It's funny how certain elements of the fandom are so resistant to the idea that Mace Windu defeated Palpatine fair and square... When I thought the entire purpose of Palpatine's plan was to avoid detection and infiltrate the Republic specifically so the Jedi wouldn't catch on and come for him?
Like if Palpatine really is just so stupidly powerful that nobody could ever defeat him there wouldn't even be a purpose to his big plan. He would just attack outright at the head of the Separatists or he'd order the Clone Army for himself or something. The fact that he didn't shows that he knew the Jedi were a threat to him.
So surely Mace Windu, the second most powerful Jedi after Yoda and the one who specialized in anti-Sith techniques would be able to defeat him in battle. If he couldn't and Palpatine was just playing him, Anakin's decision served no narrative purpose because it wouldn't have changed anything anyways.

Fact: The earliest reliably dated use of the phrase “fucked up” appears in the court records of a US Navy court-martial case from 1863; the way the phrase is used suggests that its meaning was already well known at the time, but this is the first known printed record of it that we can confidently put a date to.
Additional fact: Bram Stoker’s Dracula is set in 1897.
Conclusion: It would not anachronistic for your Dracula fanfic to have a character describe the Count as a fucked up old man.

thinking about dracula and how it could be best adapted/reimagined in a modern setting
like. most of it could really just stay the same, just add social media/modern tech into it.
jonathan harker is a realtor in england who also has a semi-famous food instagram which is just photos of his fiance, mina, or photos of all the different types of food he likes. he's on a business trip in trannsylvania and Experiences The Horrors.
mina harker is a school teacher who's only a little well-known because her fiance posts her on his instagram quite a bit. mina likes to collect stationary, probably has an amazing bullet journal, and loves to send letters to her bestie lucy.
lucy is probably some sort of rich girl/famous person/instagrammer/model type. like, not millions of followers, but enough to have attracted the attention of many men who want to date her. she's found herself in a little friend group with arthur, dr. seward, and quincy.
they're a bit of an odd friend group, but they probably met in college or something. i can so see quincy studying agriculture or something. why is quincy studying in england when he's a texan? maybe it was a study abroad program and he met dr. seward and arthur and they kept up with each other after graduation so he visits often
dracula is a boomer. he does not understand phones and thinks they're fancy baubles.
