I think it's a similar ending he has in mind, but a better route.

I presume that the Targaryn who has taken Storm's End topples Cersei (who has to get killed by Jamie) and takes King's Landing, and having Dany go off at the new King who is less a villain helps sell the fall into madness which ends with Jon being a Queen Slayer.

Don't know how Bran gets there though, him waring someone and that person getting the throne could make sense.

I'm most miffed about not getting to see what happens with Stoneheart as well as Euron and other at sea Greyjoys.

Disconnect it from the network and factory reset it.

That stopped mine showing me adverts. Won't stand adverts from a device I've paid to bring into my home.

Only had to do that because I checked to see if the "download subtitles" feature would actually work.

SpoilerIt didn't.

Alternate reading: stop running about and breaking the hearts of the unmarried freewomen, if you're shagging her, do it properly and above board.

Medieval era was, alas, pretty poor on women's rights and slavery was taken for granted. I don't think you'll find any slavery where rape was in practice forbidden.

The best solution for the people of the PRC and the State of Taiwan (RoC), and to undercut US imperial goals in the Asian Pacific is for the PRC to recognise an indepent Taiwan, in return for not being excluded from semi conductors and having free passage through territorial waters (and throw in recognition of PRC claims in South China Sea if you like).

Without the threat of invasion and a normalisation of ties both will help both economically and socially, and the shared cultural links will pull them together over time; and it ties the US's hands in meddling.

I think it's a little racist to remove agency from people who've made moves equally validly explained as self-defence and preservation against a hostile invader.

for example, the very idea of a "Brown comma" might more readily resonate with the concept of the Brown note.

Whoever it was, well played.

I'll give you the story as I can recall it...

The trip was reliving the person's life from top to bottom, and at various points hearing huge applause or boos or an emotional rection of some kind, and turning round and seeing that they were on the set of "This Was Your Life" with a huge studio audience. The presenter would give a prize, joke or something and ask some questions which led back to reliving their life and soon forget about the "show" until the next time the crowd went wild. It is said it felt like a lifetime, I don't know how long the trip lasted in measured time.

Danger Mouse (Repeats of the Original)

Doctor Who (Pertwee and Baker)

Black Adder (all of it, remember being about 12 and my parents telling me to come and watch it with them)

... I don't like gravy, or poorly readable charts.

Tudi-Voice, Taiwan - Taiwanese modern folk stuff.

Florent Vollant, Canada - interesting indigenous culture based music.

Mulatu Astatke, Ethiopia - Jazz from the 60s and 70s.

Altın Gün, Türkiye/The Netherlands - modern Anatolian psych sounds.

Gwenno, Wales - Gaelic folktronica.

FFX-2 has a great battle system, and job based FFs were always the most rewarding to play.

XIII was the point I just decided I didn't care any more. (Also, there's no way that XIII gets to count as retro already, right?)

As one of a leftwing persuasion, it's our pleasure to see rent free accommodation out in the world.
