Just read Rhythm of War Chapter 108 and I’m crying

“If Frodo would have just complied with the Nazgûl, he would have been fine.”

A joyous scene at a medieval festival features Dunk lifting Egg, both smiling and cheering. Egg raises a fist triumphantly. A lively crowd surrounds them, celebrating together against a backdrop of lush greenery and tents.

I’m halfway through the Stranger Things finale and I’m stressed

Yeah it’s a good drama but there are reasons I never went into healthcare

Wait I don’t know if I can deal with the sounds of surgery I might bail on this

Ok alright I’ll watch the Pitt

Don't worry about Cuomo, he'll be back in 27 years

Patrick Wilson's Agent: A lot of offers came in! Which one of these horror franchises do you want to lead?

Patrick: All of them.

Agent: ...What?

Patrick: ALL OF THEM!

In a world of injustices, one more is that The Wheel of Time got canceled while Mayfair Witches got to continue

I started Season 2 of Mayfair Witches and I cannot believe a show of this low quality writing and acting can be in the same universe as the masterpiece that is Interview with the Vampire

All I'm saying is we never got a confirmed Maeglin death and my modern media brain tells me the character is ALIVE AND BROODING

All the insane antics of some very fascist people have at least gotten me to pick up my guitar and start writing music again. Considering recording this new tune i wrote

Do not pay $100,000 to become a podcaster for the love of god

Watching my darling wife play Ghost of Yotei and it is BEAUTIFUL

Aside from my One Piece journey, I've been reading the Naruto manga for the first time. Some problematic relics aside, it's such a great adventure story!

I have been SUCH a defender of Xbox's trajectory since the start of this generation, and a big Game Pass fan, but this pricing really puts the nail in the coffin for me. This is the last Xbox I buy.

I'm really enjoying The Stormlight Archive in the middle of Oathbringer and I just feel like at some point when Eru Illuvatar designed me he was like "this guy's really gonna love series that don't hit their strides until 2500 pages in."

Let him cook

I've had a very rough week, but then again, Taco Bell brought back the 7 layer burrito, so things are looking up

Nearing the end of Dressrossa in One Piece. I think this is my favorite arc after Marineford

I know Brandon Sanderson recommends starting the Cosmere with Mistborn, but I don't think that's the best choice for everyone.

I genuinely think I would have enjoyed all of his work more if I started with The Way of Kings.
