I am BEYOND nervous for Joe 😭😭😭 as excited as I am to hear the album, I hope we as a fandom can remember not to jump to conclusions when we don’t know the whole story, and also that every story has two sides.

I agree with what you said, hard times for both the old and youngs nowadays haha.

Compared to fantasy, people can relate so much more to what is being said in a real world setting. Could that affect the way we perceive how scenes play out? For me, I'm nit-picky at details in a contemporary setting because it's easier to see them (maybe even see myself doing similar things to the characters), but less so with fantasy settings.

I struggle so much trying to write non-cringey dialogues in any settings though, and writer's block hasn't been helping much lately. I'd like to respond that reversely, as a young person I struggle with writing adults' and elder people's dialogues. But I actually just struggle with writing about any character that is different from me haha
