This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

i'd argue that people want to see pieces made out of passion, not out of "necessity" to satisfy anyone else but the author themself.
For me personally anything made without passion screams of mediocrity. So I'd worry about what i want to convey, what i want to see myself, or what would be most fun to create rather than what some abstract people "want", if i were you.
Also, no offence, but i genuinely don't understand why you're posting all of this the way you do, as in, posting it on 4chan, screenshotting, then posting it there. This idea of yours does not really correlate to the usual content of this community, nor lemmy has a particularily large audience. My question being only releavant only if you're the actual author, and all of that is not some kind of yet another million-layered post- meta- hyper- para- irony of course
as log as i don't get banned i seriously do not care
cool, but you haven't answered the question
wait what's the question?
for someone who wants to write a screenplay your reading comprehension is rather lacking :D
Whole last paragraph of my original comment implies a question. Let me be more direct.
The set of actions you've made so far is kinda odd and weirds me out, so i'm curious what are you trying to achieve through such strange means? You could've found the online communities that specialize on writing, express your ideas there, finding more engagement and reasonable ideas and critique. Instead, you're posting it here, of all places, where, well, you'd obviously find approval, but considering that billionaires are basically universally hated at this point, you'd find that much practically anywhere.
For instance, tumblr, for what i know, is the perfect place to share writing ideas, and in general, to find weirdos like yourself (speaking as a fellow weirdo). Bluesky also seems like that kind of place, but it's not quite suited for actual writing due to the per-post symbol limit.
Another question is, if you're passionate about this idea of yours, why share the idea, and not the implementation of said idea? As in, why share a screenshot from 4chan when you can draft your story, and then publish the first chapter, for instance? You won't start to be a writer until you start writing after all.
a side of the effect of the autism is that i always forget who my audience is so i wind up posting tree algorithms in r/trees
could you explain in what way is this tied to autism?
