They're strangely similar. Broody sperg geniuses.

2018-10-09 01:11:06 UTC  

I have it on DVD

2018-10-09 01:11:09 UTC  

really good series

2018-10-09 01:11:13 UTC  

GRRM doesn't have to work for a living anymore, he's been writing short novels and going to conventions. He hates the main storyline now. Best case scenario is like LOTR where he gives his unedited work to someone competent when he dies to give us a good ending

2018-10-09 01:11:54 UTC  

Wheel of Time would have been great if it was shorter

2018-10-09 01:11:59 UTC  

I think he's got manuscripts done but realized that in his sick (and incredibly entertaining) process of subverting the European heroic story, he wrote himself into a knot he can't untie

2018-10-09 01:12:53 UTC  

@Patrick True. He grew up poor and nerdy in Bayonne, NJ. Had shit luck with feminist GFs, labored in obscurity writing sci-fi for his life. Now he's a wealthy celebrity. It's sad, and I don't approve him letting another man (((HBO))) raise his child (he has no real children), but one can understand how it happens.

@Kingfish The Poz Button episode on GoT is really good. They mention Stannis being the closest thing to an Indo-European king hero.

2018-10-09 01:13:28 UTC  

Yeah I've listened to it

2018-10-09 01:13:35 UTC  

really well thought out episode

2018-10-09 01:14:06 UTC  

Stannis is the only character who (in the books) embodies the tropes of heroism and duty

2018-10-09 01:14:26 UTC  

by doing what they did in the show they sabotaged him.

2018-10-09 01:14:26 UTC  

Jon doesn't?

2018-10-09 01:15:05 UTC  

Eh honestly I suppose, but he's more like the guy who was special from the start

2018-10-09 01:15:22 UTC  

true. He's a 'secret chosen one'

2018-10-09 01:16:41 UTC  

I'd argue he's also in the television series submitted himself as a hero to who the Showrunners see as their hero

2018-10-09 01:17:18 UTC  

Yeah. Daenerys is not *my* hero, that's for sure.

2018-10-09 01:17:46 UTC  

She's a bit of a dumb thot

2018-10-09 01:17:54 UTC  

yeah certainly. She's a weak character in the books, and a terrible show character.

2018-10-09 01:23:57 UTC  

I for one, am proudly full GoT bugman. I just went to the live concert, sat in the front row, and met the damn composer. And yep, my vote was always for Stannis, the One True King.

2018-10-09 01:24:42 UTC  

I wonder if the dissident Right / pro-whites are usually pro-Stannis... 🤔

2018-10-09 01:24:59 UTC  

It seems so

2018-10-09 01:25:17 UTC  

Probably so - he's all for order and discipline.

2018-10-09 01:25:24 UTC  

The Methnostate crowd maybe likes Euron. I wouldn't bother asking.

2018-10-09 01:25:31 UTC  

Haha

2018-10-09 01:50:40 UTC  

@Madbent I'm out of the loop a few seasons but the fire god seems pretty Abrahamic

2018-10-09 01:51:01 UTC  

Or whatever the red colored god Stannis serves is

2018-10-09 01:52:03 UTC  

@Logan Zorastrian, I'd say.

2018-10-09 01:52:13 UTC  

The Faith of the Seven is the faux-Catholicism.

2018-10-09 01:52:42 UTC  

@Logan The 'Lord of Light' vs the unnamed dark god is the closest that universe has to an Abrahamic religion.

Moly's gettin' in on the livstream game: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=il2kxwtuVhQ?vq=hd1080

@Matthias Yeah, Patriot Peer's gonna be YUGE. Can't help but think that it's gonna be a strong avenue for recruitment...

She ain't wrong...

2018-10-09 02:02:37 UTC  

@Asatru Artist - MD Of course not! She's right!

2018-10-09 02:02:45 UTC  

Oh, God. Moly just described Lady Gaga as being extremely talented, and having a great singing voice...

2018-10-09 02:02:51 UTC  

I'm stoked that more r_tD readers will check out RedIce

2018-10-09 02:03:29 UTC  

Couldn't do anymore. Had to turn him off.

2018-10-09 02:04:08 UTC  

Lady Gaga is an avatar of Weimar

@Wood-Ape - OK/MN Steak dresses aren't wholesome? 🤔
