That’s the post that made you follow me? (Incredibly judgemental of both the person, and me)

The chronicle of the monk Herbert of Reichenau for the year 1021 ends “My brother Werner was born on November 1.“
1021 was not an uneventful year. The emperor began a campaign into Italy. Illustrious abbots died. There was an earthquake. But Herbert took the time to note, at the end of the year, that his brother was born.
Of such acts of tenderness is history made.
how am i supposed to go to work when im literally thinking about The Character
“i. when my blood spilled down the temple steps, were you glad? when my wedding robes dripped scarlet, did you regret it, or did you smile, as the beat of my heart soared and sputtered and then stopped? as i bled out on your altar stone? was it worth it? ii. when your poets told my mother i died willingly, did you force yourself into believing it? old man, when they said a deer was sent to take my place, did you remember the way i bled out in front of you, or did you imagine a doe’s eyes and hooves made for running? did you imagine anything at all? iii. when you won your war, did you think of me then? when the streets filled with crimson, heavy as monsoon rain, did you think of my sacrifice, my life, laid down at your feet? did your men hold a vigil? do you even remember? iv. father, i do. father, i remember everything. father, i remember the way my eyes felt heavier with each wine-red drop. i remember the way your armies cheered as i lay dying, as the wind lifted the sails of your ships, and i was forgotten. father, i did not die willingly. father, the dead do not forget. father, i am waiting.”

So I just saw a post by a random personal blog that said “don’t follow me if we never even had a conversation before” and?????? Not to be rude but literally what the fuck??????????
I’ve had people (non-pornbots) try to strike conversation out of nowhere in my DMs recently, and now I’m wondering if they were doing that because they wanted to follow me and thought they needed to interact first. I feel compelled to say, just in case, that it’s totally okay to follow this blog (or my side blog, for that matter) even if we’ve never talked before.
Also, I’m legit confused. Is this how follow culture works right now? It was worded like it’s common sense but is that really a thing?
In 1970, my mother's family adopted an intellectually disabled man named Horace. Horace was 56, and had been in an institution since 1921.
My uncle, who was 19, was working as an orderly at the institution where Horace lived. He only stayed a few months as the abuse he witnessed was too much for him. He had become friends with Horace and told him "I'll come back for you."
Horace replied "They all say that."
By that Christmas, Horace lived with my uncle and his family. My grandparents did the official adoption. Horace had never seen a Christmas tree, and that was his first real Christmas.
Horace died in 2010, at the age of 96. He laid down for a nap and just slipped away.
At least two generations of children grew up with him. He felt immortal to us. He loved Hot Wheels, pizza, cartoons and to talk to the portrait of my grandparents as he sat in his rocking chair.
He knew everyone's birthday. He loved unconditionally.
He had scars on his back from the institutions. If you asked him about that place, his face would screw up and he'd say "oh, it was a bad place. Bad place."
And for 40 years, he was safe, loved, and happy. He loved us in return.
No point to sharing this. But I still miss his laugh as he held a conversation with a portrait, whispering about his day to the people who had helped rescue him.
So about Fyodor's ability we've only ever seen him use it on people and the only info we have on it is that it can like blow their brains up (since that's all we've seen it do iirc) and that it's named Crime and Punshiment.
As we all know Fyodor has a weird type of a god complex i guess you could say?? Basically he has decided he has the power to pick who should and shouldn't existed and picked ability users as the ones that shouldn't. Except himself. (from what i can understand)
He believes he has the right to pass judgment on such a thing as someone's very existence and punishes people based on whether he perceives them to have a committed a crime or not.
You getting what i mean??
From its name and what we've seen of it so far i think Fyodor's ability works in a way similar to court except he's judge, jury and executioner.
He is the judge of whether someone's life has been a sin or not, in this case ability users, and then executes them accordingly.
So in short how i perceive Fyodor's ability is that it only works on people Fyodor sees as criminals according to his own morals and ideals. Thus he can use it on any ability user and on only those non ability users who he sees as wrong and "evil" to put it in a very very very simplified way.
It's definitely more complicated than whether he sees the person as "evil" or not but yeah basically this is what I think it is.
Which also ties into my theory that Fyodor CAN'T use his ability to break out of the water tank area thing because the walls themselves are not something Fyodor does or CAN ever perceive as criminals and thus cannot blow them up. Even if he blames Dazai or hell even the guards for losing so easily he would only be able to attack them and not the gates.
Therefore, Fyodor is gonna die.
