    What's the deal with A Song of Fire and Ice?

    Another point that has to be realized is censorship. American novelists have always historical be cautious to avoid been considered to leftist after the McCarthyism scare and trials. So publishers put some pretty strict guidelines on what could be published. Plus this was 1990s America. A more...

    You wanna talk about it more? Personally I couldn't give a dam about Regional Australia since I live there as well. To me it's just a racist hole that I'm reluctantly living in. But I'm sorry about what's happened to you. How's fun for you then? Do you want to stop?

    How is everyone? Like how are you all doing? Usually I only post when I'm mad or just asking random questions. So you tend to see me at my neutral to worst. I realize that is a problem. And I'm being better now. So I'm wondering how everyone is doing. Like are you guys or girls okay?

    How do you write an empire set in a modern setting?

    Actually watched that. But the thing is the only modern empire we have is America and maybe China to compare to. That's it.

    What a Billion Dollars Would buy You

    I think 100-500 Million is the sweetspot. You're rich enough to live the rest of your life in comfort but you're not really high profile in your area and country and no one is going to go out looking for you.

    What would the COVID Pandemic have looked like if COVID-19 was ten times more deadlier?

    To be fair the past two years have show how stupid people can people. I don't think it could be considered in realistic. So go with the situation

    What a Billion Dollars Would buy You

    Saw this several years ago: https://www.forbes.com/special-report/2013/what-a-billion-dollars-buys-you.html I thought why not just talk about how lifestyles or things would change about you at every level of net worth. The interactive was made in 2013 but it really does give a good break down...

    How do you write an empire set in a modern setting?

    Well the empire here has a population of 1.6 billion and is the biggest nation in the world. Developed as well. The population of the entire planet is 12 billion. And it's a semi presidency democracy. But in reality it's an oligarchy.

    How do you write an empire set in a modern setting?

    I'm sure I'm not breaking any rules about this question but i don't really know how to ask or answer it. It's for a relative dystopia but it's still very much modern day. How do you write an empire in a modern setting set in our technological levels of civilizations i.e. nukes, internet, easy...

    Why is everyone on QQ so cynical?

    I think the best that describes me is being a Knight in Sour Armor. Life sucks and the world is a terrible place. Still worth helping. But it's not hard to feel really cynical about it. For example I tried to ask nearby aboriginal groups multiple times if I could help them with any issues but...

    Same question again because I didn't get an answer: How would you show a Cody that is slowly getting more handsome, muscular and prettier every season?

    What would the COVID Pandemic have looked like if COVID-19 was ten times more deadlier?

    True but Covid is also asymptomatic. You might get it but you might not know it until day 9 or 11 or 14.
