I think romance in fiction is really hard to do well because you somehow have to get across the fact that every romance is different, unique, and often doesn’t make too much sense except to the people involved.

A “realistic” romance can be realistic to the author but be filled with very idiotic choices that makes the reader find the romance not realistic at all

Similarly, an “ideal” romance might be written as perfect for the author and certain readers feel it’s the least romantic thing in the world.

This looks like a lose-lose but all I’m trying to say is that regardless of what you pick, to me, the most important aspect is getting across that this relationship is entirely between the two characters and difficult to get across to the reader. That’s why, to me, romances in stories often work when they aren’t the main plot as it lets the reader fill in the gaps of how that romance evolved.

And do you eat that spaghetti out of a bool?

Why would you post this, my phone exploded and took a shit. I didnt know it could do that.

Absolutely wild thing to say. The time it takes for someone to learn a language enough to delete an app, especially an adult is so astronomical that there’s no reason for apps to try and stop you from learning the language.

I mean, looking at trends of any company and the fact that Reddit is about to IPO it’s only a matter of time before they ban the ability for community members to mod subreddits.

Actually, in this case is could be irony. OP lives his life as someone who needs therapy, then when they go to get the therapy the therapist doesn’t show up.

I suppose it would be more like irony if their therapist needed therapy.

I actually ran into something similar recently. To me, the point of accepting the things you cannot change is inevitable. It may hurt in the moment, but so long as you recognize it as something you cannot change it will quickly slip away. It’s in the past already, flowing into the distance on this stream of time.

I think the only issue is figuring out what to recognize as something you cannot change. People run into problems when they refuse to acknowledge something is out of control and chase after it.

To be fair though, if we go by evolutionary standards, all pets then should be free roaming.

And I want people to stop porting meaningless reddit meme subs and instead create their own lemmy-based meme instances.

“thingyOne” is self explanatory, it’s a thingy.
