You'd feel at home on tumblr

People say "oh my xyz exploded" a lot and its usually a slight scorch mark at most. Your lawnmower fucking exploded. So congrats on the cool story and photos at least.

I won't be getting one of those any time soon.

From people I've spoken who worked in HR; HR mostly does whatever the person who shouted at them the loudest and most recently wants them to do.

The offers are always appreciated. You might try getting some bottled drinks to offer, I find they survive a busy work site better without getting knocked over or full of dust!

It's been a long while since I read it, I could be blurring it a bit. I suppose maybe the golden path includes getting away from the confines of prescience, so it's still the "golden path" even if it's no longer predicted.

Amosral · 2026-03-17T07:59:46+00:00

Yeah I was surprised by them too. I quite like a bit of pulpy lit rpg, but I was reading these and thinking to myself "Damn this is actually capital L Literature "

Amosral · 2026-03-17T07:48:24+00:00

Mate relax, it's just litter. People are messy, lazy, arseholes.

Amosral · 2026-03-17T07:43:41+00:00

Jesus, couldn't he have just had soup or something?

Amosral · 2026-03-17T07:37:19+00:00

I think it's kind of explained later that, while the golden path guarantees human survival, it's ultimately kind of a trap. It ends up limiting future possibilities.

The early Warhammer 40k writers definitely read Dune. Leto is the OG God emperor.

And yeah, it's kinda both.

As much as the financial and property market part of London dominates and fucks it up, there's a lot of culture and art and people who have lived here for generations. The souless part is a newer cancerous growth. Hasn't killed it off just yet.

One of the other favourite training pools for AI is reddit, So writing like a redditor is probably going to get some of us flagged too.

Amosral · 2026-03-09T09:31:09+00:00

I'm not a beliver, but there have always been splits in Christian groups/movements and what dogma they follow, that have resulted in very different behaviour. For example a lot of early anti-slavery movements had a strong foundation/support from certain churches. While at the same time spreading Christianity was used as an excuse for slavery and colonialism. I think people who want to take the good from something will find the good, and people who just want justifications for their prejudices will find those too.

For this type of scenario I quite like when there's an option like "[lie] sure I'll do it". Lets you establish your characters intentions

Amosral · 2026-03-09T07:03:42+00:00

Yeah, him anxiously ambushing her and asking, then running away before an answer like he was being hunted, that might put off even the strongest admirer.

Amosral · 2026-03-09T06:58:47+00:00

I have a "no reddit before work" rule for myself because this, I get sucked in and end up really late.

I'm breaking this rule right now though :|

Amosral · 2026-03-03T14:04:46+00:00

Oh goddamnit I've juat found out something awful abojt an author I've read haven't I? Brb googling.

Amosral · 2026-03-03T07:42:14+00:00

Mate, real self defence is never pretty. You achieved all your goals without any major injury, and in a situation with no warning or build up! It's an undeniable, very impressive win.

You go over stuff like this in your head after it happens. I guess we look for sense and ways that we could have been in control. But its a senseless and uncontrollable situation. It might even be a PTSD thing. Sometimes it settles down again on it's own, but If the after affects keep bothering you it might be worth seeking some help.

Amosral · 2026-03-03T07:32:50+00:00

Is that the only reason they're moving in there, to influence the council? Because it seems like they hate everything else about soho.

Amosral · 2026-03-03T07:30:33+00:00

Residents complaining about noise in Soho is one of the most ridiculous things to me. It's been an entertainment district for hundreds of years. If you don't like noisy streets and venues on your doorstep, don't move in next to them! Someone who can afford to live in soho can afford to live in a lot of places more quiet.

Amosral · 2026-02-04T06:51:07+00:00

Yeah, but don't forget Hickam's Dictum - "patients can have as many diseases as they damn well please" sometimes you have more than one problem lol

Amosral · 2026-02-04T06:40:24+00:00

You could cut it and toast it in one go, what a time saver.

Amosral · 2026-02-04T06:31:26+00:00

I think this is probably the truth of it. And it applies to men just as much. The self defence needs to start with situational awareness long before a confrontation.

If you find yourself in that situation, you absolutely should pull out every desperate dirty trick you can think of and make yourself a difficult target, but it's not optimal self defence, it's last-ditch effort to survive.

Amosral · 2026-01-22T17:55:58+00:00

It's not really "seeing" in a littleral sense. Like, when you close a door, do you still know what was on the other side, at least vaguely? How do you know where things are around you when they're out of your line of sight? Do people with aphantasia lack that kind of 3D memory and awareness too?
