Where am I suppose to be able to find books? Amazon a shit, Barnes & Noble a shit, there ain't shit worth of bookstores around me. I have money and I must spend it on reading. My particular itch is for Bavarian history and non-Roman European history.

Gutenberg lately turned to some odd direction: plain catalog disappeared, only search and bullshit "book shelves". Also, very insistent "popular" suggestions everywhere.

Of the really big ones, Archive: https://archive.org/details/texts
Of course, there's some kindle "library" nonsense, but on the upside they uploaded tons of books scanned by Gaggle, so you only need URL to read them without «hurr durr please enable all our spyware to confirm you are an actual sheep».

Because they are millennials of the "I hate reading because TEACHER BAD" variety. That's all it is. You nailed it with your post, and it's because deep down, they know they were dipshits back then. It's why they coined "adulting" and all their self-help books are shit like the subtle art of not giving a fuckity-fuck-fuck or whatever. It's not a race or gender thing. It's a generational thing. Millennials are literally a glorified speed bump culturally. You'll scarcely remember anything they've ever done, let alone written, by 2050. 2100? They'll be off with the Silents completely. Turns out boomers WERE right - millennials really did kill everything.

Something here is contradictory. Are you sure you did not misspell "post-marital spinster cat ladies"? These tend to have excess of free time.

Anon, just say it: they're millennials. When's the last time you saw a non-millennial housewife read the schlock they put out today? Also:
>the only genres that haven't been completely taken over by bored housewives are thrillers
Thrillers were LONG taken over. A buddy of mine works at a thrift store - they get 'em donated in box after box after box and they're ALL written by basic bitch white women with the most bored housewife pandering plots imaginable.
Picrel applies yet again.

The mark of a good character is not depth. It's making them feel lifelike. Not necessarily in the sense that seem like the kind of people you see in real life, but in the sense that they feel like living creatures with their own independent thought process. Great writers can do this with only a few lines. Bad writers, on the other hand, cannot so they compensate by adding layers and layers irrelevant "depth" to make them seem lifelike when they're really not. A mustache twirling villain who ties a damsel to railroad track because he has mommy issues is no better than one who does it just because he's evil. It adds nothing to the character or the overall story in any meaningful way.

Well, quite often it's but trendy filler or pseudo-intellectual shibboleths. See also Aragorn Never Had an Identity Crisis.
But then, much the same can be said about great many other things. No tool makes good writing on its own. It's just that whatever becomes fashionable ends up the most annoying due to repetition. Which is how things stop being fashionable, of course.

This depends entirely on the story you're trying to tell and the character you're trying to portray. Stories are defined by the conflicts they portray, and the conflict of man vs self doesn't make any sense unless your character does have some depth. LOTR would not be improved by adding depth to Sauron, but Crime and Punishment would be a very confusing story if Raskolnikov didn't have layers and conflicting motivations.

how to write things without plot hole? like since things are written from say beginning to end,
how is it so that when you expand it, things dont be wrong, or, cross each others

one thing i figured is that, keeping amounts, like character will have consistent "value" of color or shape, or, points, and keeping this makes it right….but it still dont feel quite right, like itll still, plot hole somehow.
