musk is going to die in a Tesla explosion in 6 months after sticking his nose where it doesn't belong and we will never get a conclusive answer on whether it was a CIA car bomb or just a normal Tesla malfunction

Oh my gosh. I just found this website that walks you though creating a believable society. It breaks each facet down into individual questions and makes it so simple! It seems really helpful for worldbuilding!

Heads up that this is a very extensive questionnaire and might be daunting to a lot of writers (myself included). That being said, it is also an amazing questionnaire and I will definitely be using it (or at the very least, some of it).

still thinking about how donna tartt executed the concept of having no moral binary in her characters so well. when you first read the secret history your desire is to place henry, francis, and camillia in the right. and that would work, except that henry is so obessed with the aesthetic of perfection and of the intellectual that he has lost his moral compass altogether. francis is so attached to his wealthy, comfortable lifestyle that he'd rather sacrifice his own well-being and desire in order to maintain it. camilla knows the implications of the wrongdoing that she and the others have committed, but she doesn't change her behavior or try to solve the situation, because that would disrupt the order she is trying her hardest to maintain. ultimately, they are all iredeemable, both for their own faults and for their participation in bunny's murder, and that's exactly what makes the novel as thematically nuanced as it is.
