Us realizing every single one of us is from a source where we feel like how much love we get is contingent on how useful we are, which is exactly like the Boss's real life trauma:
La mente di Dio, riflessione sulle origini dell'universo
La mente di Dio, riflessione sulle origini dell’universo
“La Mente di Dio” è il nuovo libro scritto da Igor Bogdanov Grishka che continua l’esplorazione dell’universo e della ricerca del senso della vita. Ancora una volta, attraverso questo libro, tenta di rispondere alla domanda su cui si interrogano da tempo immemorabile gli scienziati: come è nato l’universo? Di seguito pubblichiamo alcuni estratti del libro.
“La Mente di Dio”, alcuni…
"As the attack on Rasputin intensified, the Moscow newspaper Golos Moskvy denounced "that cunning conspirator against our Holy Church, that fornicator of human souls and bodies—Gregory Rasputin" as well as "the unheard-of tolerance exhibited toward the said Gregory Rasputin by the highest dignitaries of the Church." Nicholas issued an order banning any mention of Rasputin in the press on pain of fine. But Rasputin made much too good copy for editors to worry about fines; they published and cheerfully paid. The unprintable stories, passed from mouth to mouth, were infinitely worse. The Empress and Anna Vyrubova, it was said, shared the peasant's bed. He ordered the Tsar to pull off his boots and wash his feet and then pushed Nicholas out of the room while he lay with Alexandra. He had raped all the young Grand Duchesses and turned the nurseries into a harem, where the girls, mad with love, fought for his attentions. "Grishka", the diminutive of Gregory, appeared in obscene drawings chalked on walls and buildings; he was the subject of a hundred smutty rhymes. Nicholas was bitterly offended at the dragging of his wife's name and honor through the mud. "I am simply stifling in this atmosphere of gossip and malice," he told Kokovtsov. "This disgusting affair must be ended." Neither Nicholas nor Alexandra understood the meaning of freedom of the press; they did not understand why the ministers could not prevent the appearance in print of what they both knew was inaccurate and libelous. On the other hand, for the ministers, the Duma and even the Dowager Empress, the solution lay not in repressing the newspapers, but in ridding the throne of Rasputin. Once again, Marie invited Kokovtsov to call on her, and for an hour and a half they discussed Rasputin. "She wept bitterly and promised to speak to the Tsar," Kokovtsov wrote. "But she had little hope of success." "My poor daughter-in-law does not perceive that she is ruining both the dynasty and herself," said Marie. "She sincerely believes in the holiness of an adventurer and we are powerless to ward off the misfortune which is sure to come." Inevitably, the demand rose for an open debate in the Duma on the role of Rasputin. The Duma President, Michael Rodzianko, a massive figure weighing 280 pounds, was a former cavalry officer of aristocratic family whose political views were not much different from those of a Tory country squire in England. To him, the idea of a public debate in the Duma on Rasputin's relations with the Imperial family seemed highly offensive. Seeking advice, he too visited Empress Marie and heard the same depressing views that Marie had addressed to Kokovtsov. "The Emperor … is so pure of heart," she concluded, "that he does not believe in evil.""
My name’s Grishka, welcome to my little corner of the internet!
This is my post where you can find all my information for my blog such as my AO3, what I write for, my masterlist …etc. Pls use this as a navigation through my blog, its always pinned for convenience.
note: What I write for depends on my current hyperfixations. This is always evolving, so if I don’t write certain things for a bit I may be fixated on something else at the moment.
It’s Griswalda and Elliot’s future mixed baby, Grishka! She is known as the “feral child“.
Grishka
She's a Tundra Grimm and Diving Beetle hybrid. She's Griswalda and Elliot's youngest daughter. She's also Gridley, Grier, Grimmshaw, and Snowflake's younger sister.
She's 3 years old and a girl.
She's feisty, hyperactive, protective, noisy, and quite aggressive. Many would describe her as feral.
Griswalda had her by accident, but she and Elliot love Grishka nonetheless.
She was very aggressive towards non-grimms as a baby. It was so bad, Griswalda had to use a spell to mellow her out.
They trained her to not attack others when she was 3 and it worked for the most part. If she feels wronged though, she will attack.
The reason why she's aggro is because NKG put a bit of her great, great grandma's DNA in her. That ancestor was especially aggressive due to dealing with hunters and mortal bugs alike. This, of course, isn't particularly useful since the hunter threat is non-existent, so they use this aggressiveness in hunting instead.
In teaching her hunting, this also resulted in Grishka going out by herself to hunt nearby fauna. It stresses her parents out but also mellows her out a bit so it's a double edged sword.
Despite her feral nature, she loves her family a lot and is very upset when Gridley and Grier go off to college.
She's closest to Snowflake, their adopted vessel and often translates for them.
I just thought that I’d throw together a list of some recent local metal releases for Bandcamp Friday (or whenever you’re reading this).

It’s hard to believe that it has been 5 years since DC’s best stoner metal band has released a full length but Pound of Flesh is finally here!
So Be It – Let The End Begin

For some good news, we've got a baby budgie. My son named him (presumably) Grishka. He is now getting used to us and the new home. Right now I am delighted at everything he does - eats, drink, hangs from the cage's ceiling, makes chirps...
