Ahhh, Yes. Now I Get It.

Just saw this for the first time. This is some powerful music; this and his song Sick Boi.

RUSH quotes

"Where would you rather be?

Anywhere... anywhere but here

When will the time be right?

Anytime but now

Where would you rather be?

The doubt and the fear I know would all disappear

Anywhere but here

Anywhere but here"

Please reblog if YES so your followers will know!

Kaladin and Dalinar

"Will I never stop hearing about Dalinar storming Kholin? Kaladin thought."

I freakin' KNOW this is foreshadowing 👀

🥺

Santa requiring payment for presents seems to have been a pretty common explanation parents used to explain why Santa might not be able to bring everything children wanted.

Fortunately Babe had a solution.

Audible Narrators

I absolutely adore Michael Kramer and Kate Reading. They are phenomenal audiobook narrators who did amazing work with Robert Jordan's Wheel of Time series and with Brandon Sanderson's Cosmere. They are definitely my favorite Audible narrators. But...

I do think maybe Edgedancer could have been narrated by Suzy Jackson, who did the Skyward series. She would have been perfect for Lift. I guess I understand it's more consistent to use Kate Reading since she does Lift in the main books, and she does a wonderful job, but I just think Suzy Jackson would have been cool in that role.

Graffiti

There used to be graffiti in the town where I live, many years ago, that said "All hail the Crimson King" written in red spray paint on a sign. I often think about it. It's worn away, not really visible anymore but still kind of there. This was long before the movie came out, back when I thought I was the only teenager in the world who read The Dark Tower series, and then became a young adult who still thought I was alone in liking and rereading that series over and over. Did the person who wrote the graffiti read those books? Or was it in reference to something else? Why can't I stop thinking about it?

An important story that needs to be shared

I Was In The Women's Restroom When A Man Came In And Called Out A Question That Left Me Nauseated

"I stopped breathing and my heart skipped. My pants were down around my ankles, and no one else was within earshot."

"Proponents of “bathroom bills” claim they protect children from predators, but assaulting children in restrooms (or anywhere else) is already illegal. A bathroom law doesn’t physically prevent male abusers already willing to break the law from stepping into women’s spaces. However, these laws can prevent trans women from comfortably and legally using any public bathroom, including restrooms in their workplace."

Sarene: Well, my husband's apparently dead, so I have nothing to do. Time to troll people in power.  Ashe: Please don't troll the King, my lady.  Sarene: Of course not.  Ashe: Oh thank goodness Sarene: That would be too easy. Now, that religious crusader with the armor, psychopathic sidekick, and massive army of priests… he might be fun to play with Ashe: Oh sweet merciful Domi why *meanwhile in zombieland* Raoden: I am going to cure everyone's depression using shoes and history books Galladon: Pretty sure that hasn't ever worked Raoden: Of course it hasn't worked, it hasn't been done by ME yet. 

I love Elantris so much. The rest of the Cosmere gives us complex backstories and traumas seasoned with snark and philosophy and epic magic systems. Elantris is just two separated soulmates who decided to punch fate in the face because they felt like it. Simple, but delicious.
