@kholinoscopy

Cosmere shitposting, art, Sanderson progress updates, and theories that are wrong. mack, 21. Send me asks and requests for drawings (but like, why would you want to, omg im so bad)

So game of thrones has sort of gone off the rails but Maisie Williams would be a+ casting for Vin in a mistborn movie, right?

hi everyone in case you were wondering how the horizon zero dawn map matches up to the real world, here it is thanks for coming to my ted talk

This is quite relevant to my interests (I googled a few places while we were playing, but I was trying to avoid spoilers, so).

Did you say.... Ted talk? Ted talking has historically always been a bad thing...

My favorite thing is reading people’s reaction posts about Brandon Sanderson books when they haven’t finished the book.

Every time it’s like… Oh honey, you feel that way towards that character… Oh my innocent sweet summer child, the things that you will learn.

Just say denth and tonk fah

been a long time gone, oh Constantinople

why did Constantinople get the works?

That’s nobody’s business but the Turks
psychic: what the fuck

Reminder that even though governor Ralph Northam SHOULD step down, any republican who tells you that, but still voted for trump after he bragged on international television about raping women, absolutely does not care about racism. If wearing black face and a klan hood disqualifies a person for public office, so does being a rapist. This shit isn't fucking complicated holy fuck.

AKA why the electoral college has gotta go. 

though looking at the comments the folks who live in the red part think this is why the electoral college has got to stay. because they like getting 3.5 votes per capita. 

Tyranny of the few is a pretty sweet deal if you belong to the few.

The wild part is how those people view this as the equal version. Like their votes counting as more than other people’s votes is fair because if it wasn’t like that then they’d be in the minority.

Americans, particularly American conservatives, have a horrible habit of equating area with population. Yeah, if we ditched the electoral college a small section of the country would have more power. Because that’s where most of the country lives. Hate to break it to the rural folks in Nebraska, but they are not what the “real” face of America looks like. They’re not even average Americans. The average American lives within commuting distance of a medium to large city. We simply act like they’re average because they have power disproportionate to their actual numbers.

California is the most populous state in the country. We make up more than 10% of the US population, fully a third bigger than Texas which is the next most populous state. We are also the biggest contributors to the US economy and get back almost nothing of what we pay in federal taxes. But politicians get elected not by listening to us and our needs, but by actively dismissing us as those crazy hippies who don’t understand what “real” Americans are like. Instead they focus their efforts on Ohio and Michigan which have smaller populations than the LA urban area alone.

Now, I do think we need to care about rural populations. Everyone deserves to have their basic needs met and both parties have failed at helping with that for some time now. But your vote shouldn’t count for more than mine just because there’s more empty space around you.

Count Olaf’s last words

He recites only the last verse of Philip Larkin’s poem “This Be The Verse” as the rest is filled with curse words.

To me this poem pretty much sums up origins of VFD schism, shows how wicked organization it was and how all members were doomed from the very beginning.

This is the full version of the poem:

“They fuck you up, your mum and dad.   
They may not mean to, but they do.   
They fill you with the faults they had
And add some extra, just for you.
But they were fucked up in their turn
By fools in old-style hats and coats,   
Who half the time were soppy-stern
 And half at one another’s throats.
Man hands on misery to man.
It deepens like a coastal shelf.
Get out as early as you can,
And don’t have any kids yourself.”

back in my day, we had to walk uphill both ways in the snow through the mortmain mountains, hotel denouement burned to the ground and every single person probably died, and the baudelaires were potentially killed by a giant question mark in the ocean, and you know what we were GRATEFUL

steadily realizing i’m That Person who will definitely pick a fight with someone i don’t like (you know, the sorts of people who push your buttons without even trying??) for no real reason

When my mom died and my teachers let me take time off to grieve, my uncle told me he "wasn't sure they were doing me any favors." I get to see him at tomorrow at his republican-ass Christmas party and I cannot wait for him to test me.

Ted Faro is the ultimate fuckboy. The extreme fuckboy. The ascendant fuckboy. The millennial fuckboy. The phenomenal fuckboy. A fuckboy above, a fuckboy of fuckboys. He is a premier fuckboy, a limited edition fuckboy…

I want DLC where I can punch him in the face.
