  • It's not that they're afraid of society collapsing. They clearly don't care about that, as most of what they do ignores that.

    What they're worried about is the "Great Replacement", where white people become a minority. If that wasn't what they were really afraid of, then they would consider the problem of declining birth rates to be easily solvable with immigration.

  • Introverts will do anything but ask for help

  • It's not even about efficiency. I suspect that this is easier on her back, because she doesn't have to keep pace with someone who doesn't coordinate with her and who makes sudden, unexpected moves that cause her to wrench her back. As someone who has lifted a lot of heavy things in his life, I always find it easier and less painful to move something on my own whenever possible.

  • Life After I Turned 30 [Sarah's Scribbles]

  • I think the number thirty is being blamed, not because your life is actually "over" when you turn thirty, but because that TENDS to be roughly the age most people start having kids, and having kids certainly DOES cause major changes in lifestyle.

  • Life After I Turned 30 [Sarah's Scribbles]

  • You should get that taken care of. An occasional twinge now and then is normal, but constant pain? In your thirties? That ain't standard. In your forties, I could believe - although it still wouldn't be standard. But your back should still be in relatively good nick in your thirties, unless you lift heavy things for a living. In your thirties a backache should be nothing a good night's sleep, a nice stretch, and a long leisurely walk can't fix.

    Unless... you DO lift with your knees, right? When you need to lift something? And keep your back straight and chin up while doing so? People don't constantly say to do that just for shits and giggles - it's universally good advice.

  • Jucika goes to evening school

  • She's not standing up in her seat though as she blocks our view of the seat and is therefore beside it (or in front of it from our perspective). If she's walking beside the desks that implies she's the teacher (or professor if she's teaching adults an advanced subject).

    Her eye-rolling in the first panel suggests that she's fed up with whatever nonsense the man is saying. My guess is that he's proving to be a poor student for whatever reason.

    In the second panel I assume she's invited him back to her place that evening for some "extra tutoring" and in the third panel he comes to realize (to his disappointment) that she wasn't speaking euphemistically.

    My guess is that the difficulty in translating the title is due to some obscure local idiom for "Jucika's extra tutoring gig" or "Jucika's evening class side-hustle".

  • [Discussion] HOTD S03E06 "Faceless Men"

  • We've had two Rhaenys Targaryens:

    1. Sister-wife of the Conqueror, rider of Meraxes

    2. The Queen that Never Was, rider of Meleys

    Two Rhaena Targaryens:

    1. Sister of Jaehaerys I, rider of Dreamfyre, first Targaryen woman to be rejected for her sex and passed over for her brother, mentioned by Alys as having stayed in Harrenhal

    2. Sister of Baela, rider of Sheepstealer

    Two Baelor Targaryens:

    1. Baelor the Blessed, who had the Great Sept built

    2. Baelor Breakspear, the Hammer

    Two Baelon Targaryens:

    1. Father of Viserys I and Daemon

    2. Son of Viserys I, "the Heir for a Day"

    Two Aerys Targaryens:

    1. Brother of Baelor Breakspear and Maekar, mentioned in passing in AKOTSK

    2. The Mad King

    Two Jaeharys Targaryens:

    1. The Conciliator, rider of Vermithor

    2. Son of Aegon II, beheaded by Blood and Cheese

    Two Viserys Targaryens:

    1. Viserys I, the Peaceful, rider of Balerion (briefly)

    2. Daemon and Rhaenyra's youngest son, last seen heading for Pentos

    It's pretty true to life, as historically, children have usually been named after family members.

  • [Discussion] HOTD S03E06 "Faceless Men"

  • So with the "Daeron the Daring" name drop this episode, the screen franchise now has three Daeron Targaryens:

    1. Daeron the Daring Targaryen
    2. Daeron II Targaryen, AKA Daeron the Good
    3. Daeron the Drunken Targaryen

    Obviously it's nowhere near the number of Aegon Targaryens that have been mentioned so far...

    1. Aegon the Conqueror Targaryen
    2. Aegon the Elder Targaryen
    3. Aegon the Younger Targaryen
    4. Aegon the Unlikely Targaryen AKA Egg
    5. Aegon Targaryen (son of Elia Martell)
    6. Aegon the White Wolf Targaryen AKA Jon Snow

    ...but it does seem to be the second-most common name in the screen franchise so far. I wonder will we ever hear Daeron the Young Dragon mentioned. It can really only happen in AKOTSK, I suppose.

    EDIT: Oh, wait, I forgot that it's actually a tie for second with "Brandon Stark":

    1. Brandon the Builder Stark
    2. Brandon Stark (brother of Ned Stark)
    3. Brandon the Broken Stark
