Mardoniush [she/her]

Or (And I’m sorry for taking the Copypasta seriously) the whole thing is a metaphor on Agriculture vs Pastoralism and God’s favouring the Pastorialists. Of course the story is from the Jahwist source and the original Jahwist groups that came into contact with the Elohists to become Proto-Yahwism were hardcore pastoralists from south-east of the Canaanite heartlands, so the whole thing is basically a “I have portrayed you as the soy virgin” scene.

Ah, yes. I see that you know your judo well. Good one.

Regrettably we will need to take the advice of the French on the correct way to deal with Baronesses.

Nah, the Fash can’t help betraying their own and that will cause a crisis that the fash can’t solve. Most people are opportunists and narrativists, when the fash cut down the narrative they’ll back us. Some because we offer a story, others out of fear. We just need to look like an option.

I’m entirely economically viable, it’s just the jobs they’ll pay me to do are actively harmful, and the things I do that benefit society and actually produce things don’t pay/are flooded fields/would require years of leeching off my partner while I get settled. So here I am, pouring sand into the gears, which somehow still makes me above average in productivity because employers really, really like hackable KPIs.

Yeah, not actually a rule, just discouraged and not practical for most. I imagine some non-militants like Dialogous that get out more with the Inquisition and Rogue Traders absolutely have relationships. In fact I’d say outside of a Rogue trader a Dalogous is probably the single highest probability for a Human Eldar relationship.

Sister Julien is canonically having a relationship with the Bursar (and possibly Ciaphas) in the Cain novels so celibacy is clearly not as enforced as it could be. Amberly mentions it’s not actually forbidden, it’s just the average SoB can’t find the time given the strictures of most orders’ cloistered life. If we imagine most of them to be like the stricter Catholic orders like the Poor Claires and Trappists that’s unsurprising. I’ve not read the Heresy novels but how do the SoB have characters when they’re not founded until the AoA? EDIT: I lack reading comprehension.

Amazing that he could do this while also pushing the one train.

I predict “assembly” will amount to bolting the case on.
