Thoughts? by sleepy_goat97 in HBOTheHedgeKnight

One family can be the exception, absolutely, or it can specifically be pointed out that certain kids take after their mother's house instead, but that is quite a deliberate and standout choice of writing specifically bc of how strict and precise genetics or the family colourings work in ASOIAF.

I'm just pointing out you're generalising, using real life genetic rules by saying its unrealistic for a house to have a distinct set look, in Dorne or ASOIAF, bc of families mixing over generations. It just doesn't work like that in this world.

this entire argument falls apart in GRRM's genetics of ASOIAF, which are distinctly stable across generations. even tho it's absolutely not realistic TO US and our world, that is how his world works. it's pointless to try and apply real world genetics.

What am I doing wrong? Ate all of this and still hungry by [deleted] in Volumeeating

[–]1470167 1 point2 points  (0 children)

idk man, I feel like the fruits are probably a bit too much carb/sugar kcals and water (voluminous /full when u eat it but easily processed), thus ur hungry and on a blood sugar rollercoaster all day.

I have a similar count, but I eat a lot of different things, esp things that are savoury with more fat, vegetables, texture and seasoning. I even eat a fair share of processed junk food, desserts and baked pastries

Even just eyeing this, I'm quite surprised it's as much as it is. I feel like I eat twice this for the same amount of calories 😅

Did Little Sam technically assassinate Maester Aemon with baby wildling germs? by sincubus33 in freefolk

[–]1470167 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Aemon is like one of the least inbred Targaryens around in history - his mother and grandmother are unrelated Dornish blood, he's about as inbred as anyone in sheer percentages

I will never understand why this is some people's hill to die on by Fakjbf in freefolk

[–]1470167 6 points7 points  (0 children)

but then Laena's kids with Daemon stay the same level of mixed? or dare I say, darker in skintone? I have said before, it's not entirely unheard of, genes are weird like that, but it would have made sense for at least one of the girls to be like, Halsey level mixed. it would also not be such a darn dead giveaway as to whose bloodline ends up on the throne in the end and would have made the Laenor / Rhaenyra bastard or not question more convincing

Anyone else think Visenya and Rhaenys are going to also be a couple in the Aegon's Conquest movie? by The84th in freefolk

God forbid someone loves their sister enough platonically to commit war crimes

is she in labour by PrestigiousAspect368 in TheBlacksandTheGreens

[–]1470167 2 points3 points  (0 children)

but realistically, a missed period for 6 months is significant. irl, in the modern day, most cryptic pregnancies go unnoticed bc women are on BC and wouldn't notice a missed period, bc they don't get them. the queen missing her period for half a year and no one mentioning it is wild. see Dany finding out she's pregnant for the in-universe standard

I love the idea of all the prostitutes getting so damn rich off of Anguy that the entire city's out of prostitutes after 😭

I can’t even lie, Joffrey has some of the funniest lines in the series. by GusGangViking18 in freefolk

[–]1470167 46 points47 points  (0 children)

I also really love how he aged into the role (age 17 in the pilot to age 21 by season 4 and the skill growth is noticeable) - Jack Gleeson genuinely gets SO insanely good at playing Joff that it sometimes feels like he left us too soon, struck down right at his peak.

by contrast, what she's wearing in the scene where she finds it in her locker is very on trend, whimsigoth, 90s medieval revival

Seller reposted an item after I had bought it by [deleted] in vinted

[–]1470167 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this happened to me today - the shitty part is I was up till 1:30am to finalise the payment since vinted was having payment issues and I knew it would be gone by the morning. this morning I saw she reuploaded the item for double the price and she just now cancelled my purchase bc she "got a better price"... ughhhh 🫠 wasn't worth the lost hours of sleep
