“No apologize!” Shallan declared. “Boots!”

Kaladin leaned back, trying to parse what had just been said. “Boots?” he asked.

“Yes,” Shallan said. “I am liking your boots. You will apology with boots.”

“You . . . want my boots?”

Hi! I've been mutuals with amal for a couple of weeks now and her campaign is starting to stagnate.

She's like my own sister in a lot of ways. Smart, kind, well spoken, and 26 years old studying for her masters degree. But instead of getting to pursue her passions, her university was destroyed and she has to focus on the survival of herself and 20 other family members while also bearing the weight of massacres she's witnessed.

Considering I've amassed a big following over the years, it's only right to expose her campaign to more eyes to help Amal, her husband, one year old daughter and extended family stay warm, fed and as healthy as feasibly possible during an ongoing genocide.

Currently she's residing in her uncle's tent since hers was washed into the ocean last month. A new tent alone costs four thousand dollars USD, which is especially hard to come by when you have no income and food is just as expensive. Everybody, including Amal, deserves a place to call their own. Somewhere they can have room to stretch and privacy to study, even if it's just a tent. I hope one day they can move back into a house and give their daughter a peaceful childhood like every kid deserves, but in the meantime @amalashuor needs aid now.

highly recommend keeping a small portrait of a historical figure who met a grisly end on your work desk. for perspective.

the postcard of thomas cromwell i keep on my desk: i was on committees with the duke of norfolk. and they beheaded me.

me: yep. good point.

Does Kaladin know Kalak is Restares. When Kalak mentions or someone else mentions Kalak has used the name Restares with the Sons of Honor does Kaladin connect the dots to more than "oh Amaram was in that group" or does he remember that Amaram specifically said that Restares had the right idea before having the stormwarden brand Kaladin. Does Kalak remember telling Amaram to brand some guy to keep the shard blade. Does Kaladin remember that Restares was mentioned right before his remaining four men were killed. how does that conversation go. Does that conversation happen or does Kaladin just not mention it to anyone but Syl.

i find the whole "i had unpleasant experiences with leftists before so now im a raging fascist" narrative incredibly funny because we have all had unpleasant experiences with leftists before. it comes free with being a leftist

Kinda wild how my parents have known me for longer than literally anybody else on the planet and they still haven’t unlocked the relationship levels that allow them access to information like what TV shows or music I enjoy, when some random guy at Walmart got there within ten minutes today
