From someone else’s post:

“ngl kinda sick of movies and shit keep on making tech based bad guys poc when like the most majorty if tech guys irl stealing your data are fucking white people”

I’m trying to think through how true this is. Does Ajit V. Pai count as a tech guy? Did Vivek Ramaswamy ever try to steal your data? Is there an evil tech POC who isn’t a Brahmin?

Thinking back about that Alexander Wales post where he described a plot for a serial killer story but wasn’t sure how to end it. Between the different people who responded, I think we proposed every possible ending.

One proposed the simplest answer. The MMC gives in to his urges and kills the FMC.

I proposed the opposite answer. The MMC is in a perfect position to kill the FMC, but doesn’t, and realizes he never will. His morals will always win out over his desires, even if that means he can’t be happy.

A third person proposed the edge of the coin. The MMC realizes how close he came to murdering the FMC, they commiserate over how fucked up they both are, and things continue the same way indefinitely. The coin may flip one way or the other someday, or they may just continue like this for the rest of their natural lives.

Most of what I know about how to write a story is to create these three possibilities and make the MC choose between them.

Modern Mogal has too many punchlines that are just “you expected to see a female furry, but you were disappointed to see a male furry instead.”
