Jason or Percy ?
( I'm talking about HOO btw)

crimson musk
#

percy.

near ibex
#

Im on the first book of HOO so any reasons why?

crimson musk
# near ibex Im on the first book of HOO so any reasons why?

because percy is percy, (ifykyk), jason has sortofa superiority complex, he isnt very thoughtful, he isquite a depressed character, you RARELY see him happy about anything, he doesn't give much thought to how his presence is affecting other people and how his close friends feel about him, and well, percy jackson is percy jackson
(im not saying id like jason, hes an amazing character, im just saying why i prefer percy)

# marble laurel well in TOA he was really expressive and he spoiler for TOA ; ||sacrificed himse...

okay so, he was expressive in TOA, but what aboutt??? i will agree thta i really liked his passion towards that project he started, and as for ||the sacrificing part, i loved him by that point, i absolutely bawled when he passed, genuinely was pained by that, even tho most readers/critics view that as a desperate measure taken to shoot book interest rates||, as for percy being overrated, i don't think thas true, his character is annoyingly likeable, hes witty, caring, literally too loyal, and gives importance to the small things that matter

#

once again, like i said, i don't dislike jason, hes an amazing character, but in comparative analysis, id go for percy

#

i dont know why but because my friend forced me i tried to read -" i fell in love with hope" and i really couldn't stand it. In every sentence she tried to include a metaphor, and it was just a waste of words. the reader does not need to be spoonfed emotions, and they didn't feel deep or anything. She tried to make every sentence a tumblr quote or instagram quote or something, and i guess it worked because the book went viral.

#

i think she could have cut on the descriptions a little and edited it more ;-;

#

so - should i still finish reading it?

# thick jay i dont know why but because my friend forced me i tried to read -" i fell in lo...

Omg I feel the same way frfr like some of the metaphors were actually good. However she literally overdid it which took away from the meaning.I read the whole book in a time span of 3 months on and off, tbh that's how wierd and perspectiveless the writing was. The plot was pretty okish; I feel like you'll figure out the ending pretty easily if not for the superfluously complex sentences.

#

I would still reccomend to read the entire book but if you feel like it's not worth your time feel free to drop it

Just wanted to share all the resource/material for theory one would require to get started into Cybersecurity. Its in the thread below

#

About 4000 pages of theory.

#

||Disclaimer: this is Mostly for the section regarding networking and networking fundamentals that are related to Hacking and Exploiting. Computer Networking is a separate field of CS entirely but it is very closely related to cyber security. Which is why you have to learn the behind the scenes first before you begin solving issues or exploiting them. This is not ALL the stuff you will need to learn however, the remaining stuff is directly hacking or practicing it or actively preventing it. real cybersecurity you can call it. EDIT: So yes this might not be all it, but its required/necessary for one to get started. There are honestly so many ways you can expand from here. I'll drop a few crumbs for you to follow in one of these paths. Try looking up for CTFs.||

Hi

#

has anyone read the β€œpowerless” series?

left stone
#

Okay so uhh I need some input for this project I'm working on. (It's multi-media but this is the novel part so I think this is the correct channel to ask?)
The main character to this story is kinda like a jack-of-all-trades-master-of-none type, yk?
And there's this scene where they go the city of heroes and they meet all the other heroes and the other heroes are kinda like "So... what's your talent?" and the MC is kinda like "I... Don't have one" and anyway they have to deal with the very human fear that they might just not be good at anything
So uhh I need data on how y'all would deal with that fear because at the end of the story it's revealed that this character is the hero of humanity (Not much of a grand reveal cause that's also the title but yk)
I've always seen this project as like. A collaboration between emotions feelings and stuff and I'm asking a bunch of people the same thing

Ohh

#

thought ud have better input for this since u like to write

polar cape
polar cape
# left stone Okay so uhh I need some input for this project I'm working on. (It's multi-media...

I was gonna write a few examples
But then realized I was just yapping
But its honeslty depends on you character's personality,mental state or/and the backstory.
Are they the type to bury their emotion and slip under. Amask of indifference?
Are they the type to lose their cool easily and snap at eveyone? Even the ones who try to help?
Are they the type to find solutions to their problems even if the solutions could be fatal?
Or are they the type who talk about how they feel with people they trust and create a support system?
Under stressful situations, do they overwork themselves until they crash and burn?
You have to look at their personality. That would help you figure out how they would handle situations.
But in most scenes like, the character almost always ends up depressed and insecure whether it builds up or
It happens immediately.
First they would be in denial until the signs become to hard to ignore. How the character reacts after depends on you.

#

I hope this helps
I am an amateur writer myself so there's not much I can help with
But if you find this helpful and need more advice
Hmu

left stone
#

And so my main approach with this one is to just ask people how they deal with some of the feelings the character goes through and try to encorporate that into my story

left stone
polar cape
#

In my casemy character would go through
Denial and avoidance (huding behind a mask of indifference whil feelings like resentment and jealousy begin to eat at them) They would try to convince themselves they are perfectly fine without powers but as time goes on the facade gets harder and harder to maintain

Realization. The mc no matter how much they try to deny would eventually come to the realization they are more vulnerable than they refused to let themself believe . This realization might become known after a certain event where the mc wpuld be in position where they aren't strong enough to stop or assist in.
Isolation and Depression. After the realization, the mc might try to keep yp the facade but self doubt and anxiety might cause them to spiral down into a depression. Others might try to help them after witnessing them slowly descend but the mc wpuld unknowingly begin to pull away from everyone, hiding behind their shell. During this slwo descent into isolation and depression, emotions like anger and envy become harde rto hide and control. Depending on you the.mc could also tr yto find ways to become stronger whether physically or magically. My character would choose the physical route.
Acceptance. After a certain event or certain conversations with another character, the mc wpuld slowly come to term with being powerless. The would slowly stip seeing it as curse ajd hinderence and begin rebuilding their relationships.
They would stop overworking themselves and put they know skill to good use.
Now depending on the type of storyline, the may be different events that coukd occur to bring the character to this stage. Whether someone gets hurt by them or someone beats the realization out of them.

Anyway this is how I would deal with my characters emotions
From Denial and fake happiness and indifference to depression and uncontrollable rage and envy to finding peace and actual joy or more depression
Depends on the plot

Hello
I need a recommendation for a book that is related to psychology (how to make friends and develop your social skills). Moreover, make sure that It doesn't have a lot of complex words as I am a English second language speaker
Sorry for writing a lot
Enjoy your day

ashen cloak
#

Hmmm.. heres some of my recommendations I guess...
Note: The links take you to the respective Goodreads page
Books Ive read:

  • Psych101, A pretty good book with basics although some words may be a bit difficult
  • Surrounded by Idiots, there are a few other similar titles by the same author and all are about dealing with different types of people, it wasnt a bad book and I kinda enjoyed it (although Ive read an Arabic translation)
  • Atomic Habits, this was a really good read in my opinon - more of a self-help too but Goodreads put this with psychology books

Other books:

  • The 48 Laws of Power, Ive heard this was a pretty good book on social skills - more of a self-help book I would say
  • How to win friends and Influence people, I believe this is what you would be looking for.. and I found this an interesting title (Ive seen it several times in a bookstore)
  • Psychology: A complete introduction, I have books from the same series but I havent read this one; the other books Ive read were intuitively easy to follow (although Im unsure about the complexity of words) with end-of-chapter questions too

Edit: Sorry for messing up the links :P

Guys, I was so confident in my English until I picked up Crime and Punishment (translated by Constance Garnett), and now I’m feeling very humble. Maybe it's just that particular translation, but I keep having to read the same paragraph twice to understand it… or is that just me?

nimble stag
#

ITS AMAZING IM NOT A FANTASY FICTION GUY BUT LEIGH BARDUGO KNOWS HOW TO WRITE WRITE i finished the book and cudnt wait to start the second part and when i got done was still obsesseddd and still amm

fresh mural
#

hahahha isnt a TV show coming out as well?

#

ooh im hyped for the show!! but then i wanna read the books too but i dont have time :(

nimble stag
#

go for audiobooks!

fresh mural
#

dude Leigh gets compared to Sarah J Maas and honestly ew Maas writes trash

nimble stag
#

it is but i think its gonna be long until just the trailer

#

idk the latter person

fresh mural
#

@nimble stag oof i dont like audiobooks ;-;

nimble stag
#

OKAY WHATS UR FAVORITE BOOK IM REALLY LOOKIN FOR SUMM TO READ RN

#

whyyy aish theyre so much better

#

i listen to them in 2x the speed

#

u can finish the book so much faster

#

and it gets more lively in 2x

#

plus plus when sed parts come u can cry and keep listening which making ur emotions even stronger

fresh mural
#

she wrote the series a court of thorns and roses and the throne of glass series and honestly used to stan them but they're horrible tbh

#

audiobooks require active listening and i dont like to do that

#

i prefer pages/e-books cause reading the words is honestly much much better than like listening to them

#

ooh you want book recs? well i've just finished rereading The Color Purple by Alice Walker! @nimble stag honestly one of my fave 2018 reads!

#

you gotta check it out!

nimble stag
#

damn how do u commit to so many series like that

#

yes which is why i only listen to them before bed every night

#

until i feel like sleeping

#

if the book is really really good i end up staying all night

fresh mural
#

fun fact about that book: it was actually banned from libraries lmao

nimble stag
#

oh cool i will check it rn

#

do u have any um idk feel good suggestions?

#

like the perks of being a wallflower

fresh mural
#

same! @nimble stag hahahah and i end up getting eyebags ugh

#

ooh you want some whirlwind romances?

#

honestly not a fan of romance

nimble stag
#

im just getting into book @fresh mural so erm idk much about all these genre i just mean a book like tpobawf like just euphoric and happy vibes all around

#

and the love interest between the two only makes it better

#

but mainly im chasing things like that tunnel scene, where he feels infinite

#

they are just so comforting

fresh mural
#

but like The Sun is Also A Star is an exception. it was beautifully written, and even though i dont believe in 'love at first sight' and 'whirlwind romances' but it has some cute moments

#

omigosh yes!

#

that tunnel moment

nimble stag
#

omg yess ty for reminding me it has been on my list, seeing as the movie is coming out soon too?

#

do u recommend reading before watching or the other way around

fresh mural
#

yes oml im so excited for the movieee

nimble stag
#

yes it was so beautiful ;-;

fresh mural
#

reading fosure

nimble stag
#

same here because movies tend to disappoint

fresh mural
#

read it first cause that's a whole nother experience and usually better than the movie

#

@nimble stag have you read Aristotle and Dante Discover the secrets of the universe?

#

it's by Benjamin Alire Saenz

nimble stag
#

omg is it related to philosophy? i love philosophy

#

i havent im a book virgin ive read a handful books so far

#

i got interested in them just last month

fresh mural
#

there are no 'sad scenes' per se, but there were some heart touching scenes and i may or may not have cried like an idiot

nimble stag
#

and ive been missing out on so much i-

fresh mural
#

it's ok!! i havent had time to read a lot of books too! :( school takes up a lot of my time

#

nope it's not really philosophy. it's about two boys and their love story. what i really loved about the book was that the author didn't make them your 'token gay character'. you know how some authors just add LGBTQ+ characters just to gain 'woke points'? and then end up forgetting to give them a personality? yeah this author doesn't. he gives both of the boys a beautiful personality that is also flawed. so they feel real, you get me?

#

and it's their love story and their journey of discovering their sexuality and then realising their feelings

#

i think that was my fave read of 2018

#

@nimble stag have you read the subtle art of not giving a f*ck?

nimble stag
#

yess i remember reading more happy than not and it was exactly what u mentioned.

#

i wish u a great summer of reading then! after ur exams finish i mean

fresh mural
#

More Happy than Not?

golden vault
#

hmmm

fresh mural

ah ok

well it's about a murder on a train (obviously) and it's this one detective that tries to solve the mystery. problem is, it seems to be a perfect murder. no evidence is left behind.

#

but it's fascinating!

lunar island
