I've noticed this effect. At one point I noticed that two Wikipedia pages had differing opinions about whether a particular war had major impacts or was insignificant in the the history of Venezia, and both had sources. Of course, I have no way of knowing which interpretation was correct, so I just kind of left it there. You know, as research for our terraformed!Mars!gondoliers, from a manga that seems barely aware of real world history.
I also have another Meta comment: my phone's screen broke to the extent that I can't unlock the thing, and honestly, it's been really good for my writing and mental health? I've read 6 books in the past week, compared to that many for the past year. And then I came across this thing on Reddit, a snippet of a 2016 book talking about how J.K. Rowling eschews social media and as a result gets more work done. It's in /r/agedlikemilk, because starting around 2017, she got really into Twitter, and from there seems to have been radicalized by the anti-trans movement. Maybe the internet is bad for us, says a guy who makes websites? Her writing seems to have decreased since then, both in quantity and quality. (Personally, I feel like Jo has some nice logical points, which unfortunately don't actually apply in the particular illogical world in which we all live. Basically like how I think the laws of Robotics are a great idea to protect humanity, but Ukraine also needs autonomous killing drones because of Russian signal jamming.) In any case, when we're using Harry Potter stuff in the setting, remember that this is set before before Jo jumped off the turnip truck.
