BISEXUALS GROW FROM THE GROUND

Among the unique features of Hungarian convents was their function as public institutions, the places of verification [1], which were empowered to verify and issue lawfully binding documents. The places of verification (loca credibilia) were unique Hungarian legal institutions which had no equivalent anywhere else. These were ecclesiastical institutions - chapterhouses and convents, as they had at their disposal educated and literate people. They created, on request from persons natural and juridical, by the order of the monarch or on the basis of a state decree, reliable documents, typically pertaining to property rights, and provided documentation of legal transactions.

Chapterhouses and monasteries, aside from fulfilling their basic tasks of the spiritual character, were the only cultural institutions to have any influence over the populace. At the same time, they functioned as educational institutions, where, among other things, the Roman law was taught. In this law, basic components of notary work (ars notarialis) were already included. However, in the monasteries and chapterhouses, law was not only taught, but also put into practice, which destined the aforementioned ecclesiastical institutions for enacting civil law. The trustworthyness of clergymen also played an important role here. Monks and canons participated on buying and selling, donations or writing down testaments as witnesses, whose sealed written testimonies gained not only legal power, but also eternal sanctity. Hungarian landowners, who were often away on military ventures, surrendered valuable documents as their most prized possessions to the hands of the churches. Here, verified and sealed transcriptions of documents were made at a request of the parties, such as for the needs of the courts. The documents issued by ecclesiastical entities obtained their trustworthyness not on the basis of laws or decrees, but in accordance with the customary law.

Initially, only chapterhouses played the role of the places of verification, but the rising societal demand for the issuing of documents raised the need for the placement of monasteries into this role. These were Benedictine, Premonstratensian and crusader convents. Cistercians also played this role for a time. It's also the Benedictines, Premonstratensians and Cistercians who are considered to have been the three most successful orders in medieval Europe. The authentic seals were the signifiers of a place of verification in the Middle Ages, and in the Modern Era, they were joined by the protocols. However, cases of abuse of this power did occur, as the practice of this service brought significant revenue. For this reason, in 1353, a revision of the seals of convents and chapterhouses was ordered, following which the number of places of verification stabilized.

In Hungary, the role of the place of verification was played by 16 cathedral and 10 collegiate chapters, 18 Benedictine (after 1353 only 10), nine Premonstratensian (after 1353 only six), eight crusader (after 1353 only three) convents and smaller convents, such as Cistercian ones. In Slovakia, these were the convents and chapterhouses that served as notariates: the cathedral chapterhouse of Saint Emmeram in Nitra, the collegiate chapterhouses of Saint Martin in Bratislava and Spišská Kapitula [2], the Benedictine convent of Saint Hippolytus of Rome on the Zobor and of Saint Benedict in Hronský Beňadik, the Premonstratensian provostships of the Blessed Virgin Mary in Šahy and Kláštor pod Znievom, in eastern Slovakia the Premonstratensian convent of Saint John the Baptist in Jasov and of the Holy Cross in Leles. Before the revision, legal transactions were also enacted by the Cistercians in Spišský Štiavnik and the members of the provostship in Nižná Myšľa.

éowyn pretended to be dernhelm, a man. to fit in, she must have worn men’s armor. so the armor in the illustrations is normal for rohirrim.

therefore, all the rohirrim rode to war just like that:

male or female

hero or villain

sea or land

even in the snow

“I am definitely an ass man. It blows my mind. Talk about simple shapes. Two very simplistic curves. It’s so dumb, but they are fascinating as hell. It’s more than that. It’s the way the rest of the anatomy ties into that area — incredible beauty”

what does this have to do with boiling your surgical tools? well look, the boiling water releases bubbles of steam which carries the malign influences up to heaven. you boil a knife, you send all the miasmic particles off with the steam to heaven. if you rinse the knife off in a bucket the water isn't hot enough, the particles go into the water and then right back on to the knife. you gotta boil it to get the particles all the way away. how can a tool or rag or a bed have miasmic particles on it when you can't smell them? humans have a lousy sense of smell. look at your dog on the hunt. are there no rabbits in the woods just because you can't smell them? we know that miasma is carried on the air, and is what makes stench so dangerous, and we know that humans can't smell worth a damn compared to dogs cats horses etc. a dog can smell if a rat died in a corner of the room last week. you can't. do you think licking the spot where the rat died is going to go well for you? luckily, what humans lack in snout we make up for in brains. we have extra brains where our sniffers should have been. God set that up for a reason.

and why does a rinse with wine spirits work? man, look how fast alcohol evaporates. my guess is that because wine contains a lot more vice than water, it evaporates a whole lot faster, in sort of an equal and opposite way that a rock falls faster than a feather. if you want the miasmic particles to get off there FAST, you dunk it in something that's going back to heaven at a gallop.
