Very upsetting that Rust doesn't let you make a fixpoint combinator. Like I understand why, but it still sucks 😔

FINAL RUSTPOSTING FOR THE YEAR

[jordoperson]

played the update, time to rustpost

[llynwen]

Hiii love ur rustposting one thing that has recently made me crazy are how in the interrogation scenes there are these moments where rust drops some comment toward each person where the subtext is like, are I can read this off you because I’m the same/felt the same as you/done the same as you and how often it reveals this little devastating nugget of information about him……like the first b&e kid where he says “you were drug down by that same weight that wouldn’t let you have a mom” (oh. oh.) to the pharmacy shooter “how you gonna say a guy that’s on nothing is crazy but a guy that took something that made him crazy isn’t” (OH.) to the Charmaine character, “some people mistake a child for an answer to something, a way to change their own story” (Oh. OH. AAAAH). What the fuck. How dare they do this

hello noonie! i've been thinking about this quite a lot, actually, so thank you for bringing it up!

i've talked about this before, but i think rusty is extremely sensitive and hopeful, and the way he is is a direct result of him trying to squash those aspects of himself. ironically, i think his sensitivity is what makes him such a good detective.

he greatly downplays his interrogation skills in the 2012 interviews, saying that he can just see it in their eyes (if i recall correctly), but i think his real talent lies in being able to Connect to people. now, we all know how awkward he is in interpersonal relationships, but what i mean by connect here is Sympathize. even though the wast majority of the people he interrogates are bad people, they are still People. so be it on the basis of a shared experience/perspective, as you've mentioned, or just being able to put himself in their shoes, so to speak, he is able to make accurate predictions. he Empathizes with the suspects and murderers, and by doing so can understand them better, understand their motives and mindsets.the most interesting case of him doing this is, to me, the munchausen lady (who i am not sure actually even has munchausen. i've had a looksie at this medical journal (https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/17970367/), and it doesn't really fit. we don't hear about her taking her kids to the doctor's or the hospital, or them presenting with suspicious tummy aches/suspicious symptoms before their deaths. but i have no medical training, so what do i know). even though killing children is The Worst Possible Crime to him for obvious reasons, he is still able to sympathize with her. he expresses compassion, comforts her as she writes her confession down, and even though he is visibly disgusted by it (which results in him telling her to kill herself), he is able to, on some level, connect to her. he brings up munchausen to, in a way, excuse her actions, which makes her more willing to confess (since it's not really her fault.)(you know what i mean).

this behavior does reveal a lot about rust as a person. it drives home the point of just how Vulnerable he is, how Sensitive. he is painfully human, has a fluffy soft underbelly, and all of his crass behaviors and personal philosophies are just an attempt at concealing it, not allowing himself to be hurt again. this is why the ending is so Positive to me. him finally opening up and Showing himself to another person. now That's growth. this is just my take on the situation, and i'd love to hear what you think about this. i'm sorry for dropping another essay in an ask reply, i guess my academic conditioning is stronger than me. thank you again for letting me talk about this, love you mwah

Some top-tier cosmere cremposting for you (is cremposting still a thing when talking about other cosmere series? Would ‘rustposting’ be more appropriate?)

“All right,” Kelsier said, “let’s get you used to the basic metals. Begin burning your metal reserves, one at a time."

Vin nodded, pausing in the middle of the street. Tentatively, she reached out to one of the new sources of power.

When she did so, a very strange thing happened—a multitude of faint blue lines sprung from her chest, streaking out into the spinning mists. She froze, gasping slightly and looking down at her chest.

“What…?” Vin asked, tracing the lines of blue light with her eyes.

“We’ll get to it,” Kelsier promised. “Try another.”

Vin extinguished the strange metal and picked a new source of power. Immediately, she felt a strange vibration. Vin paused. The pulses didn’t make a sound that she could hear, yet she could feel them washing across her. They seemed to be coming from Kelsier. She looked at him, frowning.

"That’s bronze,” Kelsier said. "It is the most powerful of the metals. You see, burning bronze lets you vibe check other allomancers.”
