Anyway thats it from me for now because it’s almost 12 where I am rn and I have to get up early tomorrow

Alrighty, have a good night. I hope I was able to help you out.

Same

And you did

Thanks.

What things should I include in a article ab national debt

About five years ago I would have been all over this, now my knowledge has grown a little fuzzy on the topic. I would as Redbird October, when he's on.

im awake again

I am asleep again.

hmm

I’m sort of experimenting with this idea for the setting which is basically, a lot of people sealed themselves off in These bunkers across the planet, which were interconnected at somepoint

However, due to the planet’s fall, many of them were cut off and were pretty much forgotten

As for the people inside them, most either would starve to death, turn into stark raving lunatic cannibals, or just plain diseased zombie things

is it a kind of "futuristic WWI steampunk" style that you're aiming for?

sort of

it doesnt take place on earth though

hmm, how much do you care about realism? or the illusion of realism?

enough that its doable and looks the part, but not enough to ruin the whole post apocalyptic future thing

there is an event in Stellaris where a civilization retreated underground from a nuclear winter and all died off when food ran out but uploaded their consciousness into a super computer. could be an idea for how to do it

lots of cool ways to go from there but may have to make a few drastic jumps of logic to do it

the idea i mentioned above was mostly part of the world building thing actually

ahh so more of a backround idea or backstory than any actual plot point

yeah its a detail that's supposed to "drive conflict" for lack of a better term

could be a "lurking threat" to use later on, sci fi isnt usually my thing but was always disappointed the game never took the idea anywhere beyond the introduction

thats probably what I'll use it for

Hi! I'm new here. Um, what's this channel for, specifically?

Basically you come here talk about what your writing or something like that

Oh, cool! Thank you!

So what are you writing?

@ASongofJoy some people post work here too, typically as a PDF which then gets pinned to the channel usually by IsobototheHobo

Interesting. What kind of fiction do people here write?

Idk. I’m not much of reader outside of chat text, required reading for work, news, and very occasionally a couple chapters of a book. Rare, books.

Ah. Got it. Thank you!

There's poetry, there's fantasy, there's regular fictional stories as far as what's pinned

there's some fan fics of the SFW variety

How about works that have been published?

Yep. I've posted one or two.

Cool!

@ASongofJoy Hello, welcome to the server. I usually hang out in here or in <#801170149855723540> . If you write anything, post it here, I'll be happy to give it a read.

Alright, so Six Five.

I had an idea based on something that actually happened to someone close to me.
