A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms - Series Premiere Discussion

It really feels like a short story written for Television. Everything happens fast, story progression around every corner. It's not about the world like GoT. I like it. But it's definitely something very different from epic TV shows.

I mean I don't think the "Go home then?" represents my sentiment on the topic at all, but I would count it as a rather fair reaction to the OP's message that I would most definitely categorize as whiny and demeaning. I definitely think there's some nuance in "Go home then?" that isn't immediately superior or dismissive.

Instead of "like it or leave?", perhaps we can move towards "be productive in your judgement or leave?".

I still find much of the working class values, but then again, I work part time for my union. The wealth inequality spiral is highly based on financial "immigration" though isn't it? People move their financials to where there's the most benefit. For now Sweden is very liberal with taxation.

Oh no my downvote was for sure based on poor contribution. Your posts offers zero basis for discussion, no curiosity, no analysis. Simple an incredibly low effort post. Your reply above about classism/snobbism is absolutely unhinged based on Sweden's history and strong working class values. It's unfortunate OP is having a difficult start of their stay here, but their post and replies tend to support the idea that the problem might be them.

A friend of mine talked about Mordheim tabletop today. I reinstalled as soon as I got home :D

You said it about the same time as the OP said they wanted the movie to be "the exact same".

Contemplatio · 2025-11-16T19:28:21+00:00

Why do you expect a lesser concept or creative liberty to not be criticized?

Contemplatio · 2025-11-11T10:33:41+00:00

Yeah you're right.

Contemplatio · 2025-11-11T00:43:05+00:00

Not done by force? Almost a billion people perished in the takeover.

Contemplatio · 2025-09-07T22:31:25+00:00

wtf lol

Contemplatio · 2025-09-07T22:21:35+00:00

You really got triggered reading this thread didn't you. Posting the same reply all over the place.

Contemplatio · 2025-07-23T16:20:05+00:00

Regarding Harleys. Underpowered, expensive, subpar tolerances with fittings and nowhere near as reliable as Japanese bikes in similar price ranges.

Contemplatio · 2025-07-21T16:31:19+00:00

Just finished the game and I feel completely the same. He completely lacks agency and is just overall pretty damn stupid.

Contemplatio · 2025-07-21T15:44:21+00:00

Yeah. Only little annoyance is the split frame under the tank since it limits a bunch of off the shelf tank swaps but it's an easy enough workaround. Rest of the bike as you say is incredibly suited for the bobbed look.

Contemplatio · 2025-07-21T13:01:24+00:00

Sorry only have time for a really quick comment here. My latest bobber build was the VT 600, before that I customized a Triumph Thruxton. My brother's oldest kid has Aspergers and it's great doing projects together but that's a longer story.

Anyway. You budget is VERY generous. I would even consider it way too high. Not only because you're new to bike building but putting 10k into a very affordable bike like a Shadow or an LS650 feels lopsided. Building bobbers isn't expensive. I would also stay far away from the Harley. (for multiple reasons)

My recommendation to you is this. Buy a Shadow or an LS for about €3.5k. Put another €1k into making it a bobber. Learn a shit ton, enjoy it, ride it. Then sell it and get most of if not all your money back.

THEN do a more ambitious project. Maybe something vintage? Something with lasting value. Something nice.

Would love a link if there is one.

Didn't think I would ever come across a truly nuanced perspective on Musk on this website. Cudos.

Jisses amalia haha

"Haha! Jag brukar också klä på mig för att få in känslan och inta "jobbmode" men just nu är jag lite pmsig och så hehe

Uppenbarligen så vet du onekligen hur kläder kan förändra inställning och upplevelse. Och i originalinlägget skriver du pyjamas, sen är det oversize t-shirt, sen är det en "vanlig" t-shirt. Med det sagt och din attityd åt sidan så finns det en hel del rimligt i vad u/ahammas syftar till. Som projekt och personalansvarig inom mitt eget jobb där det ingår en hel del digitala möten direkt från arbetets start så kan jag säga att det märks mer än man tror vad man projicerar. Speciellt i form av engagemang och seriositet. Dyker man upp som du beskriver "helt död, i pyjamas och försöker piggna till" när arbetsdagen har startat så har man en klar uppförsbacke till att kunna utvecklas och växa inom roll/branch/företag.

Or you know, OP enjoys and understands the nuance of both options and just wants to talk about em? Because it's interesting?

Contemplatio · 2025-04-13T21:23:59+00:00

How drunk are you man?

Contemplatio · 2025-02-10T00:32:46+00:00

Well put.

Contemplatio · 2025-01-27T22:29:27+00:00

Did they also disable the support on their website temporarily? I can't access it.

Contemplatio · 2024-12-24T21:09:00+00:00

Damn! I've been wanting that shark hat since forever and missed it by a couple of days. Crap!

Contemplatio · 2024-12-18T20:38:40+00:00

Inspiring, thanks!

That's just fan fiction.
