*Don Cossack pride surging*

Yes he rebelled against Peter the Great

He does have his reasons

Okay I will stop here my autism is spreading quickly

Who's that

Saint Patricks day, now a festival of gluttony

Fasnacht, now a festival of greed

All hallows eve, now a day of gluttony and paganism

Pretty sure there's something demonic in the way Hallow's eve is celebrated by modernity

and Christmas, now a day of materialism

@MawLr all of these holidays have been destroyed

They attacked our traditions and replaced them with modernity

Everything else was merely a byproduct

yea..

sad

I really dislike when they paint the foreheads like that

Yeah the face looks masculine. For a child

Well that usually happens because they draw the face just like the adults

Though here I would say it is mainly becaus eof the hair

Still, the forehead looks grotesque

the classic balding baby

If I'm right in my thinking, it was associated with wisdom.

yea

i just think it looks kinda funny

Costanza baby

@Based Chav You're right, though that was a child who was killed in a blood passover ritual

which doesn't make much sense in the sense of wisdom

iirc Paul and Chrysostom are regularly painted like that
