btw! I was made aware that many people don't know that we're boycotting Eurovision this year, so.
we are boycotting Eurovision, as per BDS guidelines.
don't watch the stream, don't engage with the videos, don't post it about it on social media using hashtags that are going to trend.
please do not engage i am better as a concept
the thing about rhaenyra and those kids is that women exercising basic sexual autonomy is the bedrock of any just and equitable society. AND also scamming is funny. how could you not applaud her velaryon disinformation campaign
she turned a meeting about how her son cut her baby brother’s eye out (which she showed up late to because she was hooking up with her uncle at his wife’s funeral) into successfully lobbying to make it official policy that the government mutilate anyone who points out that her visibly brunette children have brown hair. that’s my king of westeros right there
worst part about getting angry is how much it makes you want to be mean
sorry i said something dickish. a few mildly frustrating things happened to me in succession and it turned me evil
this has been discussed before but reducing female characters to the girlboss braincell holder in the name of combating misogyny in fandom is ironically also a form of misogyny
people love love loooove to go on and on and on about whiteguy #135336843’s internal torment and the nuances of his writing and then when it comes time to talk about women it’s all um actually she can do no wrong and holds the braincell and babysits the boys like a mother hashtag feminism. i hope you fucking blow up
🗣 DIVERSITY IS NOT SAMENESS.
Someone once said that the titles of jane austen's novels are the name of the problems in the books. For example: in pride and prejudice the biggest problem is the conflict between pride and prejudice. So that makes Emma the biggest problem in Emma and, now that I have started reading the novel, I have never agreed more with something than I agree with this.
Sorry if this is reaching for something that isn't there but I was thinking about how tywin basically commiting raped to both his son and tysha (while watching), and than later went on to sleep with the same sex worker his son had been sleeping with, and how...strange that all is. Like two incidents involving some sort of sexual thing going on between them (on tywin's part). Idk if it's just abuse and tywin's need to have power over tyrion but is there more to it? Am I wrong? Sorry if this is a silly thought
no you are absolutely 100% correct that there is something extremely evil about the psychosexual enmeshment of all the lannisters which goes beyond jaime and cersei and seems to originate with tywin. the first thing he did upon attaining power was having his father’s mistress whipped naked through the streets for two weeks. tywin married his cousin joanna (who i would argue really ends up as like a proxy in whatever psychosexual humiliation rituals were happening between tywin and aerys). Tywin enacts these violent sexual humiliation rituals with his children (most often tyrion who i think reminds him of himself but also cersei) who in turn enact them on each other. Tywin also appears to be very fixated on the power and authority of house targaryen and passed this to his children as well. there’s something there.
there it is.

I love you “unlikeable” female characters I love you rude girls I love you mean women I love you girl interpretations of the “Asshole with a Heart of Gold” trope I love you women who get labeled Cold and Unfeeling I love you girls who lash out I love you women who lie I love you female characters who make people mad just by existing

Reverse Mother Mary Lady Jessica character of all time I fear. She’s an orphan made to be the armless mother-vessel to a mother-vessel, she defies her order for the first person she’s ever loved. She’s afraid of Paul’s visions, she walks him straight to them, she saves him from the desert, she takes the water because she can’t die and leave him alone (how forced was her hand?) but Leto is gone (Leto didn’t believe in revenge) so she stands on his grave and strangles the life out of their son. Here is her sword hand, long live the Messiah.
where did the idea that alicent is only a victim in the show but an evil mastermind in the book come from because like. well what might having to play stepmommy to a nine year old starting from age eighteen and then having to compete with said child for the personal and political affection of your husband the king for decades do to your mind
