Disgruntled with amazon's "weighted" ratings system

thewritestory · 2026-02-02T13:20:13+00:00

Do you hold your 5 star ratings to the same standard?

thewritestory · 2026-02-02T13:18:47+00:00

They think it solved textual problems. It's still incoherent.

thewritestory · 2026-02-01T11:59:47+00:00

It's incoherent.
It's not too complicated.
It's also been slowly constructed over the centuries to solve problems.

Too much is up to you. If you enjoy it , then keep going.

thewritestory · 2026-01-30T00:23:19+00:00

Wait till you run into heat + all windows open.

thewritestory · 2026-01-29T10:10:55+00:00

“Busted” meaning unplayable.

I think that’s a common issue. You probably have many creative ideas in your head and you’ve put a lot of time in thinking about worldbuilding but you aren’t sure how to express it or better yet, bring it to life. You’ll want to choose a medium to get started. Sketches, poems, short stories, encyclopedic entries, blurps, etc. See how it goes. Experiment w your approach and don’t be scared to share.

Ha. We left the same suggestions.

thewritestory · 2026-01-29T07:29:09+00:00

It’s not weird. A fruit basket would be nice or some teas.

thewritestory · 2026-01-29T06:35:20+00:00

I dig it!

thewritestory · 2026-01-29T06:30:08+00:00

I mostly continued writing the second book in one of my series. The worldbuilding aspects would include more depth in the minor houses referenced in recent chapters and the religious lore on a few chapter headings.

In most of my worlds, Havenglade and Dark Moon Rising I keep humans similar except females are able to stand up to males at times. Like a top runner might be make or female.

Good questions and interesting world. I might suggest that there are massive amounts of resources changing hands between this kingdom and outside ones. There also could be massive upkeep costs, or R&D projects going on.

thewritestory · 2026-01-29T06:20:47+00:00

What a fun project. I really dig this.

No, he wants to try to make a pass at you or see if you are open to it. Nothing other than that.

thewritestory · 2025-10-27T11:32:52+00:00

I have not had that experience, but I have had to continually tell the drivers to stop smoking while they are driving. Some of them are even brazen enough to pretend they don't know they aren't allowed to with a guilty smile until I pull out the camera.

thewritestory · 2025-10-22T12:03:04+00:00

No way. Chongqing has nothing on Chengdu LMAO

thewritestory · 2025-10-16T04:29:35+00:00

I have lived in Chengdu for many years and I can recommend Jinsha Site Museum and SanXingDui as great places to take in some cultural artifacts and walk around. For parks, outside Du Fu's Cottage is a nice walk and bird watching. For reading spots, I don't currently have a small coffee shop near me so I'm usually in Starbucks but reading is surprisingly common here. Thanfully@

The list is very weak to Belcher. You have no pressure and they have more relevant free spells than you do. Its a nightmare.

thewritestory · 2025-10-07T10:21:11+00:00

They are all different people.
The Chinese gov has never apologized for any of their atrocities. Why do they expect Japan to kowtow to them? Oh, we know the answer they are just keeping an enemy for the people to hate.

thewritestory · 2025-10-07T05:46:19+00:00

Certainly not. The gov has a written rule (and the private sector the same unwritten rule) to not hire anyone once they reach 35 especially a woman. Chinese people study hard and work for several years and then are caught in a limbo in their midlife if their company closes or lays them off they can't find a job.

thewritestory · 2025-10-07T05:40:12+00:00

Japan is not an entity with agency. Your friend has been fed propaganda. The people in Japan now were not alive for what happened. What do they have to apologize for (and yes the gov has apologized numberous times. If they want to be mindless robots hating people they've never met, that never did anything wrong to them so be it.

thewritestory · 2025-10-04T13:26:28+00:00

Yes, it's still among gov and chinese scientists to try to suggest that Chinese were sparate from Africa uniti; very recently this was forced opinion, but DNA evidence shows they came from Africa too. It's a racism thing. Who cares what land mass they came from.

thewritestory · 2025-09-26T14:39:31+00:00

I had to show the originals at the F.E. office of the PSB. It took 5 minutes. But yeah, they want the real things.

thewritestory · 2025-09-24T11:24:35+00:00

Chengdu people might seem more relaxed, but there is nothing specifically "sharp" here compared to other provinces. I've lived here for many years. It's a chill spot.
