This, and I am also a fan of hot high quality salsa as dressing.

I mean, if all you’re eating is veg, it takes some volume to keep you filled up.

THIS. And lots, lots of garlic.

They can be really great, but instead of leaning into the sweetness, they need serious salt and umami. I like sweet potato garlic & chive fries.

Still in the cells of Casterly Rock, I think, with his wife and kid being held for good behavior of the Freys. (Who knows if Roslyn? ever found out about the Arya’s murderspree.)

Seriously. Bronn is going to stay holed up somewhere and won’t come out until there’s no more smoke and the rubble’s clear. I can’t see him showing up again until after the final battle. ...Unless he gets some bad writing and decides he wants to champion for Tyrion, which, given D&D, I could totally see them doing…

Please, no. So many of the “great families” have been completely destroyed in all these wars that it would make sense if Jon is the last of the Targaryens and the dragons are done. Particularly now that the Night King is no more, I could see this being the beginning of a sort of “end of the age of magic.”

I ran across a fantastic blog post from Zeynep Tufecki (she’s a well-known sociologist who studies social implications of new tech) who explains a big reason the show’s gone into such narrative decline once D&D ran out of material is its focus shifting from sociological storytelling (which Martin was doing) to…

I am going to get through it by drinking every time someone says or does something out of character or does something stupid.

I was wondering about how the Iron Bank was going to react to all this. Next monarch, if there is one, has a shit credit score now.

I’d be rooting for Ghost to come up and bite him on the ass for being a jerk.

I am praying so hard that it’s good. It’s got great talent, but we’ll have to wait to see if it hangs together.

It sure isn’t for its shitty user interface.

Yes, but unfortunatley Fleabag’s done after the second season since Waller-Smith figures she’s done all she can with the character.

I’d not heard that theory before, but I like it

Hey now. Islam is actually far more liberal about abortion than these Christian extremists’ ideology, so let’s call them what they are: Christian theocratic forced-gestationists. (And this “Christian” ideology that life begins at conception is also very recent.) It’s certainly not as catchy, but it’s more accurate and…

Not just finishing, but doing it WELL

But then why have him bang Brienne at all? Because he wanted to cockblock Tormund so much that he had to seal the deal? That’s super petty, even for Jaime, particularly at this point. They could have fondly partied without that and still given him emotional ties to Winterfell making his conflicted return gutting. How…

Honestly, I’d low-key been fine with him and Edd being the only two left, sharing a wet smoke, sitting on a pile of rubble, passing a wineskin between them being like, “Well, fuck.”

Also: can we spare a moment to consider Euron’s yet-again-magically accurate warp to the small cove where Davos has stashed the dinghy? I guess I shouldn’t be surprised given how Tyrion, Grey Worm, Varys, et al managed to wash up on the same part of Dragonstone, but it was another ridiculously dumb moment.
