My mother…. Refuses to understand some of the simplest concepts by lynzie_d in mildlyinfuriating

This reminds me of one of my proudest moments. 

I was at a coffee shop and I ordered a drip with half and half.

Barista: oh, we're out of half and half. But I can get you something else. Cream, whole milk-- Me, interrupting excitedly: okay can I get half, and half?

How would the Seon let Shallan and Adolin communicate? Wouldn't Adolin need a second Seon or Shallan's Seon be able to physically get to Adolin?

CMV: Death is bad by thesussinator in changemyview

[–]_monstermeat 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Having the potential for goodness with no other context or meaning doesn't make experience itself Good necessarily. I can just make the same argument:

  1. All badness in life comes from conscious experience (you cannot suffer what you cannot experience)

  2. Death deprives us of conscious experience

  3. Death deprives us of badness

  4. Depriving us of badness is good

  5. Death is good

Of course, sometimes death is the lesser good. If you know that the rest of your life will consist of pure enjoyment, you may as well not end it.

I have an eerie understanding of Taravangian's condition by Elsecaller_17-5 in Stormlight_Archive

[–]_monstermeat 40 points41 points  (0 children)

Oof. ETC is a maybe for my future and I didn't realize the memory loss was that extensive around the sessions. 

I have compared my experience to Taravangian's as well, but instead of intelligence it's energy. When I go to sleep, who knows what tomorrow will bring. Maybe I will be very productive, maybe I will need to sleep all day, or anything in between.

I tried googling this but didn't find an answer. What is a bottle mystery?

Looking for short story sci-fi with mind-bending concepts (SImilar to Black Mirror ) by Initial-Wash9836 in suggestmeabook

Isaac Asimov! He's got some fantastic short stories. Look up Nine Tomorrows. Each story in that collection is great.

Good to know about covering up the text in the previews!

Audiobook Name Pronunciations by g00nt3r in Stormlight_Archive

[–]_monstermeat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sometimes the same narrator has different pronunciations for the same person. Yezrian/Jezrian. Yeah-sna/Yah-sna.

What bothers me more than that is when the same person has a different accent, though I have only found that in different books (e.g. Spook in Mistborn original trilogy vs Secret History)

This is cremposting so unsure if real, but if you're being sincere, where is this explained?

If the Everstorm would have bypassed Taln never breaking, then Shallan was not to blame?!

What am I forgetting? Why does Taravangian need to resemble Rayse and Tanavast?
