Funny how wristwatches and shoes are two things with a high concentration of style per unit. I mean one can wear whatever but their wristwatch or shoes are enough to guess the entire style

Every time I get a segfault in C++ I'm thinking how Rust has been winning the favorite language every year...

I wonder why so many authors are such love-story maniacs. I want more personal stories about personal flaws and personal problems and personal traits, why should I be interested in reading about anybody's love? It's often used as an ex-machina that "just happens" to a character

'Seven Pillars of Wisdom' is probably the first book in a long time that has reminded me why I used to enjoy reading. It's so intimate, so weird, so controversial, so cruel, and yet so honest

I really like books that use the mere fact that they exist in text media: just think of 'House of leaves' and how it makes simple text its tool.
Constraints force artistic decisions upon authors, and text as the chosen medium can be used in various ways

There is something about mixing languages in one book. Choosing one for the dialogue and another for the description, because they have different styles and functions, and possibly can suit different languages better

Old movies are so weird. They haven't found the perfect story formula yet, so they let strange moments happen. Sometimes it's too slow, or too ambiguous, or there are huge plot holes nobody cares about

Now when I watch a Tarantino movie I can't unsee Sergio Leone and can't unhear Ennio Morricone everywhere

My eternal dilemma: write a book or a screenplay. It's terribly difficult to create images with words needed for a book, I'm way better with plot instructions needed for a script. But I can simply publish the book when it's finished, whereas the script can be ignored and nobody will see the story

It's infinitely easier for me to 'reverse engineer' characters I create. I come up with interesting dynamics, and then I find an explanation why it's possible. Questions for characters like 'what food they like', 'what hobbies they have' are absolutely unusable for me somehow

I'm SO afraid to write anything, because I get stuck at perfecting every plot line so it makes perfect sense all the time and has a complete arc. Sometimes I'm tempted to stop halfway through and simply start writing and see how it goes

If there was an open source messaging app as great as Telegram I would immediately switch to it in a heartbeat.
Unfortunately, open source apps often lack features that we all know and love in closed proprietary ones, so switching feels more like sacrificing convenience for a feeling of privacy

I wonder what people call some unnamed genres of stories.
I've heard 'competence porn' for stories like 'The Bear', 'Generation Kill', etc, where characters do their job exceptionally well under stress even if they don't enjoy it or have personal problems, but it's barely googleable.

I wish I knew a list of weird websites and apps. Just to open it, and there is something weird. Like a news website about a city that doesn't exist. I want to embrace the weirdness

You know how stories have a protagonist who is a normal ordinary person, and they meet weird characters? We as readers should feel relatable since we are as regular as the protagonist. But you know what? I want every character in my story to be weird and flawed as hell

I realized it's way easier to create a story outline if the setup already has a conflicting dynamic between characters. If characters are fine with each other, they won't move their dynamic and plot anywhere; if they want different things during a scene, it's much easier to come up with what happens

When I want to find a great story to experience, I rarely search for story-driven games. I usually search for books with interesting description and good reviews.
I guess that's another reason to try writing a book instead of making a game, if my main motivation is telling a story 🗿
