imho it’s #1 because of all the characters, if you combine the depth of each it can surpass TNG easily…

to me, the tie is between 2nd and 3rd place: tng vs. voyager

4th mmm lower decks?

( And 5th is Babylon /s … Hehe. Then 6th red dwarf )

Many people would feel good about helping out. Keep that in mind. I try to think about it when offered help. Else I was always saying no, and it turns out it may also be a trauma response. My braing being used to doing things myself, not wanting to feel dependant, or -as it was said- bothering others (I am a people pleaser)

DenuvOwO got your back if I am not mistaken

Are you British? Just kidding. But recipes do have a creative process. Chantilly cream was invented. Same as any other desserts or dishes. And parts of a recipe, like whipping cream, are reused throughout other recipes…

I won’t argue on the remainder of your post because I rather just keep it as different world views. You have decided to defend copyright. We just disagree.

Look at kitchen recipes. They have no copyright. Chefs and restaurants still make money. That’s what I meant to arbitrary, they are the pillars to a made up scenario, or paradigm. You are answering from within, unable to see the alternative because without copyright capitalism would collapse. That was my point when comparing to nation states. I know I am parroting crazy thoughts, but I believe they are useful for creative rebellion and imagining a world that might as well be possible and perhaps even better. Copyright and competitiveness are not real good drivers for innovation, they’re just the rules of the game. Another game, rooted on cooperation may as well determine different rules for winning and the very definition of success could be another one in such a social system…

Copyright has always been a complete arbitrary joke, just like nations’ imaginary limits on terrain. We can live without those one day, they are just fundamental to bigger powers and their concentration of wealth. We, as layman or even peasants, should not care much.
