Despite using words, negotiation is impossible. I suppose this is where the old adage "don't feed the trolls" asserts its continued relevance. Move along everyone, nothing else to see here. Log off and get some sleep.

There is an expected eventuallity where genAI art starts getting substantially worse. As AI images become more common, the training aggregates start including AI art. As the portion of a training set represented by AI art increases, the AI trained on it becomes much further abstracted from the...

Not just a necro, but an especially rude one having absolutely nothing to do with the original topic.

There were a lot. Mononokehime, Starship Troopers, Barefoot Gen, It (the milder 1990 version), Saving Private Ryan, Schindler's List, The Ring, Slaughterhouse 5... My older sister had ridiculous tolerance for horror and violence even as a kid, so my parents learned a very skewed reference for...

They are so far out of style right now that they're stranded on a moon three starsystems away from popular, but I always love a small steps hero. A protagonist who does the right thing because its the right thing to do, and neither rewards nor punishments change what's right...

Milk.

You have me at a disadvantage. This is a skill issue indeed. Theoretically possible, but for most authors prohibitively difficult in implementation. Probably something anyone can do if they are struck with compulsive inspiration, unlimited financial resources, and maybe a personal media research...

Does it count if you hate big oil and the novel is about environmentalist vigilante fluffkins committing corporate sabotage? Then this one. https://www.scribblehub.com/series/1284282/kitsune-of-the-magic-mountain/

The fall came in a way nobody expected. Everybody expected a pandemic. Some people even expected an std pandemic, afterall there were still some old folks who were alive for the aids crises. But nobody expected the Oakcall. Pollen alergies had been getting worse for decades. Everyone thought it...

I would imagine summoning would be an outrageous power for a baby. Summoners usually impart their needs into their spells, to help pick a suitable summon and inform them what kind of job they are needed for. Imagine a baby that has spent the last hour constipated and has no idea that the...

Generally speaking, its not actually possible to write a story where science works in a vastly different way than for reality. The worldbuilding may SAY reality works different. But soon enough an attentive reader will find that many of the things and places that exist, as well as the way...

I really don't like the "Return to Mundania" ending trope that used to be the norm in portal fantasy. The MC would put in tireless effort to train their mystical yuusha powers, fight endless difficult battles, and be forced to make harsh decisions before they manage to save the foreign world...

Sadly I don't think it is available on Scribblehub anymore. I don't quite remember the name either. The foxgirl named her own tail Shiro a long time before she realized it was actually conscious. It was an adventure type story, with the MCs traveling around to defeat the human slaver hegemony...

Japan sure likes to turn random things into cute girls. From Hitler to Cthulhu, from flatworms to t-rex, from Jesus to Buddha, from spaceships to hive-minds, and from soda cans to the planet Jupiter, everything can be a girl. Especially any high-school boys known for having bad luck.

There must be a better way to phrase this. Please do not laugh at the authors here. I don't doubt you genuinely want to help authors here by sharing your expertise, but you are being a little heavy handed about it. People are not going to be receptive to your advice if you keep laughing at...

I agree that there are usually better ways to reveal/subtly hint/gradually inform/state directly and unambiguously/etc. to the reader about the plot than waffling and narration. But in the end these are still only tools. They can in fact have a place in a well written scene. For example, "Wow...

I read the manga version of that one like ten years ago. It really is quite the surreal plot. Exactly the kind of story I am looking for here.

A while ago I read a story where the MC was reincarnated as a foxgirl's tail. It wouldn't win any awards, but it was a fun and satisfying read, and the way the MCs interacted with each other was really charming. I'm kind of in the mood for something similar. Does anyone know of any other stories...

What range does orbital bombardment fall under?

Blueberries have nearly the same sugar, water, and acid content, and also mechanical strength, as tomatoes. You can substitute tomatoes out for blueberries almost everywhere, whether on pizza, in pasta, in an omelet, and even on a sandwich.
