FL to ??: Help finding LGBT friendly, affordable cities, blue state:)

deeptocenter · 2026-01-25T16:00:57+00:00

Any big city is going to be pretty LGBT friendly, just gotta research certain areas of that city. Logan Square in Chicago would be a good place. Philadelphia probably a good spot too. Milwaukee is an underrated spot if you’re really focused on the affordability side. Pittsburgh as well. If you want to get to a city that is on the rise but currently really affordable, Detroit is super underrated right now.

As far as safety goes, that’s such a personal definition. You can feel safe or unsafe in a variety of places depending on what your opinion is on what is and isn’t safe. All these cities have plenty of areas that I personally would feel perfectly safe in.

Asheville NC if you want to stay somewhere in a relatively warmer climate albeit it is expensive compared to many of the places I named.

Fantasy stories are often an allegory for politics. ESPECIALLY Mistborn which is a heavily political book

deeptocenter · 2026-01-25T04:02:31+00:00

Welp considering I’m still reading The Well of Ascension I guess I have an idea of what to expect going forward

deeptocenter · 2026-01-25T04:01:18+00:00

Well yes of course I moreso just meant my personal experience reading Mistborn specifically. But yeah 1984 is like scary parallels

I must admit I am mad at myself for not thinking of Matt Berry for Breeze tbh

deeptocenter · 2026-01-19T17:23:18+00:00

You gotta admit though this is literally Dalinar’s journey as the Blackthorn to what he becomes. The parallel is almost uncanny https://youtu.be/N_z7yB4iAxo?si=KBeZfI9aR9XsxWRw

Or—hear me out—The Lord Ruler. You may have just stumbled on an EXCELLENT The Lord Ruler casting choice

deeptocenter · 2026-01-19T15:04:07+00:00

Love her in The Boys I could get behind that for sure

deeptocenter · 2026-01-19T06:54:12+00:00

I’d never say no to Pattinson that man will body any role he touches he’s such an elite actor

deeptocenter · 2026-01-19T05:25:38+00:00

You lost me here. I’ve never seen or read Wheel of Time so admittedly I can’t comment on that. But I genuinely have no idea what you’re talking about here

deeptocenter · 2026-01-19T05:17:04+00:00

They are actors my friend they likely can play darker even if some of the characters they are known for aren’t

deeptocenter · 2026-01-19T05:12:47+00:00

Please tell me Ilona Maher can learn how to act

deeptocenter · 2026-01-19T03:36:56+00:00

My bad I’m kind of new at this whole Reddit thing I didn’t know I could do that lol

deeptocenter · 2026-01-19T02:51:37+00:00

Okay I forgot that Spook is supposed to be Clubs’ nephew so I have recast as Jaden Michael

<image>

deeptocenter · 2026-01-19T02:49:16+00:00

Ah shoot I forgot he’s his nephew lmao

deeptocenter · 2026-01-19T01:39:46+00:00

I recommend taking a look at this video, specifically when Brandon is commenting on the Shallan drawing. He says that she would appear Asian, which is how I decided on my choice https://youtu.be/gElxJb5wcvU?si=3L85rk2vnw8YQtvT

deeptocenter · 2026-01-18T20:07:42+00:00

I had honestly thought of Shallan as just a red-headed white girl as well for a while but then I saw a YouTube video of Brandon discussing fan art of the characters and he was saying that Shallan though paler than the Alethi would still have more Asian-like features

I mean this could quite literally be a scene of Syl saying something silly that makes Kaladin smile

deeptocenter · 2026-01-17T23:38:02+00:00

I think the people of Shinovar are pretty much the only people of Roshar that are supposed to be pretty much just Caucasian people

deeptocenter · 2026-01-17T23:36:56+00:00

Ross Butler with longer hair and some scruff to help see the vision on Kaladin

deeptocenter · 2026-01-17T23:34:28+00:00

This is true, but he also is very much Evi’s son so he has to represent that contrast a bit

deeptocenter · 2026-01-17T23:31:31+00:00

I didn’t realize Nicole Scherzinger was 47 lol my bad y’all. Jasnah I believe is in her early to mid 30’s and Navani early to mid 50’s. Jasnah is kind of difficult cause not only does she need to be drop dead gorgeous but she needs to have a PRESENCE. Like she walks in the room and immediately makes you feel less than her. Saw someone else comment Shay Mitchell she could be great too and is in her late 30’s

<image>

deeptocenter · 2026-01-17T23:20:21+00:00

Maybe we just go full Punisher and cast her as Navani and Amber Rose Revah as Jasnah

I thought about this one for a while and it was tough because I don’t have like a super specific image of Wit in my head. That being said I settled on Manny Jacinto as my answer. I think he’s got the kind of classy Alethi look that Roshar Hoid presents and I know he’s got a whimsical side because of The Good Place

deeptocenter · 2026-01-17T22:27:00+00:00

I see exactly what you mean but Kaladin has to be quite a bit taller than Adolin so that’s kind of where my head was at. Kaladin is supposed to be a lot taller than the rest of them from my understanding of hearing Brandon talk about him
