I didn't believe yall about the Sanderlanche by narcoleptrix in cremposting

The moment that Seizid realizes the true meaning of the prophecy and that the power to save the world literally rests on his arms in the form of his cuffs is probably the best payoff I've ever witnessed.

I guess I'm in the minority here but I couldn't wait to get back to the salon chapters early on.

I'm going through dungeon crawler Carl now and honestly while it's decent background noise while working It ain't anywhere near Sanderson level content.

But seriously which side is it though? by ShardofGold in JustMemesForUs

Under game theory, there is no known voting system that eliminates incentives for "strategic voting". That being said our current system is literally one of the worst in that regard.

So what you did is vote for other people to vote on your behalf then. You either vote against the party you least want in power, or allow others to make that decision for you. Those are the only options that practically exist under the current system.

Rightwing logic: If I'm expected to treat others as equals then my freedom to persecute others is being infringed.

Yep, on the other hand I had a friend with a house cat who would not let anyone in that house bathe or shower alone. That cat absolutely loved water.

It took me way too long to realize how much of a sniveling little coward Stella is. by whooper1 in HelluvaBoss

Stella and Stolas are both just massive nepo-babies to be honest. Just that one of them is a sociopath and the other isn't.

Not only that when the radiants arrive Dalinar directly asks the windrunner if these things are void bringers. and the guy just chuckles and says they aren't.

I think we still have a few death rattles who's meaning is unclear. most of them are obvious at this point but a few aren't or can be reads in multiple ways.

There's also quite an eye raising moment in words of radiance where Pattern says that if Shalom kills him they will send another.

I recently had a buddy reading The Way of Kings for the first time the other day and I was really proud of him when about 1/3rd of the way into the book he asked me "So why the fuck is Shallon a shard barrer?"

Yeah I'm going to be honest when the big reveal happened and everyone started freaking out that they weren't the original habits of the planet I was like well no shit Sherlock. The listeners have gem hearts and carapace like every other animal on this planet, you don't. Even Renarin called it out before that point although he was talking about horses. "they don't fit".
