i was in high school in 2014 eagerly awaiting GRRM's new year announcement.....i would've passed out if you told me it wouldn't be out still after OVER TEN YEARS

i blame D+D. you should too. i can't even comprehend trying to watch the later seasons of the show: the tone is fucking vile. the tone is fucking le epic twitter bants instead of rich medieval political drama. dumb cunts.

is there even an expectation of it anymore? it feels like the series is just....gone from cultural memory. for obvious reasons.

Seeing this on all it looks like an insane person wrote it lol. The community name is an acronym and you used three different acronyms in your post without explaining any of them, including one in the title.

Asoiaf = A Song of Ice and Fire. The Game of Thrones book series.

GRRM is George R. R. Martin - the book author.

D+D would be the Game of Thrones showrunners, who's names both start with D.

TWOW is The Winds of Winter I believe, the next book which the author supposedly still works on, after god knows how many years. For context, the last book was published sometime during GoT airing, during early seasons I believe.
