period—the Tudors have gotten this treatment forever. Viewership and big bucks don’t come for “documentary with re-enactment”. And in general, people don’t find history worth watching unless there’s butts and boobies.

Sure, I’ll be disappointed if when the drama inserts loads of stuff that definitely never happened for sexXxyness. Yeah, I’ll be bummed out when it conforms to traditional depictions of historical figures that were codified by agenda-laden traditions. But this always happens. And you know, if a bare butt gets someone to watch who would otherwise have never known about the incredible queer drama that played out in the Jacobean court, who probably doesn’t even know Buckingham from the Three Musketeers, I’m happy. Because even though it didn’t happen as M&G is gonna depict it, it did happen in the broad strokes, these people were real, and that’s been largely buried and forgotten.

The world NEEDS TO KNOW ABOUT JAMES. And even if the picture someone comes away with is inaccurate, at least they will know he existed and loved men, and just that fact now being in their brain will please me so much.

Field Perturbation Studies

<`•.°.+`•.•∆| - Field Perturbation Studies

The "Field Perturbation Studies" compositions are a generative sound art piece that explores the boundaries of time and frequency in a stereo field.

The work is generated using a system that creates randomly-sized dimensions, ranging from microsecond to multiple seconds. The dimensional vectors time range is shared across both mono channels, resulting in a temporally synchronized stereo field, although sonically isolated. Using only sinusoidal waves, the frequency range and slope of change, is conditionally generated from 1hz to 88,200hz, based on a variety of data points, and utilize aliasing to create a sweeping effect that reaches 44,100hz before reversing in frequency. The sound generated is also passed through a reverb UGEN with all parameters conditionally varied based on data points assessed in the duration of the dimensional vector, and the state of frequency shifted.

The compositions aim is to create a complex system, using relatively simple elements, and to use that complexity, in an attempt to overwhelm the listener's ability to articulate what is being heard. Ultimately leading the listener to a subconscious state of surrender, from a kind of exhaustion, or analytical fatigue. Playing off the natural tendency of people to attempt prediction of theﾠchanging pattern. Enveloping them in a dynamic, seemingly paradoxical cloud of both maximal and minimal qualities. The work is inspired by long-form artists such as ￉liane Radigue, Pauline Oliveros, La Monte Young, Yoshi Wada and Catherine Christer Hennix. As well as, other systems music pioneers like Maryanne Amacher, David Tudor, Iannis Xenakis, Florian Hecker, Yasunao Tone and Mark Fell. As well as a burgeoning modern scene, of like minded musicians, and artists exploring the very limits of temporal and audible perception. There is an included "Bonus Item" in the downloaded folder. With the compilation output of all 2,077 dimensional vectors in great detail for the "Field Permutation Study (Pointillistic)" composition.ﾠ

But the various crises and disasters in the Christian world since then, the Thirty Years’ War very much included, don’t admit of that kind of tidy interpretation. At the same time the serious Christian can’t just wave away the question, because we’re obliged to believe that history reveals providential intentions and designs.

Indeed, while allowing for the complexity of debates about what God wills as opposed to what God merely permits, providentialism is basically inescapable once you posit a divinity who made the world and acts in history. Which is why providentialist interpretations endure among the most liberal Christians as well as the most traditional, with both progressive and conservative theologies justifying themselves through readings of the “signs of the times,” the seasons of history, the action of the Holy Spirit and the like. (And, of course, many theoretically secular worldviews are possessed of the same providentialism in disguise.)

The more absolutely certain these interpretations, the more dubious. Discerning God’s intentions across an individual lifetime is hard enough; discerning them across the arc of history should be done with maximal humility.

But (humbly, humbly) I do, in fact, have a view of what the Thirty Years’ War and its consequences suggest about God’s actions in the modern world. And also of how that case study differs from the Nazi example — starting with the fact that Christianity was not destroyed in the 1600s, the pope did not commit suicide in a bunker while Rome collapsed around his head, and Christian ideas and Christian leaders were not remembered as icons of absolute depravity in the decades and centuries that followed.

Rather, what was broken in the 17th century was a certain idea of Christendom, a certain kind of political-religious unity — and I think a serious Christian has to see in that breakage some kind of divine judgment on the Christians fighting to sustain that order.

Not necessarily a judgment on the idea of such an order, which would be the liberal-providentialist position — that Christendom had to die so a superior and more secular civilization could replace it. But certainly a judgment on the fratricidal and ruthless ways that both Catholics and Protestants tried to sustain their competing visions of a Christian order. I obviously think the Catholics had the better theological arguments, but God in his wisdom permitted neither side to claim a certain victory, ensuring that any future Christendom would have to be rebuilt along very different lines.

It could have been otherwise; indeed, just the example of England’s religious history shows various ways that providence could have made things smoother for the Catholic side: Catherine of Aragon could have borne her husband a male heir, Mary Tudor could have had a child, she and Cardinal Reginald Pole need not have died together (on the same day!), the Spanish Armada could have triumphed. Even much later on (as I wrote in one of last week’s columns), with better luck and better weather the Jacobite rebellions might have succeeded. One need not claim certainty about God’s purposes to see a repeated closing-of-the-door to certain kinds of Catholic restoration in this story.

But not, crucially, a closing of the door on Christianity itself. From different quarters — Christian and pessimistic, secular and triumphalist, now pagan and anti-Christian — there is an account of modern history that conflates the crackup of Christendom with the decline of Christianity. It assumes that modernity as a whole has to be either a totally wrong turn (the Christian pessimist’s perspective) or a wrong turning that Christianity is responsible for and can’t save us from (the right-wing pagan brief) or else a glorious path toward enlightenment that renders traditional Christianity irrelevant (the secular optimist).

Yet for Christianity, the modern era is actually two stories intertwined: a story of conflict and failure and disappointment for many Christian institutions, their division and their weakness in the face of other powers, woven together with the story of the Christian religion’s resilience and global spread. Whether or not liberal modernity represents a “metaphysical catastrophe” (to pluck a phrase from one of its eloquent religious critics), it has created a world civilization in which the Gospel has been preached in the far corners of the planet; in which there are today, according to one study, 2.6 billion Christians; in which, amid a long-running crisis for Western Catholicism, more young Catholics attended the just-completed World Youth Day in Portugal than inhabited all of medieval Rome and Paris and London put together.

The extraordinary reach of global Christianity is part of what makes me skeptical of full declinist narratives from my fellow believers and more inclined even toward certain kinds of techno-futurism, against interpretations of the late modern world as an engine of disenchantment or a soul-devouring machine.

At the very least, insofar as the core commandment of the risen Jesus — go and make disciples of all nations — has been fulfilled by and through our high-tech and pluralist modernity, any providentialist reading of that history cannot be simply negative. And the fact that so much that’s negative has also befallen the Christian churches in that time suggests the nuanced Christian response to Bronze Age Pervert’s challenge: Christianity’s claim to enjoy more divine favor than 20th-century fascism rests not on the absence of justified chastisements or purifying defeats, but on the faith’s spread both in spite of and through these experiences, its resilience in spite of what its leaders often seem to deserve.

But give Bronze Age Pervert this much: Our era is clearly allowing unexpected space to old alternatives to Christianity, of which his vitalism may be the most illiberal but definitely is not the strangest. What does providence have in mind with these developments? Ask me again in a hundred years.

13 Common Custom Home Design Styles

Choosing to build a custom home allows homeowners and designers to break away from the constraints of cookie-cutter designs and embrace a dwelling that reflects their taste, needs, and aspirations.

Builder Custom Homes offers a spectrum of possibilities for homeowners seeking a personalized and unique living space that aligns perfectly with their lifestyle, preferences, and functional needs. These bespoke designs depart from the cookie-cutter approach of mass-produced homes, allowing for a tailored and distinctive expression of individuality.

Designing Your Dream Home

The sky’s the limit when it comes to designing your dream home. Custom home designs span a wide range of architectural styled, from the timeless and classic to the avant-garde and contemporary.

For example, you might opt for a traditional home design with pitched roofs, gabled windows, and intricate detailing—evoking a sense of nostalgia and charm. Or, if you prefer, clean lines, open spaces, and large windows that seamlessly merge the interior with the exterior, emphasizing a connection to nature, a modern custom home might be for you.

Floor plans cater to specific needs, whether an expansive open layout for communal living, a series of private spaces for retreat, or a combination that strikes the perfect balance. Sustainable and energy-efficient design principles are increasingly integrated into custom home projects, incorporating features such as solar panels, green roofs, and efficient insulation to reduce the environmental impact and long-term operating costs.

Custom home designs are not only about the physical structure but also encompass interior details, such as custom cabinetry, unique lighting fixtures, and tailored finishes that reflect the homeowner's taste and personality.

In essence, the allure of custom home designs lies in their freedom to turn dreams into reality, creating a functional living space and a true reflection of the homeowner's personality and aspirations.

Forex - The Greatest Opportunity

"The greatest opportunities in Forex come at the times when the market is most active." - George Soros

The foreign exchange market, or Forex, is the largest and most liquid financial market in the world. It operates 24 hours a day, five days a week, making it one of the most accessible and convenient markets for investors to take advantage of.

However, with this 24-hour access comes a certain level of complexity when it comes to knowing when the Forex market is open. So when does the Forex market open? The answer is that the Forex market is open 24 hours a day, five days a week.

However, not all trading sessions are created equal. Depending on when you decide to trade, you may find different levels of liquidity, trading opportunities, and volatility.

For example, the London session tends to be the most active, while the Asian session is generally quieter. In order to better understand when the Forex market is open, it is important to understand the different trading sessions.

The forex market has four major trading sessions: the Sydney session, the Tokyo session, the London session, and the New York session. The Sydney session is the first session to open, at 1:00 AM in Sydney, Australia.

This session is generally considered to be the quietest, as trading activity is usually light. The Tokyo session follows, beginning at 2:00 AM in Tokyo, Japan. This is also a fairly quiet session, with the Japanese Yen (JPY) being the most actively traded currency during this time.

The London session then opens at 3:00 AM in London, England. This session is considered the most active and volatile, as the majority of the world’s currency trades take place during this time. The final session is the New York session, which begins at 8:00 AM in New York, USA.

This is the second most active session, with the US Dollar (USD) being the most actively traded currency. In addition to these major sessions, there are also several minor trading sessions. These minor sessions include the Frankfurt session, the Hong Kong session, and the Singapore session. It is important to note that these trading sessions are based on local time.

For example, the London session opens at 3:00 AM in London, which is 10:00 PM Eastern Time in the US. Now that we have a better understanding of when the Forex market is open, it is important to note that not all currencies are traded during all sessions.

For example, the US Dollar (USD) is only actively traded during the New York session, while the Japanese Yen (JPY) is only actively traded during the Tokyo session.

It is important to be aware of these differences in order to maximize your trading opportunities. In conclusion, the Forex market is open 24 hours a day, five days a week, and each session has its own unique characteristics.

By understanding the different trading sessions and the currencies that are actively traded during each session, investors can better time their trades and take advantage of the most profitable opportunities.

"The key to success in trading is to focus on risk management and not on being right." - Paul Tudor Jones
