So...not looking back at the previous pages at the mere mention of spoilers. Soooo anything non-datamining happening? It's not long now peeps. I can almost taste the DLC...(tastes a bit like edam cheese...but that could just be residue from the sandwich I ate. It's hard to tell at times.)
The DLC will taste like Chocolate Crystal Grace donuts.
Let me know when it starts to taste like despair
Oh thank the Creators that the spoiler has been removed prior to me seeing to post.
Should I get away from the forums to avoid spoilers? @_@
I want it to taste like this.
I loveeeeeeeeeee that chocolate

I feel like I'm missing out not reading Doughnut Rebel. Anyone got a link handy?
(although if it's smut them I'm not really interested).

No smut, it's the cutest, most fluffery Solas fic out there.
But it will make you crave donuts.

Nope, no smut (and hopefully nothing Message Sent style to come). It's cute.

edit: 
You guys are making me want donuts again. It doesn't help my friend posted a selfie with a big, pink donut to Facebook this morning. 
and hopefully nothing Message Sent style to come
Gods, I can't even imagine smut showing up in Doughnut Rebel. I like smut but it would be so out of place, it would look kinda ridiculous.
(But if the author ever adds some gentle descriptions hinting at tender lovemaking, I won't complain.)
I'm taking you guys with me on errands today.
Are you getting groceries? I enjoy the grocery shopping.

Can never be too careful, I guess. Message Sent started off all flirty and cute, though sexual tension was there, sure. Either way. I'm fine with suggestion, degrees of touching and things at roughly the level I write them, I suppose.
I just googled "doughnut rebel" and found this.
Oh my.
Oh...my. 
I'm really glad there are no fancy donut shops around here, just Dunkin Donuts, which I can avoid. I had one of their pumpkin ones on Wednesday.

There's a Wawa right next to my lab. (Do they have Wawa up in NY?) Constant temptation. I'm actually surprised I don't get donuts every time a new chapter comes out.
Edit: Top Solas. Have some fluffery Solas from YukiSamui.

I'm sitting here eating lunch with my two year old daughter and I clicked that link.
Now she is demanding doughnuts......
Anyway....I guess we should all be happy we made it to the weekend with some sanity!
Bravo everyone.

Nope, none up here, but I've been a lot growing up since my great grandma lived at the south tip of NJ and we'd spend summers. A lot of NJ/PA foods finally made it up here in the past decade or so (I can get my birch beer and gingersnaps) but I still cannot find those Tastykake pies unless I travel (which are my junky pleasure).

I live pretty much next door to a Tim Horton's. And right now they have Nutella filled dougnuts.
It is miserable walking by there and not stopping everyday.

Glad you can enjoy the ginger snaps, they're some of my favorite sweets!
QFT.
More than that, it's clear the writers aren't simply "lore-junkies" of their created world, but deeply and broadly invested in our own. Scratch the surface, and you realize the DA universe is an incredible feat of syncretism, pulling in ideas from a staggering range of fields. String theory, Jungian psychology, comparative mythology, Campbellian theory, evolutionary psychology, medieval history, gnosticism, quantum physics... I could write pages pointing out themes and parallels they manage to weave into the lore and barely make headway.
It's a theory-crafter's motherlode, though (a bit counter-intuitively) that's why I tend to keep mine in my head. Having to explain that X makes sense, but requires familiarity with A, B, C, and some obscure part of D is daunting, particularly when you then need to get through X, Y and Z to get into the in-game implications.
Well, that's why perspective is important. Also important is not to confuse abstract influence and themes with concrete parallels. We can easily end up focusing too closely on one piece and end up missing the rest of the puzzle. I agree The Fade itself has many themes related to psychology (mainly jungian) while Evolutionary psychology could be applied to the Elvhen people. Comparative Mythology seems ripe in any culture we've encountered. The Monomyth is extremely broad and can be applied in most interesting stories
All of these themes however have very limited value because of the "clash". Reality vs. Fantasy. Magic is what changes everything, the "invariable" constant, which is why we can't reason in scientific terms or assume anything concrete based on similarities alone. That's also what I think makes it so interesting. Anyways, I'm glad you also like discussing lore.

Omigod, that looks like heaven. 
EDIT: Now you're making me want to buy donuts tomorrow...
