Anthropologists will look back and declare that once we had to stop rewinding and being kind to each other, the crumbling of the empire began.

I probably would have been one of those little pricks using the seat belt as a blunt object to swing over my head. Kids are animals.

Okay I’ll be that guy.

Season 2: “I WILL TAKE WHAT IS MINE WITH FIRE AND BLOOD”

You explicitly brought in the race of a character as a negative where there was no warranty to do so. If you did it with any other race it would be undeniably called racist. And if using the phrase ‘boring white male’ ‘is not reinforcing the notion that all white characters are boring’ then how is GOT reinforcing…

Realistically, there’s no other way she was ever going to go.

I have read the books.

Myles, the article was going great. I was with you until “boring white dude”. Why does every single piece nowadays have to be about gender and race? If you find the character boring, you can say boring, no need to bring up race. If race is an issue (which it isn’t cause you know, Dany’s white too) why do you have to…

“That blond gal sure turned into a real creep-bitch!”

Great post, and you're not the only one still enjoying this show; there are dozens of us.

there’s some cause to say that the various and sundry Twitteratti who named their children “Daenerys” or “Khaleesi” probably should’ve seen this coming.

To be fair to Warren, a whole lotta fans aren’t happy too!

I also like that it challenges us to wonder whether Cersei was the lesser of two evils. She was a monster too, of course, but don’t her cruelties look downright strategic in hindsight now? It’s much more complicated than CERSEI BAD, DANY GOOD. CERSEI PATRIARCHY, DANY FEMINISM. CERSEI MEAN, DANY NICE.

everyone this morning is so hilariously horny for yelling at the creators, but none of that changes the fact that you’d have to be a fucking moron to not see the “mad queen” hints the show has been dropping since Season 1. this is on Warren and anyone else stupid enough to not understand the subtext of Dany’s arc,…

I think it could’ve been clearer but I’d still argue it’s all there in the episode and recent seasons. Let’s look at just the last two seasons.

It seems I’m one of the only people who still likes this show now, because apparently the idea that a show whose only long-running theme that rulership by birth is destructive at best and when led by ill rulers is horrifying in totality, ending with yet another ill-ruler with a longstanding history of…

Yeah he mentions it but only for like two seconds when he first gets into the cab. Engines just exist to do one thing, really, and that’s to spin A Thing, the Thing being the flywheel or torque converter typically.

Had you only realized at the time that a smaller rear sprocket would have geared it “up” for higher speed.

Normally, engine accessories are powered by ... belts driven by the engine’s crankshaft pulley.

I determined what I was able to recently buy by looking at what I wanted my monthly car payment to be for 60 months at my approved rate + how much I had available for a down payment. It took some time, but I found (almost 100%) what I wanted at the price I could afford.
