Brandon Sanderson is interesting because in the majority of his body of work (especially his main cosmere universe) he kind of sits down across from you and says,

"Listen, even if an omniscient God or a godlike being is real, most religions are built on only a bit of truth and mostly upon myths designed to keep order among the populace. This order creates, designs, and enforces rigid roles for racism, classism, sexism, and homophobia. It excuses and handwaves, if not outright encourages, colonialism and oppression."

and you're like "Mr. Sanderson, aren't you a card carrying member of the Church of Jesus Christ and the Latter Day Saints?"

and he's like "don't worry about that"

I can’t make any stormlight posts since it’s been officially several months since I read any of them and I don’t remember any of that crap

[akorah]

WHAT DO YOU MEAN THERE'S ONLY ONE STORY UNDER "GAVILAR KHOLIN LIVES"????

Guys, guys, why are we sleeping on Gavilar Lives AUs?

[nerfchance]

I understand why i’ve seen people posting that they are worried about the stormlight archive apple tv adaptation whitewashing what is canonically a 99% asian cast. but also Henry Cavill litterally approached Brandon Sanderson and outright asked to be Kaladin. And Brandon said no, you’re white and old. like the concern is very very real but it seems Brandon has a lot of creative control so hopefully he pulls through.

my true concern is the inevitable, unavoidable fact that NONE of them will look like how they look in my head. They could cast an actor for Dalinar who doesn’t even have big naturals. What then. What’s even the point. God.

Average Assasin's Quest interaction:

Fitz: Here is my dog, Nighteyes.

Nighteyes: *is a wolf*

Stranger: That's definitely a wolf

Fitz: Nuh uh

Burrich shaving all his hair off in mourning for Chivalry is devastating and lovely except that Fitz makes a point to mention he even shaved off his eyebrows, and then I can't take it seriously. sorry Burrich I know you're going through a rough time but could you not have just kept the eyebrows

I don't go here but I feel like "It's a metaphor. Don't force it to do the work of a fact." is a great statement about literature and fan-content in general.

spent MONTHS looking for this stupid tumblr post bcuz i constantly want to reference it and it wouldn't come up no matter what i searched despite it being (what i thought) was a popular well-known tumblr post only to find that the original blog turned off reblogs and deactivated and that it only got 12k notes total. but im posting it anyway to preserve its legacy

the fool is literally the funniest concept as a character. you have a prophet who has to guide our main character, but he's a jester so sometimes he's just messing with him. so our main character has to figure out when he's just being messed with or if he is hearing lifesaving advice. and the fool is also in love with him.

[radioactive-earthshine]

It's always funny to me when people give their blorbos all the same "correct" far left political views which while I understand the urge to make these blorbos as progressive as possible as political commentary, there are some characters that I feel in my bones are 100% centrist, pro-ai, pro-capitalism or absolutely refuse to vote and its supported by the source material. As a narrative tool these features are still great for being political commentary, even if the character never changes.

[radioactive-earthshine]

Seriously, give your blorbos political opinions you don't agree with, or opinions in general you don't agree with when it makes sense.

Pineapple on pizza doesn't count.

Who is pro-capitalism? Who is pro capital punishment? Who is pro gen Ai? Who is against all gun control? Who is unsympathetic to the homeless? Who idolizes the rich? Who is so far into diet culture they think anyone with a bmi of 25 or more is disgusting? Who sex shames? The opportunities are boundless.

[swagspren]

Damn this Brandon guy and his way of integrating world building by making us good buddies with a concept then giving it a name thereby making it easy to learn it by name. I hope you sickos are happy

[little-cute-pink-horrible-being]

While I like the transmasc Lift headcanons, there is something to be said for Lift who isn't comfortable in any body. Yes, her body probably doesn't change to what she wants it to be, because of some Nightwatcher-Cultivation stuff, but also because there isn't really anything for her to change into. Because even Lifelight can't change her back into her mother's little girl.

Third butch from my mini series: Eshonai

He cocked his head and challenged her. “Only a fool would think differently.”

Amber was unruffled. “I think differently.” She gave Lavoy a cold and mirthless smile. “It’s not the first time I’ve been called a fool, and likely not the last…”
