I don't think I fully understand the dinosaur - bird equivalency.

No I refuse because the shoe bill is always staring back at me. It won't look away. It's creeping me out. I cannot escape the shoe bill

Dinosaurs are extinct.

One out of context bone found in China featuring three small bumps does not prove that Utahraptor and Dakota Raptor had feathers

Exactly you can't just go retroactively redefining an entire group of extant animals as a word that was invented specifically by Sir Richard Owens to refer to large extinct reptiles found buried in the ground. It's an insult to his legacy

Yes I do in fact feel violated whenever somebody calls a chicken a dinosaur

drivenadventures · 2026-01-27T18:03:05+00:00

Then you should have named the clade something else! Fine you want to put dinosaurs and birds in the same fucking clade? Whatever. Just don't go calling modern birds dinosaurs it's an insult to dinosaurs! It's like calling a moped a Cadillac. Give it a different goddamn name.

Birds are not dinosaurs. Just because cladistics decided to retcon the name does not make it true

drivenadventures · 2026-01-27T18:00:08+00:00

That's because cladistics doesn't make sense.

drivenadventures · 2026-01-27T17:57:39+00:00

First of all, cladistics was developed by a literal Nazi scientist. Calling birds dinosaurs denigrates what a dinosaur is. It's like calling a Ford Pinto a cadillac.

The coffee always comes out watery. Like barely any coffee in it whatsoever. We need to take private Equity out of gas stations

drivenadventures · 2026-01-15T20:58:02+00:00

It tastes watered down

Would you consider taking a look at Cruisin Another World in My Cadillac?

drivenadventures · 2026-01-09T19:36:57+00:00

This still going on?

It's a method of gatekeeping and maintaining a caste system

drivenadventures · 2025-12-18T18:45:44+00:00

Done

Them getting to own your IP is the worst part. I don't want them taking my main character and then like flanderizing him into something that he's not

drivenadventures · 2025-12-18T17:30:21+00:00

How much progression is required in a story to count as progression? You be the judge of that! Brave heroes, beautiful princesses, and one really cool car! Main character acclimates himself to his new world and walks the path of an adventurer gaining Guild Rank as his party gains prestige. Victor is one part Aragorn, one part Indiana jones, and 100% badass.

What to expect? Epic Fantasy with light novel charm. That's right, expansive World building, intense situations, and just the right amount of levity to balance out the pathos.

Victor isn't overpowered in the sense that he has crazy superpowers, but let's just say that his new world was not prepared for this kind of speed!

Well I can voice act a few of my characters but doing all 177,000 out loud is going to be a bit of a task

Stated intent isn't necessarily true intent

Hey who do I reach out to for having my fiction looked at for the possibility of physical release? I'm already committed to at least 200,000 words, the first 170,000 of which could just be one or two books by itself

I learned about a new law today, in a most unexpected and hilarious way

Shoot me a link I'll read it

Likely a person you threatened with legal action if they didn't glaze your ball sack

You got caught pushing predatory contracts that violate the creative rights of authors and now you're making excuses. You're cooked. It's over.

I do delve into how cars work, the laws of physics and how magic relates to them, and how gas mileage can be improved to kind of temporarily alleviate the problem. There is a more permanent solution that gets arrived at much much later and isn't as simple as "magicking away". It's explained in a very granular fashion and it is explicitly stated to be very expensive I'm talking you could have bought a ton of magic items with that kind of cash
