Thank you 17th shard podcast for putting me on, I will never be able to call Kaladin anything other than John Stormlight for the rest of my life.

Everyone put in your votes for who you think would be John Cosmere

My car just broke down in the middle of nowhere & now I know exactly how Shallan felt when her damn boat crashed.

Please help me before I start talking to sticks

Mistborn era 1 spoiler ig

Sazed is a better man than me because as soon as I ascended I swear I would’ve been naming anything & everything after tindwyl & I know that boy is a yearner so it must’ve taken restraint not to.

I have to admit is was NOT expecting the relationship between Steris & wax to just be so cute. Like they’re so cute together & she’s so goofy about it I love it

Halfway through words of radiance.

The line is still hard asf

You know the one.

Everytime I reread the Stormlight archive I come back with more information about the cosmere & it just elevates the experience so much, Stormlight is the only book that just gets better exponentially every reread like wow thank you Brandon Sanderson idk what demon you sold your soul to but it’s working twin.

Vin & Elend ballroom dance scene in hero of ages is my new favorite scene in the entire cosmere. Sorry super important amazingly written Vivienna scenes in warbreaker you’ve been dethroned.

[eggplantlive]

I love how during the entirety of The Well of Ascension Elend is just… too busy to be apart of any plot except his own. Like it’s actually really funny how disgustingly oblivious he is to all of the happenings going on around him. Like hey turns out you have like at LEAST 12 magic half siblings that you don’t know about, & one of them just tried to fuck your girlfriend, but it’s okay because she just straight up kills him. & after that when Vin comes home she neglects to tell Elend about this fact in favor of informing him she wants to get married like right now & then nearly bleeds out on his nice marble floor.

Bros just on his grind

Brandon Sanderson writes misogynist trash.

[racoondestroyerofrealms]

Justify your answer (now, in all seriousness, what makes you think that way?)

[transcendingirl]

The women Brandon Sanderson writes are very sexist and bad.

Steris is treated as the caretaker and child of Wax. Wayne's harrassment of women is treated as quirky. Vin kills herself because her husband died. All of Sunlit Man.

There are more examples that are more nuanced and that, in isolation, could be defended, but that I do read as misogynist because I have read a large amount of his bibliography and cannot read these in isolation (e.g. Shallan).

[eggplantlive]

Seriously though, boiling down the ending of hero of ages to “vin kills herself because her husband dies” (first of all… no? Like I don’t know how you’re coming to that conclusion I don’t think we read the same book) is so brain dead it’s actually kind of causing me physical pain. Like calling that misogynist is such an insane reach you would have to apply that to every straight relationship in media at that point. It’s not misogynist to write a straight relationship bro. & secondly what about the sunlit man comes out as misogynistic to you exactly?

Am I getting rage baited right now?

[eggplantlive]

I love characters becoming super awesome during a time skip.

Elend was already super awesome before the time skip but reading him prance into a city like he owns the place & then proceeding to own the place is so cool

Go white boy go

Favorite one since Adolin
