J.J. Abrams is a hack. Everything he does starts off seeming really cool then turns to shit from poor writing and I'm not falling for it again. Whenever you see Bad Robot just assume it means Bad Writing 🗑️
(this was inspired by nothing in particular, just came up while discussing show endings with some friends)

[P] I'm sorry to trauma dump, really. How The Orville: New Horizons cavalierly taunted suicide survivors was evil, no one should've supported it. And stupid idiot me, optimist me, friggin' mendicant for a better world me, muggins here, thought that most would be angry at the show. Instead the dessicated husks I call lemmings were attacking suicide survivors. And I'm so tired, chief. Of casual lemming evil.

[P] I'm glad I'm not alone about this. The handling of suicide by The Orville: New Horizons was Evil. The way zombified, lemmingly homunculi reacted to suicide survivors not appreciating it was Evil. It takes such an absence of empathy to not be fucked up by this.

How did the actors not object? What's next for The Orville, support of Russia and the IDF?
What the actual fuck...

[P] And thwt there're shit-eating lemmings downvoting and mobbing on suicidal persons for being hurt by the suicide episode? Well, I was trying to be more magnanimous with lemmings, but it's so easy to hate them and their dopamine disease. You don't pick on suicidal people. No, it doesn't matter if "Ungy-bungy! Me am likey show!" so aod off. Anyome who likes New Horizons is a monster and we can't be friends.

[P] I'm so upset I'm shaking. I kept watching to see if the old The Orville (from the first two seasons) would come back, and because I wanted to see if I was overreacting or the show had really gone from comedic hope to Dark Triad depravity. If this is really the show Seth McFarlane wanted to make, w8th suicide encouragement targeting depressed people IN THE FIRST EPISODE??? I think I hate Seth McFarlane.

[P] If you haven't watched The Orville: New Horizons and you have any capacity for consciousness and empathy? Do me a favour? Don't. Just don't. Being traumatised by Dark Triad BS sucks.

[P] In case anyone doesn't see New Horizons' ASPD?
"I was possessed by a mind-cintrol virus. SO I NEED TO ATTEMPT SUICIDE TO NOT BE HATED!"
"Being tortured by an immortal sociopathic narcissist is cool. WE LOVED IT! A+!"
"Some people got turned into spiders, I'LL TRY TO KILL 'EM ALL 'CUZ MY EX SUCKS!"
"Gordon made a bad decision, SO LET'S KILL HIS KIDS!"I think I mght be a bit traumatised.

[P] What the frig happened to The Orville? I finally got around to checking out New Horizons, and—to put this as gently as I can—it's a pile of steaming cack. It's humourless and joyless; It doesn't care about staying true to the characters; It doesn't respect the material; It went from being hopeful to pseudo-intellectually navel-gazing about suffering; And the plots are all hard ASPD-/narcissism-coded! ...??

Why I hate the “Describe Yourself Like a Male Author Would” Meme

Harry Potter isn't something that I read.
But Harry Potter makes a transphobe richer, and in doing so, tells the world that it's okay to bully trans people.
To hell with Harry Potter.

Latest regency novel is set in the Highlands but only as seen though a USA author who failed to do their basic research.
Two women from the country are in a shop in Inverness. One recommended two tartans because she liked the colours.
The younger one brought a third because she preferred those colours.
No direct mention that she was wearing her clan tartan as a plaid at the time, but the author wrote about her clan and said she always wore her plaid a few times before this. -
I end up trying with the rubbish because I need to read.
The latest not only buttered biscuits at breakfast but referred several times to the waste can in the drawing room.
-
Janeane wasn't exactly clear on what sandalwood was, but he sure smelled like it.
-
Blend "The Hunger Games," "Star Wars," "The Fifth Element," "Meet Dave," "The Suicide Squad," and probably several others, and one gets StarTrek's "Section 31." Only Michelle Yeoh's talent could save this unoriginal mess. #michelleyeoh #startrek #section31 #badwriting

I have joined an FB group in which people post about errors in so-called regency novels.
Even without the author and title I recognise some of the books I've paid for. Most of which had 5 star reviews from Americans who don't know history or think it doesn't matter.
I've suspected for a while that the authors share a list of words, or one editor, that perpetuates the errors. A quick skim down the posts suggests I am correct. -
Latest blunder by an author. Set in about 1920 and the cook made apple cinnamon muffins for breakfast. In rural England.
Why do USA authors think USA food is eaten elsewhere?
I remember being in a supermarket a few years ago when an elderly woman was berating a young assistant who showed her American muffins. "Those are buns", she said. "I want proper muffins."
Yes! Why did UK shops insist we used the name muffin for a cake when muffins are a type of bread? -
Latest USA author thinks that intent and intense mean the same thing. "His eyes grew more intent" followed a couple of sentences later with him looking intensely at her.
Better to use the same word twice than try to vary vocabulary but get it wrong.I am feeling increasingly nervous about publishing my next book as I've had to rely on Beta readers instead of an editor for most of it. But at least my stories set in England use English vocabulary.
-
Oh, god. I wonder what happens if they don't try to simplify it.
-
The latest USA author writes more than once about the commode by the front door on which he places his hat. Then in another house the lady hangs her cloak on the garderobe by her front door.
-
There are some excellent USA authors who do their research. But too many who don't.
7 or 8 days from London to Manchester by carriage, then 3 days by horse from there to Gretna.
You won't be surprised to learn they also put cream in cups of tea. -
Latest regency novel has blueberries available in London over 100 years before the first plants arrived.
Plus several of the common social/society errors and a narrator who pronounces phaeton the American way and whose Scottish accents wander around several areas of the country.
I wish I had done enough research when younger so that I could write a real historical novel.
