Salve, my name is Meximedius.

I’m a 21 year old Ottoman Romanophile (Roman fan for you barbarians). I assemble mosaics and write poetry, and spend my days perfecting my art and reading superior Greco-Latin literature. (Julius Caesar, Cicero, Homer)

I train with my Paramerion every day, this superior weapon can cut clean through steel because it is folded over a thousand times, and is vastly superior to any other weapon on earth. I started getting tutored in the art of the sword 8 years ago, and I have been getting better every day.

I speak the languages of the Roman Empire fluently, both Latin and Greek, and I write fluently as well. I know everything about Roman history and their Corpus Juris Civilis, which I follow 100%

When Orban is done building my cannons, I am invading Konstantiniyye to crown myself the Casear to learn more about their magnificent culture. I hope I can become an architect for Hagia Sophia or a mosaic designer!

I own several laurels, which I wear around town. I want to get used to wearing them before I move to Rome, so I can fit in easier. I salute my elders and seniors and speak Greek as often as I can, but rarely does anyone manage to respond.

Wish me luck in Rome!

It would have worked if turks converted to Orthodox Christianity. Then you'd have an Ottoman-led Roman Empire, which would have been the coolest thing ever, maybe able to land in Italy due to increased stability brought by having a population of the same religion.

TL;DR: Islam is cancer

What would have happened if he didn't die?

No fights over who would lead the Crusade. Barbarossa was older, more powerful and outranked the two Kings.
German contingent reaches Jerusalem = stronger Crusader states

The interesting thing would be if he found out the Byzantines were helping the Muslims.

If I fear death, should I also fear sleep?

How does one live with the idea that continuity of consciousness is what matters?

>If I fear death, should I also fear sleep?

Yes. How do you know the "you" who went to sleep is the same as the "you" who woke up?
>>
>>1277989
Why would that be a worry if it's a continuous experience anyway?
>>
>How does one live with the idea that continuity of consciousness is what matters?
They live ignorantly, which is fine. Everyone does in one area or a lot of them.

The "self" is an abstract object. There isn't anything that actually separates you from the rest of reality. You're made of the same shit and are constantly exchanging materials with other stuff around you, it's all one big soup. You were simply taught by society that you exist, and this is how society and linguistics function globally at the moment, and you're not really going to be capable of thinking any other way without spending a lot of time alone up in a cave in tibet or something, and even then it's not like those guys are doing anything superior to having an ego. They're just dissolving theirs because it feels good.

Phenomenologically, the illusion of "self" and free will are strong enough to simply accept that they exist solely in your first-person perspective of reality, which is all that really should matter to you.

Do nonhuman animals have autonomy that needs to be respected?

Is autonomy something that needs to be respected?
>>
>>1277860
If you're empathetic to autonomy and life, then yes.
If you're autistic or sociopathic, then no.

It also depends on how firm the animals consciousness is. Dogs, cats, pigs, birds, cows, monkeys et cetera have relatively high levels of consciousness and don't like being hurt. However, oysters and jellyfish don't feel the same distress and don't feel pain, so if you accidentally kill one, don't feel bad (anthropomorphism takes care of this one too, since both look like alien cumshots)

Another god.

They're not omnipotent either.

Also the same situation for that god's god's gods' god etc.

But with enough god, all the responsibilities gets covered. So hinduism wins.

Something chinashills edited out of the summary.

Also there is almost zero chance that three IJA divisions had 600 artillery pieces. Chink revisionism at work.
