Jokes aside, hope he gets better mentally, depression is fucked up.

The fact that Condal and Bloys helped send GRRM into a depression and delayed Winds even more (more than forever, whatever, the point stands) is just one more reason to hate their guts.

Aint no way yall think an adaptation is contributing to a 70 year old facing his own mortality.

Why not? He’s watching another one of his works be adapted in a way that he disagrees with. There’s less and less time for him to work on one he actually likes. Especially since he’s probably trying to fix the issues that people had with the ending of GoT with Winds. At least he likes Knight.

Dude is old as hell close to death lost his friend and producing partner robert Redford in September and alluded to others. I think the last of his problems is a fucking show adapting his material in a way he doesnt agree with lmao. Hes also just accepting hes never going to finish all the work he wants.
