Nixon with his Wagnerian/Shakespearian unbridled villainy is the closest any president has come to representing the spiritual truth of his office, and I still respect that.

As of 2008, Iran carries out more sex change operations than any other nation in the world except Thailand. The government provides up to half the cost for those needing financial assistance, and a sex change is recognized on the birth certificate.

"Womyn" was invented based on a false etymology, where the people who came up with it thought the original word really is just "man" with a "wo" prefix and didn't bother looking it up; "womxn" appears to have even less thought behind it

As a Latin nerd the word "herstory" infuriates me because did they really think a word as old as "history" is actually just a portmanteau of "his" and "story", that's just so dumb

I thought it did though, only "man" was originally a neuter term for humans in general, then you had "wifeman" as the origin of "woman", while the since lost male version was "wehrman" ("fighting human", same root as Wehrmacht), but that's all vague memories from years ago so could be wrong.

You're obviously right about history though. I guess lots of people were confused by the Michael Jackson album

Yeah in my post I meant "man" as in the English word "man," when obviously the real etymology is more complex

The Japanese writers of Dark Souls got it pretty correct with "Manus" as a primordial figure

well

that does actually just mean "hand"

Sure, but it's also very close to Mannus from Tacitus

Though at that point they actually just be MST3K fans

oh and also


Mannus, with 2 n's, is Latin for "pony"

there was a sword from Ogre Battle 64 (one of my favorite games as a kid) called the Sum Mannus, which means "I am a pony"

it was lightning element :shrug:

Well, for Tacitus see:
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mannus
Obviously we don't know how close he was to the actual German and we lack corroborating sources, but on an amateur level it sounds close to Mannaz, and specifically for a computer game made by Japanese europeaboo nerds it's not unlikely they would have heard of the name as used for a primordial first human.

Summanus was an obscure Roman god of thunder, because the Romans had temples for more gods than they could keep track of, just in case any of them proved the right one to pray to for the issue at hand :v:

lol yeah that makes more sense than the literal translation

Roman religion is really funny in how they would institute temples and rituals for almost every god they ever heard of, like some hosed up civic Pascal's wager, and then forget what the god was even supposed to do but still keep sacrificing out of cultural inertia. But the gods are obviously good, so they are probably working their hardest to help us somehow, right? Just keep quiet and keep donating.
