People call AI (hate this buzzword) a "plagiarism machine" out of anxiety, but I just watched a video where HIMYM used classic scenes from Seinfield and Friends and repurposed them to a different narrative goal, and it was called a homage and a reference. Plenty of tropes in literature appear all the time across different works and worlds, become mainstays of the genre, but not plagiarisms of the original work.

Its funny seeing new people coming into Fateverse saying Rank EX is the strongest ranking.

EX is literally just immesurable, in a sense that it can't be calculate due to some weird shits. One thing could be EX because it is so overpowered. Another EX means that "it shouldn't work, but it did". Then there is the situational EX, it could be the best at one point and the worst at another.

My sis has turned into one of those crazy BTS fans that keep track of their idols agency, bday and all events and stuff. She once forgot my bday but somehow knew when her idol was sick to post a get well soon message for him.....

:meowsip: An error I noticed in many fictions with an European medieval setting, knights were first and foremost a social caste! Not a profession!

Actually, knighthood is a profession, a title, and a caste.

As a caste, knights ranked below barons in the social hierarchy. They rarely owned land and people to rule like the nobles above them.

As a title, knighthood was usually an honorary title for citizens who had rendered services to the kingdom, especially in war.

As a profession, nobles often served as knights. They would join war if the king called them. Even high-ranking nobles also participated in war as knights.

Thus, knighthood can be interpreted as a caste, a title, and a profession.

:blob_frown: This is an anachronistic interpretation. Too many errors to pick them apart individually. Anyway, by the high middle ages, the stratification was already well pronounced.

I'm so effing tired man. What did we do to deserve all these bs? Chemtrail? Epstein? Genocide?
I rate life 1 out of 100. 1 for hope.

Why can't I just yeet a toddler out of the window! I was on a hour long call with my friend and I saw a toddler peeping through the window! It scared me into an almost heart attack! Why can't people leash their toddlers!
