I was thinking,

Plate is separate pieces that work together to make a single form...

Legos are separate pieces that work together to make a single form...

You can mix and match pieces of plate

You can mix and match Legos

Shardplate is just magical Lego armor

Must be very painful to walk on broken pieces of shardplate then

Was anyone else like screaming “Demoux!!” at the screen after like the second clue on “Whose that Cosmere Character”?

You forgot that in one of the flashbacks where Dalinar remembers Navani talking really enthusiastically about new fabrial technology and Gavilar was just ignoring her.

These are my favorite things ever now.

I have been recognized by the Shardcast, Heralds be praised I must have an ardent burn glyphwards for me as a show of gratitude!!

A separate note: Did anyone consider that maybe Lutha (or whatever the name of the city was named after) was one of the Lord Ruler's children? And maybe at first he was having children that were both Feruchemists and Mistborn? Or maybe at least one? It was also discussed that the Lord Ruler tried to give up the kingdom at one point, how do we know he didn't try to give it up to one of his children who his capital city is named after?

My theory would be that the Lord Ruler planned on having at least one, maybe more, children who would have the similar powers to him. After all, besides mistborn he needed powerful allies/minions to help him keep hold of the kingdom. We know that he made the inquisitors and that those individuals had many of the powers that made the Lord Ruler extremely powerful. What if he thought at first he could accomplish the same with his own offspring? So he has Lutha, someone who is a full Feruchemist and Mistborn and begins prepping him to take over the kingdom. He even establishes Luthadel and starts converting it into the kingdoms capital. His plan is to give the empire over to his son/daughter (I guess we don't know for sure the gender).

Then the plan doesn't end up working out. Maybe Lutha is killed (not super likely in this scenario) or starts going a way that the Lord Ruler doesn't want. Maybe he wants to free the ska or joins Ruin or goes crazy or maybe he just leaves Scadrial and goes worldhopping (crackpot theory, I know). The Lord Ruler has to kill Lutha, decides that the only person he can trust completely is himself and settles into a much more strict set of procedures for his tyrannical rule to make sure he isn't put at risk again.

Anywho, those are my two cents.
