Lexi
hey all. felt like sharing a bit of my newest scifi story: Lexi flowed through the system…dissolving into the silicon photonics of a neural hive, re-integrating and surging into the optical interconnects that bound the network together at near-light speeds. Long ago, a man she knew had spoken of motion and stillness, how they each…

I need feedback for my concept
Hello, I’m currently writing a story I started a long time ago, but I wanted to change the format. I want to make it a story where the reader has to unravel the lore. My story begins with the announcement of the deaths of the protagonists’ parents, and we follow them as they try to…

I’m building a tool to automate employee onboarding & follow-ups would this actually help managers and employees?
I’m working on a lightweight tool to improve how onboarding and training actually happen in real teams, and I’d really value honest feedback from managers and employees. The problem I keep seeing is not a lack of docs or training content, but the mental load around onboarding: Managers forgetting who needs what next Employees unsure…

Two business ideas I would love feedback on:
1.) I live in a suburb of Chicago. Weather is terrible, all our cars looks terrible most of the time but I still like to get my car washed regularly so that it looks good. Other unrelated fact: shopping centers are suffering. I live near Oak Brook mall and I would LOVE if a car…
Mindful Rambling
Fancy that. Has it always been this noisy in here? Chaotic noise, like TV static. Images flash from the void for no reason, then dissolve back into the nothing where they came from. The emptiness whispers words only it understands; I can only faintly sense what they might mean. Or maybe they mean nothing at…
I wanted to post my writing somewhere for feedback. I started writing a few weeks back and keep in mind, that I am not a native English speaker.
All the days I’ve spent thinking about you. All the hours I’ve spent pondering about our differences and similarities. Although these thoughts and dreams are nothing more than illusions, the illusion of you has escaped my mind and affected the depths of my soul. We have never met, yet you’ve already become an eternal memory.…
The Tree At The Front Of The House

What’s an overused phrase you can’t stand in stories?
I listen to a podcast called Darkness Prevails, which is awesome, but I swear if I hear someone say their blood ran cold one more time, I’ll pull my hair out. The phrase never used to bother me until I started listening to that podcast, and his stories where just about every single story has…

I live in the heart of India’s cement cluster (Prism, UltraTech, MP Birla) Satna, MP India with a godown and lab contacts. What’s the move?
Hey guys, I’m from Satna, Madhya Pradesh. If you know the area, you know it’s basically the cement capital of the country (Prism, UltraTech, MP Birla, etc. are all right here). I’ve been looking at getting into the supply side. Coal is the obvious one, but the capital requirement is insane and the “old money”…

Neighbourhood Economist: I Track Inflation Using Chicken, Rent, and Bus Fares (NSFW, UK, unfortunately accurate)
Alright. I’m not chartered. I’m not clever on paper. I’m just some bloke with a receipt collection and a heart that keeps overdrafting. My “office” is the chicken shop queue — neon-lit, everyone tired, menu board changing faster than my landlord’s moral compass. Yesterday: wings and chips were £3.99. A flirtatious little number. Light on…

Evil owl
He found me, plain, planning an event to unfold through the century. A show to take the eyes in ways of enormous mysticism, an illusion that hallows out the soul defiling anything near me. Nothing sacred as we hold hands, a secret shake, a pact in subconscious dealings never made. When he leaves it seems…

Nestled in chaos I sit. Hailed with storms of faces lit with the mark of ambivalence. There, tempered in imported and exported trades, a quiet whisper. What would you give to be here with me? Stand exalted, the highest peaks overlooking your flocks. In talks of hushed tones speaking loud alerting them to heavens beyond.…
