1. The brand of MrBeast, run by Jimmy Donaldson, is one of the most prominent on YouTube. It stretches beyond just videos to include ghost kitchens, chocolate bars, big competitions, an Amazon reality show, and large-scale philanthropic events. While some admire his entertaining content and charitable works, others criticize him for having a growth-oriented, profit-driven mindset, often referred to as “CEO brain,” and argue that his style has been excessively mimicked by aspiring YouTube creators, potentially negatively affecting the entire platform.

I figured out what went wrong with the Blood and Cheese scene (and how to fix it)

by

In the thrilling opening of House of the Dragon season 2, titled “A Son for a Son,” I found myself witnessing a chilling scene straight from George R.R. Martin’s novel Fire & Blood: Daemon Targaryen, my character in this world, dispatches two assassins, named Blood and Cheese, to the Red Keep with orders to avenge his step-son Luke’s death by killing Aemond Targaryen, who was responsible for it. However, these killers couldn’t locate Aemond, so they decided on a different target: the young Prince Jaehaerys Targaryen, son of King Aegon Targaryen and his sister-wife Helaena. In a tragic turn of events, they took Prince Jaehaerys’ life while he was in the room. Helaena, who was also present, managed to save her other child, Jaehaerys’ twin sister Jaehaera, and escape as quickly as she could after witnessing such a gruesome sight.
