Last day to grab out Pins from the spring cleaning sale! After that, they'll be gone until the holidays. crowdmade.com/OSP Also, witness my laptop repping some merch stickers, a casual Florence crest, a littel cleo paw, and the bold declaration that "I'm just a slut for the classics" -B
-
Oh damn, I knew Red was a great artist but the fact she went ahead and animated Blue and Luda is such a realistic style is absolutely amazing!
-
Wait he’s a real person and not a cartoon?! I feel so betrayed. Unsubscribed and flagged for Disturbing Content.

Blue: "YOU TOOK AN OATH!" Also Blue: "Of course I did, I Lied." Jesus Blue, what are you, Medieval-to-Victorian-eras Britain!?
-
Blue having a parasocial relationship with Machiavelli is next-level stuff.

44:04 "A wheel of cheese gets twelve, no, fourteen people killed in one saga" Nice to see Skyrim was drawing from history there. Typically my playthroughs involve killing people over cream treats personally but it's the same concept.

B: “Which is why I spend so much time looking at domes on the internet and talking about them” L: “Blue, blue, blue, blue, domes?” B: “Oh um” L: “You made a promise” B: “Of course I did, I lied.” L: “Oh… All right, well fair enough what can I do?”

History Historians Have a Hellish History Historian Experience.
-
"Got absolutely sucked into Rensaissance Architecture Brainrot and now I'm a degree holding classicist and a Youtube History Boy" That is one hell of a backstory description
-
No surprise they keep hurting themselves I just assumed anyone who got a degree in history was masochist
-
Historical accuracy is one of those things where if someone says "It can't be that hard," it shows how little they know.
-
I am having so much fun watching this. How are they so funny in front of so many people?
-
"Hamlet is a Norse Saga" is a revelation I did not expect to hear today
-
"That is a tooltip, into a tooltip, into a tooltip, into a tooltip" That's the ergonomic and modern version. In older EU IV versions you had a tooltip, then you had to check the other tooltip in another menu, that would talk about a thing that you can't actually verify in the game :D
-
Blue didn't lie. He wasn't talking about domes, he was talking about 'talking about domes'. Pledge fulfilled.
-
"you are suffering for my amusement right now!" Blue went full villain mode
-
“These are the historical good guys and these are the historical people who don’t look like us.”-Blue 2023
-
"The Machiavelli in history and my friend Machiavelli from Assassins creed did a little fusion-ha dance." - You've done it Red. He's not only conversant in Dragon Ball memes, but comfortable enough with them to use them semi-accidentally.
-
Honestly, even in an historical movie where the plot for whatever reason centered around a caliga, if the only problem of the shoe was that it had ten strips instead of eight, I think most historians would be pretty happy of the result XD
-
"Touch grass, it's great this time of year!" Counterpoint: allergies Books, on the other hand, are a great diversion from unfun games!
