  1. Hey guys

    So i um

    I don't write very much, but when i do, i have been informed that i write good.

    (yes, i know the proper grammar is "write well", and thus i am not demonstrating my writing abilities. it's for personality.)

    Anyway i kind of wanna share some writing with you guys and also see if a couple story ideas i have sound interesting... specially because A. i need to choose one to work on and B. i need to write more to keep my skillz sharp, and it'd be easier to be consistent if there were people waiting on me to write something. I work mildly better under pressure. Mildly. So... this is sort of gauging interest for a Facepalm Writes thread :D

    Anyone interested?

  9. The Mitchells vs The Machines is literally the best movie I've ever seen in my entire life. I am crying uncontrollably rn. Move over Marasi, Katie Mitchell is my favorite fictional person of all time and also is me. I have not had these feelz for a movie since... since Shrek 2

  10. HAPPY STORMING BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  11. :O thanks for 2000 rep, guys!!!

    To celebrate, I'm gonna do what I usually do, which is a vibe check SU. Usually they have a theme (oddly specific, book, music, etc) but I can't really think of anything, so... you can choose! Here's a list:

    1. characters 2. books 3. music 4. instruments 5. oddly specific.

    Or maybe come up with a new thing :D

    As always, if i don't know you well, i'll do my best, but it might just be from looking at your profile lol.

    Luv you guys!

      That is so good!!! I loooove!!! Mehehehe. 

      You should draw Jon and Tim because I finished the first season of TMA and those are the two that I can't picture in my head for some reason.

      Szeth's Facepalm

      i will compile u a compilation ("compile a compilation" kinda redundant lol) of all my Jon drawings in like 4 hours when i get back from target :3 tim i should draw more though. (don't ask why i will be at target for four hours as i do not have a feasible explanation for u.)

    4. Morningtide

      Morningtide

      Target is a very easy store to get lost in for hours. My friends and I often walk there at 9pm for no explainable reason other than that they have the best gummy bears in town. Quite odd but true. I am excited for your compiled compilation :lol:

      i think that it's the first in world Singer/Human relationship.

      Sorry, but the Herdazians and Horneaters (and, by extension, the Veden) are all the results of Singer/human interbreeding.

      Quote

      Brandon Sanderson

      Horneaters are capable [of drinking the Horneater White]. They actually are human-singer hybrids, like the Herdazians, but in a different line. And they have a different physiology. And they actually are not 100% human and are capable of eating and ingesting things that would kill a person.

      Isaac Stewart

      Can singers?

      Brandon Sanderson

      Yes, singers can drink the Horneater White.

      Hmmmm interesting. A singer/human relationship between two high-up people will still be a huge thing for the current plot though, not to mention a queer one.

      Omg every time i think about it i get more and more impatient for Stormlight 5. I cannot believe he pushed the release date to 2024 for fricking Skyward............

      (skywards fine and all, but not nearly as good as anything cosmere ;-;)

    LET'S GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

    1. Morningtide

      Morningtide

      Yes! I just saw mine! I'm so excited!!!!

    2. Thaidakar the Ghostblood
  20. Alright, two things.

    1. I finished TLM and oh boy do i have opinions. I'm too sick right now to gather all my thoughts about it though, so I'll do a review later. Oh and i started Bastille vs. The Evil Librarians an hour ago and i'm halfway through, so i'll do my opinions on that as well.

    2. My grandma gave me 140 dollars to spend on books for my last birthday, and i'd forgotten about it till now. I need recommendations! I have a list of books that i've already read that i want copies of (Circe, the middle dreamer trilogy book cause for some reason it's the only one i haven't acquired a copy of, the Artemis Fowl series, and a couple others) but i want to try some new books, so recs are appreciated. I like fantasy (duh), maybe on the lighter side, and i've read some really good speculative fiction recently and would love to find some more. And really just anything you guys enjoy!

    (Yeah, I was inspired by Elf''s SU cause i forgot about the money my grandma gave me till now lol)

    YOu're awesome bye!

    1. Morningtide

      Morningtide

      I will look forward to your opinions! 

      I also don't have the middle dreamer trilogy book for some reason! Odd. The Inheritance Games series is so good. Mystery, with great characters. The Scythe series and the Unwind series by Neal Schusterman are both really great dystopians and some of my favorites. Ender's Game and the Ender's Shadow series are good. (I haven't actually recommended any fantasy yet lol) Renegades is really fun. 

      You're awesome too!

    2. Cinnamon

      Cinnamon

      If you want something light, than I’d say Amari and the Night brothers, it is middle grade fantasy and it is Storming good.

  21. GUYS

    (lost metal spoilers up to chapter 28, which is the one i am currently halfway through)

    Spoiler

    Ok so marasi shows Death/Marsh the pattern that is three interlocking triangles and looks like a marewill flower, right? That's the symbol for the ghostbloods!! Kelsier/Thaidikar!!!

    Wait are the soul-stamp lady and hoid part of the ghostbloods and is one of the ghostblood's jobs protecing other planets from bad shards??

    Oh man sorry if this is all obvious/wrong/gets revealed at the end of the book but i feel smart for decoding it with my sickly sleep deprived brain lol ( i have developed a horrid sinus infection an i suffereth)

    Anyway Happy Christmas Eve/Sixth Day Of Channuka!

    idek why i capitalized all that

      I think the epilogues make it even sadder, a certain two especially.

      Storming mortality. Gets the best of everyone, in the end.

  24. hey.

    psst.

    pssssst.

    you can often find papayas at grocery stores in the fall.

    make sure you don't eat an overripe one as it gets a strong flavor and is not particularly likable.

    if you cut into one and it is under ripe, toss it with some lemon juice and honey to improve the taste.

    but preferably just wait till it is ripe as it is best that way.

    these are from personal experience and could be rather individualistic, but i like to think i am a good judge of fruit.
