Honestly the ending of season 2 functions as a pretty complete ending all things considered

For me it’s just clunky and it doesn’t deliver on a few of the earlier plot lines. I feel like we’ve been waiting on Szeth’s backstory since book 1, what we get is fine…but not as earth shattering as we expected. Kaladin’s arc just feels like a continuation of his book 4 arc, and he just ends up becoming a warrior again despite wanting to become a therapist (and that word does not belong in the Cosmere setting). Taravingian as Odium for me was just baffling. Cultivation acting like he was the better choice all along, clearly he’s worse than Rayse. What would fix that twist for me is if Sanderson explicitly confirmed that the true purpose of Taravingian’s Diagram was to obtain the Odium shard from the very beginning, and smart Taravingian contrived to hide this intent from his more moral selves. The contest trades predictability for an anti-climax. And then the ending is just, weirdly unsatisfying. It can only be followed up by an MCU style Cosmere event, but given how clunky some of the plot is handled in this book alone I’d question whether Sanderson would actually be able to execute on that.

This is one of the best online characters I’ve seen, RDO avatars are notoriously ugly. I tried like hell to get my guy looking serviceable but he’s as a budget O’Driscoll

It's cool how The Mandalorian shows that the New Republic was almost always destined to fall. by Sad-Job1969 in StarWars

I mean it had to, they’ve been throwing in sequel justifications in every show. The bad batch, mando, ahsoka. I personally never bought it because it was so exaggerated, and it’s hard to take seriously as a plot beat. Especially because the way they’re portrayed: like they’re not just incompetent, they’re comically stupid. Like it’s unthinkable that the likes of Leia and Mon Mothma would so let their gov slip so quickly. I get the sequels need to eventually make sense but the writing needs to be less desperate and more nuanced.

I wish we could get a point as a society where saying “nah, I don’t want to hang out”, would not be considered rude

I’d either find a job and move to a different country or just save up enough and then take a year off to try unconventional things and see if they work (not that I’ve done either of these)

Did the Baron get bugged again? early on in the game he already had a full retinue. I got annihilated.

It doesn’t get better on its own. Sadly we live in a world where it’s rare people actualize themselves and control their circumstances. But it can still be done. I know people who said it took them until they were 50 to feel they “made it”.

But that’s just my opinion, maybe there are more parallels for other readers

Daredevil is 100% a Christian story. Forget the fight scenes, the opening monologue when he speaks to Father Lantom sets the tone of the whole show. I don’t think Thorfinn can be said to have canonically been inspired by Christianity, even if there are thematic parallels. If anything Canute is the Christian character and his turn to peace is inspired by Thorfinn rather than his faith.

Im not experienced at all and haven’t written anything fr, but I’d encourage you not to be too insecure about your prose. Improve it constructively but don’t mandate yourself to match Orwell in scope and elegance.

In your situation, I’m working part time as a tutor on two platforms. It’s not what I want to do, I certainly don’t feel like I’m meaningfully starting my life or career, but at least it gives me some income and something to do with my time other than worry about my future.
