This I Believe

look as funny as this story may be I don't think minor landscaping projects are really the core problem in the US right now, this is like when the wind blows over a Chinese general's banner before battle and it symbolises losing the mandate of heaven, but losing the actual battle is still what matters.

But really what could be a better symbol?

should have gone to Four Seasons Landscaping to complete the circle

lol whoops

You could argue that this subtle storytelling is fun. You could argue that maybe they should make explanations for things easier to find. Personally I’m of two minds about it because on one hand digging around for lore is fun and I don’t necessarily like being spoon fed everything. On the other hand though it seems like a majority of players haven’t pieced together this very simple explanation so like maybe they could make the answers to the big questions slightly easier to figure out.

They didn’t just leave that unexplained. Boston was the test market for a new bottle shape and the nuka girl space themed marketing campaign. They thought this through. They thought a lot of things through. You just really need to pay attention to realize it.

Miss, that’s yours.

5 minutes and 3 search-engines later i am crying tears of blood screaming spitting blubbering in despair as my grandma attempts to digitally pat me consolingly on the back. the library of alexandria didn't burn it was "restructured" to "increase shareholder profits"

the google execs erased it. they bleached my bestie AGAIN from history...

in conclusion let us take a moment to sincerely wish Google a very burn in hell🙏

I've discontinued a lot of free, online series because it's not worth putting 3-5 hours a week into posting a project for no readers. Sometimes I finish the series for me but just never post it again, other times I don't finish it at all because it feels more worthwhile to put my time into other things. Sometimes I hear from readers who are sad or upset that I didn't finish something they were liking, but the *reason* it never got finished is because I didn't know anyone liked it. If you like something, tell the creator, tell your friends, make some noise about it. If you would be sad if a story never finished, make that interest known because one of my biggest considerations before discontinuing a series is "will people miss this? Will I be letting people down" and 9/10 times, I come to the conclusion of "no, it doesn't even seem like anyone's reading this" only to learn after I've moved on that apparently someone was.

If you want more content from an artist or author, if you like their stuff, tell them. It will give them creative fuel to keep going. And often it gives them other resources as well. Recommend a work to other people. Leave a comment or a review. It doesn't have to be long, just genuine, a sentence or two. Not many people know that a book's success is judged by book reviews as well as sales. Review the book on Amazon or another site to help it pass the metric of success and be recognized by publishers and retailers.
