I have one friend who reads theory and I am in the process of converting others, the first one was a raging liberal when I first met him but yea, all of my commie friends are people who I’ve converted

you should be in sales

LMAO, thank you comrade.

where do you suggest i start?

Just pick Eye of the world and don’t look back, the one prequel new spring is best read after the series, or like after book 7, since there are a lot of things that you will piece together from info from the main series.

but yeah, just pick Eye of the world and the next 13 books are just the sequels. It’s not a revolutionary piece of work but it’s damn well one of the most enjoyable reads I’ve ever had, helped me through tough times on multiple occasions.

I genuinely cannot recommend the series enough, the first book is heavy on the fellowship of the ring inspiration and is more or less a homage, but unique enough and very fun to read through, the second and third books are unique enough and more or less set the basic plotlines for all the characters for the rest of the series. The prose is honestly one of the better parts, it isn’t overtly flowery (I personally prefer more flowery prose but wot is an exception) but it just flows, there are flowery and verbose bits and he uses them really well throughout, makes the scenes hit harder when the prose gets flowery.

The world is heavily gendered and imo, there are parts that anyone can point out and say that’s misogynistic and they would be fair but i think that is just because of how gendered the world is and some cultures are going to be misogynistic, and i always felt that its just a reflection of jordan being really thorough. Though it does feel needlessly sexualizing at times, but might just be me nitpicking. The character work is genuinely the best in any piece of media i have seen, especially for most of the main cast.

The pacing from Books 1-3 is excellent, books 4-6 just fly while 7 and 8 are good, 9 and 10 are undeniably a slog, a problem with an author getting too enamoured with the world they created imo. one thing i cannot stress enough is how well jordan researched the cultures he is inspired by, the world building is just amazing and also the story itself is very realistic in the way how the politics revolve around everyone’s material interests.

I am re reading Wheel of Time right now and my veins are filled with hate for rafe judkins.

Pierce Brown is a vocal zionist… Just figured thats something you might want to know about comrade

Don’t think the troglodytes who usually read it will care either way.

Reading brain dead fantasy is a guilty pleasure of mine, so i have been reading this series called sun eater for the last week, but omg had to put it down because the author (fuck me for being into shit predominantly populated by white men) legit wrote about this society of socialists who dont have names and only use state approved phrases and where the communist government’s evil plan to replace the entire population with hermophrodite clones to remove gender inequality from society is discovered and spoiled by the hero. pretty fucking shite.

If i am not wrong Facebook’s current model does the opposite of this (so did most of the other LLMs) convert images to text to feed them to the model.

United States of America*

I HATE US I HATE US I HATE US I HATE US

Nehru’s Non-alignment movement is taught as this brilliant pioneering policy for third world countries while all it did was maintain the ruling class’ status quo in this country and try to fleece resources from both the sides even despite the fact that the west has always done the country wrong. Mother fuckers do not even mention the large number of communists that fought for this countries’ freedom or the rights of the minorities. This unprincipled beaurocratic government is the worst part of this country.

A fellow tarnished, and yeah, waiting for them to drop denuvo

Every single American that goes on and votes for Harris because the alternative is Trumpz deserves Trump, circumstance yada and all but as the rest of the world distances itself continuously from the falling empire more and more and the bourgeois class exploits the imperial land itself more and more to sustain they will have deserved it. No sympathy for liberals and genocide supporters

Man, NGL i greatly prefer the minimal aesthetics of the apps that i use right now. the chinese apps do not look all that different to the banking apps i have to use here and i fucking loathe them, can never get used to them and it just looks ugly.

This is almost cartoonish.

Hard agree on one piece being better than Naruto, I’ve just started binging one piece and can’t stop. I should’ve watched marineford in class

Descending ???

I just wish we can nail to the walls every iof soldier that entered palestine, every Israeli that blocked aid from reaching children

Biden IS racist, let’s not pretend that geriatric old fuck isn’t any less racist just because he doesn’t openly call for killing minorities. He only bombs them

Climate Change is proof enough even in isolation that the west is the most insidious evil to inhibit this planet. I am an atheist but I hope there is eternal torture for the crackers who decided to rather kill the future than cut down on their ultimately useless profit margins.
