The Lord of the Rings vs Game of Thrones

It is not about morality. It is about aesthetics.

Why do we love The Lord of the Rings?

Because when we watched it in our youth, we thought Aragorn, Boromir, and Legolas were cool as they vanquished Orcs.

We thought it was epic and high testosterone to see the charge of the Rohirrim at Minas Tirith.

It is really that simple. To focus on morality is to over-complicate things.

Why do we love the Horus Heresy (and Warhammer 40 000, more generally)? Same simple reasons, because it Space Marines and Primarchs are cool.

Again, simple stuff!

Also, for the record, I greatly enjoyed Game of Thrones back in the day.

Bronze Age Petroglyphs in Sweden (Himmelstalund, Östergötland) 🇸🇪

I absorb ancestral energies at a Bronze Age site (our ancestors are with us as we endeavour to save our nation and civilisation).

As you can see, the carvings mainly depict ships – the Scandinavian sea-faring tradition predates the Viking Age.

Good stuff!

🧵 I just got a question on Instagram regarding how often I wear lesser brands (i.e. not Legio Gloria).

So, for the sake of clarity: I have two pairs of Oscar Jacobsson trousers, one pair from Hugo Boss, and a jacket from Haglöfs (I put a patch with Yggdrasil in front of the Haglöfs logo to cover it as I do not like the company – the jacket is older than my dislike of the brand).

The rest of the wardrobe is Legio Gloria. One day we will have chinos as well! Until then, I have to suffer the indignity of wearing said other brands.

Mandatory watching. Most interesting video in years!

He is just like me.

‘The charming Maharajkumar, in his purple Chuba, spent most of the evening playing bridge with the old folks in the bridge room – not because he didn’t want to romp, but to get the bridge going and help the old people too.

He is so nice, he reminds several people of our King. In a way in looks. Young & pleasant, clean and keen looking, with a charming smile.

Young-minded and youthful, but intensely keen on his work. Tactful, doesn’t rub up the old state servants. A slight stammer.

Very intelligent face, & good features. Charming manners, & very considerate. Well groomed, always nicely dressed, and not ostentatious.’

A British Political Officer's description of Thondup, the last Chogyal of Sikkim.
