Smaug got killed by a human and Tolkien had a lot of philosophical ideas about that, and likewise, the Targaryen dragons made Daenerys go crazy and Martin said they were also supposed to be like nukes and had philosophical ideas about both of those facts as well.

Nukes kinda made the whole world go crazy from like 1945 until 1990. I lived through a bunch of that.

Footlocks can catch anyone on any given day, but I usually just shake my head and chuckle when I hear about this.

The relationship right now is just my hands, just barely holding on. I wish to cultivate a better relationship in the future.
