Hats off to Ramin Djawadi scoring last night’s episode. I thought the score in last night’s episode was amazing. Even the recap had it’s own special flair to it musically.

I said this above, but apparently there were Martell and Tyrell ships in Dany’s fleet, so a lot of time passed.
Lmao, King wrote a 7-book series, dude. It’s called The Dark Tower. Publication dates: 1982, 1987, 1991, 1997, 2003, 2004, 2004 and a related book in 2012. There were some long gaps in there, but then he was in a hit and run, and after he recovered from that he started to be afraid he’d die before he finished them.…
Whereas Martin’s ending will have no payoff simply because he’ll be dead before it ever gets written.
There’s way to much of a consistent style in his work for them to have been written by more than one person.
Definitely. King has habits from the days where writing vs not writing was the difference between keeping the lights on or not. His writing actually suffers if he tries a more leisurely pace, which is why he went back to more strenuous deadlines.
Counterpoint: Martin’s writing isn’t what people make it out to be either.
From the video I think George has a lot more worry about how people view him as a writer and disappointing them with future pieces of work. At this point I suspect that he’s been crippled by self doubt and his own success. He’s terrified that his next book will be crap.
Except that they thought they were picking on the little guy, the poor washed up former “wrestler” who couldn’t (afford to) fight back. They just didn’t know that the little guy would get help from someone much stronger.
I get the feeling most of the editors at Gawker are very child-like and naive . Somehow they don’t really grasp that posting things on the internet can have real world repercussions.
“Tomorrow Thiel could wake up, decide he hates Brits, and destroy The Guardian.”
... . . . so don’t create any means for them to litigate you with. Not so hard, really!
People’s personal lives are not news.
This would be a clue that Gawker is punching waaaaaaaay above its weight.
It is fascinating to watch though. Like watching a bully bitch about the new goodie two shoes golden glove transplant that told him if he saw him bullying another kid he was going to use he head as a punching bag. “That guys such I dick. Where the fuck’s Pomona anyways? I bet it sucks!”
Thiel committed no crime, no matter how questionable his line of behavior was.
A better tack for gizmodo, gawker, et al would be to admit defeat, admit that you’ve made mistakes - and own them - and then move the fuck on.
Sorry Gawker, you guys aren’t journalists being wronged. You’re a bunch of unethical muckrakers and you managed to piss off the wrong person...
Wow, this might be the first time I have agreed with Zuck!
I am getting sick of the pile on to oust people from positions for disagreeing with them on some crap. Gawker acted as unquestionable dickheads to Thiel, He had every legal right to retaliate the way he did. And Gawker is a way more powerful voice than some…
If you can’t parse out the false equivalence between raping a child and suing Gawker then I don’t know what to tell you.
