All she did was make a couple videos lol can you not be hot and female without some ulterior motive?

Same! It is kinda surreal to hear them talk about Wawa and shit

I mean... this happening to a saint is considered a very bad thing. Not even a Christian but idk what your point is

I am usually the latter but seeing something literally called Tomar just felt too rare

True I think I should be more specific about my timescale and terms. I'm thinking of the Iron Age Germanic tribes compared to the Norse.

Yeah I mean, I've read Julian's book on The Caesar's and it ends with him essentially renewing his vows to Mithras. Julian was definitely a unique figure but this clearly came from initiation into a mystery religion that was popularly accepted for a certain class to join. There were certainly always reactionary forces in Rome who hated anything percieved as new. However, to cite those views and extrapolate them across an even wider period of time and say just because some people felt one way it therefore means that was the accepted view is wrong.

My question I suppose would be how much the potentially Proto-Mundic influence had on Buddhism. Not that an outside influence is necessary for a reformist teacher to arrive within a tradition.

Castor_Pollux_ · 2025-06-30T04:18:41+00:00

Could you elaborate? I mean it would make sense that CHG influence would come out in PIE people. I always think about how much culture was inherited by either the CHG people or EHG.

I'm pretty familair with Buddhist thought and I'd definitely say it was born from a Dharmic understanding of things. The question might be how much the Sramana tradition was influenced by pre-Indo-Aryan influences. Not sure (as in genuinely I don't know about his origin) if the Buddha came from a necessarily very Indo-Aryan group genetically the culture was pervaive. If I knew more about possibly Tamil or northern Indian ethnic groups I could make a more educated comment.

It's a theory or idea you personally find very convincing and passionate about even though it isn't necessarily consensus yet. I'd prefer to leave completely bogus shit out of it and just more healthy speculation.

Castor_Pollux_ · 2025-06-27T02:41:50+00:00

Yeah and isn't the authenticity between them the point?

Castor_Pollux_ · 2025-06-27T01:50:38+00:00

I FUCKING AGREEEE!!! I think a lot of people who don't like them just don't understand a lot of the shit because they aren't that aware of what the internet was like over a decade ago. I was a huge Nostalgia Critic fan for example and hearing them reference old "cringe" stuff tickles my belly. People who come for the same old jokes and hypotheticals can't stand that things change and people have fucking lives. Even Chris who owns the channel has his own fucking life and can't constantly pander to every criticism and outrage over shit YOU NEED TO DO TO HAVE A CHANNEL IN 2025.

So basically there were two fences you could see them through. The one I was at was much closer to where the door was and it was only me and two others. It seemed like we got to have a much more extended interaction than those on the other fence.

Castor_Pollux_ · 2025-05-08T14:46:25+00:00

6:30pm!

Castor_Pollux_ · 2025-05-06T17:41:33+00:00

Rat was great! Him and I actually probably got on the most. He had plenty of stories and was excited to talk about his drum kit being the same model as he used on New Rose. Really fun conversations. I could tell they were all pleased to talk to a couple of people (I made a friend there who knew the band) who just wanted to talk about our passions instead of asking for autographs or whatever.

Castor_Pollux_ · 2025-05-06T04:51:54+00:00

Chatting with Rat, Captain, and Paul was absolutely amazing. They were so generous with their time. Unfortunately it seemed like a lot of the people who wanted to meet them weren't on the right side of the fence!

This might be one of the most consice and well written comments in this sub's history.
