patrickbaeddman asked:
please translate ‘patrick baeddman’ into oe for me. i imagine theres an equivalent of the name ‘patrick’ and then like, baeddel as it applies to a man, a baeddel man. please. i need this
baeddel:
someday ill start charging for these!
your name is more or less already in Old English. -man indicates an Anglo-Saxon name; man (mann was more common) just means ‘person’ and as a suffix it tended to indicate someone’s profession, eg. a līðmann was a sailor. a bædmann would be a professional badling, or a professional defiler. it would also be precisely the word 'badman’
there doesn’t seem to be an Old English equivalent of Patrick. the Secgan, an Old English list of resting places of Saints, uses Patrick’s indigenous name, Patricius. Patrick was a 5th century Briton who likely experienced Roman reign in England, and most Romano-Britons of note seem to have had Latinate names. Patrick wrote in Latin and his writing survives. when the Saxons invaded they slaughtered and enslaved the Britons; intermarriage between the Englisc and 'Welsh’ (as they called them) was forbidden. but the ruling class would soon convert to the Romano-Briton religion, the literati would learn their script, and so on, while for some centuries the common people remained pagan and spoke OE. in many respects the slaves had more in common with the aristocracy than they did churls. Englisc Christians venerated Briton saints and read their writing; Gildas was especially related. Balthild of Chelles, an Anglo-Saxon Christian sold into slavery in the 7th century who became a Merovingian Queen (and was not even the first Merovingian slave queen) made the enslavement of Christians unlawful, but it would continue in England until the Norman Conquest.
anyway, your Angelcynning name is Patricius Bædmann.
you may refer to me as patricius the badling, patricius the defiler
or just the defiler

Plebiscites are a fraud against democracy. Those who vote “yes”
or “no” do not, in fact, express their free will but, rather, are
silenced by the modern conception of democracy as they are
not allowed to say more than “yes” or “no”.

See, the second you call it ’(x)play’ and supply it cute, therapeutic, exploratory social-cultural-sexual parameters (the social the cultural and the sexual being parameters, and sequesterings, in themselves…), it is and is become entirely worthless. Enjoy your shift at the debauching-debauchery factory

“You ask whether societies of control or communication would give rise to forms of resistance capable of giving a new chance for a communism conceived as a ‘transverse organization of free individuals.’ I don’t know; perhaps. But this would be impossible if minorities got back hold of the megaphone. Maybe words, communication, are rotten. They’re entirely penetrated by money: not by accident, but by their nature. We have to detourn/misuse words. Creating has always been something different from communicating. The important thing is maybe to create vacuoles of non-communication, interrupters who escape control.”

It drives me insane how many people dont realise how often they break the law and that if the full force of it was ever applied life would basically be unliveable. Like between traffic violations, petty workplace theft, account sharing and piracy alongside how common it is to have been in posession of some illegal drug at some point in your life. People still manage to get away with thinking “criminals” are people who commit crimes not just populations that are surveilled enough to be routinely prosecuted

Despite moments of infatuation on both sides, these were not love relationships. The few hustlers excepted, they were not business relationships. They were encounters whose most important aspect was that mutual pleasure was exchanged—an aspect that, yes, colored all their other aspects, but that did not involve any sort of life commitment. Most were affable but brief because, beyond pleasure, these were people you had little in common with. Yet what greater field and force than pleasure can human beings share? More than half were single encounters. But some lasted over weeks; others for months; still others went on a couple of years. And enough endured a decade or more to give them their own flavor, form, and characteristic aspects. You learned something about these people (though not necessarily their name, or where they lived, or what their job or income was); and they learned something about you. The relationships were not (necessarily) consecutive. They braided. They interwove. They were simultaneous. These relationships did not annoy or in any way distress the man I was living with—because they had their limits. They were not the central relationships of my life. They made that central relationship richer, however, by relieving it of many anxieties.
