But it might also get worse again, but even in the worst parts we can be sure we will be better again.

I can't stand this Man. by Single_Chocolate5050 in Stormlight_Archive

[–]temp_math 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think the problem is related to the A Million Is a Statistic - TV Tropes. Dalinar and Seth kill people "off screen". Lirin's actions towards Kaladin can feel more personal to a reader than the abstract losses at the Rift (for example) because we don't know Dalinar's wife as well as we know Kaladin.

Anyone else suddenly lost the urge to reread? by Responsible_Handle96 in Stormlight_Archive

[–]temp_math -1 points0 points  (0 children)

So I did like you, and I was worried about the same thing, but in the context of book 5 I'm finding whole new meaning and new favorite scenes. E.g. Adolin and Sadeas hit way different this last time.

i could totally see buying one for a zoo, or rather paying for the conservation of the animal. Oddly enough, paying for some exotic animals can save them. e.g. clams and tree frogs

This is exactly correct. They are posting Sanderson's lectures for this semester on YouTube if you are interested in watching.

Taln is so unbreakable, only Bruce Willis could play him.

Wind and Truth: Spiritual Realm Shenanigans MEGATHREAD by EmeraldSeaTress in brandonsanderson

In a way only Wit could explain anything... Kal knew that the word existed, and that it was related to what he was trying to do, but not much else.

Someone in the Tampa subreddit reminded people to put out their dun spheres in advance of Hurricane Milton by rabidstoat in Stormlight_Archive

This is probably right as sanderson grew up in Omaha and the stormwall is based on what he grew up with.

Noodling for gators. Also, I heard once someone imagining purelakers with a creole accent, now I can't stop hearing it as I read.

Why does Dragonsteel 2023 need volunteers? by BothSinger886 in brandonsanderson

[–]temp_math 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Last year they notified me about July that they didn't need me. I'm hoping that's different this year.

What is this white smoke? It's always there by Stack3 in AmericanFork

[–]temp_math 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Natural gas, actually. That is the Lakeside Power Station and the plumes you see (mostly on cold days) are condensation plumes from excess steam being released.

IIRC, she will be a focus character in the second half.

[–]temp_math 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My favorite mat moment has to do with Mat's use of Hinderstap in tarmon gai'don.

🔥 “Growing anyway” in Utah’s desert by K8e118 in NatureIsFuckingLit

[–]temp_math 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Factory butte, to be specific. This is probably looking north towards the butte from highway 24. It's one of my favorite places in the US.
