Math is an invention of interpretation, it does not change the fact of 2 + 2 = 4, which is a function of reality only interpreted through math. Same a...
Nothing caused it to exist, it's like asking why 2 + 2 = 4. The Planck scale is the scale at which measurements stop making sense as reality becomes f...
You didn't read what I actually wrote. I'm talking about the idea of a first cause, as in the cause that kickstarted all we see of determinism. And ho...
A first cause isn't necessary within a probabilistic function. Causality, as in deterministic events, follows entropy only on scales above the Planck ...
That's not the point though? A realistic infant is needed to be able to tell a story. I don't understand this argument? It sounds more like you don't ...
CGI isn't cheap. A digital baby that's supposed to be viewed in close ups can cost many millions of dollars to make, without any guarantee of it actua...
Not accurate (and I've been on many film sets). Whenever infants are present there's a deep respect among the team members not to cause any stress and...
What are you talking about? How is any of that right-wing? How is caring for democracy against the right-wing manipulation and power plays of demagogu...
I read a lot of English literature so that helps. Sometimes I actually feel my Swedish is lacking more when writing, but it could be that I feel Engli...
Maybe we should have some guides for the Pastebin site next time? I got the spacing and such right, but couldn't get the italic formatting to translat...
I uploaded the text and did the spacing and formatting in Pastebin, then sent a link to it over to Noble Dust. The only thing I couldn't get to work w...
How do any of the crew know that you, the one who goes into the transporter, actually is the one ending up on the planet surface? Since a copy can be ...
No, talent can only guide, it can never really write. Writing is always hard work and those who put hours into rewrites, into analyzing their text, ma...
Creating anything has a large portion of emotional turmoil around it since it's not like writing out philosophical ideas and opinions that can be defe...
Because the proper protections aren't in place. Maybe the US has never been in a situation like this in which someone who may implement anti-democrati...
But was there such a behavior though? Weren't there enough good hearted people who cared for all people and wanted to help, just to get a shotgun to t...
No, you're writing was decent, I had one remark that I think you should check out further and that was the; "he starts to" "they began to". When writi...
Missed that. You mean that there's a period of commenting and stuff and then at the very end there's a period of voting? Yeah, that sounds like a good...
Another would be to let people put a score into their comment, which would demand some feedback at least from the voters as I think that's the best pa...
Maybe not anonymous, but I rather meant that the score is hidden. I think the clear visible scores drove much of the emotions around it. So, maybe not...
Yeah, congrats to @"hypericin" and @"unenlightened"! Story of THING was my favourite so I'm glad it ended up there. I think my story ended up in eithe...
I don't think it matters, it seems that nothing matters. They won't listen to reason or criticism, they're captured by Trump's narcissistic "embrace" ...
First up a thank you to all who commented on this, I appreciate any feedback I can get and the time you took to engage yourself in it! :fire: :cheer: ...
Because they are just words, they have no meaning to these people. They hear a strongman saying strong things about stuff they have no education about...
Unenlightened on his last comment on that story seem to confirm him on Unbecoming. Beverley I think wrote The Blue Walls. Checked her bio and she ment...
I think "going too far" needs to go further before people wake up. When people start to feel the fascist boot up their ass, they're gonna dust off tha...
The only positive thing that will come out of a Trump presidency, if he goes too far, would be that the sleepy apathetic regular people who doesn't ca...
I recognized a different style of grammar more than a lack of skill in English. A different grammar build is a good indicator of a different language ...
I think THING was the strongest, it stuck with me the most. I also liked I dream of Simon for its narrative style being on point with a child's perspe...
Current guesses... Fugue = Benkei Yuletide Justice = 180 proof A special Christmas = Baden Dawn = Vera Mont Rip out the Grass = Javi The Blue Walls = ...
I think extending the story, play into the absurd contradictionary point of views between the main characters and expand the events that happens in mo...
From what I've seen of your feedback I think it's extremely valuable since you seem to write the thought and emotional process of reading it as a resp...
This story is something in need of decoding, there's a lot to unpack, but I don't think it is without substance. There's a lot going on and I really l...
Sounds more like airport novels marketed to women 45+. A noir pulp detective story that ends up being a sex fantasy rather than a coherent piece. Yeah...
I think the wall of text is hard to plow through, but it looks more like the formatting got lost in sending in the text, because the text and writing ...
It feels like it was a bit rushly written. Text is fine, but a bit unfocused sometimes. But as Noble Dust put it, I felt it was stronger on a second r...
Good stories exist somewhere in the middle of author intention and reader interpretation. Of course there will be those who totally misses an obvious ...
Not sure what to make of this. It reads as if it was a direct translation and there's a lot in the text that suffers from it. That's especially sad be...
People who are critical either through comments or through points are the best source of hints at problems with our writing. I don't know if it's the ...
How can you make a distinct difference between formation and what it is? The formation hints at what it is and how it is for us comes out of how it wa...
Good writing in terms of craft, no problems there. I'm not sure what to make of the story, it almost reads like a mind torture on some future prison c...
I think this one had its strengths in its writing quality and the surreal imagery. It felt a bit like The Dark Tower in its portrayal of this otherwor...
