Enjoyed this guy on Arrow. Thought the rest of the episode needed some more pizazz. But Constantine stole the show. Wait, why aren't you Oliver Queen right now? 8+2x/10 (X depends on how satisfactorily I'm not confused by the end of the day.)

It's actually ironic that somewhere in the infinite expanse of random strings lies a perfect directory to the entire thing. As well as an infinite number of imperfect ones.

He might. I can't remember. It's all a bit... misty. Oh, um... Erm... RAFO. In the mean time, I'm not quite sure how I feel about Dumbleburns.

When the word spren is almost included your biology exam answers.

I usually think of it as a sudden exhaling limited to the nasal passages similar to a blast of laughter, except that there is no engagement of the vocal cords and you let it out through your nose, not your mouth. So... I think scoff is probably a good substitute.

Have you looked up proofs for this? I had my math TA walk me through it, and it's pretty cool. The idea of an indefinite integral (from what I know) was not necessarily used until the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus was derived. Integrals and derivatives are two separate entities, but the FTC joins them and shows that they are inverse processes to a degree. It's just that often times, the symbol for integration is used as a magic wand to say, "This is the symbol for antidifferentiation", when, in fact, it's actually just computing the integral from 0 to [insert variable] for whatever function the integrand is. Definite integrals are your friends! (most of the time)

You grew up in the Stormlight, eh? I was wondering what would break first: your spren, or your body. 14/14

Hmmm... The Expendables or the 300?

Might want to double check the spoiler placement on that one. it should be on either side of the meme.

Presumably, there had never been two Rithmatists who were that bad at either offense of defence such that they would be best suited to pairing up. We assume that the Rithmatists were trained sufficiently and that anyone actually planning on dueling would have somewhat of a balance. Also remember that a wider circle leaves more room for error as one draws, so there is a significant disadvantage to a team that must use a larger circle to accommodate two Rithmatists. The unique pairing of a Rithmatist and non-Rithmatist is exceptionally interesting because no non-Rithmatists would have been trained enough to participate in that manner. What you have is one young, inexperienced Rithmatist and one Rithmatically-well-read and analytical sketcher. This combination had never been used before and had never had occasion to be used before, since those Rithmatists are so secretive about their art.

I went to one of Brandon's signings and there were only four or five people. Naturally, I walk up to him with my book and a lot of questions in my mind, but then I realize that I need my book. So I pull it out of my backpack and open up the wrapping paper. (Because who doesn't have their book gift wrapped at a signing? ) Brandon smiles awkwardly and signs the book. I ask him my question about the Dor and cultural identity, and he says that he prefers to avoid answering political questions... And I woke up. That was an odd dream.

You get a glove worn by Navani's safehand! *inserts clip*

Huh. I took Wells' line about "We need to stop Zoom before he sends another double from Barry's life" as an indicator that he might know that Caitlin as Killer Frost in his world.

Brandon keeps on posting on Facebook how much he has written every day for NaNoWriMo. I'm not sure that being this aware of his progress is going to be good for my excited stomach or my overblown expectations.

You get released. *inserts RAFO*

You get Nan Balat. Hum... *inserts Pathian earring*

Disclaimer: The following is primarily speculation and not particularly well researched. It was simply a thought that turned into a few paragraphs. Feel free to correct, comment, and point out similar theories. The Cognitive Realm is a realm filled with people's perceptions, is it not? And the Dor is stuck there, right? Is the Dor more connected to people's actual Spiritual connection to an ideal of a country, or is it more connected to their perception of who they are and where they are? If the latter is so, then perhaps this is why each realm has "evolved" a magic system with different effects, since the Dor, while not bound to each country, perceives itself as belonging to different areas. Perhaps there is a Cognitive sentience to each country, that is, it is so strongly seen as its own place, that it has a mind of its own. Now this allows for each Dominion to see itself uniquely from each other Dominion and each one attracts parts of the Dor. I can imagine whorls of Investiture clumping around each Dominion's hub. Perhaps MaiPon has a weaker Cognitive identity, and as such, attracts less of the Dor, and has a less Investiture-intense magic system. (There are many WoBs that say that Forged objects are minimally invested.) Arelon, on the other hand, has a strong cultural and national identity (why Teod is included, I don't know), leading to more Investiture from the Dor, and the powerful, Investiture-rich AonDor. A possible result of this: If a nation, such as Duladel, is destroyed both nationally and culturally, then the Dor could no longer find any "Duladen" minds to support a Duladen-specific manifestation of the Dor, which is why it is such a shame that no one knows the Jesker religion anymore and the Mysteries have (probably) become just occult practices. If the Duladen culture is replaced by Fjordell's culture, then perhaps the Dakhor monks' bone patterns would change to reflect the geographic expansion. Likewise, if you are in an area that is not seen as Arelish, then the AonDor's portion of the Dor does not extend that far. As you go further and further from the "hub", the lower the concentration of Investiture available for your specific geographic key is. This model would predict less powerful Aons in Teod, but much less effective in Fjordell, even if it is close by. This seems to be contradicted by the Dakhor monks being powerful everywhere, but I would argue that they are simply already Invested, and don't have to access the Dor nearly as often except when imbuing others of their order with power. Summary: I hypothesize that there are hub-like points for the Dor on Sel, centering around the strongest Cognitive cultural/national self-identity, leading to the compartmentalized magic system with many manifestations across the globe that we see today.
