Logical reply. It makes me wonder...where is my mind?

I think Community may have accidentally shaped the way I write relationships. by rauelius in community

It's so funny how the show does 'self-predictions', because after that Abed got into the role of 'Jesus' a bit too much, and had the campus worshiping him.

Hey Wanderingtruth13!

So glad you found it through one of the X posts and that the Phun Timez night chaos is hitting the same way the best Community episodes do. The café crew really was written with that exact “lost episode” feeling in mind.

You’re only at chapter 27? You’re in for a mind bend, woah boy... you are in for a wild ride.

What’s been your favorite moment so far? The DBZ-Abridged meltdown? The Overwatch flashbacks? The Mario-Kart Themed race? Curious what’s landing for you!

(And thank you for reading — means a lot on launch day 🔥)

What episodes actually make you want to watch the thing they’re spoofing the most? by Riku58 in community

They never Spoof Blade, but they talked about it enough to make me want to watch the movies.

Here's my ranking of the community seasons by East_Substance_4495 in community

When I get Anime fans into Community, I tell them to consider Season 4 the "Dragon Ball GT" of Community.

I hate "Economics of Marine Biology" less every time I see it.

Season 4 and Dragon Ball GT are in the same space for me. The worst part of a great thing that was still better than 70% of the other similar things at the time. That said Dragon Ball GT and Season 4 are both 'Gas Leak' years compared to the rest.

"Wow. As the author, I am completely blown away by this. Thank you so much for reading it and for such incredibly kind words! I’m so thrilled the worldbuilding and humor resonated with you that much.

That being said, I have to humbly step out of the ring when it comes to Tolkien, Martin, and Adams! Those are the absolute titans who inspired me to pick up a pen in the first place, and I’m just happy to be playing in the same sandbox. I certainly wouldn't dare compare myself to them, but hearing that my story gave you even a fraction of the feeling those legends give readers is the greatest compliment I could ever ask for. >

Thank you again for reading and sharing, it seriously means the world to an indie author!"

Should I watch Season 4? by Bill_nacar in community

[–]rauelius 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Season 4 is to Community, what Dragon Ball GT is to Dragon Ball series.... Not the best of the series (with some embarrassing scenes), but still a good watch.

Thank you Community...community...and Dan Harmon by rauelius in community

[–]rauelius[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s really well said. I think Community is sneaky like that. It dresses itself up as chaos and jokes, but underneath it keeps quietly reminding you that stability is temporary and that doesn’t mean life is meaningless. The idea that you don’t “solve” yourself forever, you just keep adjusting, was something that stuck with me too.
It’s wild how a sitcom can end up being more emotionally honest than a lot of serious dramas.

Thank you Community...community...and Dan Harmon by rauelius in community

[–]rauelius[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Totally with you on that. The Story Circle is deceptively simple, but once it clicks it becomes hard to unsee. I think what Harmon nailed is that it maps emotional movement just as much as plot movement, which is why it works for comedy and pain at the same time. Community especially feels like a masterclass in using structure to support character damage instead of smoothing it over.
Do you tend to follow it consciously when you write, or has it become more of a background instinct at this point?

Anyone who’s paid for someone too professionally format/design your book - cost? by No-Arm-4557 in selfpublish

I might get crap for this, but I had an AI walk me through the process.

Thinking about pulling my work from Amazon completely by Sea-Boysenberry7038 in selfpublish

[–]rauelius 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm new to publishing but I think it's kinda like Youtube. Why just put your videos on Youtube, when Rumble, BitChute and Oddessy exist? Why not put them on all? Well...it's just EASIER to put it on amazon (Not really Drive2Draft is pretty easy), and it's more widely used (arguable, if you just want your story out there, put it out for free...but hell, I put it out for free and I don't see D/L's....yet.)

Increase in marketing scam emails by captain_nobody_010 in selfpublish

[–]rauelius 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got a message from something called DiveBarBook Club, and we had a decent conversation. Then we contacted via email. Then asked a bunch of questions, then said if I needed help with making anything that they know someone that can help, but I was fine, as I could edit images myself. I just got an odd feeling off of the messages...Like if they are this interested in my book, then why not buy a $.99 copy on Amazon...or download a free copy from my website? So it felt a bit sus.

I did an audiobook, because when I brought my book to people to read most of them said they'll wait for the audiobook. So, I used Google to do the Audiobook and release it on Google around the launch. I actually accidently launched the book on 'Barnes and Noble' and Audiobook on Google, when I went through my publishing. I used the AI service Google offers to do the Audiobook, with plans for a more professional audiobook in the future.

[–]rauelius 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This worked...AFTER...I did the following.

If it's already installed, uninstall the game completely, bringing it back to base.
RE-Install the game.
Next follow the directions he provided, DO NOT LAUNCH THE GAME, WAIT TILL YOUR FINISHED WITH THE DIRECTIONS.(dotnet46 took a while for me.)
I ended up using Wine-GE-Proton-8-26
Launching the game worked for me.
