He only died because everyone got super pissed at him when he was India. Had he taken Babylon and let Darius flee and let that be the end of it, the entire history of the world would be much different. For better or worse, idk.
Yep. It was his war in India that caused him to lose his immortality; if he had been content with staying in Babylon, he would still be alive today, and his empire would thus have never broken up, eventually swallowing the rest of the world.
I never said any of that. Of course he'd still die, his empire still collapse, but had they continued the world would be different. All I'm saying is that there would be difference through a sheer butterfly effect. You also have to remember what happened right after his death, his empire was split up, and trade routes were fought over. What if he lived 30 years longer and trade flourished and more knowledge was exchanged along the way? We'll never know. Thanks though, though next time, I'd rather the words you put in my mouth not be so chewy.
It's no worries. I was ranting 2 days ago a lot, so I can see why you'da done it. Don't sweat it. I hurt my back and the pain had me a bit enraged, The cool thing is, I've had the same injury before, but this time, my idea to how to fix myself up much faster is working. I'm at about 70% now after 3 days, which took me 2 weeks last time. I ate a lot of food, mostly fruits and herbs.. with a few veggies, used juices instead of soda as a mixer with my booze to dull the pain (not get blackout drunk, only enough to dull it enough I could move), tried to keep movement up instead of sitting in a chair, changed my sleeping position, and wrapped both my knees so I could use them easier as leverage while moving around and messing with my blood flow. Oh, and bong rips instead of my pipe so I'm not coughing and tightening my back up while I cough as much; and the bud themselves, right now, are favoring CBD over THC, the hairs are only beginning to turn to an amber coloring and the ones I clipped
were tiny ones at the bottom, so those still had white hairs, where the THC production is least... further amplifying the ratio.
Edit: it almost was unreal though, about 5 nanoseconds before it happened I felt the tear in my back and I heard *pop*, and my body just dropped... damn near fell into my pool. I was moving a flowerpot I could fit in filled with rocks, sand, and still unthawed H2O up a few stairs and instead of pushing it up, I thought pulling it up was a great idea.
edit 2: I also had to eat beans though. I hate beans.
