    I remember telling my mom I’d make a good Spinster, just hanging out at home, doing needle work. She laughed and said, “You’re black, you’d be a slave.”

    More than likely, you would not have been a knight, you would have been a peasant working the fields for your short life before dying of some incurable bacterial infection when you got a cut on some of your farm tools.

      I see what you’re saying

      And it’s correct

      But

      A lot of people also long for the relative simplicity and predictability of peasant life.

      What is the entirety of the cottagecore aesthetic if not a longing for that? (well, that and a hint of racism but y’know y’know y’know)

      One of these literally shows a dead soldier in a field of flowers so, yeah.

      It’s idle longing. I could give up my career, move to a deeply rural area, and break my back doing menial jobs until I die of health complications at 64. I won’t, but it’s nice to long for the imagined simplicity sometimes y’know?

      You obviously don’t play chess. It’s called horsey, not knight

            Wikipedia is full of libtard bigots. Even Musk hates them, that’s how biased they are.

    Pretty sure you aren’t born to battle to a senseless death for a greedy overlord. You’re born to exhaustion hunt prey and gather seeds and roots
