Frustration

We already almost have Alberta, the rest of the country will be ours within our lifetimes.

Our first set of Results are in. Our first battle is a Magnified One versus a Deepest One. Our Deepest One took two Raysium daggers, the Magnified One hid four Aluminum Daggers in his carapace Battle: More battles will begin shortly, please keep an eye out for PMs

Thou talkest a lot of smack for being within Manifest Destiny distances.

Ah, would you like to join the Revelution part 2? Oh no what have you done? They are coming! The American invasion prepers, they are coming! Beans on Toast is the worst thing the Brittish have ever done.

Oh great the Brittish are here.

Look it's nothing against you in particular, TLPW was just my first real community thread here. I can't leave it.

Chaos said that like 90% of all site traffic is from China. 100% the vast majority of the guests are bots data harvesting.

Well the relationship between Investiture, Identity, Connection, and Fortune are so far as I can determine that Investiture is a third form to matter and energy - confirmed Connection is a force of attraction similar to gravity but for ideas 3. Identity is similar to an antigen(if you've studied biology) that says what spiritweb/investiture belongs to whom, and is a lot of what causes Investiture it interfere with itself 4. Fortune, I honestly don't know. It's a thing and a property but what exactly it is is unclear It's more than just a perpendicularity. Ishar needed a Connection to Roshar to bridge that gap, and the songs of Roshar guided him. Ishar needed Adhesion. Dang it I posted the wrong WoB, and now I can't find the one I want. Shoot. Oh well, I have other WoBs that get to the same issue

It's all part of the master plan. That actually reminds me of a time I manipulated a coworker into doing something I didn't want to by doing it so slowly that it got on his nerves. Good times.

I've been in this fight for six years. I'm not backing down now. On a sidenote what are yall's thoughts on beans?

You seem to misunderstand. I want the number of posts in TLPW to exceed the number of posts in TLT. Until that happens, I won't post there.

I'm aware of what it is, but I am committed to the mission of TLPW. TLT will fall, and TLPW will take its rightful place as the longest thread of the 17th shard. I will not aid TLT, it is only a matter of time.

No. I am a TLPWer and I will never surrender.

Sing us a song you're the piano man

Very interesting, I like the amount of effort you put into this. I'm also happy someone else is trying for a Unified Investiture Theory. Though I have to ask how Fortune fits into this. That WoB is talking about surgebinding on Ashyn, not Yolen. While I do think in general there is a lot going on here, and that Adhesion and Progression have perhaps been polarized by the presence of Honor and Cultivation, there are a few things to consider. Ishar followed Odium on Ashyn It was through the powers of a Bondsmith that humanity was able to cross the worlds and make it to Roshar It's not confirmed, but heavily implied that Ishar was both a Bondsmith and an Elsecaller on Ashyn, or at least had powers similar enough we could call him that. That would lead us to the conclusion that Odium can make Bondsmiths, or at least something close thereto. I know these names are just useful tool for showing a difference, but Lightweaving was called Lightweaving on Yollen. Additionally, I'm not sure how much I would say that surges are universal so much as they function of of the same fundamentals as on Roshar that's how they chose to classify them. If they do operate on the whole cosmere this way then there should be ten surges

Huh that's interesting, I found ChatGPT to generally give pretty accurate answers. Now I had to correct it a few times because it got Atium Feuchemy laughably wrong, but other than that it was pretty on point

RoW

Total Cosmere spoilers That's nothing. With the things that they're doing and the dangers involved we should see another several. Like I can give a list of times that Characters should die but don't.

Speaking of fictional violence I'd like to argue in favor of the opinion that Brandon needs to kill more characters, especially the good guys

Okay, but dancing is like violence against loneliness Okay, but like all of the best stories have violence. Or fencing, or HEMA. Or countless other things

... Violence against what?

We've gotten closer and further away for years. It's a beautiful dance. As for how to defeat them, well it helps to have a conversation. Fact: A day is better when it starts with a dance, preferably ballroom.

I'm pretty sure we proved American engineering to be superior. Twice.
