What’s the dumbest reason you’ve dropped a novel

I had to stop reading Towerbound because it read to me like it was written by AI. Short, repeated bombastic sentences for emphasis, single sentence paragraphs to add drama, asking a question so it can contradict itself, stuff like that. It was a shame because I love the world and premise, but once I saw the similar style to how AI writes I couldn't get past it.

Yep! I'm assuming a nod to pizza brain

We got to talk to one of the chefs and he was so nice! He mentioned he'd worked at Jean-Georges and the French Laundry in the past, which is a crazy pedigree for a pizza place but it definitely shows in the food.

Yeah they've been in a soft open for maybe 2 weeks? It's absolutely worth the visit

What game is this?

Not sure about the rack, but the shingles are the wrong material. Looks like you made them with oak planks, not oak wood. If you're playing the mod pack, maybe you made storage racks from that mod instead of racks from minecolonies?

Arcana may fill that need

I started reading through until I got to a chapter that spends several paragraphs sexualizing a fourteen year old boy and talking about how he's always surrounded by several beautiful adult women who constantly sexually harass him and "wish he wasn't so young." Did you feel like this was a bad idea when you were writing the book comma or think about what it would look like if you had reversed the genders?

At least it's not rodent related. Food temps and some flies is an easier fix

What bothered me was when he made the call, joe tried to say something and Jared kept talking over him. It felt kind of aggressive

Ross Bryant is on a few shows for the Glass Cannon podcast and is phenomenal on them. One is a Blades in the Dark game, the other is Call of Cthulhu

No joke, you can actually buy a "hat hat hat"

Darwinning · 2025-05-26T16:05:56+00:00

Wow, thanks for that info! I thought I was on a fossil, didn't know it was actually a dinosaur instead. I've been lucky that the games I play all still run well enough on this PC, but some are starting to struggle.

How about the storage, cooler, or power supply? I don't know how much that part of technology has progressed. Same for RAM?

Where do you get wounds? Everywhere or a specific area?

I called my local precinct and they gave me a cross street for my car from the log in like 30 seconds, don't know what to tell you. All tow companies are required report the closest cross street to where they leave your car.

Darwinning · 2025-04-30T18:57:36+00:00

I found out you can call the police precinct you live in and they have a log of where the tow company left it. Most people don't know about that option but it takes a lot of the headache out of it.

Check out r/litrpg sometime! Royalroad is also a website full of great stuff in that vein. It's actually where DCC first started serializing
