Even when it’s ostensibly not about business, it is. Every woman in this kind of occupation has a story like this.

Yeah, this is my favourite Stannis moment, because it says so much about the character.

Him killing Shireen made absolutely no sense. You can do mental gymnastics all day long to justify this, but it’ll still make no sense.

Stannis’s last words are also provide some truly ominous foreshadowing for Brienne. If there is any character on GoT that comes close to mirroring Stannis’s sense of duty, it’s Brienne. So his last words also serve as a warning, because even a life spent in the service of duty can end cold, defeated, and alone at…

Say what now?

I remember my mom who managed customer service in the 80s telling me stories about how she worked in the main room with the secretaries because “only men got offices.” And how she was frequently required to do the fetching and the serving because she was the only woman in the meetings.

That’s right; everyone’s opinion must be wrong but yours.

As a trailer to entice that was, frankly, shite.

And yet he doesn’t UNDERSTAND the joke. Full disclosure - I had this pointed out to me by a friend yesterday. It’s BRILLIANT and still gives us something to hold over these assholes heads.

The talk of “teaching moments” and “learn to understand their point of view” is the type of stuff that has lead us to where we are today. We step towards the middle and they take a step to the right.

But some of what he says here isn’t. We ‘re quick to label people we don’t agree with.

I’ll never understand people like you’s logic. Like “yes he said racist things but he shouldn’t be made to feel bad for wanting to persecute you! Instead hold his hand, politely explain why yelling the n word at black people is bad, and then hope that he learns to use the term thug instead!

Because that’s the only topic that’s really REALLY dirty, would implicate dubious mafia characters, and get the leaker polonium slipped into their next tea?
