Maybe I should've just made a fantasy story
Hello, I'm back to vent my frustration of my 'set in the future' world building project that I totally put myself into and could easily just not do it, but I refuse. (Sunk-cost fallacy baby!)
yeah it's not exactly fun researching the issues of the real world and also trying to find long term solutions (that was the original pitch, after a while it moved to a general future Earth project). No wonder Fantasy is such a popular genre, you legit can just hand-wave away a lot of things without worry cause it's your world!
However since my last post about this topic, I've decided to go a more batshit insane TNO route, so maybe I could just make the world so different that people would be more confused than offended I guess.
Though on the plus side, doing research did teach me more about the different peoples and identities of the world, like the Zazas and Ambazonia... so that's nice!
(Also I recommend to avoid social media like Instagram when researching because since their algorithmic, they love to shove as much political engagement bait down your throat, trying their best to get as much reactions out of you like a doctor squeezing out my kidney stones)
