The solution is not to drag everyone down. Teachers deserve to get paid more but their pay comes mostly from local property taxes instead of a trillion dollar company that owns a third of all media.

Until the chemicals get too expensive and injecting them is too time consuming so they just switch to using air tight rooms and toxic gas.


It’s the weirdest complaint to me too because the only character that it really seems like we know has to be white is Rand and that’s only because typically only white people have red hair.
When I first read it I thought him being singled out as a white guy with red hair and that being so notable probably meant that tall redheaded white dudes are kind of rare around these parts. People guessed his ethnicity just by looking at him too.
The idea that everyone else would be some other shade of skin makes perfect fucking sense in that context.
I don’t like the way that they broke the rules of magic. It changes the stakes in ways that make the story less compelling but all of the racist and sexist nonsense is pathetic and sad. I’m not sure how people could read 14 of these books and come away thinking, “men are like this and women are like that” or some shit.


All Rafe cared about were ginger ninjas. Everything else was secondary to that.
Don’t get me wrong he also did poorly at that but it had his attention.


I just wanted to see Dumais Wells. That’s all.
The trailer alone for it would have soaked my undies.
Fade to black The lull roar of combat and screams of battle, the screen fades in on the face of Mazrim Taim “Asha’man…” The screen flickers to the a group of men bursting with viscous black and red fibers of light crawling into the ground.
“Kill”
The screen goes black and from a distance the ripple passing through the Earth rises to wash fighters from the battle field.
There is no fight. There is only the one power and true terror. A 5-second trailer would have done it. I wanted that and they took it from me.
I’m so disappointed. "


Also, If I understand it correctly it’s also called this because caulking requires jamming pitch soaked rope into the joints so it’s still about rope!


Paid : give money for
Payed: nautical term meaning to let out some slack on the rope or to cover the deck in tar/pitch for sealing it


That’s why we gave them nukes, so we could continue to act with impunity and deflect all of the guilt onto a madman that nobody wants to challenge because he claims he’s on a mission from God.
All of us are expendable in his mission.


People will lose their jobs to AI in the same way that lumberjacks lose their job to forest fires.
Really sorry about the multipost. Don’t know how that happened. Sorry to blow up your mailbox and again with this message.
