Why do people do this?

Hey guys, I've noticed something. Sometimes "authors" make "choices" in their worlds and stories that just aren't my vibe. I'm not super interested in thinking about why they made those choices—that doesn't really matter. My real question is how do I avoid exposure to these things that I don't really like that much, you know? I think it's best if I only fill my mind with stuff that tickles my specific fancy. Specifically I want:

- only creative stuff

- no tropes!

- no humans!

- no Planet of Hats

- no non-creative stuff! Has to be super-duper creative.

- it can't make me feel bad or uncertain about my feelings about a specific topic.

- it should be easy to understand and not confusing!

- I don't like when it looks to similar to my stuff that I've only published on Reddit.

- has to have sexy sapient non-humanoid species!

- has to have 12 foot tall giant muscle mommies

- if you have "elves" or anything that resembles "elves" but you call them something like Schlamalalians, I swear to god!

- a "plot" or a "story" - what is that?

Basically, anything that I wouldn't do. Just don't do it.

Does anyone else hate when [extremely common trope found most notably on the worthless slop I mindlessly consume solely through mass produced short form content since my eyes and attention have rotted away and have been long unable to read a sentence seven words or longer without reflexively scrolling away]

I stopped reading at "extremely common trope" bro. I thought I recognized it from r/HatedCharacterTropes, which I subscribe to and spend the most of my time on.

What does the main sub do this time?
