This post comes out of a new series of writing I do on ASOIAF meta and other topics of popular culture over at the Patreon of the Boiled Leather Audio Hour.
If you like to read stuff like this, chime in just 1$ and you get
access to everything I write. If you throw in 2$, you even get access to
mini-podcasts I'm doing with Sean T. Collins answering questions by
listeners of the podcast. Give the Patreon a look!
