@hourmutt @sun and I will say on the record I think stuff like Warhammer 40k kicks ass, there's just something about herberts prose that turns me off

@moth_ball @hourmutt @sun @zonk
"I hate white women" has just become culturally acceptable shorthand for "I hate all women" and Quite Frankly it is racist

male adult contemporary authors don't spend two paragraphs describing the breast physics of every female character upon their introduction challenge (IMPOSSIBLE)

@snacks @hourmutt @sun and it took him 6 parts to do that. the women up until stone ocean except for Lisa Lisa are RIDICULOUS, and even then, Lisa Lisa reads to me as "i wish this was my mom

@hourmutt @sun Araki goes out of his way to not write women because he doesn't get them and honestly it does JoJo a lot of favors. I want to see huge men punch each other (or in Dunes case, huge men backstab each other

@hourmutt @sun one of the things with his writing (and lots of SF in general) is the fact you can kinda tell a lot of old school male SF authots have never spoken to a woman that didn't birth them, and there's nothing wrong with that necessarily, but it's very silly

@sun @hourmutt beer. explosions. mad max movies. call of duty

@zonk @hourmutt @sun talk an awful lot of shit for someone who enjoys my cooking so much btw >;)

@hourmutt @sun i think the interesting thing about it being a "guy book" is that Paul's entire arc is "you're a boy, BUT you have special Woman Powers

@sun @anathema @hidden @Merc as someone who has done successful tax fraud many times I respect the industry

@hourmutt @sun no <3

@Merc @anathema @hidden neither would I, programming takes creativity too

@shibao @pwm saipan does >:)

@Merc @anathema @hidden computer brain

@hidden @anathema @Merc "the most important thing about writing is having a unique voice. the second most important thing about writing is sounding exactly like the book that got me this job

@Merc @anathema getting crap written is the first and most important step in getting good crap writen tbf

@sun difference between bad SF novels and literature i suppose

@sun no it doesnt lol

Especially not when the characters are the point

@Merc @anathema in my (albeit limited) experience with "academic creative writing" seems often its an excuse for someone to teach their bad habits as gospel

@Merc @anathema >I love english so I avoid it entirely
