I didn’t say anything about my reaction to the scene. I was critiquing the directors’ decisions.

Saying that Sansa being there is plot motivation for another male character is not exactly helping your case that she’s well-portrayed.

I’ve not read the books, and don’t plan to unless they are completed, so I am only going off what I have read about them here and elsewhere online, but based only on that, I never complain about the show going on tangents...

That was what made the Cersei and Jamie in the crypt rape the worst for me. She had not, explicitly, been subjected to sexual assault, and her motivations were much more complex in reaction to her place in society as a woman... and then, it became all muddy with that rape. :( And the lack of sexual assault has been…

I imagine it still will this season. Fingers crossed he gets thrown off a wall soon!

She’s also very young, and privileged. That’s not an excuse as much as... well. I was young and (am still) privileged, and didn’t (still don’t) always get this stuff right when talking about it.

How exactly was the viewer supposed to identify with Sansa, when the entire time it happened, the camera was close up on Theon’s face? He’s the one the viewer was told to sympathize with.

given the high numbers of women/men of color who work behind the scenes in the music/beauty/fashion/PR world, I’d actually think she has been or could have been exposed to a very diverse world in the past few years. It’s honestly weird to me that there are never back-up dancers, make up artists, any non-famous people…

I ALWAYS wonder who is taking the photos that celebrities post on social media. Dollars to donuts, it’s an assistant. And dollars to donuts the assistant is a POC.

The problem is that we rarely talk about socialism without totalitarianism. Take the Nordic countries. I don’t know the true “artistic value” of stuff, but I’m super in love with the idea of “slow TV” and I know there is no way in hell any station in the US would air it because it’s not gonna necessarily bring in…

I think @HeresHoping (and I) are wondering, why does she order shoes one size too small, THEN fit them with the metal shank? Why go down a size, I would think performing, standing in them, would necessitate going up a size?

It was also the very white, very skinny people having the “fun” and looking like a catalog from back before catalogs got even as woke as they currently are (which is not very woke, but at least there are POC in them, unlike TSwifts 4th of July).

Idiots just think they can toss French words in anywhere and sound “erudite”...

BEARS. It all comes back again to BEARS

That concept made me vomit

LOL at any society that has the energy to distinguish to “lower-upper-middle class” 

Basically the only parenting guide I plan on using once we have kiddos.

Going through the full slide show at WWD: This one is my favorite, what does that say about me?

My understanding of him is, he thought “insufferable douchebag” would be a funny character, and he’s right, but he forgets to turn it off when he’s not “on stage.”
