From my history class's review sheet google doc
13. The English Civil War: will throw in an explanation later. for general idea search English Civil War on wikipedia and read historiography and explanations sections. It’s all about religious oppression, class war, all the same shit as everything else.

tonight I went to a birthday dinner for this girl and when I was leaving she said “I’m still going to find a mate for you.”

and then she said that this “mate” will be “someone who doesn’t like anything.”
omg she knows me so well...

thus-spoke-nietzsche:
The Absurd, also known as the doctrine of absurdism, is the philosophical stance depicted by Albert Camus in novels, and philosophical essays, authored throughout his lifetime, and has left a significant impact on existential philosophy ever since.
