It's like those games where there's the rock papers scissors elements, and then there's two outliers that are super effective against each otherIt definitely makes sense that just as you are my weakness, I am yours. Or maybe it doesn't make sense, but it definitely makes me happy.
My teacher certainly wasn't, considering all the big circles around my grammatical errors. I don't even know how I manage to write coherent sentences these days.
In terms of LNs, I only got into them in 2018, and I certainly didn't think I could write like in hardcover books. I mostly made poetry about the first thing that comes to my mind, so sceneries, recent events, memories. Or something random and absurd, like that time I made a poem of how I would be like if I was cake.
I've had to transcribe audio into word docs before, so copying actual text you understand with 100% certainty is a lot more pleasant of an experience. I get into a flow state of sorts and it becomes an almost therapeutic experience. It definitely doesn't apply to everyone though.
It's mostly because I just have them collect dust in a drawer somewhere, minimal risk of damage if you don't use them at all!
Dropbox definitely isn't worth using now since it has a huge target painted on its back.Hold on, hold on, I definitely needed to clarify things here.
Sorry, I'm aware of the art movement, but that wasn't what came to my mind, I also didn't know about the politics, since I'm pretty ignorant about those. I'm talking about Futurism in the context of science, which is predicting what the future holds for us(it's usually wildly off the mark, but its interesting and fuels my optimism. I suppose people call it Futurology or Future Studies like some. The topic can be politically charged, but not every futurist talks about it in terms of politics... though I do admit that politics is a part of it... especially in a certain time period that you may be thinking of.I seeThe Futurists were a circle of particularly extreme artists and intellectuals. They could be described as interventionists and even warmongers. They exalted violence and conflict as means of evolution. Their cornerstones were machines, dynamism, and speed; they celebrated technology and industry, seeing them as symbols of progress and human power.
It is an extremely progressive thought that sought to break with the past to create an aesthetic suited to modernity (which is ironically a contradiction with the conservative party it is associated with).
By the way, this work by Carlo Carrà is one of my favorites. I have a printed copy hanging in my office.
I've heard of the art movement before, but I've never really had someone explain it so passionately to me.So, I may as well reciprocate. There's no single definition of futurology that all futurists would agree on, but it's basically thinking of the future. Obviously, that has many parts to it, like society, economy and science. But I'm mostly interested in the science part of it. Occasionally, I do think of the social aspect, though.
The topics are very interesting, and are not just great engines for sci-fi, but for the alt history of many fantasy settings. I have a gen z attention span, so I mostly stick to youtubers.
I watch a lot of miscellaneous content too, but I have trouble recalling their names so I think this should be enough. To be honest, I approach things from a more creative viewpoint since I barely understand half of the topics talked about.
https://publicdomainreview.org/collection/a-19th-century-vision-of-the-year-2000/ Does this count as a part of Futurism(the art movement)? Curious. You may have already seen these, they're fairly popular when people talk about predictions for the future.
To me, it doesn't make a difference. If the thing has my memories, acts like me, thinks like me, behaves like me, has the exact same goals and dreams as me. Then it is me. It doesn't matter if this "me" dies, I still live on in that exact copy.
If you happen to be religious, this might offend you, but I can't really consider the me of say, 10 years ago to be the same individual as the person I am now. That me certainly would not approve or even understand my current mindset. Despite that, it's all still a part of my identity. So I don't mind transferring my consciousness into a machine or digital space.
That said, I won't be so reckless as to wire my brain to a computer or something. Even if the tech miraculously becomes available, I'll slowly replace parts of myself with mechanical ones instead of doing it all at once.

The Civilization series. I used to watch my dad play on his computer. Then I finally managed to get my hands on Civ V and I figured out how bad of a player he was
It got me interested in the course of history, and particularly in the war aspect since I played on Emperor+ difficulty where the AI rushes you with like dozens of units. My strategy is rushing superior technology and crushing the AI with ranged units, so that's probably where my firepower addiction came from.It sort of just snowballed from there and one day I was listening to Sabaton songs while playing Azur Lane. I'm not as passionate about it as before though. I've forgotten a lot of things already.
Ah, heroic last stands. It's not particularly meaningless, it shows the character of the leaders and followers. Constantine XI for example. Cultures like those tend to stick. They say history is written by the victors, but it's really just who has the better recordkeeping (being victorious generally leads to your records surviving).
Sometimes it's just down to luck. And between my dice rolls and gacha rolls, I don't know whether life wants me alive or dead.
No regrets for me! If it didn't happen then, it would have happened a few years later with gacha games.
You nuke with EGO? They're single coin so they're not that much in terms of damage, with some exceptions(wingbeat ishmael). Skills tend to do more, though it's usually skill 3s. Newer units have high damage on their skill 2s, though. Like Pointillist Yi Sang.
Hey! Mabel does exist in the original Alice in Wonderland, she has like, 1 line dedicated to her. >_> But yeah, you're right that I did have her in mind while making that Mabel.You also used her name in the role-playing game.
They tend to not have that mental filter that goes "yeah let's not include this because the public finds it morally reprehensible." It's really a double-edged sword. It leads to the most messed up things that happen for no reason, or one of the most beautiful stories about the indomitable human spirit.
Watch a playthrough of the first. You do need some of the context (Particularly End C and End D). It's just that the gameplay of the first is just not that interesting and it doesn't have as much to explore as the second. The artstyle also isn't quite as refined. Definitely play through the second though, the experience is not the same as watching it.
To be honest, it's all the same to me. But you're programming as a hobby, so what matters is you're using the one you enjoy more. I also heard VX ace has a lot more useful plugins.
Maybe do consider playing through black souls 1 actually, if you're interested in this character. She plays a lot more of a role there.
I watch/read hentai for plot. Unironically. I don't really find the H-scenes of Black Souls too interesting, the MC is depicted as... humanoid blob thing(fair enough, he's the POV insert) and it's all quite vanilla even if the context is not. With the exception of some scenes in BS2, toro decided to play to his strengths in that one. Also there's a trap so that's a plus.Ego te absolvo. ? We all know that the best hentai are those with thick plots.
Don't worry, I'm not looking into it. From the the synopsis alone I am most certainly not in the target audience
I've already encountered the story before we met on SHF, I was surprised you wrote it for a second then I realized it makes total sense.*looks it up*
The most unsettling part here is how the author keeps it up for 1470 chapters.
I do have my own issues. I could write 3k words of just dialogue between 3 characters, but I struggle with the action in between. By action I'm referring to facial expressions, non-verbal cues, and little things to prevent talking heads syndrome. That makes it so that there's a lot of filler that I feel like just shouldn't belong there. I write in big bursts and then there's long periods of time where I struggle to write a single sentence (put things down, delete, repeat). Since I can't ever find a scene that I'm not satisfied with.
At that point, it's best to just bang your head against the wall and chug along even if you hate what you're writing. Then you wake up tomorrow and come to one of two realizations:
1. It really wasn't that bad, and you're satisfied with your work.
2. It really IS that bad, but you know why now and rewriting goes smoothly.
Or if you're me, you crumple up that digital paper and end up at square one. But that's an extreme case.
True, maybe I should kidnap, I mean, reacquisition one of her drones fluttering around and have one of the more techy members of the family reverse engineer it.It happens that Shizuki is particularly attracted to someone who is very close to me...
I like to keep consistency, so if the MC lives in Sufferland they will suffer too. And probably have negative traits that make me not feel so bad for them. My Mary Sue characters meanwhile are in wacky, absurd settings where realistic logic and behavior isn't expected of them anyways.Mary Sue in Sufferland
In this case it is not necessary.
Of course! But if daikons are involved we both have to complete a ritual and a prayer. And if chocolate is mixed with daikon, I have to consult goddess daikon for that. I'm not sure if that's sacrilegious or not...
