At least we'll have Kit and Emilia's bewildered expressions to that joke of a finale 😁

Show Dany wasn't a charmer. The characters are either dumb down to make them follow her or are smart enough to know what kind of person she is. She wasn't that complex character. Infact her villain arc gave her some depth.
It's painful how stupid everyone had to become. We always focus on Jon, but so many characters had to be lobotomized to make it work.
Not Sansa though! :D
They really don't know how to support female characters without pitting them against each other, and it shows. Its not impossible to like *both* Stark sisters, you know.
Ship girl stans like to talk how she is the champion of the smallfolk and the trash talk Jeyne Poole an actual commoner for calling Ary@ "horseface'' way back in the book one, i swear to God some of them did not move from the AGOT and it shows
That's pretty much all Sansa antis, not just the shipcels. They're mentally stuck on book 1 and never left (it also explains why they all still think Ship Girl is an oppressed underdog and Dani is still being victimized).
The thing is, yes, we saw Sansa at her worst there (though that's not saying much when other characters' worst is murder or rape) but we also saw her at her most innocent and sweet. I never had a problem liking or empathizing with AGOT!Sansa and it's weird to me so many people do.
Also, if they wanna judge the Starks in book 1, they should talk about Jon's moodiness and Ar.ya literally beating Sansa up. They're lucky their faves don't get negatively judged by first impressions.
There is so much going on that I don't know what to comment on first...
Here. A bunch of cursed images and memes redrawn as dp characters
I blame the movies we watched growing up framing black widows, tarantulas, and even just regular spiders as dangerous and unsettling
You know what’s wild? I hear people all the time talking about how they’ve been bitten by spiders. And the truth is that spider bites are so incredibly rare, constantly misdiagnosed. Do your research or ask anyone who studies them. Spiders are simply not out here biting people.
But what’s even more amazing is how adamant people are about seeing spiders as biting people when you know who does bite people? All the time? Ants. Why do people not fear ants? But this fantasy of spiders biting them gives them severe avoidance instincts. Like have you ever sat on concrete. Or in grass. Or outside at all ever? Ants are biting you. That little pinch you felt under your thigh? That’s some little fuckers mouthpieces grabbing your leg my dude.
It just doesn’t make sense to me? Why do people fear spiders but not ants? When ants are so much more likely to walk on your person than spiders, and in many cases will bite you if you don’t know they’re on you. Someone explains this to me. And don’t say spiders are bigger and creepier bc have you seen bullet ants
This is not to throw shade on ants. I think ants are fantastic and beautiful little guys. But seriously why are we demonizing spiders when ants are literally sitting right next to them biting u
I actually think Jaime and Cersei won't make out of twow. Aegon will hold King's Landing against Daenerys, not Cersei i.e, a much more likable monarch, making Dany's actions even more horrific. And Jaime's plot for S7/S8 didn't even make sense. But they will die together, of that I am sure.
(in reference to this post)
I agree. I think Dany's choice to take KL from Aegon is far more interesting than for her to fight Cersei because killing Cersei would have no personal significance, debating whether or not Aegon is who he claims to be, deciding he is a fraud whether that’s a genuine belief or merely a convenient one, it allows a lot more inner turmoil. Also, I believe Martin said something about us getting a little Targ war, a mini dance of the dragons 2.0, so it seems likely the two will have a fight over the throne. But even without Martin's comment, in the books themselves he's ramping up to it with this:
"A dragon eating its own tail, aye," Valena said. "From the days of Aegon's Conquest. He did not conquer here. Elsewhere he burned his foes, him and his sisters, but here we melted away before them, leaving only stone and sand for them to burn. And round and round the dragons went, snapping at their tails for want of any other food, till they were tied in knots." (TWOW, Arianne I)
which is yes, history, but also signaling what is to come for House Targaryen. They fight and kill each other, it’s fitting that that is how they go out. And we know they will, that although Rhaegar was "the last" and that Viserys thought he was the last, in truth, Dany will be the last:
And saw her brother Rhaegar, mounted on a stallion as black as his armor. Fire glimmered red through the narrow eye slit of his helm. "The last dragon," Ser Jorah's voice whispered faintly. "The last, the last." Dany lifted his polished black visor. The face within was her own. (AGOT, Daenerys IX)
So for her to kill a Targ claimant to take the throne and then be killed in turn makes sense to me.
I now can’t remember if there was a specific line that convinced me Jaime and Cersei would die together, maybe it was just Jaime saying it (“We will die together as we were born together”) that planted the idea, but before s8 I had accepted it as inevitable. There is an entire section of this post by @istumpysk with quotes/spec about how.
Mr. Neil, I have a question for you regarding the third season of the series Good Omens, I have heard that supposedly the angel Aziraphale will be a villain in the series, is this true??? I have a lot of concern and fear as well, I hope for your prompt response to my question.
Everything you've heard about Season 3 of Good Omens is always true, because if there's one thing we love doing on Good Omens, it's telling everyone the plot years ahead of time.
Aziraphale will be a villain called The Snaffler, a costumed super-thief out to steal the famed Jet Jaguar diamond in order to power his world-destroying laser beam gun. Only his wife the lovely and hilarious Sadie, a bumbling Spanish Police Inspector with a moustache, and a man in a gorilla suit stand between him and his goal.
I am going to regret asking, aren't I? What happened?
In light of recent events
"Et tu, Boöts?"
What am I looking at..? Is that a whole chicken? A pie? Is that gelatine? *What* am I looking at..?
Every aspic of this is terrible.
