How many readers/followers did the original have? If more than a handful, post new and keep old up, with a link to the new one on each chapter in the notes. Otherwise, delete the old one after the new has been up for about a week.

Actually that longest route, the guy drove three blocks before turning on the meter - one of those blocks (the last one) in heavy traffic. Most of these trips were either early morning, before there was much traffic, or after 10 PM when there was ... more than in the morning but not a lot more...

I had an International Literature (African Literature) class in college, and it was jarring to see how race was depicted in South African "contemporary" (written between 1950 and 1989) fiction. IIRC, there were seven levels of "color" PLUS Indian (anyone who looked like they had ancestors from...

Seems to have become a generic greeting, at least in the New England part of the United States, in the last two or three years, for anyone. Also, the fights between the cab drivers' unions and rideshare apps a few years ago (MOST of them fought in the legislature or on TV and Radio ads...

No - but then, decades of running roleplaying games made me understand how overplanning can backfire badly.

Here's a link if you're curious then: The Kaiju System | Honeyfeed

If it has lyrics or is something I don't know well, it will often distract me. Have done some stuff while listening to Petrushka's Firebird Suite, Holszt's The Planets or other instrumentals but don't do it very often.

99.99% likely a scam. Note that given that a lot of K-dramas were developed from Korean comic books, and a lot of those are slow burn slice of life things, ANYTHING could make a decent comic (a lot of the "underground" stuff in the US in the 90s that I saw was similar to the content of...

I woke up surrounded by police and media types in Central Park. The one night I decided to sleep in the nude... That night, my guests showed up, expecting gazpacho soup. I followed Lister's recipe perfectly.

Simple slashers? Most of my MCs would shrug and make a comment about "must be Tuesday" or something. Demonblade in True Blue IS a super-powered slasher, and a recurring playmate of Indigos (if I ever get back to his story). The story that "first" brings Sparrow (pre-Strange Awakening) and...

A girl I graduated with was literally reading while still in diapers (she wound up #3 in our class, just missing #2 due to a single C grade in one class; our only 4.0+ died that spring when a drunk driver hit him after he dropped off his date and was heading home after a dance).

I don't mind the merge but am annoyed that it gets listed as "new activity" every time.

Maybe it's like one of the stories I listen to on Pocket FM - I'm convinced the actual author writes about 500 words per chapter, then has AI pad each one out to 2000.

Hmm. Well, I've never posted a harem story (have one about seven chapters long so far, two chapters which are also smut), never written about incest (unless you count vague suggestions about how the initial gods came into being in the fantasy stuff), and only have some "borderline smut" in...

My parents were always reading - both had been teachers and dad was a reporter, then editor, then ... a bunch of things for a local newspaper group, while mom became a librarian and substitute teacher once I was old enough to be left on my own. When I was around, they read aloud. I was exposed...

I had no desire to read going into kindergarten. By the time I started first grade, I was reading at least at a third-grade level, and my teacher told my parents "It was an experience having Charles when we did the unit on dinosaurs. He kept correcting my pronunciation - and the two times he...

(MC)'s brow furrowed. He broke out in a cold sweat...

Sounds like a much shorter version of the Monty Python Cheese Shop sketch...

The way I understood it (from New Mutants and the Official Handbook to the Marvel Universe - the TV series Legion seemed to tweak him a bit more) was that he can fold space and time to "capture" anything he wants. If he captures a person with powers, he gains their powers, to use at any time...

Unless he's been revised yet again, he technically did not - each of those personalities was someone he absorbed during a terrorist attack or later (including part of Shadow King's shadow, so he can manifest inside David, control him sometimes, and sometimes appear through him)...
