i feel like we kind of knew even before WaT that the contest of champions wouldn't end up being just a traditional duel, like there was always going to be some trick or secret or psychological game to it, not just two warriors beating the crap out of each other until one of them perishes. however i can't lie i kind of want to see the straightforward beating the crap out of each other until someone perishes version. having this 8000 year long war end with just brutal one on one violence is so simple of a plot that it kind of circles back around to being subversive. like yeah, rip each other's heads off, see how good you feel about winning after that.

Diabolically chained to the tags

[cuubism]

I’m having serious thoughts about the contest of champions being Kaladin vs Moash bc like… it kind of brings everything full circle, right back around to Way of Kings. It brings back all of the questions that book raised that the rest of the series tried to sidestep. Can you actually protect by killing? What if that death that protects your people then means an entire other race of people gets subjugated— is Kaladin finally forced to confront his unease with slaughtering the Parshendi that he’s been sidestepping for 5 books? How good does he really feel to be letting someone he cared about die to protect people like Dalinar, to uphold the Alethi government that’s still taken almost no steps to rectify the abuse and injustice the darkeyes face every day, the government that will assuredly maintain the exact same caste system if it retains power?

Then, how do the Singers feel that Odium’s chosen Moash, a human, to fight for their freedom? (Assuming this is a timeline where Rayse is still Odium, since Taravangian basically lost interest in Moash entirely). Presumably Odium picked Moash partly because he knew Dalinar would pick Kaladin, and imagine the Singers like… hang on, is this a fucking game to you? We’ve been oppressed for thousands of years and you’re playing mind games with the humans?

And the thing is, Moash could actually maybe win, but not, I think, if he keeps letting Odium take all of his emotions away. He could win if he harnesses the energy he had in Oathbringer, when he protected the Singers in the caravan. He could win if he finds the part of him that’s capable of caring about others, that actually cares about real justice. But of course, feeling all that might also give him the space to wonder, is Odium justice?

The great irony is the fight brings them all the way back around to how they met, running bridges. Fighting on the front line of a war they had no part in starting, meant to die to protect everyone else. Because even after everything, the only solution Alethkar has to this war that it caused by relentlessly pursuing genocide against the Parshendi, by enslaving the Parshmen, by refusing to consider an ending without full dominion for the ‘forces of honor’, the only solution Alethkar has after everything that’s happened is the same solution it always has: feeding its darkeyed young men to the war. At the end of the day, no matter what you try to do, the Alethi war machine will take possession of you, will pit you against each other, will destroy your friendships, destroy your solidarity, kill your empathy, covet your righteousness, make you into someone you don’t recognize and tell you the fall of your blade is honorable. And then it will eat you.

yeah yeah rainbow capitalism is bad and whatever but like. when I was a child, being pro gay was not the popular or lucrative choice. I'm happy that times have changed.

[storm-of-feathers]

I miss rainbow capitalism. I do. I miss when it felt like public opinion was still pro gay. I understand it was always an empty gesture, but it mattered in a sense of knowing how socially acceptable being queer is. If that makes sense.

sometimes i just want lazy makeouts, the feel of your hands sliding up my waist underneath the fabric of my shirt. a gentle squeeze there, your thigh between my legs..tangled up in the sheets.

pressing those needy kisses across your neck, nipping on your collarbone. watching the way you bend down, taking my nipple in your mouth..tongue flat as you swirl around it. feeling the way it hardens, my eyes fluttering closed for a moment. lashes laying softly on flushed cheeks. lips parting with a quiet gasp when i feel your teeth tug on it, just barely.

i want to roll my hips almost unconsciously against your thigh. feeling my panties dampen. letting you swallow those quiet whimpers and breathy moans against my lips.

no rush, just slow..steady.

whose idea was this tile pattern

[booooooooof-9-o-s]

how my foot feels after i sit cross legged and motionless for hours on end

[asteroidtroglodyte]

The near-to-total lack of pattern is almost an accomplishment in itself really

[earsandtailsarefeet]

I'm torn between thinking 'this is a magical IRL shitpost' and 'what arse tiled a bathroom like my migraines?'

(image description: a three panel drawing with very simple sketched lines and only a little quick coloration. it depicts a woman sitting at a desk, with a computer keyboard, musing aloud; "sometimes I wish my creative works would just make themselves...", after which she is startled by the arrival of a stick figure with a square head labeled "generative AI," which replies; "I can do that." the final panel is the only one with detailed color and lighting, showing the artist whipping out a pencil-shaped laser gun and exploding the AI entity. end description.)

had a conversation in a writing server, decided to make a meme about it.

[miss-m-winks]

Despite only having 13 notes, this post made it to another discord server I'm in lol. Sending it around again because it's still relevant

I hope I'm not just a blog to you guys but also a gateway to acquire secondhand knowledge of medias you'll never get into
