@LeCuzzy @BarneyFlames Ok cool so what class do they belong to
English
Famously when Americans discovered oil on their ranches and farms, they decided to keep it in the ground and not develop it.
Oh wait, Americans literally did the opposite, starting to think retarded peasants might not have a good handle on American History.
Greg Cello@dissidntdad
another amazing aspect of this is the juxtaposition of the two parties. one is the deeply rooted American, who stands for everything that America believed in since its founding. the other is the exact opposite, a faceless, rootless fortune 100 tech giant with no ties to the land, no respect for tradition, and no purpose beyond profit and endless expansion.
English
@grindafrathjis @BarneyFlames The land is being overvalued by the tech company because they’re trying to buy them out, obviously.
English
@LeCuzzy @BarneyFlames What class does someone who owns 26 million USD of farmland belong to
English
@JohnathanKorkie @MegaBaumTV @sunfyred I think that Roberts death would be looked at historically more as the start of the War of the 5 Kings than anything.
English
@LeCuzzy @MegaBaumTV @sunfyred I think Arya Sansa Bran and Jon are being setting up to accomplish more than Brandon. But will also be looked at fondly because of Ned. And neds death is looked at as the start of the war of the 5 kings on top of that
English
if we, as a society, come to the opinion that the elderly should have a smaller piece of the economic pie, the progressive way to do that is obvioudly to start cutting the welfare program that primarily benefits wealthy seniors (tax free retirement accounts)
Matt Bruenig@MattBruenig
WaPo wants to create a Social Security marriage penalty. They arrive at this figure by adding two max SS benefits for those who retire 5+ years into their SS retirement window. No individual is getting anywhere near this amount.
English
@grindafrathjis @BarneyFlames No they don’t. The United States military is mostly middle class.

@BarneyFlames The "retarded peasants" fight your wars and you need their votes

@EPM106 It’s a little dumb that Tywin doesn’t press further or have her imprisoned immediately if he suspects she’s northern highborn lol
English
obviously not but i do see people writing off this plotline as another dumb D&D addition and i fear it is genuinely a really smart adaptational change
𝓳𝓸𝓼𝓱🧸@Joshwydd_
Do you think Tywin knew who she was?
English
@thhouseofblack Not irritating or annoying except for starting the collapse of his dynasty erratically.
English
@PhyrexianP @memeticsisyphus Or, at least, it won't be particularly associated with Dubya.
English
@PhyrexianP @memeticsisyphus x.com/memeticsisyphu…
I think OP also doesn't think 9/11 will be particularly remembered a century from now.
memetic_sisyphus@memeticsisyphus
A century from now the B history student will remember Trump did those three things, the A student will remember he had non-consecutive terms, was impeached twice, was the president when covid struck, and used to work in real estate/ entertainment. Obama will be the black president, no one will know what he actually did as president, no one will remember Biden, it will be like Garfield or Tyler, Bush W might be remembered for 9/11 and the GoT, Clinton will be forgotten, Bush Sr will be forgotten, Reagan has then end of the Cold War. Very few legacies stick.
English
“I’m sorry tired of living through historic events!” Not really, most of the daily news cycle won’t live past the week, even the big stuff like war or covid will be a small footnote in history books, at least the type you read in school.
Trump will be remembered for three things:
1) founding the space force
2) reviving nuclear technology in the U.S.
3) green lighting the Artemas missions that will return us to the moon and build our first foothold on another planetary body

Nuclear energy is the future.

@PhyrexianP @memeticsisyphus ≈twice as many people as a percentage of the population died from the Spanish flu.
There is a significant number of people today who lived through COVID who talk about it as a Biden era event, not a Trump one.
English
@LeCuzzy @memeticsisyphus The Spanish Flu was less impactful than COVID was from a society disruption standpoint. Additionally everything in the electronic era will be better remembered because of all the documentation is in a more digestible and available format.
English
@PhyrexianP @memeticsisyphus Nobody normal could tell you who the President was during the Spanish Flu.
English
@memeticsisyphus I dont think COVID will escape the history books and will be the largest part of his legacy unless he totally screws the pooch in Iran and turns it into a long, drawn out war.
The items you list here are probably going away as soon as a Democrat takes office.
English
@CatotheE @williams_e77333 @TheSriber @ForTullos Aerys I was absolutely a puppet of Bloodraven, I can understand arguments against the others, but basically all we know about Aerys I’s reign is that Bloodraven did everything.
English
English
I'm in the mood for another hot take
The best situation for Westeros would be Renly as king and Stannis as his hand.
Obviously it would never happen but it would be best.
English
@broccolington @scrunkoelbunko @illjoy_ RR started in 282, Ned was born in 263, AGOT takes place from 297-299. Ned would be 19ish in 282 and 35-36 when he died.
English
@scrunkoelbunko @illjoy_ Iirc he was 36 when he died and wasn't bobby b's rebellion 14 years before the main story starts
English
This is a really popular sentiment and I don’t know if I agree because I think the subjective reflection on the events that transpired constructed from various characters’ memories and dialogue is way more compelling than an objective retelling of the rebellion might be
𝓳𝓸𝓼𝓱🧸@Joshwydd_
We really need that “Robert’s Rebellion” spinoff,need to see how good Ned stark was.
English
@illjoy_ This is also true of the Dance, IMO, (maybe even the Blackfyre rebellions, too!)
There’s a reason these stories are conveyed to the reader in a certain way.
English
@mimodow93 @eyezcreems @agraybee BCS was built originally to quickly transition to the Saul Goodman character, the original conceit was not to focus as much on Jimmy McGill. That idea came later.
GIF
English
@eyezcreems @agraybee But BCS was built specifically for that reason! We already saw him as the latter
English
I'm going to admit something here: I'm not sure which shows actually have this structure. Maybe I've just been lucky.
Sandy Petersen 🪔@SandyofCthulhu
For those unaware, Surf Dracula is the single most accurate description of how our media has become mediocre. Don't forget it. You see it everywhere.
English
@finnan_walsh @mattxweltner Like you don’t even need subterfuge!! Stannis offers you to be his heir until a son is born, and it’s verrrry easy for that to never happen.
Throw in the plethora of religious revolts that would probably occur if he ever sat the iron throne and he is not going to live long imo.
English
@finnan_walsh @mattxweltner Stannis is like 33-34 by the War of 5 Kings with only one kid (after being married for ≈12 years) and apparently only takes Selyse to bed begrudgingly like once or twice a year (likely less if he’s king.) It is probable he would never father another child/son.
English
Renly probably would have been a fine king. Better than any Lannister, and I think his flexibility, charisma, and fevers PR strategy/vibe would have held the realm together decently well.
But he would be deeply destabilizing and a major net-negative…
Nikolaj🇺🇦🇵🇸@nikicaga
Yeah the whole "Renly is of no real substance" thing seems like clear cope to me I'm not sure what sort of King he'd be, but he was clearly pretty smart
English
English
@williams_e77333 @TheSriber @ForTullos Roberts reign is *remembered* as prosperous and good by most iirc, and that’s probably our best example of a figurehead King and a powerful Hand. Obviously the succession crisis and war after his death indicates that there are issues with this.
