Yeah. honestly with the extra time what I would have liked to have seen is a more Thrones-ian finish. The bones were there for it.

Of course it was coming, we just don’t like the way it was executed. Also you’d expect to see a little inner conflict from her based on the past seasons but instead all we’ve seen is her very directly trying to be the mad queen and others trying to stop her. I think something that would’ve been more believable for her…

I will not blame Elizabeth Warren for GOT’s disappointments!!!

A similar argument has been made defending the finales of Lost and Battlestar, and I’m going to say the same thing: “while [theme(s) in question] have technically been present since the beginning, so were quite a few others that the show has spent a lot more care building up over the years.

I don’t know why they wouldn’t post about it. they get a ton of traffic from Venezuela posts

Love our incestuous corporate media. As abhorrent as it is lucrative!

Hellworld is powerful. 

Imagine, if you will, growing up thinking “lol brown people dumb and bad” but never being able to say that out loud. And then imagine someone comes along and basically says the same thing, but in a way that you think a smart person would. And then the NYT basically endorses his heinous views as highly rational and…

He’s literally every super annoying kid you knew in middle school. 

Much as I’m not big on shaming anyone for their inborn traits, when someone has an inborn trait that automatically provokes interest, and uses that inborn trait to be a raging dickhead—well, let’s say I’m not too proud to shame the shit out of a racist dickbag by mocking aspects of themselves they cannot help, because…

It legitimately terrifies me how many people are coming out of high school with political opinions formed by YouTube personalities like this. 

“Kermit the Frog sounds more manly than this guy”
