zoux posted:Kind of the thing about the common folk before, oh 1800, was that they were all hideous, missing teeth, boils, goiters, rashes, open, weeping sores, that sort of thing. So were the nobles but they could use make ups filled with poisonous metals to mask the worst of it. Binge rewatching GOT it's been funny to see every tertiary character go from wrinkled dirt covered faces to pristine skin and makeup. The Dothraki all look like cosplayers with their smooth skin, perfect eyeliner and Just For Men dyed beards

Most "premodern peoples were all ugly cripples n poo poo" discourse is essentially pro-fossil fuel propaganda to cultivate the idea that every single quality of life we have is a consequence of technological progress

Phenotype posted:Please tell me this isn't worth reading. I'm thoroughly enjoying this stupid Dragon House show and gently caress, that actually sounds like a very interesting setup for a book, but I swore I wouldn't spend another dime on anything gurm until he finishes Winds of Winter (and even then i might just pirate it because gently caress gurm). You’re also assuming that she has a moral system where she values the lives of commoners as much as her family. Any evidence to back that up?

Yeah even thorough revolutionary america times people basically lost all their teeth quite young and either munched slop or had dentures. Modern medicine is a freaking medical - for both performance and aesthetics

Do you know what a small pox survivor looks like? No, of course you don't because we eradicated the disease in the 70's - or so the oil companies claim - but you were hosed up looking for life. And that's just one of many permanently disfiguring diseases caused by bacteria, parasites, and malnutrition.

zoux posted:My friend, medieval dentistry is not "figured out" Of course if you were the type of person who could afford to chow down on lemon cakes on the regular you'd be combining bad diet with bad dental care, and end up with a breath second only to that of a dragon.

A Buttery Pastry posted:Medieval teeth were, however, much better than early 20th century teeth. People have been making tooth pastes and various tools for dental health for thousands of years, and it's only in the quite recent past that sugar became such a major part of the diet of ordinary people that it really began to do a number on their teeth. Which makes sense, given that teeth that would just rot for no drat reason would have seen our ancestors die out way before they came up with tooth paste. i now rescind my concession on the teeth issue and submit that i have no opinion on medieval teeth at all

No finale screeners are going out, so no indications on what to expect from the finale. Critics were already confirming the foot thing last Thursday, and mentioning the episode would be "divisive". Really hoping they don't screw up the finale, because it has been fun having Game of Thrones back. A week ago I couldn't see them failing to stick the landing, but now I am not so sure.
