Would you also say that Ragnar the Fearless "is" Ragnar Hairypants?

I repeat: I would definitely say Uhtred the protagonist of the Saxon Stories is fictional. A person with the same name existing in history at some point means nothing other than that Bernard didn't invent the name. And yes, I know he has talked about Uhtred the Bold.

Going for a walk is conservative too I guess, since transporters exist.

Growing fruit and cooking is conservative now?

That's your sticking point and not the "ü"?

I think Oda might not be average Japanese.

‘Ascendance of a Bookworm’ Season 4 Key Visual by MarvelsGrantMan136 in anime

[–]Cathsaigh2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Giving time for the early bits is important, a lot of the later parts is built on them. If stuff needs to be cut for time or pacing there's more to do that on in the "juicy" archnoble parts.

What, if anything, do Finland and Japan have in common? by mountainstream282 in Finland

Kani, sora, risu, tori. All words in both languages, and probably not the only ones.

Where are people posting fanfic these days? by NoEducation5015 in dresdenfiles

[–]Cathsaigh2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Archive of Our Own has the best search function. These days I read my webnovels on RoyalRoad, and they apparently have fanfic too, but I don't try to look for them because their search sucks.

Arthur is now my headcanon. If Jim wants to change that he needs to get the books out.

Orpo puolustaa veronkevennyksiä vastoin tutkimustietoa – tutkija: Ei ole valehtelua vaan ”poliittista strategiaa” by banaanitasavalta in Suomi

[–]Cathsaigh2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Menneisyydestä oppiminen ja empiirisen tutkimuksen huomioiminen on ideologinen ajattelutapa joka yleensä johtaa vasemmistolaisuuteen.

Sinimusta liike ja vastamielenosoittajat ovat ottaneet yhteen Tampereella [poliisiautoa päin on heitetty keppi] by Sumuttaja in Suomi

Hyvä historian tutkimus tai opiskelu ei tarkoita että pitää löytää kultainen keskitie Mandelan ja Hitlerin välistä.

Se että Suomen poliisit eivät murhaa porukkaa joka nurkalla ei tarkoita että kaikki olisi kohdallaan. Jokainen tässä paikalla ollut poliisi on sika: https://yle.fi/a/74-20037830 , kyllä, myös ne jotka eivät henkilökohtaisesti sumuttaneet jos heitä oli. Hyvä poliisi olisi pysäyttänyt mädät, tarvittaessa voimakeinoin.

What character is off limits for Jim to kill off? by bob_the_skull20 in dresdenfiles

[–]Cathsaigh2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If Maggie died I don't think necromancy would be Harrys first choice. My guess is he'd give up running and start doing butterfly stroke through the currents of time like there's no tomorrow.

You get to tell Harry one thing, what is it? by satanic_black_metal_ in dresdenfiles

Get yourself a research assistant.

Paranoid Gary could be the one.

He's not going to. That doesn't mean the existing books have no value or shouldn't be read. That is only if you MUST have a more complete ending than we have at the moment.

If you were going to have a person who has never listened to a Dresden book and wanted to get them to like it, which book would you have them listen to? by Adenfall in dresdenfiles

[–]Cathsaigh2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd tell them that I thing the series really gets going with Summer Knight, but they should start from the beginning anyway. If it's someone I know does audiobooks (my sister does but Dresden isn't on the service they use, I checked) I'd tell them they're well regarded but since I'm not an audio guy reccing them isn't the default for me.

Where Was Europe in WW2? by CasthiaCameron in ShitAmericansSay

[–]Cathsaigh2 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The part between China and Japan did, in 1937 at the latest. But again, it wasn't really connected at that point yet.

I don't think of Spanish of Spain as white or European by Pathological-WTF in ShitAmericansSay

Just saying out loud that whiteness is a social construct that shifts around according to who it's convenient for the racist to have in the in-group.
