#TropeTalk you know if a platform has a nice controllable recomendation algo based on what ppl "like", I θink ðat system could rly be improved by also adding a "hate" or "dislike"? button, which makes ur algo avoid θings ðat ðe ppl ðat like ðat like or hate ðat hate 2, it's rly a shame ðe millennial industrial complex wud never allow us to potentially make ppl(or even worse, politicians) feel bad wiθ a number😔

#art #TropeTalk so I was looking into hungarian music & I've renoticed ðat eastern yuropan foids have a different artstyle ðen ðe west(🇺🇸 included), it is similar, but like, less demonic (idk how else to describe it), except for russia where everyθing is horror θemed for some reason?? did someθing happen ðere???

#TropeTalk It's weird how faeries haven't evolved into a fantasy version of hackers that want to steal your data 🤔

#TropeTalk good vs evil plots are literally christian propaganda & I'm tired of pretending they're somehow not(unless ðey're written by ðe japs, ðen idk)

if you're a fantasy writer, you could technically replace ðe word "mana" wiθ "rizz", as ðat's basicly what mana originally meant in polynesian languages, or possibly "aura points", & make wizards have to cultivate(or "farm" if u will) ðeir aura because ppl seem to like wuxia 🤔

#linguistics #TropeTalk we unironicly need spoken language to google proper encryption so ai & translation software can't always interpret it, as well as "Ralsei isn't furry" 0-information decoy strategies

#TropeTalk small world networks are getting stale, we rly need to start engineering stories wiθ characters ðat aren't just 5 relationships removed from everyone else in a soup of connections,
you could do ðis by first deciding on an abstract connection #graph wiθ an interesting structure(like a rhombicosidodecahedral antiprism w some edges added/removed), & ðen just adding a self-insert ðat's connected to everyone anyway which can decide to broadcast/relay any information you want 𓅱𓅱𓅱 -

#writing #TropeTalk isn't it wacky how everyone forgot how to write properly 4 a few centuries, it was all just

> unending overly-pretentious schizophrenic ramblings ðat comunicate *literally* noθing
> no fun allowed(where are ðe innovative spellings? slang? emoticons at least?)
> page-lengθ descriptions of someθig ðat cud've been an image in ðe corner
> characters speaking in ðe most bizarre ways 4 no reasonyikes

#worldbuilding #TropeTalk polytheism(& astrology) in real life comes from uneducated people misinterpreting poetic descriptions made by early astronomers(ðey need to be memorable when you don't have writing), making up random nonsense just gives you some loreslop wiθ associated powers^tm ðat exists to make your MagicSystem^tm quirkier 🙄

#TropeTalk fantasy writers need to get over their fear of including ferraris in their worlds, like wtf 💅
It's literally called "fantasy" why are you having rigid standards for what you're allowed to imagine smh like, dragons & MAGIC are ok but cars are going too far? are we supposed to believe nobody managed to build one after your 10000 years of medieval(but with literal magic) stasis? -

Good news every1, english myt be evolving polysynthesis‽‽‽
"anthropoapicider" on its own cud be translated(en➡🇺🇸) to "(a/ðe) man who kills bees", a full sentence wiθ a subject, verb, & object!, it myt require a specific context/pragmatic effect, but so do oðer widely accepted polysynθetic languages sooooo 🤔🤔🤔

#gamedev #TropeTalk we NEED more arsenal mages with spells mapped to button combos(yes, like Magicka, or Invoker^tm, but customizable) like come on now, you can even do it in a #roguelike
-
#physics #TropeTalk ðe entire fine-tuning discusion is so retarded plz just stop, your models aren't reality just because ðe maθ seems to make good predictions after you've went θru 1000 worse ones & measured what numbers u need 2 make it work(except we need 20 more hypothetical dimensions coz ðe alternative is SOMEHOW even sillier looking)
tldr epicycles don't prove god smh

Where did the ridiculously large sword trope come from? I'm talking swords so broad they look like ironing boards with pommels. These look unwieldy and preposterous to me, yet most folks seem to view them unironically (pun semi-intended). #swords #TropeTalk #tropes
