I don't know of any dedicated thread for good graphs and charts, so here, have something pretty well done:

Ragnar34 posted:It's also a misunderstanding of Sanderson's soft-hard magic continuum, which was never meant for any of this, but maybe I only think that because I refuse to read it thoroughly. Offhand it looks like another STEMlord is trying to use familiar frameworks for media criticism without ever wondering why no one's ever thought of that before, sort of like your grandparents watching your favorite comedy TV and laughing at the wrong parts, but I feel like that kind of person would know a silly idea once they saw it on a graph in front of them. Like whenever I finally manage to put an idea into words and realize it's really stupid. I used to drink at the same poo poo bar as Sanderson in the mid aughts to 2011 or so, and I promise you it’s not being stretched further than he normally speaks of himself and literature as a whole.

oh then lol, Brandon Sanderson alt spotted. I was mostly going by what he said in his YouTube lectures about writing fantasy, where he seemed relatively cautious about what his scale is and isn't useful for.

Lol he's a mormon and treats characters drinking alcohol in the way an alien would describe it, he's never drunk booze in his life. Tunicate has a new favorite as of 00:30 on Dec 31, 2022 |

A different author was the person I’m thinking of. I don’t read fantasy, wasn’t sober at the time, and didn’t have a mutual respect for this guy so I always mix them up.

Scarodactyl posted:That was a good episode of Farscape. It was a Season One episode. They're all, uh. Ehh. They were finding their feet, y'know? My favorite part of that episode is how you, the viewer, are wondering exactly how the characters will be clued in, and then suddenly some people grab John off the street and shove a giant white worm into his belly button. "TELL NO ONE OF THIS." And toss him back onto the street. This is, I believe, also the episode where it's discovered that if Rygel eats certain foods, his urine becomes hypergolic.

Sagebrush posted:Rats are pretty smart. Maybe they realize it's stupid Nah, there's some studies showing that rats can and will run themselves to death even if food is plentiful and using the wheel is not required. I'm guessing the wheel size and location (and all the other factors in a natural environment) was an issue.
