companies make billions from you thinking you're ugly btw. only ugly thing is their bottom line. log out of tiktok right now.
learning to ask 'is this an ad' will save your life
"guys i just got this new" it’s an ad
"let me show you what i just bought from" it’s an ad
"how am i just now discovering" it’s an ad
A warning:
Ask yourself “Is this an ad?” enough times and you will learn just how rare actual content is.

If Scadrians Visited Roshar & Rosharans Visited Scadrial...
As requested by anon. :)
Everyone gets to be a worldhopper! Or at least, people from these two specific planets. If they got to see each other's world and take especial note of the strange flora & fauna, how would they react?
Fun Fact: I have a notes app on my phone where I write down list ideas & joke fragments, and the earliest idea in that app that remains undone is in fact Scadrians reacting to Roshar. Looks like I'm finally getting it done!
1. Jasnah
Jasnah: This planet--it truly strains scientific principles. Jasnah: No real sunlight--and yet, there is some semblance of plant life. Jasnah: Ash that falls continuously, and yet, the world is not buried. Zane: The voices want me to kill you, lady. Jasnah: ...The people are strange as well.
2. Zane
Zane: Finally, a planet that recognizes my power! Zane: Even the plants flee before me! Zane: Behold! As I walk, the very glass flees into the ground in fear of me! Zane: HA HA HA HA HAHA Adolin: ...Is anyone going to tell him?
3. Adolin
Adolin: Wait. Is that a horse with a giant neck?? Steris: ...Do you mean the giraffe? Adolin: I HAVE TO BE ITS FRIEND
4. Steris
Steris: What a marvelous place for autistic people. Renarin: ... Steris: I like the way emotions are visible. Steris: You do not have to try to guess from what people say or--worse--how they say it. Steris: You can just look for the spren. Renarin: Wait until I tell you about Rhythms...
5. Renarin
Renarin: So... Those kandra... Mare: They're something, right? Mare: Creations of the Lord Ruler. Mare: Able to change forms at will. Renarin: I already have a boyfriend, though! Mare: What? Renarin: What?
6. Mare
Mare: This place...it's so beautiful. Mare: The plants--they're not all brown! Mare: [gasp] T-That shrub! It has flowers! Mare: The sky! It's so not black! Mare: Surely this is some sort of incredible paradise! Kaladin: ...I'm not sure I want to visit your planet.
7. Kaladin
Kaladin: This place feels like the darkness inside me escaped and covered the whole world. Kaladin: I think I saw a bag of bones and slime slither past and I was just like, "Sure, that seems right." Vin: Eh, Mistwraights are pretty harmless. Kaladin: [muttering] And Hoid thought OUR animals were gross...
8. Vin
Vin: So the horses here are...smart? Dalinar: Some horses are. Dalinar: The Rhysadium are horses who have bonded musicspren. Dalinar: They are at least near sentient. Vin: What I'm hearing is that on this world, if I decided a horse was my nemesis, the horse could hate me back? Dalinar: That is...an interpretation. Vin: ...Excellent.
9. Dalinar
Dalinar: I have a question. Ham: Oh, I'm excited to hear it! Ham: I hear that you are a great philosopher on your planet. Ham: So, please! As you look around this planet that must seem so strange and alien to you, what are the questions that burn within you?? Dalinar: Why is everyone so short? Ham: ... Ham: Maybe philosophy is different on your planet.
10. Ham
Ham: Can't help but notice that basically everything in this world is crabs. Ham: Dogs? Dog-crabs. Oxen? Oxen-crabs. Bugs? Little crabs. Ham: Plus, those Singer people are also crabs, just, like, human ones. Ham: Pretty much everything except for horses and humans are crabs. Ham: Now, I've only been here for like ten minutes, but... Ham: I bet humans aren't native to this planet. Jasnah: [looks as though she is trying to kill him with her mind] Ham: What?

okay I saw someone saying "I deadahh feel ${thing}" and it made me very sad because WHYYY are we conforming our language use to social media algorithms.
like ticktock (I don't know or care if it's spelled like that) trends should not change how a generation uses a language I don't think. it pings my "corporation having too much power" detector.
and the worst part is that when someone else said "you can say deadass here" they said that they prefer "deadahh"

I've enjoyed watching this post get a reblog here or there throughout the year and each time I think, "Whoops! Someone's queue just hit last March!"
But it's currently January and this is the top reblog in my notes at the moment. I didn't even know a queue could run 10 months long.
All this to say, you've got 2 months to get your Ides memes ready 🗡️

If Mistborn Era 1 Characters Had Access to YouTube...
As requested by anon. :)
YouTube has come to Era 1 Scadrial! And wouldn't you know it...it's pretty much the exact same YouTube we have on earth. Crazy how that works!
I did one other list about characters having YouTube channels (link here), so if you're wondering where Kelsier & Vin are, please see that previous list. :)
1. TenSoon: Cannot stop watching pet grooming videos
TenSoon: [staring fixedly as the big fluffy dog gets his coat blown out with a high velocity dryer, sending clumps of fur everywhere] Vin: Uh, TenSoon...? Vin: Do you perhaps want to experience...? TenSoon: Don't be ridiculous.
2. Marsh: Cannot stop watching pet grooming videos
Marsh: [staring fixedly as the big fluffy dog gets his coat blown out with a high velocity dryer, sending clumps of fur everywhere] Kelsier: Uh, Marsh...? Kelsier: Do you want to get a dog...? Marsh: Don't be ridiculous.
3. Allrianne & Breeze: Cannot stop watching ASMR Slime-Making Videos
Allrianne & Breeze: [totally locked in, staring mesmerized at the manicured hands going schhkt schhht in the slime] Breeze: I can't believe I resisted watching these for so long... Allrianne: I TOLD you!
4. Sazed: Has a channel called The Religion Guy
Sazed: It is Day 19 of trying to find a religion for Kelsier to join. Sazed: Kelsier, allow me to introduce you to a religion that is all about honoring the dead...by bringing punishment to those responsible. Kelsier: I can't say I'm not intrigued. Sazed: Let me paint you a picture...
5. Tindwyl: Watches a lot of Defunctland
Sazed: Well this seems...outside of your normal interests. Tindwyl: I came for the excellent research, and stayed for the barely suppressed rage at the idiosyncrasies of those in power. Sazed: ...I'll make the popcorn.
6. Ham: Watches a lot of Kurzgesagt
Dockson: Ham, if you continue to send me links to this YouTube channel, I WILL block you. Ham: Just give them a try! Believe me--you'll learn a lot!
7. Spook: Has a gaming channel
Spook: Well, chat, now that I've played 90,000 hours of Celeste, I've found that I can actually do the whole game with my eyes closed. Spook: ... Spook: I'm sure it's healthy.
8. Zane: Watches horror game lore videos
Zane: Five Nights at Freddy's is deeper than you might think, you know. Vin: Please stop following me.
9. The Lord Ruler: Watches bird feeder cams
Inquisitor #1: Is he in his hut again? Inquisitor #2: Yup. Inquisitor #1: Is he...still watching bird cams on YouTube? Inquisitor #2: He likes the snowy ones.
10. Elend: Will start his YouTube channel any day now
Elend: I think this was a great planning session for Philosophy Boys! Jastes: This channel is going to be SO GOOD once we start it! Telden: We're really going to change some minds. Kevoux: Here, here! Elend: Yeah, I bet in another couple of months we'll be ready to launch! [Narrator's voice: And then they never did]

This joke has probably been made a gajillion times
Boomer take of mine is that I should only have to pay for something ONCE. I shouldn't have to pay extra in order to USE the product after I bought it.
I got some cameras for my lizard, and after downloading the app and setting them up, I can't even access the fucking memory because it's behind a paywall
IF I'M PAYING MONEY FOR SOMETHING, I WANT TO BE ABLE TO USE IT IN ITS ENTIRETY WITHOUT PAYING EXTRA BS FEES.
New England is such a weird place.
There is SO MUCH EMPTY SPACE. Like acres and acres of space. Nobody tries to buy it and turn it into a housing development. Everyone seems to live right outside the woods. All of Northern Maine is the woods. It feels like there is both too much and too little space. Like there are towns and populated areas that are right next to the woods. This unnerves me. Yet there are no farms to be found. All wilderness, no farms. I don't think I've seen a single farm in New England. There's no cornfields or cows or horses or manure or anything agricultural anywhere near my college in New England. I sometimes yearn for the cows. I have the urge to stand in a cornfield. I miss the touristy farms that were by my home.

I started reading the Mistborn series as a form of escapism, but now the fictional senate passed a bill that disenfranchises the populace outside the city and possible war is brewing over access to a valuable resource and I just…

Yesterday I kinda overheard some coworkers talking about the holiday coming up and one of them said "I just don't understand why people get so wild about it" And so of course my dumbass butted in to say, "Well historically it was a pretty wild event, what with all the stabbing".
They were talking about people going out and partying on St. Patrick's day.
