I dunno, there are a lot of people on Tumblr who are phenomenally popular who are vicious liars and bullshit artists. Anita, though, is terrible at bullshitting. Everything about her is transparent. She's just... dumb, and terrible at dealing with people. I don't think she has the native shrewdness necessary to con a large number of people at once.
Men can definitely notice the beauty of other men, and I've seen a lot of people say they appreciate the beauty of youth more as they get older, but the way in which Azriel is talking, um.
would ancient Babylonian Jews have had those concepts in the exact same ways we do?
No. Complaining about terrible merchants and kids these days, yes. Some things are universal. But the exact same concepts of "devils" and "angels", absolutely not. Those are actually post-Christian. I don't know if Judaism had the concept of an afterlife by the time of Babylon, and it's still very ambiguous about it.
Anne Rice's "historical research" is done by reading stuff like books by ancient aliens weirdos who think Atlantis was real.
