I am very let down by Game of Thrones. No spoilers here other than saying the past two seasons have been awful.

I was just about to asked for a non-spoiler opinion about Game of Thrones this season, especially the recent episode.

If there were no context, the episode last night would've been amazing. The story leading up to it is awful. They got rid of so many plot points and made some bad decisions which ruin it.

Insofar as they are both investing. But beyond that, they are unrelated investment vehicles.

Like currency, rates, bonds, stocks, commodities, real estate... all different investment types.

Absolutely not. That's the kind of stuff they tell the poor to keep them poor.

OK
Bonds are the riskiest thing you can do. You don't get a safer portfolio by throwing money away. That's on par with saying that a good portfolio includes stuffing cash in a mattress. "Diversification" is one of those blind kinds of hype that they use to justify things that logically make no sense.
It's like saying "Don't keep all of your eggs in one basket." It is the kind of thing that people repeat so much that they have no idea what it means, so you can say it about anything and people just assume that what you are saying makes sense.
When in reality, bonds are a super risky investment meant only for the ultra-rich to do specific "against the market" bets. Normal investors have no reason to add so much risk.

It depends on what you are measuring for. Generally speaking, I like keeping an eye on it. (It helps my day go by faster, on days like today, lol).

Yes, watching it is fine, if you are emotionally disconnected. The problem is, normal people are not. It's a huge skill to be able to view a portfolio going up and down and remain totally emotionless.
