If you haven't seen THE FAKE JON SNOW, my 22-hour-long video with Glidus, you can now watch it on Nebula with a three-day free trial. To finish it within three days, you'll need to watch for seven hours a day. Or watch it for twenty-two hours a day so you see it three times!!!!

I like Alien: Earth, but this new episode S1E07 felt mostly nonsensical and clunky.

ASOIAF is fantasy, not sci fi. It's looking backward, and inward, not at the future or at 2025. It tries to say something timeless. ASOIAF is about the impact of the past on our present – the ghosts of past generations, the weight of forgotten songs and broken dreams.

George's politics were shaped by the Vietnam War. He drew inspiration from the Wars of the Roses. And now he has to conclude the story during the era of Trump.

ASOIAF is an anachronism. It's an artifact from the 90s that became a juggernaut of 2010s TV, that George is now trying to finish in the 2020s, a totally different cultural era.

ASOIAF makes a lot more sense when you realise it was conceived by a comics fan in the 90s. George Martin started writing A Game of Thrones in 1991. 90s comics were notoriously edgy and dark, with violence and sexual assault. ASOIAF reflects that.

a peep may even peek and peer with peepers from a peak. (from a precipice or pinnacle, perhaps!) but a peep who "peaks" atop a precipice? preposterous!! it's not particularly important. "sneak peek" and "sneak peak" are both fine. it's just something that peaked my interest.

honestly I see the merits of "sneak peak". the spelling matches. there's a logic to it. I suppose one could peek from a peak. a peak could be a perfect place from which to peek. however I feel that "peek" fits well with "peep" and "peer" and "peepers".
