It is still powerful, just a lot more widespread. I would argue the comics did nerf it with how weak it seems to be whenever azula uses it
See this is why I never take it seriously when people go crazy here defending people's appearances lol... Fuck both of these two idiots but it's very funny that a year ago anyone who called Bella ugly would get burned at the stake
“Sex scenes don’t advance the plot” is such a crazy take to me, it’s really only possible for a virgin to have that perspective I’m sorry— having sex completely changes the dynamics of character relationships, and yes seeing the actual sex informs a lot about those dynamics
I think fitz and the fool have the best relationship I've read in any book, ever. It's really just a fact at this point and I think it will be very hard for me to find anything that would top it at this point
@NeoWokio
I also wanna point out a lot of sokka’s character isn’t sexism for the sake of sexism but rather a consequence of him being the oldest male in a community where all the men went to war so he has a child like understanding of masculinity and what it means to be a man
Why does richard siken keep replying to twitter ppl if he clearly doesn't like what he's asked most of the time. Like I can't even blame him for being annoyed but why engage
robin hobb goated as hell for explorations of gender, sexuality, misogyny and prejudice in a time where arguably not a lot of mainstream fantasy authors dared to do so. love her sm
@AOTY2024
And the MANY other horrible things he has said and done? No. Smells like Taymisogyny to me (can’t say misogyny cause the are female artists who are have done many many bad things, but their reviews are always based on their music because the critics ‘separates art from artists)
@PinkRangerLB
Thank you. This is exactly why I find GoT to be totally unwatchable. I watched one episode with a friend and kept asking, "who am I supposed to be rooting for here? They're all awful." Gave it another chance later and felt the same. Just hated it and every character in it.
just watched a vid of some dude saying he hates robin hobb bc she's bad at storytelling and she focuses on 'banal' things but he's rated every single wheel of time book positively. ok buddy
@readandwrite__
We're going to have a lot more announcements for various stuff coming up; let's just say that I didn't get fancy new author photos shot on a whim.
Horrible things happen every single day all day and people can still live their lives. I'm sorry but no people posting about their personal lives isn't evil or means that they don't care. Of all the things to worry about why focus on something this trivial
Idk why everyone is fighting about this. Jet isn't a morally reprehensible character because he "fought against settlers", but because he was willing to kill innocents. Sokka straight up tells him he became the traitor when he stopped protecting the innocent
This is one of the moments from the book that i’m really excited to see in the show. Rhaenyra sitting on the iron throne while Alicent begs and bows to her. I truly hope the writers won’t destroy this scene and make it “emotional”
You dislike Korea because she’s brash and reckless teenager, unlike Aang, who you’ve convinced yourself is the epitome of what it means to be the Avatar.
The writing in Korra does not play it safe like ATLA; Y’all don’t like that actions had steep consequences lol.
im supposed to believe a man who is very supportive of his trans sister would “explain” the movement by telling her to “just put the hashtag on your feed”
Ok I'll bite. If your sense of self is so fragile that this shakes you, you are an NPC. This girl is saying a bunch of nothing with that annoying ass tone and expression and you people are eating it up like gospel. Being gagged by this just tells me you have no self-respect sorry
wot fans be like this 1000k page book with zero plot progression or character development or anything positive in it gets so good when u read it for the 8th time bro trust me

@zachsilberberg
...you're proving his point. one shouldn't need to be this familiar with the lore to be able to distinguish two different locations from each other. It's bad set design
Henry Cavill called Sanderson and asked him if he could play Kaladin and if he was too old to play him.... Sanderson confirmed he was too old and that Kal is Asian 💀💀💀💀
Henry... ???? 💀💀💀 I can't.
