His whole story is about finding meaning after disability. The story doesn’t hold back on the hard truths, it’s honest: yes it sucks, yes it’s hard, life isn’t going to be what you thought it was and you can’t do what others can do and what you wanted. But there is still so much you can do.

I 100% agree. But I think he’ll be happiest if he can finish his legacy on his own terms.

He is! He looks happy.

And a happy George is a writing George and a writing George…

In particular your ML and/or materialist lens to ASOIAF is delightful and I would like much more of it.

I’m not mad at the Marxist-Leninism, but for the record I’m here for Gendry discussion and would like more of it.

Oh yeah my previous DnD character was kind of an A New Hope Anakin. Wide eyed naive impatient do-gooder

Nah I get that, he grows into his own.

My current DnD player is basically Han Solo and it’s fun af to play.

“Me I do it for the money! What’s in it for me?!” (Secretly will do the right thing anyways)

The Andor characters really feel like a head and shoulders above the rest of Star Wars for me.

I love Han Solo. And for the 80s I think they did a good job of making Leia/ Carrie Fisher a badass. But imagine what we could do with that character in 2025.

The Citadel sells dead bodies to The Others.

I love when student journalists break a crazy story, especially about their own school. This one is extraordinarily macabre. www.uscannenbergmedia.com/2025/10/01/u...

USC sold dead bodies to U.S. military to train IDF medical personnel

A review of seven years’ worth of contracts unveiled more than $860,000 to use cadavers in surgical trainings involving the Israeli Defense Forces.

Why would there be such an economic disparity? Wouldn’t old timey Targ kings with dragons try to get a piece of it?

Hashara is Canon @hashara.bsky.social · 13d

I don’t feel like i understand the relationship between Essos and Westeros.

Essos is way more populated, richer, and seems to have a more mercantilist/early renaissance economy than Westeros…

But there’s also Dothraki khalesars ravaging cities?

Pirates infest the southern coast of the main continent, preying on that trade route.

The bugbears and hobgoblins lining islands in the north east make their living as Whalers.

There’s a really lucrative trade route running whale oil <-> dwarven steel.

The Elves probably live in that northern peninsula, connected to the main continent but trying not to be.

There’s three or four human countries on that main continent.

Kinda like Middle Earth.

But watch out. That light blue inland waterway would be super warm water.

Warm water = gigantic scary sea reptiles like mosasaurus. (This is true) It’s a short voyage but a dangerous one.

Gods I’ve been doing it for the last 50 minutes.

The continent that’s basically just the Rockies, Sierras, and Cascades would be where the dwarves live. Mountain dwarves in the mountains (obv) and hill dwarves in the valleys.

They’d supply nearly all the precious metals and iron for the world

Yall ever stare at a map of Cretaceous North America and think it would be an awesome fantasy DnD world?

Sarah Taber @sarahtaber.bsky.social · 14d

Farm fact: the South is famous for clayey red soil, but a lot of it is actually... sand. Like beach sand. See the yellow on the map here.

Why? It IS beach sand. That's where the shoreline was during the Cretaceous.

Soil map of the US. The Southeast has a big wide strip of yellow (map legend for sand) that wraps around the coast & goes 100-200 miles inland.

Map of North America during the Cretaceous. Most people pay attention to the western interior seaway, but a lot of the east coast was underwater.
