          You’d better start believing in historical trends. You’re in one. 👻

      Each line is a tree in a forest.

        The only water in the forest is the river.

          Humans and trees both have lineages, leaves do not because leaves do not reproduce.

          I’m pretty sure all bloodlines have circles.

            Well, I suppose if you go backwards your family tree has circles. But nowadays incest isn’t particularly common is it?

              Most cultures frown uppn it but cousin marriage is very common is some parts of the world. There is a great wikipedia article on Incest.

              But I was really talking about the former. The likelihood that not a single crossing has happened since the beginning of like is very small.

                Fair, it’ll be a bit of a whacky tree. But definitely not a line

        Trees can have cycles, but trees will always be Trees.
