From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.As "Game of Thrones" nears its end, it doesn't have time for travel.
In earlier seasons, we'd spend all ten episodes watching characters travel, some not even getting to their destination by the end of the season.
For example, in season four, Arya Stark and the Hound start out in the Riverlands and don't get to the Vale until the final episodes.
But now, the show is much more fast-paced. With a limited number of episodes left, things have to get done.
That means no more watching characters ride horses on the Kingsroad. This stark (pun somewhat intended) difference in time on the show has confused some viewers, and has inspired a lot of jokes on the internet.
One of the best comes from a Redditor who asked to be credited as Steve H., who created a map depicting Jon Snow's travels since season five, episode eight ("Hardhome"), until season seven, episode five ("Eastwatch"). The White Walkers and the wights have a lot of catching up to do.
Here's the map:
At this point, Jon Snow might as well start a side gig as a travel blogger. If Instagram likes could kill White Walkers as well as Valyrian steel, that would make things a heck of a lot easier for the King in the North.
