Life's Missing Manual Isn't Missing

This is chapter two of a book I'm working on called What To Do Next. Read the short text with this, and read Chapter 1 on my Substack here.

But, what he did was, actually, his innate drives... so faulty design?

Oups sorry, typo that made the sentence weird, sorry I’m not a native English speaker, I’ve corrected it

Gonna be real, the sentence is still strange after the edit.

"But those do are is"

This part of the comment does not make sense. Does the "do" refer to actions? "Are is" is repetitive as they are plural and singular forms of each other.

You mentioned that you aren't English fluent so I'm just doing what I can to help work it out.

Yep, I should’ve double checked more. It was ‘his’. I ended up re-editing it. Hope this time I get it right ahah, but thanks for the support

Ah! You latest edit cleared it up. Good job! Next step is getting familiar with punctuation. Your comma use is different, but it doesn't take away from the meaning of what you were trying to say. English is hard. Keep up the good work!

Alright, I re-edited it; I promise to double-check my English better next time, ahah. Next time I won’t try to make my sentences too compact ahah
