That's a really good point about map scales

And expanding on Paul’s point about the comparative distances, I think flat world maps don’t do much justice- I once scrolled across a “fun fact” ad or whatever illustrating that the distance across Australia (Perth to either Sydney or Melbourne) is actually greater than that from London to Moscow (crazy given how big most people think of Russia as being compared to the US perhaps, and Moscow is pretty far to the east)- also, I’m not sure, but maybe flat maps don’t usually actually scale the distance of the Atlantic between the Americas and Europe/Africa because there’s no point in showing the excess water with no landmarks (plus it would make for an extra wide map). Maybe a globe is better for scaling, but how many of us are popping one out when we’re researching or just satisfying a curiosity about something geography related lol

2023-05-09 23:52:34 +0000 UTCThe distance between America and Denmark is 4500 miles, while that between England and Denmark is 500 miles, so the difference is even bigger than you thought. Vikings really wouldn't have much reason to go there (even if they knew it existed, not knowing would give them even less reason to go). I'm sure you know jessie was intended to die at the end of S1 of BB, so it's funny you use "jessie isn't going to die" as an example of something a story would never do. You're right, once S1 was over and he became permenant cast, but the example proves the "plan" of a show (the things that can't possibly happen, or have to happen) can change after it starts airing (unsure if this applies to animation, as the BB case was due to actor chemistry and ability, which isn't as much of a thing in animation.... then again i've seen characters in manga who weren't originally intended to be important become as key as jessie when they became really popular).
