so apparently in 815 CE there was a common belief that sky pirates sailed ships in the clouds and (working in collaberation with frankish weather wizards) stole all the crops that got damaged in storms and took them back to the cloud realm of magonia.

And this was apparently a common enough belief that an archbishop felt the need to write a treatise to debunk it and insist that only god controls the weather, which is the only reason we know about it.

there are three important points to take from this, i think

This is great inspiration for your next dnd game

Tropes that might seem relatively modern (like airship pirates) can often actually go WAY back

The stuff your average medieval christian actually believed in will often have very little resemblance to christianity. And thats before you even get to the proper heretics. EDIT: people keep asking for the source and its now been added multiple times in different reblog chains. I should have put it in the original post but i am a fool: https://sourcebooks.fordham.edu/source/Agobard-OnHailandThunder.asp

deepl being based on more modern ai means that it works a lot better than translation programs before it, especially for casual conversation. it has a little more sensitivity to context, which means it can propose less straightforward and literal translations that better convey the intended meaning

it's very important to check your outputs. this was impressed even further today when I saw someone's serious message get an entire blushing kaomoji added on

It’s incredible when people say shit like this. because think about it. Pyongyang is a city of 2.5 million people. why would they build a fake subway. it’s INCREDIBLE what propaganda about other countries can make people think. I remember when I was in high school, and the talks between the US and dprk were going on, my AP government teacher pointed at the North’s building on the other side of the DMZ and said “that building is actually only 5 feet deep. it’s a fake building meant to look imposing.” and at the time I believed it. but like. why would they do that. what would there be to gain from making the facade of a building visible from only one angle.
