This book is doing more for me than therapy. Maybe I should dump my therapist and just read JotC 🥲

Trying to get through this book again! St. John of the Cross remains my favorite Catholic writer, and interpreting his mysticism through the lens of advaita vedanta is truly fascinating. Also, despite its density, AoMC is such a beautifully written work.

Ivan's monologue on the sublimation of the Church into the State — such that this new entity not only encompasses legalistic proceduresn but the entire social character of man, rendering it thus obsolete as a "State" or a "Church" but rather transforms both into a new entity — really hits differently after fully grasping the ultimate aims of socialism.

can you tell i am obsessed fr

idk how much money i'd pay for someone to draw the sequence of smol pompey changing his outfit 4x, riding a white horse decked out with 10 pounds of bling bling while fantasizing about meeting sulla-senpai, only to find a drunk & sick old man 😭

CINNAMON BUN CARROT CAKE CANDY APPLE RAND AL'THOR 🥺🥺🥺

I'm starting to really like Faile. Perrin's boring af. The Aiel are awesome and carry all his chapters.

Rhuidean was one of the best arcs I have ever read, period. Rand going through the glass columns to see the past Age was... just wow. WOW. Loved it. Mat's own arc mirrors Odin's threefold death for wisdom... superbly done. Incredible.

Perrin and Faile have such an unhealthy relationship. I'm not sure if it's intended to be that way but like. Seriously. It makes reading their scenes so uncomfortable.

This book is starting to feel like Rand's harem anime and I honestly don't mind. So far Egwene (past), Elayne, Min, Berelain, and Lanfear all seem to want a piece of his peachy bottom. Ishamael *probably* does too, he just doesn't want to admit it LOL.

Rand is a cinnamon bun who needs a hug. Also Perrin and Mat... just smh. Light, are you his friends or not?
