I think his “squire” had one, so maybe they get conflated XD

Good to know! It’d be a cool reference, but I guess it wouldn’t really fit with Geralt’s character. He’s pretty far off from Don Quixote XD
Wasn’t it a donkey? I think it was named Rocinante? Idk, I read it like 16 years ago.
Edit post-Wikipedia: it was a workhorse, not a donkey, but I nailed the name. I’ve wondered in the past if Geralt’s horse Roach in The Witcher was a nod to Rocinante

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What movies out there have horrible taste and poorly thought-out plots but were excellently executed?

Fuck AI@lemmy.world•Should we destroy all the books in the world?

My guess is the list was originally less comprehensive and someone expanded it using different symbols
Edit: nvm
- ✔️ = Yes (bad)
- ✅ = Yes (good)
- ❌ = No (bad)
- ❎ = No (good)
- 🤏 = Little bit
Only if they get to be the dictator XD
And moon is called Luna
That’s why an orbit around the sun is “solar” and an orbit around the moon is 'lunar"
It seems like earth is just called earth for most spaceflight purposes (e.g. low-earth orbit), although the word for it in some Latin languages comes from “terra”
I think it’d be fun to call earth “Humus”. We get words like posthumous, exhume, humility from it, and it’s theorized that it may share an origin with the word Homo, from which we get “Human”.
So if we called it Earth we’d be Earthlings, if we call it Terra we’d be Terrans, if we called it Tellus we’d be Tellurians, but if we called it Humus we could stay as Humans =D
