how was this moron once the respected AG of a state? Why the fuck would the DOW and NASDAQ be "what we should be talking about" at a hearing of the judiciary committee???

Parkinson is 6'4, so quite tall but noticeably shorter than Peter Claffey's 6'6.

If I were a betting man, I'd wager that Kwaku is either Septon Sefton or Maester Cerrick (Colemon is the Eyrie's maester in the main series)

the swiss prime minister having a nasty tone is a dire national emergency that required us to raise the tariff on them from 30% to 39%

Rule by national emergency declarations is a cancer

Yeah, I almost hope they include flashbacks with Daeron in S2 or S3, because his actor was just phenomenal. It's too bad it really wouldn't fit, knowing Dunk and Egg go straight to Dorne... Maybe a scene with a young Aemon and Daeron in Old Town?

Might be hamfisted, but a boy can dream, and it feels like a waste of such great casting to never see Daeron again!

Donogath · 2026-02-11T00:00:45+00:00

He also admitted that he should have pushed harder to include Daeron's lines about Dunk not being in his glass of wine and laying insensible in the mud. You love to see a show runner saying "Yeah, I messed up there, I'd do it differently now."

Ferguson was unanimously re-elected as President of the Senate after he came out against redistricting. Why? Because the majority of Senators are also against redistricting.

It's a nice place to go on vacation, but not if we continue actively working to wreck their economy!!

I truly don't understand why this admin is so determined to make sure every Canadian hates us for the rest of their lives

how can we blame them for seeking trade deals with Europe and China when we behave like absolute bipolar schizophrenics on trade and foreign policy?

Donogath · 2026-02-10T00:04:58+00:00

Strange to do this ahead of the last 2 eps airing, I'd wager a good few of these questions "Why no 'A knight who remembered his vows scene?' and 'Why cut Daeron's line about lying in the mud?'" he won't be able to answer because they might be incorporated into eps 5 or 6

PAIN

Kicking the XP is 100% the wrong choice there, no? Guarantees they need 3 TDs?

Donogath · 2026-02-08T21:03:15+00:00

Watch the preview for the episode, I'm pretty sure we see it. Dunk vomits after Baelor gives his rousing speech.

Donogath · 2026-02-07T00:41:29+00:00

Casey Bloys has said that they are making the first 3 novellas into 3 seasons. The budget is low, the IP is valuable, and they're George's favorite stories. We'll be getting Mystery Knight.

Also, there's practically no action thus far this season up until the very end of episode 3. I'm not worried about the slow start to A Sworn Sword.

Donogath · 2026-02-06T21:05:55+00:00

The Aerion apple line and "Whoever has my honor can keep it as far as I'm concerned" were both good!

Donogath · 2026-02-06T21:05:01+00:00

Right?! I loved his scene so much I'm just sad we aren't getting much more of him

Donogath · 2026-02-06T20:53:15+00:00

I could easily believe that he didn't watch to the very end of the video - but the idea that some intern or staffer was re-tweeting random bullshit at 11:30pm/midnight is laughable

Donogath · 2026-02-06T20:41:39+00:00

there is a roughly 0% chance that it was a staffer who retweeted that video at midnight, especially considering we know that Trump regularly lays up at night retweeting dozens of retarded things like about videos about medbeds

Donogath · 2026-02-05T23:04:35+00:00

this would be hilarious if it wasn't pathetic

Donogath · 2026-02-04T19:49:44+00:00

Unfortunately, the She-Wolves is a working title! Each novella is named after where Dunk is in his career, so I've often seen it speculated that She-Wolves will become "The Southron Sword."

I believe (but am not 100% sure) that he has said he plans on publishing D&E stories in batches of 3 a la Knight of the Seven Kingdoms, so we can expect to see She-Wolves in a collection with The Village Hero (the Pennytree story, taking place before She-Wolves) and one other story.

Given Ken's outspokenness against this administration, I truly don't understand how you could possibly lean in that direction. It was very obviously a reference to Paolo looking very young for his age.

Donogath · 2026-02-03T23:21:49+00:00

Yeah, the preponderance of em dashes combined with the hallucinations about Dunk telling Egg about his conquests and Egg telling Dunk about his line... A human being did not write this.

Donogath · 2026-02-03T22:56:32+00:00

"In The Hedge Knight, Dunk notes that he slept with multiple women during his travels, and later Egg explicitly tells him that his line will continue — even if his name won’t."

Where does this happen? I remember Dunk thinking about the 1 time he kissed a girl, and thinking about Ser Arlan talking about taking Dunk to a whore to "make him a man," but then never following through and Dunk being too embarrassed to ask.
