d&d really said let jaime lannister mooch off of brienne of tarth’s faith in him so that he doesn’t get executed, and then let him take her virginity, and then let him leave her in tears just so he can go die with his sister after all. they said that to my face

this is such a fuck you to any woman who has ever found strength in daenerys. taking a VICTIM and making her a ruthless madwoman who goes insane and kills innocents because of bells? men should not be allowed to write women ever. i mean it

David Benioff thinks it’s justifiable that Daenerys went mad after 7 seasons of being a just ruler who freed others from enslavement, NEVER put herself in the position to risk the lives of innocents, and valued the voice of the people, because “ultimately she’s a Targaryen”; yet Jon Snow, ALSO A TARGARYEN, is somehow immune to this predisposed genetic disease because… he’s a man? Say it like it is, David. Just say you don’t care about women and be done with it.

D&D really went ahead and gave the greenlight for Missandei aka the only black woman on the entirety of Game of Thrones as well as one of only two women of color with actual plot significance to be murdered for nothing but blatant shock value and to mostly make her death mostly about two white women by demonstrating one’s power and the other’s emotional state.

At this point after their extremely disrespectful treatment of non-white characters, I’m not even surprised that they took this route but that doesn’t make it any less disgustingly racist and horrible.

And before anyone goes “Well, this is Game of Thrones, everybody you love dies 🤷🏻‍♀️”; this shit doesn’t exist in a vacuum and doing that just shows the writers couldn’t be bothered to give a shit about women of color and specifically black women

this show seriously had the audacity to put missandei back in chains, her worst fear and the reason why she was loyal to danaerys (because she believed that would never happen to her again under dany’s protection), before killing her huh.

The more I think about her death the angrier I get. And people seem more saddened by Rhaegal’s death. This was an atrocious way to treat her character.

oop sorry normally i wouldn’t be on board with the whole “burn down kings landing” thing but it’s what missandei of naath wanted so

the fucking DISRESPECT these writers have for their POC characters is disgusting. they’re props for the white leads and the only remaining woman POC gets executed in CHAINS as a pawn in a game lead by cruel and petty white people

Missandei

Missandei’s last words being “DRACARYS” HURT MY HEART!! She’s such a strong woman. 

WE WILL MISS YOU… YOU DESERVED BETTER

God did she ever. I don’t think I’ll ever watch this episode again because of her death.

Mr Rochester af.

Jane Eyre 2006/Jane Eyre 2011.

What blew my mind when I found out is that Toby Stephens, my favorite Mr. Rochester, is the son of Dame Maggie Smith.  

/r/choosingbeggars is the only good Subreddit I’ve decided

This is one of the best ones I’ve found from there

Damn you’re right

This is so cursed I swear I lost five years of life

It’s missing the best one. NEXT!

Steve Crain is the WORST. 

He is!!! Nelll and Luke and Theo and Hugh are my loves, I can take or leave Shirley, but Steve does some AWFUL shit.

Is anyone else watching The Haunting of Hill House on Netflix?

No, but how is it?

I finished it in one day. It’s freaking amazing.

Is it scary?

You know what? I thought it was very scary. Not so many jump-scares (though there are a few), but more building tension and making you nervous.

If you’ve seen OCCULUS it’s the same atmosphere.

This is exactly how I feel about the show. I love that so many of the scares came from tension building and creepiness rather than jump scares. It was what I wish the 2017 IT remake had been. The cast is incredible.

Did you have favorite characters/episodes?

I’ve been eyeing it. Might take the plunge tonight.

I’ve only watched the first two episodes so far but I’m totally in. I need to know what happens.

Episode Three is where things kick off. Four and Five have some incredible scares. There’s something in episode four that scared the shit out of me. 

I really love Nell, Luke, Theo, and Frank. I enjoy watching Shirley’s scenes, and Hutton!Hugh’s. I want Netflix to do more horror in this vein.
