Jeans are so expensive :
Margaret Atwood said this about her work “The Handmaids Tale”. It was based on actual historical events which made reading the book even harder. Those who ignore history are doomed to repeat it and modernizing these events make sure no one forgets.

The red wedding always reminded me about Stockholm's bloodbath, where the majority of Swedish nobles were invited by the danish king to a feast, and promptly executed, leading to the Vasa uprising when Sweden broke free from the Kalmar Union and Danish rule.

My family is from the MacDonald Clan of glencoe - we still talk about it, a generational ricochet of trauma after centuries.

OFF TOPIC!!: but how do you think the stark children stories are going to end? Personally I don’t think it will be anything like the show endings.

So many events & characters are inspired by real history. Like Sir William Marshall the greatest Medieval knight served 3 different kings & was still storming castles at 70 . Which I believe Barriston the Bold is based off !

Could u make a video answering if Aegon the conquerors dream was still passed down from to other tarygaren heirs after Queen Rheanyras death and the death of her heir Jacaerys? Since she was the only one who knew of the dream after viserys’ passing. I thought it would be an interesting topic ive seen no one else speak of 😊
