Interesting that they read a Japanese author on misogyny.

Does God Play Dice

"Einstein would turn over in his grave. Not only does God play dice, the dice are loaded."

Those books are 110% reddit slop. But I do enjoy them from time to time

You know how I feel about Liberals, Carl!

Holy fuck this is somehow even worse than I expected, and my expectations were very low. At least that Chinese list has some stuff on it that passes for literature.

That seems astroturfed, most of those are very recent, and I assume still unfinished series so they probably pay for higher scores to rise sales.

But not in a book recommendation engine, otherwise it will recommend slop based on the stuff they forced you to read as a kid or the slop you read when you didn't know better because everyone was reading it.

You shouldn't punt anything you didn't like in there.

As a side note, when I was using a similar site it thought I was japanese or russian, because I like old time scyfi, and apparently the only people reading those obscure works also liked things written in japanese or russian. I don't know how to feel about that.

who rate books on silly internet websites, but still

I succeeded in reading the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, only after listening to a podcast on it, and also putting over 400 hours into Total War: Three Kingdoms.

That said, I could barely tell you any specific thing that happens in it other than an extremely funny sequence early on where a farmer serves his lord (And I think it is either Liu Bea or Cao Cao) his (the farmer's) wife (maybe just her hand, I can't remember) for supper because he does not have any other meat, and the Lord eats it, until he finds out that it is the farmer's wife, in which he then graciously forgives the farmer and thanks him for the meal, which according to the author demonstrates his magnanimous relationship with the common people, and I am like "This sounds like he told the guy to serve him whatever meat he had on pain of death, and then he had to save face from being huge sack of shit."

And this guy is supposed to be one of the good lords.

It's an absolutely insane story though, with so many cool battle sequences.

Journey to the West is fun. Mao's favorite super hero.

What about the Q, X, and Z makes it unreadable?

Thats why you play the dynasty warriors games first to have a mental image for all these characters
