Lmao what the fuck, such wrecker vibes from you. Or you're just a piece of shit, who knows!
Looked at the image before reading your description. Saw the canopy as half of the earth and its trunk being chopped up as a metaphor for what's happening to the world
Get a little squirt bottle bidet
It's like quinoa and vegetables and stuff with seasoning, no fake sweetener. Totally not a huel shill, I swear
The powder is not great but their dehydrated stuff is actually good
I mean yeah putting a ton of faith or effort in to electoral politics is a fuck. That doesn't mean we can't ever hope someone who has had decent success so far expressly advocating for socialism could be good. Deciding he's going to turn to the dark side before there's even a clue he will is pretty dumb and just leftist nihilism
Why so pessimistic?
i am going to megadose.
Think it is supposed to be held but l was replaced by space
Add me to that list
Completely fair, and if spren are what throw you out of the immersion of the books, no other worlds (each series within the whole cosmere universe takes place on different systems. Stormlight Archive = Roshar system, Mistborn = Scadrian system, so on) have them present.
None of his other books are as long as the Stormlight novels, so there is some umph missing when comparing them, but I'd highly recommend giving the Mistborn series a spin. The magic system is probably my favorite of all the books and while they are shorter, Sanderson still does a great job building the world and characters along with an engaging story
Yeah I think Mistborn is my favorite magic system in the cosmere books, allomancy and metalminds are just so cool.
I also really appreciate all the work Sanderson does in including just about everything he uses in his books. From talking with mental health professionals and those dealing with different issues for characters with depression, DID, autism, etc. to creating accurate portrayals of silk in a world without silkworms. He really does an amazing job building worlds and characters.
I appreciate the answer, I'm not sure whether I think this will result in anything, but I at least understand why people think it is worthwhile.
Outside of electoral politics there are plenty of organisations that are worth your time more than this and within electoral politics focusing on how bad pelosi is and how she shouldn't be speaker is also more worthwhile because at least there's a chance she gets pushed aside
But how is this used for further radicalization?
Why would I be asking the question from the position of I think this is pointless if I saw a route to radicalization of others for it lol. Everyone rabid about doing this is saying
Step 1: Force the vote
Step 2: Count who doesn't vote for it
Step 3: ????
Step 4: Revolution
I have yet to see how the "ammunition" of someone voting no will do anything to improve material conditions
Not trying to force you back into Stormlight, but Way of Kings is a really hard first book for the overall cosmere universe. If you were to ever return to Sanderson books I'd highly recommend this reading order
Elantris -> Hope of Elantris (Part of the Arcanum Unbound short story collection) -> The Emperor's Soul (Arcanum Unbound) -> The Final Empire -> The Eleventh Metal (Arcanum Unbound) -> The Well of Ascension -> The Hero of Ages -> The Alloy of Law -> Shadows of Self -> The Bands of Mourning -> Mistborn: Secret History (Arcanum Unbound) -> Warbreaker -> The Way of Kings -> Words of Radiance -> Edgedancer (Arcanum Unbound) -> Oathbringer -> Dawnshard -> Rhythms of War -> Remaining Arcanum Unbound short stories
The cosmere universe is one of, if not my favorite book series, but starting in Way of Kings makes it hard to immerse yourself in it
I'm already listening to and reading a lot, not a ton of time to listen to an hour of discussion on this. If it can't be answered succinctly then I am just going to assume there isn't a good answer
Ultimately it seems like framing this all within electoral politics is rather pointless. It's ammunition for what? How is it actually going to change anything? By the time there are primaries this is a at best a distant blip in the memory of the electorate, and if you're organizing to radicalize people there are plenty of other issues much more impactful to speak about.
Sure it could do something, but the chances of that are incredibly low, to the point it doesn't feel worth the effort involved in getting it to happen.
If we want to talk electoral politics then the controversy should rest on Pelosi's Speaker of the House role and not that she'll get voted for if she lets a m4a vote fail in the house "so we can know who is bad"
I was looking for someone recommending no cook, and your recipe looks very similar to mine although I think I go a bit heavier on the oregano and salt also adding in some white pepper. I think it really brightens the flavor and lets the other ingredients in the sauce breathe. Cooked sauce has a lot heavier tomato flavor
