I wish I were a girl again, half-savage, and hardy, and free.

'The Subtle Knife' by Rovina Cai.

So excited for this game, and wanted to share my first thoughts.

Is the afterlife of the gods going to be something like the MCU's Void, a mix-match of gods from different pantheons each wanting territory?

The two antagonists we see are Begtse, the Mongolian god of war, and Sekhmet, the Egyptian goddess of war.

In Egyptian Mythology, Sekhmet was created to punish humans for no longer respecting him, but she went too far and nearly wiped them out.

In this universe, was she killed by Ra when he got a change of heart and she refused to stop and was sent here?

Are we going to see other slain gods from different mythologies?

Like Tiamat, Baldur, Izanami, etc?

We see two gods of war, and I can't help but wonder if we're going to see more of them, like they're the most aggressive of the bunch.

Which would lead Faye to see how much of an outlier Tyr was.

And ofc, are we going to see Athena in this, another war goddess and one of the biggest ghosts that haunt the narrative?

And if so, will this game not only be the focused on Laufey but opening up to the larger lore of the God of War universe?

This one hurt, her work had such a profound effect on my life, thoughts, and politics.

May her memory be a blessing

Restorers carefully separated the pages and her secrets were published in later editions with the permission of her father Otto Frank. She was young and didn't know what these feelings meant about her, she was a Jewish girl who was murdered so near the beginning of her life that she never had the opportunity or privilege to draw her own conclusions about herself.

however, other sections definitely did—and it’s most likely that otto frank, her father, omitted them in early published editions. anne frank herself was rewriting a new version of her diary for publication; when otto frank helped edit her diary, he included passages from both her own edited and unedited sections.

regardless of semantics here, the through line remains the same: anne frank herself did not ultimately choose which parts of herself to share with the world and which to keep private. otto frank did the best he could to both honor her memory & respect her privacy when omitting passages. (it’s also not hard to determine why either otto or anne might have omitted sections about her attraction to girls in their own respective edits).

furthermore, she did not get the chance to explore an lgbt identity because nazis murdered her for being jewish. that’s the point all comments above & in the tags reiterate and why we’re really tired of lgbt goyim focusing on these sections from her diary—anne frank may be a historical figure now, but she was once a regular young girl who died young because of antisemitism. the least you can do to honor her memory is refrain from speculating about an aspect of her identity she was prevented from exploring & claiming.

regarding the goyische appropriation of anne frank in general, i highly recommend all goyim (and jews) to read this article by dara horn:
