Can I ask what I’m sure everyone is thinking, how are any of those things improved by being tiny?

The Hobbit ends in a massive battle that seemed made for TV, but Bilbo gets a bonk on the head. I’m sure people don’t need to hear about the ebb and flow of the battle. Have King Stannis host a feast afterwards and the few characters left alive can trade highlight stories.
Martin was mostly a Sci Fi author before ASOIAF. Still is, seemingly.
The number of people that do this is not going to even remotely shift the usage share percentage.

Well apart from how tired the “this thing is bad, this thing is good” meme format is, I think there are credible allegations of grooming?
Proper nouns are names.
… Yes? And for the full points, what is a noun?
Proper nouns are, in fact, words.
Man they really don’t teach you guys basic English.
My friend, Americans do not care about how words are pronounced in the original language/location.
The issue is taking a broad concept and making it mean a very specific one instead.
(Please note I am an atheist that lived for years in a “Muslim country”. I don’t actually agree with any of the below, but understanding what words are intended to mean is important when you are surrounded by their use in 2 different contexts).
Fatwa: a Sharia law ruling by an imam
Fatwa (western): a ruling by an imam that a person is not protected by the law and therefore a target for assassination
Hijab: men and women of Islam should maintain a sense of visual propriety in order to avoid devaluing what can be seen in private.
Hijab (western): that cloth Islamic women wear on their head.
Jihad: the righteous struggles that each human faces to choose a difficult path for good reasons.
Jihad (western): a holy war of aggression against infidels
The citizens of the world’s exceptionalist democracy when the government tyranny their guns are supposed to be for don’t represent them:
All of them. We’re all full thanks very much. Maybe you can claim to be Jewish and Israel will give you a passport.
“I can’t protest my country’s participation in a genocide because it’s too inconvenient” OK ‘bro’.
Sorry mate we’re full
of Palestinians because none of you care about your country’s behaviour until it impacts you personally
Why the oddly specific time period? Is something happening in a month, or are you doing something so that you won’t feel like this in a month?

I just hate the pathetic effort they put into the quotes. Sean Bean was a weird choice anyway (“what do people universally and forever like? Game Of Thrones I suppose!”) but then they had him read quotes from literal blogs and often quotes that shat all over the technology you’d just researched. Oh! I completed a wonder! I definitely want to hear a quote about how it’s obsolete now and its abandonment caused immense poverty in the Ruhr valley.
That and the movement towards nations instead of, yknow, Civilizations. Sorry Australia, you are not a Civilisation. Nor is Canada. Nor Scotland. How do we have Scotland - an independent country for less than 300 years - and not the fucking Celts.
What on earth are you talking about? What start button is in the middle?
tourists
Must be really strange to have all those tourists come to your mountain top.
Do one maleshep run. I promise he has some great deliveries too.
