texting me to tell me to check my voicemail is pretty much the only way I’m going to check my voicemail though. 

there’s another article somewhere around here where they positsthat the reason everybody is so angry about small and seemingly unimportant things is because they can’t really do much about the big things they are angry about and this is a way to channel it. And basically yes, everybody is angry and bitter and grieving…

But apparently it was the most important thing. Communism was just a red herring. Those of us that thought it was about something other than petty political squabbling and the wheel just going round and round ad infinitem were wrong. 

But the books are not called A Game of Thrones, the series is called A Song of Ice and Fire, implying that all of that is relevant and really I think the problem is there was enough book/show information overlap, even for people that never read the books that we expected more than we got.

Right, either Dany is a ruthless, cruel, ambitious but terrible ruler -basically Cersei 2.0 and becomes a villain(and her actually ruling with maybe a time skip to show how badly) or she’s a Shakesperean level tragic hero with a fatal flaw and an unescapable mental degeneration that leads to her downfall(and they need…

“Danny ends up on the throne, a good ruler, the exact thing everybody expected all along?” Really? Because it seems like everybody except hard core Dany fans expected her to become the Mad Queen. Her becoming the Mad Queen didn’t subvert any expectations. Her winning the throne and then realizing she really didn’t…

then send bran to the woods and stock it with arya and a couple of fodder bodies, let everyone else hide out on the iron islands, bing, bang, boom, it’s take  care of and they can go back to playing with politics. 

yes, which makes it seem like the entire Night King plot was a way to create multiple weaknesses to lead to Dany’s downfall, not important in and of itself, which the plot and story implied desperately for 8 years. 

all could have been accomplished by other means without spending years building up to this horrifying, great threat. One of the analysis was that GOT was going to be an entirely different show after the Night King finally made it, everything would change in the aftermath and nope, it was exactly the same show. Those…

or maybe not. I mean it’s a kid’s lacrosse game. They kinda thought their parents came there because they cared about them, not to fight with other parents about something. It’s okay to care about more than one thing even if you don’t think the things are equal in importance. It’s okay to prioritize one thing in the…

thank you. This isn’t about vitamins, it’s about branding which is about money. It sucks because he is a kid and even for an adult some of this shit is bound to be traumatizing but he’s a kid in business and these are business rivals working to take him down. 

I mean Robert never wanted the throne and was a shit King so that’s not really a good qualification. 

This. It is miserable and frustrating and definitely not healthy. I tend too, to keep making myself angrier by reading articles and comments that set me off more. I keep telling myself to stop it. 

he isn’t older than her.  He was born in the middle of rebellion that destroyed her family. She was around before him but not by much. 

you mean the irrational entitlement of expecting satisfaction for your money? If every one of those million signatures only got HBO for one month for this last season to watch GOT that’s $15 million dollars. It’s a drop in the bucket for HBO of course because they didn’t just pay for one month or one season.

Is it though? The temptation of absolute power is pretty standard stuff in fantasy novels. Heros resist it, villains don’t, that’s often how they become villains. The rise of a villain from the villain’s pov obviously has been and can be done well(which is why some people have said they tried to Heisenberg Dany ) and…

She didn’t steal them because they are fucking people, not property. And it’s Dragon’s Bay, thank you very much. 

yep, they needed to use Dany and her army to get rid of Cersei and then kill her off to get her out of the way. Just like they used her army as fodder for the White Walkers until Arya could do her thing. I mean sure, maybe intervention ahead of time could have stopped her from going off the deep end. Sure , maybe…

“Everyone got happy endings!”Drogon would like to speak to you in the back for a moment. 

Nobody is mentioning the plot twist. The Starks have been the real villain/manipulators of the show the whole time. Who stirred up shit in the first place, kicking off the War of the Five Kings? Ned. Joffrey was a monster but if he’d been Robert’s blood born monster, Ned wouldn’t have done anything. Who hyped up the…
