I was detained for protesting against Donald Trump. Here’s what the US Secret Service asked me- What's on the idiot box?
Oh, the inbreeding was by design! I did get a pretty good chuckle from the "Judas has the escape mules ready to go." line. Hell, it took me a minute to even realize that was a flashback. Trying to recall back, I think it was a mixture of accident and then design. Sort of they did it for several generations in that zealous "purity" zone not realising the actual result would be. Then by the time it's gotten through a few more generations and it becomes noticable, the people in control have become a touch more corrupt in their own way and keep doing it by design.- What's on the idiot box?

Yes, if they hadn't just started restoring the tower we'd have actually had the tour up there to see the bell. They literally use the old school pennies to help balance the pendulum - "it's going a little fast, add a penny" "it's going a little slow, take a penny off" its a fairly robust mechanism. My dad's a horologist and has done the visit to Big Ben before, he says you time it so you climb up the tower to get to the bell just before midday. Otherwise it's a waste of effort. Still, three and a half years and it'll be open and running again.- What's on the idiot box?
Ah, not so much. Consider it this way, Viserion was named after Danny's brother who was a little ****. Rhegal is named after her older brother who died..and who just happens to be Jon Snow's father.- What's on the idiot box?

I actually got a guided tour around the Houses of Parliament yesterday by my local MP's staff. Really didn't realise how easy it is to get in and go around, and because we'd done it via the MP we skipped the paying tours and got personally handled by one of his assistants. Said assistant was sincerely enthusiastic about the history of the building, how it was used, and encouraging us on the whole "people should know how easy it is to contact their MP's, visit Parliament and see the transparency of our democracy." Winchester Hall having been built in 1099, and various sections of it going up in the centuries since. Lots of fun quirky facts and trivia, areas of grand importance and minor note explained. You have things like the table in the House of Commons that has a mark left in it by WInston Churchill rapping with a heavy object as part of a speech during WW2 that they refuse to refurbish. Along with the wood ground away on one of the doors when the Black Rod summons the Commons to meet with the Monarch. The corridor filled with books that record everything said and voted on for the past two centuries. So any member of the public can walk in, and find out what was being said and voted on by both Commons and House of Lords on the day they were born... We even got to visit the Chapel under Parliament (again, that's been there since 1099) and is amazingly impressive for the decorations and carvings. Then spent some time ambling around on the South Bank of London and seeing the sights. Of course, that's been balanced out that the toe I thought was bruised before traipsing around London yesterday has turned bright red, swollen and won't flex at all today. So, hm, it seems I might have a broken digit.- Andromeda - The End...

To be fair, we're really only aware of her commiting one act of mass murder - the male Frey's, with a couple of lone killings in the form of the house patriarch and two other Frey's. All of whom had commited a revenge-worthy atrocity. It's not like she's running around randomly killing off people. She has a list. And she's checking it twice.- The Weird, Random and Interesting Things That Fit Nowhere Else Thread
