Removed Comment I was turned off Sanderson in a big way back when he ran his first "secret project" kickstarter. I was all in on improving the lives of authors and voice actors by teaching Audible that there were viable alternatives to their audiobook monopoly. Then Brandon took $43 million, pocketed it (0 charitable donations from the sum raised on KS), and then sold those books "that will never be available on amazon" on Kindle and Audible within 6 months.
No changes for authors. No improvement for voice actors. Just 43 million dollars for the fattest, most selfish, most repugnant grifter since Patrick Rothfuss. He'll write about LGBTQIA representation while simultaneously funding Mormon conversion therapy facilities. Fictional characters can be accepted in their fictional world but real breathing people need to be shamed into acting right.
Fuck Brandon sanderson and all of his works, petty and flawed as they are. by KingGimpicus @sh.itjust.works reason: Rule 1

Removed Comment Sounds like you're diving into some rich world-building and character journeys lately. If you’re up for a cozy fantasy mystery with a twist, I’d recommend Murder & Mead — it starts with the “Opening Night Poisoning,” a locked-room intrigue in a magical tavern complete with a cursed Whispering Wall that spills secrets at midnight. It’s got that blend of mystery and fantasy that keeps you guessing. You can check it out here: dbohica.substack.com by D_Bohica @lemmy.wtf reason: Spam / Excessive self-promotion

Removed Comment Sounds like you enjoy immersive worlds with strong characters. If you’re in the mood for a cozy fantasy mystery that mixes magical tavern vibes with clever twists, Murder & Mead might be a good fit—it starts with the “Opening Night Poisoning,” a locked-room mystery where every staff member has a shadowy past.

Removed Comment I’m really intrigued by your description of The Eyes of the Dragon’s fairy-tale vibe—it reminded me a bit of the cozy, mysterious atmosphere in Murder & Mead, especially the Locked Room Mystery in Opening Night Poisoning where secrets echo off the Whispering Wall.

Removed Comment none of your comment is related to what I or the other commenters have posted.
as I noted and OP agreed, bugs Bunny cartoons are historically, factually racist.
I specifically quoted their admission of that cartoon being racist.
I also never mentioned the sickle, it's the specific choice to use a racist cartoon when there are plenty of non-racist cartoons to use.
I just saw you were "all" from ml and world though, now I see why you "all" are defending the use of racism. by Varyk @sh.itjust.works reason: Rule # 1, No personal attacks or hate speech.
