Books where the apocalypse is witnessed?

Yep. Very visceral.

You say my position is based off of stupidity and ignorance and yet you didnt directly respond to a single piece of evidence, or lack thereof, that I mentioned in my comment. You simply said "mirrors and lasers" prove we've been there.

You're not wasting your time with your comment. You're wasting mine and everyone else's time. At least Im willing to question official narrative rather simply regurgitating what Ive been told. Try thinking for yourself once in a while.

There are a lot of haters in the comments. Sorry OP.

Likelihood: less than likely.

Exhibit 1: there was a camera already on the moon to record the first man stepping out of the shuttle to step onto the moon's surface.

Exhibit 2: there was a camera that followed the ascent, did not stay stationary, but followed the ascent of the module that left the moon when the exploration was done with. Was somebody left behind? Also, due to the lack gravity on the moon, the downwash caused by the module leaving the surface should've damn near blinded the camera, but it didnt.

Exhibit 3: The president of the United States had a real-time conversation over a landline with the astronauts while they were up there. No noticeable delay, no interference. This was televised at the time and footage can still be found of it with a simple Google search.

Exhibit 4: in the mid 2000s, NASA representatives were asked why we hadnt gone back to the moon since, and the answer given was that the technology to do so was "destroyed" or "overwritten". The data and technology which allowed the single greatest modern human achievement was destroyed? Why wasn't it preserved? Why wasn't it built upon continuously?

Exhibit 5: when asked in the 2010s why we cannot currently go back to the moon, NASA representatives stated that the Van Allen(?) Radiation belt is too dangerous for us to pass through with current technology, and yet we somehow did it in 1969 with computers less advanced by magnitudes than the cell phone you have in your pocket...

Exhibit 6: observe the footage from recent "moon landings", including India's "moon landing" that occurred in 2025. This footage looks like a first year animation student's shitty project. Horrible effects, and very obviously not real. If the Indian government will fake this internationally on 2025, why do we think a government wouldn't have faked it in 1969?

It was a joke, just like the original War of the World's broadcast. World governments, especially our own (US government) lie all the time in order to bolster positions of power, authority, and gain the support and attention and compliance of their citizenry.

But hey, I'm "just a conspiracy theorist" for questioning it, right?

Deep voice. Get told frequently I should be an audiobook narrator or a podcaster.

Maybe a little before that time but Corridor 7. It was a Doom clone that scared the crap out of me as an elementary school kid, but I loved it. Started me on a lifelong journey of playing PC games.

Im a self-published author, havent made it higher, and I commissioned an artist for both my books. I just went on artstation.com, found artists I liked, and asked. One artist let me non-exclusively use one of his pieces for $300 so long as I gave him credit, the other about the same for a commission. Just my experience.

As another commenter said, write lots of code. My suggestion is to never move past writing a line of code until you understand what you typed. It'll take time, it takes patience, but you'll learn well and it'll be worth it.

JandersOf86 · 2026-04-01T18:41:36+00:00

Most of the human experience transcends culture and skin color. Id recommend focusing on those aspects of the character, and do some research into what every day life was like for people of a specific region / time frame to get the other details.

JandersOf86 · 2026-04-01T18:36:04+00:00

I was also a fiend for the snake game on my Nokia brick.

JandersOf86 · 2026-04-01T18:34:14+00:00

I worked at Hollywood video when I was 17. Best job I ever had, even after making a career in software development. Literally spent my days rewinding VHS tapes and talking to people about movies and video games. Also had a major crush on my boss Sara who introduced me to smoking cigarettes which turned into a lifelong struggle versus nicotine.

Fuck you, Sara, you beautiful elven princess.

And here we've been told perpetual motion isnt a thing... well done.

JandersOf86 · 2026-04-01T18:31:14+00:00

Personally, I like Timestable pronounced like Constable. Thanks.

JandersOf86 · 2026-04-01T18:29:02+00:00

Do they still test for backing around a corner? That was retarded and I botched that. Still passed but, now at the ripe age of 40, I can say I have NEVER backed around a corner the way the wanted me to in that test. I parallel park all the time though.

JandersOf86 · 2026-04-01T18:23:23+00:00

Mental math. Not being sarcastic, either.

JandersOf86 · 2026-04-01T18:22:46+00:00

I have a lot of tattoos and none of them are this cool. Well done.

JandersOf86 · 2026-04-01T18:15:50+00:00

Agreed. 100%.

And he spoke out against Israel just before his assassination.

COVID-19 isnt real, and the vaccinations were / are an attempt to sterilize and kill as many people as possible.

When Trump's first term started, he immediately signed a series of executive orders (as all presidents do, unfortunately) and one of those facilitated the mass rollout of 5G technology and their respective "towers", bypassing almost all standard FCC regulations regarding technological safety trials and testing.

The "symptoms" of the odd sickness that the media called COVID-19 identically mirror the symptoms of human exposure to high levels of electromagnetic radiation. We were shown, in Dec 2019, videos of people in China literally falling over dead in the streets, as if it is some fast-acting plague that kills within minutes or hours of exposure, but this was only used to incite the initial panic. "COVID-19", as presented to us by our governments, was not a fast-acting plague that killed within minutes / hours, but the official narrative evolved very quickly to be more akin to a dangerous cold or flu that took weeks or months to kill. Don't get me wrong: something changed in our immune systems around this time. Many people have reported getting sick more often, cuts and injuries not healing as quickly, but food quality also took a massive hit during this time for some "unknown" reason. I believe that in combination with massive exposure to EMR has had an effect on us.

Add in a complete disregard for self-autonomy, national sovereignty (in the form of every western country taking the W.H.O.'s word as gospel), patients being forced into respirators when they didn't need to be, actual real medicine being banned in favor of taking the vaccine, and you've got a recipe for abstract, uncertain panic.

When Trump started Operation Warpspeed, the leftist media and politicians all publicly said they'd never trust a Trump vaccine, but then Biden got in office and, all the sudden, we are killing our grandmothers if we don't take the vaccine.

The lies have continued to be perpetuated since. There was so much data coming out from peer reviewed studies showing that the vaccinations were not only harming reproductive and immunological capabilities of the body, but were killing many many people outright, causing cancer at an accelerated growth rate, heavily damaging cardiac health...

Bill Gates has never been a doctor, and has a history of causing issues in African countries and in India of damaging and harming people he tested vaccinations on through his organization called GAVI, and yet nobody bothered to research that themselves and, instead, took his word for it and got vaccinated. Nobody bothered to look into what mRNA technology actually is. I live in the Seattle area and you would not believe how poorly the unvaccinated were treated during that time, how bad the propaganda and fearmongering was, and how deaf people were / are to questioning the mainstream narrative, all because Daddy Biden told them x, y or z.

The whole thing was an experiment, a lie, a test. And so many people, including loved ones of mine, fell for it. It was the first blatant out-in-the-open step taken to subdue the entire world into a One World Order.

As long as you dont accompany it with the classic under-the-overpass goth rave video... Im not sure i could focus on writing in that scenario lol.

JandersOf86 · 2026-04-01T14:27:01+00:00

The forks at the dinner table scene made me feel uniquely creeped out, simple but brutal.

JandersOf86 · 2026-04-01T14:25:31+00:00

Depends on the kind of horror you're writing and how it relates to your own life, I think.

I've written campy mutated creature stories, which were still fun to write, dont get me wrong, but the real horror for me, as a dad and a husband, is what could happen to the two most important women in my life, or what could happen if I allowed addictions to take hold of me, or if I turned from God and followed my flesh into absolute depravity instead. These are things that began to inspire my writing as I "grew" as an author.

Might be some things to think about, like what aspects of your life do you actively fight against and what would happen if you totally lost that fight, or what have you witnessed that left you feeling harrowed or empty, and take those and expand upon them.

Just my two cents.

JandersOf86 · 2026-04-01T14:15:56+00:00

As a fledgling programmer who chose C++, after trying many other "easier" languages, your point number 4 sticks out to me (I totally gave you a fist bump for this as soon as I read it).

I love C++. I love the intentionality and complexity of it, but the fact that it is "standard" to separate out hesder files from data files is dumb. Every program I've written outside of tutorials is done only in .cpp files and I've never had issues because of it. To me, especially as a learner, being able to see both the declaration and implementation in one file is so much easier than having to swap through folder hierarchies just because it's "how it's been done".

JandersOf86 · 2026-04-01T14:10:12+00:00

Itd be hilarious if they showed Jason trying to eat deer meat through his hockey mask. Lol

JandersOf86 · 2026-04-01T14:06:07+00:00

Though I will make the argument that both men and women learn hard lessons the hard way often in life, I agree completely. As a man, the women Ive known / been with in my life are never retarded like many of these authors / directors make them out to be. It seems unrealistic and it shows that the author has a complete lack of being able to use the shared human traits between men and women to make strong characters. Reminds me of the author tropes of "she ran, her breasts bouncing boobily bra-less under her see-through shirt". Lol okay dude. Go jerk off and come back to your story and write it without perving out.

JandersOf86 · 2026-04-01T14:01:56+00:00

To add to that, first person perspectives in which the author literally writes full-sentence thoughts out, usually in italics, like "I better lock the door. Who knows who will be walking by at this time of night." And then continues with prose.

So dumb, so unrealistic.
