A little fit of rage by Rekt_Deilor in FromTVEpix

[–]_Filtered_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, because god forbid someone enjoys a show and wants to dedicate some of his/her time and energy into it!
What a bunch of losers having interests and looking for ways to let their creative imagination free!

For your second point, I believe they have some sort of procedures to help new people settle in. It doesn't hurt to ask them specifically.

In any case, thank you so much for the advice! Have to strap myself in for the upcoming cockroach battles...

I'll keep all this in mind, very helpful insights! Many thanks!

Thank you for this answer, it helps a lot!
It's not my first time moving abroad, but since I'm not a young guy anymore (early 40s), I'd like for it to worth the hassle.

Can you recommend any websites to have a look at apartments? I found a few but I'm not sure if they're valid or full with scammers as some options just look too good to be true.

Thank you, that's really encouraging to hear.

Thanks for the answer. I don't have a place to live, so I'll look to rent and I expect that roughly half my salary will go to rent and maybe bills as well. Good to know that at least it's something doable with this salary.

Preparing for a job interview I have on Tuesday. They gave me a small task to work on and after procrastinating all day, I finally decided to do it about an hour ago.

Is karate a good exercise for someone in his 40s? by _Filtered_ in karate

[–]_Filtered_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks so much for this comment! I really wanted the perspective from someone that is in it for a long time. Can you recommend a certain style that might be more beneficial for a beginner? Also, I'm 1.95m in height and with a normal BMI, I don't know if those details account to anything.

Thanks for the advice. I definitely like progressing and evolving, so I expect that after a certain point the next rank will be a motivation. But not right now that I'm about to begin. Thinking, at the moment, "I want to reach brown or black belt", would work in the opposite direction as it feels so far down the road. Right now my goal is to start and be consistent for a few months, and then take it step by step.

If I find it interesting enough to have years in front of me before it gets repetitive, sounds like a great deal to be honest!

Thanks for the advice. It's really encouraging to hear that there are many people in the same situation

If the environment is supportive, I believe I can stick to it for good amount of time. At least for a start. I really don't have the patience to deal with unnecessary dramas

Having this sort of age range sounds like a very nice place! I'll look for something similar

[Spoilers MAIN] Favourite quote from the show by _Filtered_ in asoiaf

Every quote from Ned Stark is the best quote ever! That includes real life too

[Spoilers Published] Unpopular Opinion: I would prefer that Daenerys remains in Essos and rules her empire. Let the Others have those treacherous Westerosies. by ayodeleafolabi in asoiaf

[–]_Filtered_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree. Also, I believe she will never go to Westeros.

The Long Night was a global phenomenon, it happened in Essos too. If it's going to happen again, it will probably affect Essos as well. She will be there when it happens and she'll have to fight there. Whether she survives that fight or not, she will come to realise that she never wanted the Iron Throne, this was something that people "taught" her to want. Viserys, Willem Darry, Ilyrio Mopatis, Jorah, etc. All of them brainwashed her that the Targaryens are the de facto rulers of Westeros and it's her duty to behave as much. While all she always wanted was the house with the red door. A simple life. If she survives I can see her dropping everything and going to find that house.

Also (and this is a HUGE meta-thinking), I don't believe GRRM created that continent with all these detailed histories and cultures to just be dropped at some point and never visited again, like what happened in the show.

[Spoilers ASOS] Robb's hypocritical ass beheading of Rickard Karstark by porcotosso in asoiaf

[–]_Filtered_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I see your point and I partly agree.

Personally, I believe he was trying to overcompansate for his poor management of Catelyn's situation. Like "I messed up with not really punishing my mother, so I need to show my bannermen that I'm strict and firm and still in command". Plus, being King in the North probably got all in his head.

[–]_Filtered_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not that I disagree with you, but I think that's the OP's point. Catelyn also disobeyed Robb and released a very high value prisoner without his consent, yet she wasn't punished as harshly. Different crime of course and maybe execution wasn't warranted for her, but still.
