I've tried I'm sorryyy I can't get through themm

No disrespect. Let's address some things tho pls

Combining stories from different places and times, like let's put together the Theogony and the Iliad and the Odyssey, and see what that says about the gods.................Not for me.

Also showing me Renaissance paintings while talking about said gods made me want to chew glass. But that's neither here nor there. Sure, put salami on a slice of bread and call it souvlaki, I can't stop you. (I call 'gyro' souvlaki cause I'm from the south don't @me)

The Odyssey and the Iliad were epics meant to entertain masses while keeping the memory of a tragic war alive. The Theogony is an Athenian anthology with stories of multiple dieties, written during the reign of DRAKON. The guy where the word draconian comes from! Do ppl really think that's a good source for unbiased takes????? Drakon???????????

All the gods were worshipped differently in each region. Hera wasn't worshipped the same way in Thrace and Crete and Kairo and Pontus.

It makes for a very complicated story but history do be like that.

Trying to create a "character" out of all the myths and stories and songs is completely ignoring what those gods really were: the embodiment of the different faces of nature. Nature, doesn't look the same at Meteora vs my island vs Samos etc. Demeter wouldn't act or feel the same across the regions. Idk what a tree looks like to this day.

And also what about historical context!!

Like to me the most interesting thing is historical context!!!! Aaaaa!! I've legit heard ppl discuss the Cyclopes as a creature and I'm sitting there losing my damn mind. I'll be revealing too much if I said wow, these ppl lived on the islands. They had a thing with eyes. They didn't like strangers stealing their livestock. I wonder if there's a connection here somewhere. Between myth and tradition. It's a mystery....

....BRUH....... I tried to point out that his stories are... incomplete::: The women he writes are either prostitutes, dead or soon to be dead. People of color? Where? Mentioning anything LGBTQA+ wouldn't even be funny at this point.

He doesn't know how to write them and he doesn't care to learn. That's KINDA misogynistic, racist etc. Which is mental illness but not an excuse really??? And I'm not hating on him btw.

The fact that good people, that I work with, don't get that...

Pointing out why a story doesn't work isn't hate speech. It's critique.

I'm not saying he SUCKS AND HE SHOULD DIE OR SHUT UP. I'm still respecting that he's just a dude. But I am saying I get tired of his stories cause they're as bland as boiled potatoes. And I'm tired of pretending they're not. Him putting pepper (violence) on them isn't a DARK SPIN, it's still as basic as serving them raw.

it just makes me real depressed...

Pls criticize me.. I guess..

That's all I can really learn from this mess?? Don't let me become Frank Miller?? Please?? I'm human I make mistakes but I don't want that to be an excuse to be lazy.

I don't give a whole turd about clout, if I get one Like that still means One person liked my work. I appreciate it, cause I enjoy doing this. But if people have constructive criticism, I really want to hear that too. Racist fanboys haven't been all that helpful yet, I have tbh.

Feedback is literally what I paid my college for. Getting it on the internet? That means somebody cared enough to do that for free.

Instead of being at all productive with writing I've been avoiding waking hours by sleeping (which tbh I'm sure is great for the dental healing).

Anyway all that to say that I wish to continue making Lith a mess, and I am quite irritated that the creativity is at a standstill.

😎 alrighty

This is a rp lets play called Ellie’s tale, one of my top faves and still ongoing. Production looks so good in “season 2” https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLboAmqVLxwuHYkmDt7s8aZKbPFOOgF3or&si=eTjQXXLRJ6_Neptq

This is another EXTREMELY immersive and movielike rp by Rycon Roleplays I haven’t finished it yet but omg it’s so good. https://youtu.be/oWwqmGbUaQk?si=nHTcdRdGfbe2sL_K

And as for my character her name is Arwyn, prewar lawyer and housewife thrust out 200 years later forced to adapt and become strong to find her missing son (as the game says) she’s not a veteran like her late husband so she is having a harder time than he would but she is still pushing. Nothing like a mothers love trope y’know

This was her at the start, still wearing thin framed glasses, and long inconvenient hair that gets in the way. She has jeans and boots over her vault suit, and a undershirt underneath I think it looks rlly cool and immersive because those suits by themselves look so uncomfy 😆

And this is how she’s looking right now mid story. She’s got thicker glasses with darker tint to protect from the sun, her hair has been shaved on either side and pulled back (it’s still long tho she hasn’t been able to let go of it quite yet) she’s found some improvised earrings to keep some sort of old time normalcy about her in the desolate wasteland. She’s also got some binoculars around her neck to spot things off in the distance easier (like enemies lol) she put her wedding right In a lock box at the ruins of her old house as a tribute to her husband (also so she doesn’t lose it, raiding thieves are no joke) after she defeated her husbands killer. Now she’s regathering her strength before she heads into even more perilous territory for info on how to find her son.

tnm is runner up if bfptm10 doesn’t count

I know I look young and I'm short but that's not grounds to disrespect me based on assumptions. And in the same vein, the old witches I got in an accident with probably wouldn't have screamed at me like they did if I looked older. After all, society says it's okay for middle-aged and older people to demean and humiliate teenagers. But I'm 21, almost 22, and their attitude has made me catatonically afraid to drive ever again. It's been a week and I still can't get in my car without crying.

When I was in high school, I was often mistaken for someone in their early to mid twenties. Now that I'm working at my high school, I'm mistaken for a teenager. Not really sure how that even works. And I was so confident and mature in HS that I was practically a small adult, but now I find it increasingly difficult to be an actual adult because of my appearance.
