Being of “good German stock” has never meant being
waif-like. It doesn’t mean they’re fat, or pre-disposed
thereof, but having some German in one’s DNA is NOT
a bad thing. (Counts on fingers, couple of toes, um,
uh – yep, somewhere better than 1/16 German, at least
1/8 Irish, and, uh, 3/4 mutt.)

Captain Standish on the Mayflower,.

My G’dad was in the late 1910’s early 1920’s, barely
old enough to understand what was happening. My
g’ma was in her early teens when her family came
over in the late ’20s as part of a work force like the Irish.
My G’dad was a townie, but my G’ma was a farm girl,
Made for some interesting tales out of both. I’m a
Townie myself, only started the whole farmer thing
about 8 years ago out of boredom. But she did tell
me how to deal with a troublesome bull, a hard punch
to the nose is a funny thing to watch, just count
the sneezes! Heh!
Is “goat fucker” here just a generic insult,
or is there something specific meant with this?
(I suppose they don’t actually have a habit of fucking goats,
this surely goes against the Islam. Goats are more for eating.)

I’m thinking “goat fucker” is generic against
the hostile muzzies. If you’re not trying to bed
my daughter against her will, and not trying to
kill me as I protest, then there is little reason for
me to call you (generically) a “goat fucker”.
I’d agree, but they call anyone from that part of the world that,
Like how the bullies at school were doing to Christina before the fall. http://thegentlewolf.net/comic/tgw-027/ P8
Goats are a common stock animal in their area, we were raising
goats ourselves, they need little water and can pretty much eat
anything. As far as “goat fucking” goes, not likely, a female goat
is too small, and they drop pellets, so neither is a good option
for perverts LOL. A male goat’s “tool” is a foot long and smaller
than a pencil. yeah I know, but with 8 felmales and 1 buck, you
can’t help but see things. Plus when in rut, the males are worse
than dogs about peeing on EVERYTHING and everyone…
(Damn it “Tron”, these are new boots!) And you never let the
buck give you a “hug”, he’s not being friendly….
Which is why I said not likely, but there are people caught
doing that to chickens and that straight up kills them.
Sadly, there are a lot of sick people out there, mostly
because they aren’t liked by the ladies, so they get
desperate.
Get desperate? No. Choose to think they MUST copulate
with something? Yes. But it’s a choice. There are urges,
yes, but “My body made me do it” has never been a
legitimate reason. Men have been choosing to abstain
from sex for various reasons for millennia. Sometimes for
years at a time (remaining a virgin till marriage, remaining
faithful to a spouse who can no longer participate, etc).
True, there’s always been people that’d rather be on an
animal than with a human. Ra pe is ra pe, no matter
what the species is. Claiming “animal instinct” is no
excuse. Just ask one of the Catains.
This is clearly true, and of long standing.
Otherwise why would there be prohibitions
of such behavior very early in the Bible?
It’s the old rule-of-thumb, that every law
or regulations stems from somebody doing
something stupid.
Better the men who have horses do it to them.
The horses survive, although mentally scarred for life,
but the men often don’t. For a while, it was legal in Oregon,
I think, due to a loophole in the law.
specific, most middle east an north Africa,

so to get pleasure they fuck goats…
or so the joke goes
Ah good, not a real issue, but a good one! Plus, it saves
them from having to find good people to start a new
colony of good families in the area, it sounds like the
outcome of this ugly mess is the Empire will have more
friendlies or members in an area that was openly hostile
before! Well done PC!
Yes, they are. Although my fast computer helps.
The worst roadblock is often figuring out the dialogue,
trying to put into words exactly what I want to say.
Re-reading old pages, I can see where I was struggling
to write clearly.
The first 300 or so pages are the worst for self-cringe. https://thegentlewolf.net/comic/tgw-001/
panels 2-3 show the difference.
I bet, your system makes mine look slow. My 1080ti
helps, but rendering takes way too long, so I can guess
what you’re going through. Writing does suck, the
little I did was enough to teach me that. I’d start with
an outline and a script, then fit it together. only I would
come up with some paragraphs away from home, and
only to find out they didn’t fit anywhere in the story.
I first started 3D rendering with a 980ti on a 7600K…
I’ve had five now,
and I’m now on an 11700K with a 3090 card.
Renders eight times as fast as my 1080ti.
Funny thing is,
CPU and memory speed never made much difference.
It’s all in the GPU.
And the SSD, of course.
NVME drives are wonderful for loading times.
Never did anything with my old systems, either.
They’re still stacked in my closet.
I really should sell them.
I bet. I’ve only got a 8700k and the 1080,
as it is I’ve started to save back to buy
that Artic cooler with the duel fans. I
wish my 1080 was rigged for water cooling
I’m sure that’s some of the issues.
Be careful. The Arctic is the best AIO on the market,
just make sure it will fit.
The radiator is 38mm thick.
I have the Liquid Freezer II 280 on my main computer,
but had to buy a new case for it because the old one
wouldn’t fit it.
I also bought a used Corsair 240 AIO on ebay for
$30.00 that works fine.
Cougar Duoface Pro: https://cougargaming.com/us/products/cases/duoface-pro-rgb/
I modded it slightly to improve cooling, if you’re interested.
I don’t know why case manufacturers insist on jamming
motherboards up against the very top of the case,
it makes it hard to fit a radiator and fans.
And a 3060 will give you the best bang for your buck in
rendering speed, about twice as fast as your 1080ti.
They’re not too expensive, especially used on ebay.
But you’ need 32GB of RAM with either card.
(Roughly 3X the GPU ram).
Sometimes you could use my head as radiation shielding.
I want to confirm that the “problem” mentioned in
TGW-1322 P8 was the Germans that Terysa is speaking
with now. Is that right?
“We are Berliners”
As President JFK said at The Wall, “Ich bin ein Berliner.”
Or (as properly translated), “I am a jelly doughnut.”
I presume Herr Doktor is not calling himself and
his daughter (where is/what happened to his wife?)
jelly doughnuts.
They’re speaking German. I didn’t think readers would
appreciate it literally, though.
I believe the proper phrasing is “Ich bin Berliner”,
it’s the “ein” that makes it wrong.
Of course, I might have it wrong.. It’s been years.
I can believe Sybille killed that “goat fucker”,
she gives me the same vibe my G’ma did.
Even though my g’ma was only Terysa’s height,
she FELT like she was 6′ tall!
Sybille looks to be nearly 6 feet tall,
so no, I’m NOT going to argue with her!
“Berliner” one word, two meanings
1. people living in the City of Berlin
(also: Hamburger (Hamburg), Kölner (Cologne), …)
2. Yeast dough, baked in oil and filled with Jelly
So, reading this one:
“As President JFK said at The Wall, âIch bin ein Berliner.â
Or (as properly translated), âI am a jelly doughnut.â”
is one thing above all, namely wrong!
You know it, if you read the full part :
“All free men, wherever they may live, are citizens of Berlin,
and, therefore, as a free man, I take pride in the words
“Ich bin ein Berliner.””
“She’s no fragile flower”
I presume you’re referring to the daughter.
If so, it looks like she could not only guide
the plow, but pull it through the field by herself.
She also looks like she does not suffer fools gladly.
(I wonder how well she cooks?)
Pity you can’t meet my grand mother, she’d stand toe-to-toe
with any Russian woman. Even when she was old, she’d have
no trouble dealing with people. I’ve heard stories about her
knocked down a bull, or carrying 4 full milk cans to the truck.
German women are tough!
President Elect Toxic Deplorable Racist SAH Neanderthal B Woodman Domestic Violent Extremist SuperStraight
I wonder what your g’mother would think
of today’s German women considering the
state of the German state and the foreign
alien invasion?
I still say that there are many opportunities
for nighttime surreptitious activities to teach
the muzzies to be more respectful of their
host country and customs.
Unfortunately, no one seems to be taking
advantage of the nighttime.
Knowing her, she’d let out a loud “Ach!” and launch into
a long, German rant about worthless people etc…
My late g’uncle Otto was even worse, it was the reason
he immigrated to the USA in ’66. He said that Germany
was weak and no longer deserved HIS type of people…
I wish I was kidding.
I agree, might be fun to dress her as one to keep up the whole
biblical image that PC has been using on Islam in this story,
but that could be for a later plot-line.
Ancestry.com has had a recent update, and they are saying my
heritage is 26% “Germanic Europe,” specifically Switzerland.
That was entirely news to me, but I’m betting I got it from
both my parents. My great grandfather on my maternal side
was apparently a Huguenot and fled French persecution,
probably around the time of the Saint Bartholemew’s Day
Massacre, and resettled in Denmark.
I’ve thought about trying that, but my father has some
bad memories from when he was in school during WWII
and gets very defensive if asked if Otto or any of his
family were part of the Nazi party. I might look into it
when he passes.
She's no fragile flower.

Islam, however, is not a race.
You can be bigoted against Islamic people
