I like "Captain Payne", yes.
I was trying to come up with a title that conveys status, but most such titles imply a position of authority, while Payne still just serves me.
Though I suppose "reporting directly to the head-of-state" is deserving of a pretty high rank, now that I think about it.

Also, when did Aldi start accepting credit cards?
I know up until recently they only accepted debit and EBT cards...

part of the joke here is that "marshal", which is the highest military rank*, originally meant "stable boy", because you're important if you serve the sovereign regardless of your actual job

Hahaha, awesome. That is very Centralian.
I think I'll save Marshal for Ralph and Carrie Payne, though. That way Lee still has to look up to his grandparents. :P

See now I'm thinking...where do royal guards even live? Do they have a barracks somewhere? How do they commute to the palace?

...I love that you got the next post there.
Because I was imagining myself giving away magical secrets, but it's totally in character for you to swoop down and grab the book before I can give important secrets to some rando.

This is a nice house and all, but the temperature fluctuations in my bedroom freakin' kill me.
In the summertime, I have to turn the A/C on and off frequently because it gets too hot with it off but gets too cool if I let it run, even at a low setting, for more than a couple hours at a time.
In the wintertime, I have to turn the space heater on and off frequently because it gets too cold with it off but gets too warm if I let it run, even at a low setting, for more than a couple hours at time.
Mr. Roosevelt is the most formidable disaster that has befallen the country since the Civil War -- but the vast mass of the nation loves him, is frantically fond of him, even idolizes him. This is the simple truth. It sounds like a libel upon the intelligence of the human race, but it isn't; there isn't anyway to libel the intelligence of the human race.
He was in a skirmish once at San Juan Hill, and he got so much moonshine glory out of it that he has never been able to stop talking about it since. I remember that at a small luncheon party of men at Brander Matthews's house, once, he dragged San Juan Hill in three or four times, in spite of all attempts of the judicious to abolish the subject and introduce an interesting one in its place. I think the President is clearly insane in several ways, and insanest upon war and its supreme glories. I think he longs for a big war wherein he can spectacularly perform as chief general and chief admiral, and go down to history as the only monarch of modern times that has served both offices at the same time.
Mr. Roosevelt is the Tom Sawyer of the political world of the twentieth century; always showing off; always hunting for a chance to show off; in his frenzied imagination the Great Republic is a vast Barnum circus with him for a clown and the whole world for audience; he would go to Halifax for half a chance to show off and he would go to hell for a whole one.
The contrast between President Cleveland and the present occupant of the White House is extraordinary; it is the contrast between an archangel and the Missing Link. Mr. Cleveland was all that a president ought to be; Mr. Roosevelt is all that a president ought not to be -- he covers the entire ground.
Our people have adored this showy charlatan as perhaps no impostor of his brood has been adored since the golden calf; so it is to be expected that the nation will want him back again after he is done hunting other wild animals heroically in Africa, with the safeguards and advertising equipment of a park of artillery and a brass band.
Mark Twain wasn't subtle about his opinion on Theodore Roosevelt, I see
Cleveland was the leader of the pro-business Bourbon Democrats who opposed high tariffs, Free Silver, inflation, imperialism, and subsidies to business, farmers, or veterans. His crusade for political reform and fiscal conservatism made him an icon for American conservatives of the era.[2] Cleveland won praise for his honesty, self-reliance, integrity, and commitment to the principles of classical liberalism.[3] He fought political corruption, patronage, and bossism. As a reformer Cleveland had such prestige that the like-minded wing of the Republican Party, called "Mugwumps", largely bolted the GOP presidential ticket and swung to his support in the 1884 election.[4]
I like how whenever people want to do some sweet dunks about how INSERT SOCIAL ILL HERE caused the fall of Rome, they always forget about the bit where the capital of the empire was moved from Rome to Milan, or the bit where there was a whole Eastern division of the empire that continued to exist for a thousand years after the Western half fell.

Are the runs after his worth reading too, or nah?
