I suspect I might be the reincarnation of Red Skelton because I was behaving exactly like him and making his same types of jokes and mannerisms 2 decades before I even knew who he was, let alone saw one of his movies or routines. Incidentally he was my late grandpa's favorite comedian; self-deprecating, warm-hearted, and with a clownish sense of humor.

a bit of critique of that sculptor.
1st. Any historical persona might be shown at any age. Old age of Timur not better opinion.
2st. By skeleton impossible know form of eye, hairiness and form of eyebrow.
So that bust is pure fantasy.

1st. what if bypass the earnest and do the rest?
and the 2st. eye forms the area of region, not the eyebrow hair.

is not fantasy.

In case you not have a lot of pictures of natives onto an area in exact time of history, you can't know real popular eye form, and even if you know a popular eye form, into history questions about blood of kings very huge difficult.
Any face reconstruction from bones is fantasy fiction, because for example, trauma into childhood can did influence to form of nose and also look nearer to this >>612991 a sculptor did lips of negro, even picture of XV century look not same, so that sculptural reconstruction is fucking fiction, so the sculptor may suck a cock of the king and fuck off.
>>613300
>1st. what if bypass the earnest and do the rest?
Why people show George Washington at middle age, but show Timur as old man?
>2st. eye forms the area of region, not the eyebrow hair.
In some cultures, in case of mourning people cut off eyebrow hair and after that eyebrows hairs grow thick. So even eyebrows hairs reconstruction for sculpture is a difficult question.

>Aged 50, Dexter wrote a book about himself – A Pickle for the Knowing Ones or Plain Truth in a Homespun Dress – in which he also complained about politicians, the clergy and his wife. The book contained 8,847 words and 33,864 letters, but no punctuation and its capitalization seemed random. At first, he handed his book out for free, but it became popular and was reprinted for sale eight times.[2] In the second edition, Dexter added an extra page which consisted of 13 lines of punctuation marks with the instructions that readers could distribute them as they pleased.[7]
I was entirely convinced this guy was simply the luckiest moron, but now I suspect he was a master troll.

Speer was autism manifested in physical form.

He didn't even use the 'du' form with his wife. He also had an unpublished manuscript that went on for over 5,000 pages about windows.
