Name one other Frey woman with a speaking role of consequence who wasn’t Walda or a brief wife (or the doomed Edmure’s bride). Frey women are a non-entity in the books and the shows. ALL the Freys who participated in the red wedding had HELLA agency in their choice, and if you think it was about “Robb bad, robb broke…

Ok so first off, like IT IS KNOWN that the entrance to the North is a very teeny strip of land called “The Neck” which is technically part of the North ruled by the spooky swamp dwelling House Reed who owes fealty to Stark.

THAT being said: The Freys control a bridge across a particularly tough to cross area of the…

I straight up love shenanigans because of it’s tenuous connection to the Irish “sionnachuighim” which means “I play the fox” (ie: cunning tricks and mischief). But I cannot fucking stand the phrase “canoodling” and it should be banned!!

I know exactly why I was as unpopular as I was. I clung tight to my nerdery, I raised insects for funsies, and I was hella poor so all my attempts at that era goth were some goodwill punk DIY shit that made me look like Stevie Nicks’ over acessorized evil style double. And that teen bitch was glorious in her own…

Teach them. For real, at the Uni level they seriously do not give a fuuuuck about whether or not you’re a chipper Dead Poets Society teacher. I’m hella surly with my students and even though I REALLY try not to cuss, when it slips out I can see their eyes like widen like “OMG teacher said a cuss” Also it’s super fun…

I just want to like, extend a hand of loving kindness to Current Teens. I’m a Moderately-to-Approaching Old. My internet in highschool plugged into the damn wall. The only thing I had to be afraid of was accidentally pasting the link to my suhweeeet geocities webpage of fan fiction (I was part of several WEB RINGS!…

What, what WHAT is this nonsense. Being a teenager now seems like it’s fucking EXHAUSTING and then you realize as a teen, like completely bombarded by Instagram and twitter and snap chats and everything selling you individual’s most refined lies about themselves, and EVERYTHING being scaled up to “++++extra” levels,…

Fuuuuuuck that song forever, person I’m pretty sure is within 1-2 years of my age. The only dumber “song” is “Sunscreen” spoken by Baz Luhrman. My husband is only 4 years younger than me and he was oblivious to that song until like a month ago when it popped up on reddit, and the second that inane drone came on I felt…

White lady who was a teen in Rural-ish Ohio. Got the same talk from my dad. I think white guys are the only ones who DON’T get a “talk” about how to not get crimed on by a cop.

See, I wondered why so many people now have dash cams in the US. I mean come on there’s no hilarious traffic accidents to capture like in Russia, is everyone filming for their car youtube channel? Nope. You need that camera so you can maybe explain to your insurance company, and or the federal courts why that ticket…

Like Ionized said, one bad apple spoils the barrel, so if you don’t take the shitty apples out of the barrel soon you just have a barrel full of rotten apples and you can’t turn that shit into delicious cider. The sensible thing to do would be to throw out and crush the bad apples so the rot doesn’t spread but with…

He’s pretty awesome! He swam since he was wee all the way through college and even there’s a definite advantage for men’s physiology in swimming, there are plenty of women who can get in the water and SMOKE their male peers.

I think the thing people can’t get about riding is that you can’t pick out the best rider from…

First: That horse is enchantingly beautiful

I snark this all the time, I did cross country and the only obstacle was your skill level, and ability to pay, and even then you’ll still sink at high skill events if all you did was pay for a horse with the best bloodlines, paid for the best Imported trainer (the horse and…

Husband says: Just put a toilet in there somewhere, now it’s a woman’s bathroom and politicians will be losing their minds making sure nobody who presents male ever gets in.

I’m not sure about other folks decisions, but I looked at the paperwork involved and thought “How the fuck is it fair that *I* have to do all this and give up my family identity in the name of transfer from father to husband? I’d be the only one to get a new Social Sec card, passport, whole nine yards and that’s a lot…

Oh good lord watch all three seasons of Hannibal and then report back to me Katy. BECAUSE YOU SUCK and so does your Frey/Titus Andronicus Pie. Seriously if you’re going to do a “consumed” video and not end with like full on Hannibal food styled cannibalism with your decapitated head spitting out an apple then GTFO.

Was…

The book for sure. It’s incredible and you will cry (maybe). I recommend it to every bio student to learn the human face behind something we take for granted and reading about Deborah’s introduction into learning about how her mother’s cells have helped progress science in a way we can hardly fathom is beautiful.…

I super hate to break this to you, but the *rest* of the non Gawker internet has taken Harambe memes into “dank” territory (meaining that shit tired, unfunny and now the racists have it) the meme’s circulating of albino gorillas with the caption “Harambe wouldn’t have been shot if he looked like this”and Dicks out for…

Sooo...I know you’re the weekend filler, but I wish I could downvote the shit out of this. Cincinnati Zoo is most famous for its endangered Sumatran Rhino breeding program sucess and the sucess of the CREW project in general, and pioneering bar-free naturalistic enclosures (including the one the kid fell into)…

I had un-insured hand surgery from an injury sustained while...washing the damn dishes (glass shattered, 80% extensor tendon laceration). And that was WAY before iPhones when insurance companies merrily rejected your applications for such trivial delights as “BMI!” (“anorexic” denied again even when I jumped through…
