Franz von Bayern, commonly known as the Duke of Bavaria, is the current head of the House of Wittelsbach. His family ruled Bavaria until the German Revolution of 1918. Were it not for the Act of Settlement 1701—which disqualified Catholics from inheriting the throne—Franz would be the rightful heir to the English crown, according to the Jacobite line of succession. He regards the matter as just a "charming historical curiosity."

The House of Wittelsbach opposed the Nazi regime in Germany. During the last years of World War II, Franz and his family were held captive as prisoners in concentration camps. About the experience, he stated: "We were prisoners, persecuted, but we were not victims of the Shoah. It wasn't up to us, who returned from exile to Bavaria and our old positions, to see ourselves as victims. But as contemporary witnesses dwindle, I realized it's important to talk about it." After the war, he studied business management at the University of Munich and became a passionate modern art collector.

Franz has been in a romantic relationship with Thomas Greinwald since 1980:

"We came from two different worlds, and the expectations placed on me meant that Thomas was often required to make sacrifices and allowances—much more so on his part than on mine. Especially in the earlier years, this often involved humiliation for him when he was not treated appropriately as my partner. Without his willingness to cope with this, my life and the fulfillment of my commitment would not have been possible."

The couple made their relationship public in 2023. Afterwards, Franz explained the move:

"Tolerance isn't enough. Without actually approving of it, one tolerates the way of life of others just because one is tolerant. That doesn't do justice to the situation; we want things to be a matter of course. Many people don't even dare to think about certain things because they're afraid of the consequences. If I had to define my life goal, it would be fearless thinking, essentially: freedom from fear."

“All right, so the vampire’s gravestone is–”

“Cenotaph.”

“What?”

“It’s only a gravestone if it marks the location of a body. A monument honouring someone whose body isn’t present is a cenotaph.”

“I’m… not sure that’s how it works if the body gets up and walks away on its own.“

“There’s precedent for gravestones being reclassified as cenotaphs if the body is later removed and reinterred elsewhere. There’s no rule that says the body itself can’t do the removing.“

“Okay, but the body very much is coming back. That’s kind of what we’re here to accomplish.”

“So it’s a temporary cenotaph.”

“And naturally our greatest concern here is avoiding semantic ambiguity.“

“Semantic ambiguity is how vampires get you.”

It's time to hollow out Laika, but first I'm adding stars using custom stamps by brother printed for me. She's getting closer to complete! I'm debating making her bronze like a statue or glazing her with stains in her coat colors.

“Nobody’s going to want to sit on high-speed rail for fifteen hours to get from New York City to LA.”

Me. I will sit on high-speed rail for fifteen hours. I’ll sit on it for days. I’ll write and read and nap and eat and then do it all over again. I’ll stare out the windows and see America from ground level and not have to drive. I’ll see the Rockies and the deserts and cornfields and the Mississippi River and your house and yours and yours too. I’ll make up stories in my head about the small towns I see as we go along. I’ll see the states I’ve yet to see because driving or flying there is a fucking slog and expensive to boot. I’ll enjoy the ride as much as the destination. And then I’ll do it all over again to come the fuck home.

john green didn’t “deserve” the way that early ‘10s tumblr treated him technically, but I feel like the discussion around whether he “deserved” it or not is completely missing the point. he was an adult in a space that was largely recreationally used by teenagers. why would he not get the substitute teacher treatment. what else did you think would occur here.
