today i visited the castle walt disney based the Famous Disney Castle on, Neuschwanstein, and learned that the king who made it, lugwig II was a gigantic fucking fanboy that built a fairytale castle bc he was obsessed with this swan knight legend, so he made this useless weird castle to sit in the mountains and look pretty and have all his favorite characters on the walls. this motherfucker built a fake grotto next to his bedroom cuz he saw it once in an opera and thought it was cool. this is like if obama really liked star wars and just built a millennium falcon he could live in. also he loved supporting artists and hired actors to go with him into the countryside and act out legends this MOTHERFUCKER WAS LARPING IN THE 1800s you nERDY fUCK. also ludwig only went out at night cuz his life was so scandalous people talked about him, so he had a carriage/sleigh combo with a battery powered light on it and rode around the bavarian countryside like the useless emo batman fuck that he was. did i mention he was bisexual and retreated into the LARGER GROTTO HE BUILT IN ANOTHER PALACE for years bc honestly what’s more relatable than building yourself an artificial grotto below a palace to be a gay recluse like the goddamn phantom of the opera? this fucking icon now has secret societies and conspiracy theories about his mystery death because only true icons create drama from the fuCKING afterlife. anyway i’ve now found my bisexual depressed fanboy bitch role model
