From a state hearing in Texas

[openscrts3]

Polonius, to his son: a lengthy speech full of wise advice including gems such as "give every man thine ear but few thy voice," "neither a borrower nor a lender be," and of course "to thine own self be true"

Also Polonius, to his daughter: Stop spending so much time with Hamlet you slut!

When you were young didn't you think that you wouldn't be so afraid anymore once you grew up? That you wouldn't feel scared when you became an adult?

I'm 39 years old and more terrified now about everything than I ever was as a child.

There's a spren on my wall made of light (almost looks like fire), looks like it's dancing. Anyone else see it?

PROOF

It's David Tennant

Stormlight Archive movie/ TV show

Part of me hopes they never make The Stormlight Archive series into movies or a TV series because I don't think they could do it justice at all, even if Brandon Sanderson had complete creative control.

But oh my God...

I just had a thought...

DAVID TENNANT as WIT

Tell me that wouldn't be perfect and amazing 🤩

Thoughts on Rhythm of War...

(Semi-spoilers? Trying to keep it clean...)

-I cannot believe I just finished Rhythm of War and I'm about to start on Wind and Truth already.

-I cannot believe Taravangian... and that Cultivation thought that would actually work/help/make things better somehow

-Adolin has grown on me so much

-"WE CHOSE!"

-Chapter 85 about Dabbid had me 😭

-Chapter 104 had me screaming MOASH YOU F@#$ING BASTARD TRAITOR NOOOOOOOO that was awful

-It's funny that Lyft had the flute

-So many good quotes and conversations of course, like the one between Noril, Kaladin and Teft in Chapter 25 about darkness

-Navani "Don't let his lies become your truth"

-Syl's assertion that hair is gross because it oozes out of little holes and you just let it sit there 😂

- I'm still not sure how I feel about Venli

-I really liked how they ended things with Eshonai

- LOVED what happened with Rlain and the spren

Please send thoughts and prayers and luck as I start Wind and Truth 😅

Just saw this for the first time. This is some powerful music; this and his song Sick Boi.

One of those days

Today is one of those days "I took the Tylenol at 2:30 and again at 6:15 I took the ibuprofen at 4:30 so I can take that again at 8:30" I can't tell if it helps but it's all I can do that and laying on the couch with a heating pad trying to read and distract myself feeling horribly guilty about all the house work and other stuff that needs to get done that's not getting done feeling nauseous and exhausted no spoons but knowing I can't sleep or do more than doze off for a few minutes before the pain wakes me up wondering if I should take the stronger pain medicine the doctor gave me but very nervous about it wondering again what the fuck is causing this pain is it kidney endometriosis the birth control doesn't seem to be helping that much I was told it was hydronephrosis caused by UPJ an obstructed ureter but what caused THAT it only started when my daughter was about 6 months old she's 6.5 years now so that's 6 years of sporadic debilitating pain maybe something post pregnancy related I guess

All we know is it's not kidney stones tried a ureteral stent that was a nightmare and didn't help trying the birth control the obgyn will only check for endometriosis by going in through the front but all my pain is in one spot in the back exactly where my right kidney is the kidney doctor won't operate until my kidney function gets worse its only a little bad right now so I'm stuck second guessing and wondering people think maybe it's just a muscle thing but I don't see how that's possible always in the same place on and off sometimes for a few days or sometimes just a day for years now always along with nausea and exhaustion heating pad doesn't really help either maybe IBS flare-up coincides it's hard to tell maybe PMDD often happens the week before my period but not always and sometimes (like now) the week of or the week after or any random time of the month often on Tuesdays I have no idea why stress related maybe I just know when it hits I want someone to cut this fucking kidney out of me and be done I'm so tired

Absolutely!!

just wanted to share the National Down Syndrome Society’s message for this year’s World Down Syndrome Day (21st March) 💛💙

An important story that needs to be shared

"Proponents of “bathroom bills” claim they protect children from predators, but assaulting children in restrooms (or anywhere else) is already illegal. A bathroom law doesn’t physically prevent male abusers already willing to break the law from stepping into women’s spaces. However, these laws can prevent trans women from comfortably and legally using any public bathroom, including restrooms in their workplace."

Oathbringer, again

As eager as I am to read the next book in the Stormlight Archive series, I also find myself wanting to just sit with Oathbringer for a little while.

There was a lot of awesomeness in this one book and I'm still processing it.

[openscrts3]

Oathbringer

I have so much to say about this book I don't even know where to begin.

[openscrts3]

"Each man thought: one of the others is bound to say something soon, some protest, and then I'll murmur agreement, not actually say anything, I'm not as stupid as that, but definitely murmur very firmly, so that the others will be in no doubt that I thoroughly disapprove, because at a time like this it behooves all decent men to nearly stand up and be almost heard ...

But no one said anything. The cowards, each man thought."

Guards! Guards! - Terry Pratchett

The end of Words of Radiance

SPOILER ALERT....

....

....

So when Adolin kills Sadeas at the end of Words of Radiance it is so damn satisfying that I actually laughed out loud and said "YES! FINALLY!" while listening to the audiobook. But then...all I can picture is Adolin nonchalantly chucking Oathbringer out the window, "alley-oop!" dusting off his hands and then whistling as he ambles away down the corridor to find his friends "Heeeey guyz, I waz here in this other corridor all along... nothing to see down that way!"

And I'm just dying 🤣☠️

[openscrts3]

Ahhh, yes. Now I get it.
