Love your signature! It took me until the end to figure it out. I’m glad to know that not everyone hates Kvothe!

for all his flaws, that lad can turn a phrase!

Cal, Oversleep and I had some fun. We barely remember who we are

Doing my monthly WoB catchup and noticed this. (Basic Mistborn/Stormlight spoiler I s'pose?)
SpoilerAlvaro Lopez
Why Odium is stronger and worst evil than Ruin?
Brandon Sanderson
One reason is that Ruin had a person in control of it who, for many years, fought against the impulse to destroy--and in the end, channeled it toward entropy and decay, necessary elements of the universe. Odium represents something else entirely.
I'm sure you've seen it, I'm sure you've posted about it, I'm sure you've discussed it. But doesn't sound like his belief, sounds like his decision? That he deliberately channeled it the way he did rather than because of how he saw Ruin.
K I'll see you in another few months or next time a WoB supports my longstanding opposition to one of your longstanding theories

The hivemind has been operating through only one avatar? The burdens of three become Cal's!

I am, my brother from a Polish mother. I have not re-emerged from my cocoon yet, still no time for Discord or theorizing or even browsing the forums - but trying to stick my head up occasionally. Hoping to resolve normal sharding in the next couple of months, when real life allows. Boy will I have theories to catch up on (as I've read new WoBs but am so out of the loop on agreed implications). Miss yous.

Today marks my one year Shardversary! I want to thank everyone here for not just making a wonderful, friendly, welcoming and intellectually remarkable community. Discovering Sanderson changed my life but it could have never been as significant without this community! I've learned things about the cosmere i could never have discovered alone. I've had wonderfully times theorizing. But more than that I've found my people, the only online community I could need.
From finally joining and wanting to be a WoB Master, being the most prolific poster of the first few months of the year, to almost never posting now due to time constraints and spending most of that time on Discord, to having the honor and privilege to help establish Arcanum (one of the single greatest innovations this community has done - of which I was a regretfully tiny part), its been just an amazing part of my life and will remain so for a very long time.
I want to particularly thank @Chaos for the incredible work he does here, serving and building this community and never thinking he's done enough. I want to thank all the admins and mods but there are too many, you know I love you, so I'll single out again @WeiryWriter and @Mestiv for their unbelievable work on Arcanum. And of course I want to thank my man @Calderis for the early months we spent theorizing together and basically mirroring each other through our cosmere journey (until he went mad and posted at 10 times my rate :')). This place wouldn't have been quite the same without you Cal. And for those who don't know, it is also his Shardversary
Bless all of you, I'll try to be a more regular contributor again.
Dance with the wind.

Wait wait wait wait wait @StrikerEZ. You have the same storming shardversary? Booyah. Always knew I loved you bro. Happy shardversary! And yeah assuming we're not the same person, we are a pretty dynamite couple

I worked in an Aussie pizza place for 3 years. It was like that every night. Is...that not how other countries work?

I'm not sure where to put this, but it's one of my favorite bits of Stormlight art I've seen. Someone on reddit had it commissioned. Beautiful.
