Yeah. Especially when you consider the entire Crownlands was basically being fed by The Reach and that requires bodies. There must have been an insane amount of small folk impacted by the Lannister attack.

Their former liege lords actually :) They were sworn to House Tyrell for a very long time. So whatever ‘honor’ Tarly was trying to preserve wasn’t really there. 

Far too many police officers think that hostility and yelling are the equal of command presence.

I’m guessing that poster is a STEM or nothing person at best. People who think everyone should be getting STEM degrees, want STEM degrees, are good at STEM etc. Apparently all other knowledge is irrelevant in society now aside from STEM or medicine or law.

That or they will “mysteriously” find child porn on her computer or some other sort of thing they can go after her for. 

Well in her defense she was basically raised on the run and was taught her sole job is to pop out babies. She probably has less education than any ruler in the show and her role model was an abusive insane brother and a merchant.

See I don’t care if he gets his vacation and sick leave because he earned it. What I care about is him going into another department with a clean record and continuing his behavior. This is how these terrible cops keep getting jobs as cops and why there are so many systemic problems. 

They need to stop allowing cops to quit without the disciplinary action being completed. Make it to where quitting before review is formal acceptance of the findings once completed and add it to their record. This is just a game for shitty cops who are shitty people to get another job to act shitty and carry a gun. 

If I was on a jury I could not convict a woman in the south for straight up shooting these motherfuckers at this point. What the fuck is wrong with the people who are coming up with this shit.

They have failed utterly at throw away lines to scope the army size or time passing the last two seasons.

Especially when a cop is afraid. It is really bad to have multiple people yelling at them, that just increases their fear and the likelihood that they’ll escalate shit.

I don’t think he needs to be on the crazy train. I think having all of her advisers telling her not to burn the place down but her doing it anyways would have been just fine :)

Part of me thinks that GRRM already has the next book done and was paid not to release it before the end of the show. I doubt we’re going to see GRRM fail to lay groundwork for character actions and fail to deliver on the plot points that have driven much of the series.

I enjoyed being punched in the face far more than getting kicked in the stones. ;)

I could totally see him getting murdered in front of her being a big enough push for her to go overboard. He’s tossed away a pardon which meant reclaiming his title and lands for her, he gave up his home for her essentially. He was a slave for her, killed for her, stayed with her at her lowest moment, and survived…

Jesus wanted him to have two Gulstream g650s.

That’s because by and large people want spectacle not substance and they conflate the two. Reading so many comments about how this episode was “top notch” or “amazing” just confirms this to me.

In fact she was told this before. All rulers are terrible but the best rulers are only terrible when they have no other choice. 

Thank you for writing all this out so I didn’t have to :) I’d give you more stars if I could. 

He is but he’s also a Stark. Half of his blood isn’t Targaryen. +5 to save versus madness.
