    How does one deal with something like that?

    Sounds like a toxic work environment. It's not that you have qualities they dislike, it's that the company culture mandates the existence of a scapegoat for people to shit on and treat poorly, and you just so happened to join at a time where they were looking for one, or you had some kind of...

    Why is the DBZ formula so attractive

    It's not just numbers go brr, it's also the story and themes surrounding it. That part was done really well, and the rest is window dressing for giving it an impact

    Anoying/hateable character in story

    Thank goodness for the John Brown isekai. All slave owners get executed on the righteous path to freedom!

    Pov: looking for a nice book.

    If you want dungeon stuff and hate smut, then my story might be a good fit! It's about a smart spider in a dungeon filled with much stronger but dumb enemies, and the spider has to learn to survive and grow to the top...

    My Muse is back!

    I feel like I need to realize this too. I've been having trouble getting back into writing for the sake of it, and I'm trying to figure out how to reorient myself so I actually just write for fun.

    If you had a choice, would you transmigrate into your novel?

    There's a reason why I added a hidden universal rule where if I say a certain passphrase in the worlds of any of my stories, I'll automatically become all-powerful. Weirdly paranoid, but y'all could do the same if anyone ever inherits the isekai nightmare dream. Might as well make sure my time...

    Best tablet games for toddlers

    The problem is when the tablet takes the place of the parenting altogether. If it's a small amount of time spent on an edutainment game every few days, rather than something like hours upon hours every day on whatever flashy light brainrot elsagate style content farm garbage, then it's just...

    Best tablet games for toddlers

    Reader rabbit, and anything made by humongous entertainment aimed for that age range. Humongous titles are likely to have been ported to mobile, but idk about reader rabbit. That's what I played when I was a toddler

    Writing Seeking Writing Advice from Experienced Authors

    The best advice is to just start writing, and keep writing! There'll be mistakes with the grammar and the story overall, but that's natural. Use your text editor (Word, Google Sheets, etc.) for spellcheck and grammar check. Finding issues with the story or writing in general will be harder, but...

    The secret to a good power(magic) system.

    That kind of explains the front page of the Rising Stars section on Royal Road. They're ALL some form of Isekai LitRPG and the only thing they have to differentiate them is the specific power of the main character (necromancer, cultivation but with X or Y focus, money = exp, etc.) but it all...

    Ringposition

    You can wear a ring if you want where you want, but people will assume you're in a committed relationship if you wear a ring on a ring finger. So it really depends on whether you're fine with strangers thinking that about you.

    Writing How to write a “good” Isekai Fan-Fiction

    What's the full name of the YouTube channel, do you have a link? I absolutely hated the unmet potential of korra. Glad to see I'm not the only one.

    Hot takes

    Minus the food points (because I don't eat at any of those places), you're pretty much spot on. For the science thing, no study existed that showed aspartame (the artificial sweetener in diet coke) was bad so the people who clung too tightly to them said that all of the people saying that it was...

    Writing How to write a “good” Isekai Fan-Fiction

    The best fanfics understand the themes of the story and specific character motivations, and have those things shine when a different scenario or character is introduced. For ATLA, we've got Aang's no-matter-what pacifism, Sokka's meat loving and sarcasm, Katara's motherliness, etc. That...

    How do you resist the urge to turn your stories into degenerate orgies?

    Honestly? Yeah, pretty much. I write because I have cool ideas and actually cool things make me super excited. Horny stuff is just a primal urge, not something deep or meaningful that's worth turning into true captivating art (beyond something to jerk off to).

    Fellow Cultivation Enjoyers

    Ah. Doesn't the former apply in that case?
