But the Targaryens who came from Old Valyria all those years ago conquered by being notoriously lenient with those who chose to support them, not by burning everyone, even the innocent. The Tyrells and the Tullys, for instance, are both in the positions they’re in because Aegon the Conqueror granted them their titles…

Right, not in her eyes. So, she would have burned the city of Astapor, whose masters were attacking her, and innocent people would have suffered for it. But she didn’t burn Astapor after it surrendered to her. She didn’t burn Yunkai after it surrendered to her. And she didn’t have to be talked out of those decisions.…

“If you thought that turn on Game of Thrones felt rushed, surprising, or like it came out of nowhere...you haven’t been paying attention.”

Close but not quite. Think of it more of a coup by wealthy slave-having landowners resentful that any portion of their wealth might not be theres in totality, and who were equally angry that Royal Treaties with First Nations people prevented from appropriating their land en-masse. So they orchestrated a coup to depose…

In fact, the United States, where I live, was founded after waging a war against a king that the colonists felt was a tyrant.

This is a blog. If we wanted to watch videos we’d be on Youtube.

The show had declined in quality since diverging from the books, but the end of the Night King really tarnished the entire series. The build up of the white walkers over the last seven seasons seems wasted as does the lore behind them. I’m not sure what the point of Bran was except to tell John who he was & to get a…

911s don’t count. Since day 1, any service to one goes something like this:

By “widespread adoption of face ID” do you mean forced adoption?

Pontiac (or Saturn), and kill off Buick.

Exactly. This isn’t the fault of “the media”. This is Pewdiepie’s fault, plain and simple, because he keeps flirting with the White Supremacists and Neo-Nazi’s that make up the “alt-right”. The fact that he refuses to acknowledge his own culpability shows that he simply doesn’t get it, and that he’ll keep doing the…

Lol exactly. The Kappa platform was a huge deal in the 2006-era. I still can’t decide to this day if I preferred the look of the Saturn Sky or this. Either way, between the Solstice GXP and the Sky Redline, I would have been very happy but sadly I was a university-going poor student at the time. 

Mercedes doesn’t sell cars. They build them. Dealerships sell car.

I don’t understand people who buy (sports) cars in primer/battleship grey.

Yeah, pretty much. For that kind of coin I could afford to strip out a pretty fast street car and modify it, and still buy a Continental with money left over. My track car would be a better track car, and my comfy car would be a better daily driver.

Honestly, I feel like the buyers of these cars would have more fun with a stripped/prepped Miata and a normal M3 instead of paying for the CS M3
