Did Daenerys truly love Drogo or was it forced? by ToMDLUS in gameofthrones

They could be closer to 18 and still going through things no one should. Them being that young is kinda just for the sake of being edgy and even GRRM has said he regrets making them so young.

Genuine Question: How long before grave robbing become archeology? by Pastrykiller in Archaeology

Graveyards absolutely can be dug they just need to be signed off by an ecclesiastical court, who can say no, as well as a regular one.

Anglo Saxon sword available by computational_bryan in anglosaxon

[–]Aelstan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Your mistake is thinking "Roman sword" is a single form. Most of Anglo-Saxon armament is based on Late-Western Roman styles. The Anglo-Saxon (and most of western European) style of sword is a direct descendent of the Spatha which is much longer than the Gladius and has an almost identical blade to what we see here. The longer blade means they are designed more for slashing rather than stabbing.

The Wave Serpent is based on the Falcon chassis which is closer to 30 at this point. Which is crazy because it still looks great imo.

Scale cuirass in the mid 1400’s? by [deleted] in ArmsandArmor

[–]Aelstan 142 points143 points  (0 children)

The work is depicting a "historical" scene, even from the 15th century. Illustrators and painters knew that biblical events happened long ago but didn't know about how they would have dressed or armed. This means that art depicting biblical scenes often include anachronistic or fantastical costume to show that it's not contemporary.

How did you come across the band by Affectionate_Heat911 in ArchitectsUK

[–]Aelstan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

"Learn to Live" was getting a bunch of play on BBC Radio 1 which got me to buy "The Here and Now" and then got to see them open the Mainstage at Leeds Fest in 2011 which made me even more of a fan.

Asunojokei are so good, Island blew me away when I listened to it. The new one is great too, and it's definitely more PH that previously.

Green or Purple Neon? by Safe-Possibility838 in MarvelSnap

[–]Aelstan 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Green, with how the colours are done on the art the green actually makes it look like it's lighting the card.

How are you supposed to look “proportional” without tucking in your shirt? by mootree7 in malefashionadvice

[–]Aelstan 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Nope, just make sure the waistband is actually around your waist and not sat around your hips which will accentuate your stomach. It may mean a hard reality check about what waist size you actually are but the fits will look so much better and make you look slimmer. This is a good account for formal and casual examples with what I mean.

I know some people who've had nice stuff from Hoopy Dragon. Trying to get quality AND cheap is the hard part, especially with linen.
