Any anons have experience with transcription software or speech-to-text writing? I fucked up my hand and can't type at length anymore so I'm looking for alternatives.

This is the kind of shit that gives "conspiracy" theories a bad name. It lumps in actual glowies like Orwell or Service with those that are legit and in so doing discredits the entire idea for people.

>The Tragedy of the muppets
>On December 7th 2005 Kermit the Frog was found dead in his office by Scooter at 10:17 AM, he had a bullet would in the side of head.
>Police ruled the death a Suicide but many conspiracy theories pushed by Link Hogthrob claim that the FBI assassinated him due to his criticism of the Iraq war and his connections to 9/11.
>The muppets held a giant funeral for him on January of 2006.
>In Kermit’s Will he left his producer position to his nephew Robin the Frog, this was controversial because many thought he wasn’t ready or experienced enough.
>eventually only a week after the funeral Rowlf the Dog, Sam the Eagle, Sweetums, and Pepe the Prawn announced to the rest of the muppets in the middle of the studio that they were quitting because they felt that it would be disrespectful to Kermit to continue without him.
>This caused a giant argument because the rest of the muppets believed that continuing was what Kermit would have wanted, it go so heated that Gonzo bludgeoned Pepe the Prawn over the head with a Cinder-block which Killed him instantly, this caused everyone else to run out of the studio, Gonzo was later arrested and sentenced to life in prison.
>In March the first episode of the Muppet Show aired without Kermit and it was met with controversy and bad reviews because Robin made several rookie mistakes.
>In April Link Hogthrob was kicked out of the Muppets for pushing conspiracy theories about Kermit’s death and Rizzo the Rat died of an Overdose, later Dr. Honeydew was arrested for Racketeering.
>On May 12 what became known as the “Muppet Studio Massacre” took place in which Miss Piggy who was jealous that she wasn’t chosen to become the producer walked into the meeting room of the Muppet Studio with a Mossberg 500 and opened fire shooting Robin the Frog, Skooter, Fozzie Bear, Dr. Teeth, and Bean Bunny until she was disarmed by Animal. Fozzie was the only survivor to have been directly shot but he revived permanent damage. Beauregard, Zoot and Lew Zealand were the only muppets in the room other than Animal not to be shot but the latter two were injured.

Why is it that in omegaverse works whenever there is a alpha/beta relationship the beta is almost the exact same as an omega? They are always weak or sickly and always get pregnant at some point. I've only read one where the beta wasn't just a shittier omega and that was it. Beta/omega relationships are even rarer, I've only seen one story with this type. It was decent though.

Thread for talking about webcomics. Share your favs, discuss latest updates.

I recently discovered "basket of guts"
https://basketsofguts.thecomicseries.com/comics/1#content-start
A story about a lich that comes out of his crypt for world domination and find the world evolved and then quickly end on the run from a "modern" state security services.
Really liking it so far. Good mix of genres, starting from a standard fantasy world and instead of freezing it in time add societal and technomagical development. Also I find it pretty funny. Not everything translated yet sadly.

its on leftypol that I discovered Out Of Placers (apparently created by a furry artist, which explain the horniness)
https://www.valsalia.com/
Pretty interesting world building.

Finished since quite a while but at the time followed schlock mercenary. Goofy SF about a mercenary company.

On a more smutty side, I like alfie by incase.

For the non storyline webcomics, existential comics, oglaf and SMBC are my favs.

Ah thanks. I just saw someone say that he was done with comics in an exhentai comment, but I wasn't able to find any dis/confirmation.

>>47355
First time seeing this. Lovely, lovely art and a nice story to boot. Teared up a bit when Alfie and Vera finally reunited, only for Alfie to tear my heart out by being such a bitch. Glad she came around.
Been so long that I can't say why but the comic made me nostalgic for Bone, might try and re-read that

What do you think of it? I read that a long time ago in middle school and didn't like it, but I've been meaning to reread it as a middle aged adult.

i'm currently reading à rebours, objectively speaking i don't think it's a bad book so far but something about it makes me drowsy almost immediately

Currently Reading the Don Flows Home to the Sea, the second in a duology depicting the lives of the Don Cossacks shortly before World War I and into the Russian Civil War. Lots of great comparison between the roughness of the Cossacks and the land itself.

people are really saying "please don't be mean to any of the people in the new harry potter show" as if they don't all know exactly who JK Rowling is at this point

Does this website have anything meaningful to say in terms of media analysis or are their tropes just invented by a couple of redditors that wanted to develope a niche project?

This. Comparing things to "reddit" is fucking retarded. Thinking that people can BE reddit is retarded. There's no competition between reddit and other websites. These fucking faggots supposedly loathe reddit so much and yet they give it such power by always, always, constantly referencing it as an insult to people who don't even use it. People made their choice and they're here. And the second they're not edgy enough or they're too mature that's the insult: "Go back". Go be with those "regular" people with their normal opinions, or whatever the actual crime of reddit even is. There's no way to tell from context. Just anything the accuser doesn't like becomes "reddit".
Did these people get kicked out of there or something? Who pays any attention? I'd never know anything about reddit if it weren't constantly mentioned on imageboards as some sort of bad place for dorks or something.
It's basically free advertising. I don't understand.

I'm like 80% sure I made this post two years ago. I didn't know this thread was even still here. This is a pre-hard-drive-crash thread.

>>42318
I was saying the website can be used that way. and yes tropes and cliches can sometimes overlap.
>>42319
I did not say that writing a good story was purely and simply a matter of subverting tropes, but that the website could be used as a way to avoid cliches and tropes in order to write less formulaic and more surprising works. audiences have a habit of saying "seen this before" when you use too many standard tropes in a cliched or non-original way.

Even though the fandom is pretty dead. I wanted to see what a brony thread on here would look like since I’m a newbie

What does /leftypol/ think about this franchise and the online subculture it spawned? I feel like now that the little girls who made up the target audience are young adults I’ve been seeing more zoomers tell stories about how they were “traumatized” by the adult fandom and it’s becoming more in vogue to decry the whole “brony” phenomenon as “problematic”.

On the other hand though what’s the sociological explanation for millions of grown men becoming obsessed with a little girls cartoon in spite of hegemonic Western gender norms? I’ve read a lot of conflicting theories from academics and culture critics regarding this. Is it autism? Post-Irony? Or is there something about it that just makes it genuinely appealing?

Has any book touched very deeply inside your heart? And perhaps made you cry or think solemnly of your life?

I don't think any book has ever moved me as much as "lonely castle in the mirror". My whole life up to my young adulthood was just a traumatic event conga. I felt very understood when reading that book. Has anything made you feel kinda like that? Vid unrelated.

There is a part in Paradise Lost when Satan arrives on Earth, where he contemplates his fate, and concludes that there cant be no escape from hell because he fundamentaly cant change, redemption under dures of infernal suffering would not last the moment he is free of it, he would return to his old ways and earn himself hell once again.
I remember crying while reading it, recognising my own condition in it.

I recently read Land of Men by St Exupery, I found it deeply poetic and beautiful and it did move things in me (wether when he free a slave, when some desert people see a waterfall for the first time and ask when its gonna stop, when he talk of the desert resistance fighters that get a purpose in life through their enemy, his pal that walked 5 days straight in the mountains to save himself after a crash and almost gave up but refused by thinking of his wife not getting insurance money if he disappeared). The early day of aviation were crazy. I really need to read the little prince now.
I also had a tear reading an assisted suicide scene in black man by richard morgan, but more because the personal stuff its associated with and the fact its obviously a strongly emotional scene.
I had a tear of awe and joy when reading children of time by tchaikovsky and the spider civilization entered in contact with its creator for the first time, reading its response.
if anyone is interested but dont care about spoil I can dig up some quotes
