They also picked the most unsexy author to finish it after Robert Jordan died, mormon and roommate to Ken Jennings, Brandon Sanderson

It's deeply funny that they made that show completely zoomer-media unsexy because it was Robert Jordan's long form wank fodder to begin with. There's a whole book about spanking, ffs

there has been exactly one butt on the show so far -- they threw in a shot of Lan's rear end in ep 1. My wife says it was a smart move because the vast majority of episode 1 viewers will be couples with skeptical girlfriends who need to be "hooked," kind of the inverse of how episode 1 of Orange Is The New Black had like 500% more titties in it than any other episode

Comedy option plays out like this:

Breyer retires in August. Congress goes on recess on Aug 8 to Sep 5. They have until Sept 26 passes by without a confirmation vote. Senate goes into recess again and the democrats try to schedule a vote for mid october, but Manchin and or Sinema say no it's too close to the election the people should have a say. Democrats get completely bodied and lose the Senate. In a rare bout of competence Schumer says we should push on anyway and hold the confirmation vote in the lame duck session, but again Manchin and/or Sinema say they won't vote for the nominee to due to decorum reasons and they don't seat anyone before the start of hte new congress.

New congress rolls in and says lol gently caress you and the democrats use "Republicans refused to give us a vote on Associate Justice Liz Cheney!!" as a rallying cry for the next 2 years to get out the vote.

President Trump nominates Frank Lindell to the court and the vote is successful

Comedy option? This is what is going to happen 100%.

I dunno. It's been decades since I read the series. But I remember there was a book where one (more?) of the women went to not-japan, and had to wear a collar and get spanked for the entire thing. I wanna say it was somewhere in books 8-10, cause I don't think I ever made it past that.

Also Rand gets locked in a trunk by a bunch of dominatrixes for like 300 pages.

The whole series is rife with BDSM stuff. Hell, in the show Moiraine is like "I was having trouble with my college homework, but you know what helped? An older lady came to my room at night, tied me up, and beat me until one night I just... got it." So a lot of that stuff is left in the show it's just not titillating at all which is deeply funny for books that were typed one handed

bahahaha I’m only halfway into book three, I guess I’m still before all of that (though there has been the whole deeply uncomfortable introduction of the Seanchan dominatrix society that is totally-not-China/japan)

fantasy authors are so deeply weird

This garbage administration is absolutely trying to burn the world down. Between their worse than Trump environmental policies and trying to poke a nuclear power into a responce I can't think of any other reason at this point other than intentional malice.

whoever he nominates, however good or bad they are, will never get confirmed until the power has swung back to the republicans.

It's going to be either Childs or Kruger, since they're both conservative. Childs is the wildcard and I'm basing it on the bipartisanship angle and also Biden just signing off when he sees the word child
