I honestly don’t know how well letter-writing campaigns work, but I signed this and wrote a comment. If you live here, maybe you can do the same.

Do y’all not see that these attempts to make Mamdani a Jew vs Muslim issue is CLASSIC white supremacy pitting minority groups against each other in order to divide us because we are very dangerous to them when we’re in community?? Are y’all for real gonna fall for that shit!?

Fucking bigots are scared of their own shadow.

Which is fair, because their shadow’s attached to a bigot.

The path for Democrats is very clear: have good ideas, believe in them, state them clearly, stick to them, act decisively in support of these ideas, speak to the young half of the electorate, support other democrats who do these things. Follow Mamdani and Lander's example or fade into nothingness.

I don’t know, peeps, but I just keep coming back around to the idea that what so many people want is a hopeful vision of a better world, with autonomy, dignity, & respect for all, affordability of food/shelter, education, medical care, clean air/water, & a place in a community. That’s the message.

Oh NYC, congratulations! Now if Minneapolis can just do the same to Frey…

Ooof yeah, very wise!

It must be a lot cooler there because I can’t even look at my knitting right now. Even socks just feel like too much wool to touch.

God my absolute heart is with the people of Iran, who’ve fought so steadfastly for their own liberation, and are getting fucked half a dozen ways by a whole pantheon of geriatric war criminals while being told they should be grateful for it

Hi! Cis queer person here who overwhelmingly supports trans rights, yes. And I am not alone in that.

I was making somen last night and I was able to read the mentsuyu bottle to figure out how much to dilute it and I was so goddamned proud of myself

It’s been such fun to go along on this journey with you! It’s been so great seeing a perspective like yours with just love for the show for what it is.

Every. Time.

it is beyond time to see your own complicity in the present moment: when you only mask at protests & never even consider doing so in the grocery store, pharmacy, on public transit, you contribute to a social climate able to criminalize protective tools. CHOOSE SOLIDARITY, prevent infection, mask up.

I find it a bit jarring, but I’m an “the actual sound of the prose” kind of person. I do settle into it after a bit, but for me it takes a little while

Also, AFTER you read…CoT I think…Google “wotfaq” and go the the Steelypips website. You’ll find a meticulously annotated version of what we were talking about in the lead up to KoD. (I don’t THINK it has spoilers past that, because it died shortly after)

One of the things I loved about having the show is it gave fans the chance to theorycraft again.

Same with Hadestown, which was being workshopped far earlier than it went to Broadway. “Why We Build the Wall” as a villain song is chilling

And the RJ got sick and eventually passed and it was heartbreaking. I don’t find the last three books as deeply moving as the first 11, but we’re all profoundly grateful they even exist.

It was wild. The internet was still a bit of a wild west but WoT fans were everywhere, endlessly theorizing while waiting for the next book. A popular forum had signatures filled with which theories you championed.

I have the newest @guygavrielkay.bsky.social book now in my hands (worth the wait to support @bookshop.org ) and I fully plan to be crying by… hmm, evening tomorrow, at a guess?

Hmmm, my first instinct is that there aren’t nearly enough blue tabs there, but it’s been quite awhile. Would love to see what you marked but only once you’re done. (Then what you’d mark as “foreshadowing” on a reread!)

This is fantastic

I always, always thought I was Brown, until someone on here said White was the “spreadsheet Ajah” and now I might have to change allegiances. (Did you know Excel has a 255 character limit for formulas? I didn’t until I accidentally hit it.)

Ohhhh I remember The Big White Book. That was definitely Not Great

YouTube video by JoyScott13 Reacts Save The Wheel of Time (PLEASE)!!!

Joy has been my favorite non-reader reactor since I found her videos. She's truly a part of this community and her reaction here speaks for all of us, I think. (Also, she's going to react to the books, which should be amazing)

“Our actors deserve it”: Amazon Ignored Rosamund Pike’s Plea for The Wheel of Time Season 4 as It Cancels the Show After 3 Seasons Amazon left The Wheel of Time hanging by a thread. Rosamund Pike cried foul, but her plea fell on deaf ears. 3 seasons in & story's axed mid-spell.

“The fans deserve it, the books deserve it, and our actors deserve it.”

A white person’s arm with a digital watch face reading 6:30pm. There are several prominent splatters of confectioners sugar on the watch face.

Confectioners sugar is just kitchen glitter, I swear. I thought I had gotten it all but nope!

Think I might do a #TheWheelOfTime rewatch to work out my feelings… on Apple TV, since I promptly cancelled my ad-free Prime subscription.
