Watchers

So, I log into dA, and have one thousand and something messages... 130 and something are Snow-Spider favourites. I did Snow-Spider when I was 23, and I can't help but be a bit irritated at how I've yet to all-round beat it with something that has more depth. But here's the thing, sometimes the simplest things are the best, and artists get too hung up in sophistication. I've found that as a get older, I like songs more than bands. Just, you know, good songs. Not because they symbolise they break out of moulds, or signal a new wave of something, or are of a a particular worth sub-genre or whatever, but just because they are good.

Maybe Snow-Spider is just good. Maybe in a sappy, silly sort of way, but still, good. Okay, self obsessed rambling over:

I have more Felt Mountain stuff on the way. Coming up to Utopia, which I hope to make very good indeed.

Geez, I've been watching your palaeontographical account for some half year or so and somehow managed to avoid this one. Silly me. Everything here is just... brilliance.

I know this is probably very very random, but I saw your comments here- [link]
And your arguement with ~bountyhunterdepp and I was just going to say that I agree with you on the Jewish thing. But that, back then, it didn't matter if you didn't identify yourself as a Jew- even though you had one Jewish relative, you were still going to a camp basically even if you did have just one Jewish relative, even if you didn't identify as one.
But I'm sure you already knew that.
Again, just saying that I agree with you. Sorry for wasting your time ^^;

Well, the situation was more complicated than that, of course. The Nazis were inconsistent in the way they applied their rules, for example, Erhard Milch. Of course, nearly everyone (probably literally everyone with European decent) will have a Jewish relative. Claiming that any Jewish blood makes you Jewish ends up making everyone Jewish--that's just how populations work.

Of course, the whole thing was colossally stupid in any case. Nazi genetic science was only slightly better than their morals.
