How can you form ideas without language, then? How can you form societies without language? Even animals have primitive languages. Before that, thoughts were concrete images, not abstract things. Why are you shitting on everything that's been agreed upon by humanity?

Language... a social construct? Miss me with that. Social Construct: an idea that has been created and accepted by the people in a society. Ideas don't exist without language.

Wrong. Definitions exist for a reason, Languages are fluid in their evolution through time when adding new words and meanings. Not when people misuse words. Context can only take you so far before people don't understand what you're talking about. Let's take your example, Whore, there exist a...

Remember that you are free to make up words in your fiction as long as you provide the meaning. Maybe in the universe you're writing they use different words. You can use animals to reference how they are on the hunt, and pick an animal that fits your kitsune character. Foxes are omnivores. They...

First, a playboy is a man who flirts with a lot of women. A womanizer is a man who has had many women. For females you'd have: Coquette, minx, cougar, seductress, and many, many more.

The Mc of my story is Russian, so of course: First arc Opening: Snakes in Tracksuits. Gopnik McBlyat - Snakes in Tracksuits - YouTube She'd have a bottle of homemade Kvass in her right hand while dancing. Her partners would be awkwardly trying to imitate her dancing hardstyle, and it would be...

Dunno, still have at least four more months to plan it out... It's winter right now where I live so yeah...

I hope this helps, turned out longer than I intended lol What I've seen so far in most non-linear stories, is that the non-linear aspect is explained pretty early. "I'm a Spider, So What?" has issues because of this, the first flashforward was pretty late into the story, and the audience got...

Those are miko clothing, nothing to do with kimono/yukata. The Hakama (pants) are tied at the waist, or higher, so the tail slit would always be at the same place. This is how a lot of Gods with tails work around it, there is actually a 'canon' version of the miko outfit with a tail slit for a...

Anything that has to do with normal biological functions. First period? Cringe. Pregnancy? Cringe. Dying? Cringe. Being born? Cringe.

I have an iPhone, so I'd just play with Siri all day and make something from it. AI's are supposed to be imperfect 'individuals' or 'beings' so the shittier the interaction, the more realistic imo. If the AI has a personality, it's no longer an AI in my eyes. AI's don't have nonverbal cues, nor...

Would you think of that as the targeted 'critique' this thread talks about? Or would you think of it as a friend's opinion? (Not that it's less valuable) Again, would you consider that the kind of 'unsolicited critique' we're all talking about? Being called naive is not an insult, nor is it...

Let's consider cambridge dictionary's definition of 'critique' 'a report of something such as a political situation or system, or a person's work or ideas, that examines it and provides a judgment, especially a negative one' Who asks this? How can a critique be anything other than...

"Be not afraid" while experiencing the most terrifying moment of my life.

Most likely people would want to hug me to release me from the suffering that is Kiryu Coco announcing her graduation.

I think of Yun Qianying from Against The Gods when a competent villan is mentioned. She's ruthless, took her losses in stride, became a slave to protect her realm (for one day, no funny business allowed), extremely smart (erased her own memories before becoming a slave. weird for a xianxia)...
