It’s not like the only purpose of prison is to prevent repeat crimes. There’s obviously also an emphasis on punishment (a fact that I’m completely ok with). Let her stay in prison. If she truly rook responsibility for her actions, she should come to peace with that.

“The gruesomeness of their original crime should be a factor in sentencing...but not a factor on whether parole should be granted.”

“she looks back from prison on her involvement in the La Bianca murders (the night after the Tate massacre) in utter horror, shame, and guilt and takes full responsibility for her part in the crimes. I think it’s time to parole her.”

Possibly because Rick and Morty is getting people to watch Adult Swim that never have before. I know I’ve never wanted to watch it before Rick and Morty came along.

no, not really.

I meant that I don’t know what difference it would have made if she die BECAUSE the baby was half Targaryan versus her death having nothing to do with the dad being a Targaryan. That was your original point right?...

Rhaegar was pretty obsessed with prophesy, specifically those concerning the prince that was promised, and was also kind of a dick (he pretty much leaves his family to marry Lyanna and start a new one, which led to a revolution and thousands dead). So I don’t find it that unbelievable that he would give this new baby…

So you’re ok with dragons that breath red flames, but not blue flames, or ice or whatever that was? Seems like a pretty strange thing to fixate on.

I think that could certainly be the case (the Targaryans have some history of difficult births...Daenerys’ mom died in childbirth for example, and it is often used as evidence that Tyrion is half Targaryan). I’m not sure what difference that would make though.

Yeah, go fuck yourself.

Do Kim actually prove that Taylor lied? I remember it showing Taylor giving Kanye the ok to mention her, but I wasn’t clear if she gave what exactly he said her blessing. Those could be two very different things.

I wouldn’t be surprised if he’s forgotten who a lot of people are. Mental health doesn’t seem to be his strong suit.

This is a really good example of what’s wrong with liberal identity politics. Essentially, when it comes down to her beef with Kanye West, she’s wrong because she’s white and he’s black. If she were a black artist going after Kanye, you’d be celebrating her. But she’s not, so she’s “problematic”.

Sure. I don’t doubt that “look what you made me do” is a defense used by domestic abusers to rationalize what they’ve done. That said, as you indicate, it’s only one use of the phrase. There are countless other contexts when someone could say “look what you made me do”. There’s nothing intrinsically tying it to…

What’s the connection to domestic violence? It seems like a (stupid) song about her getting about at her (largely imagined) enemies. I don’t see the connection to domestic violence, and yes, I think you are reaching.

1) Their plan literally consisted of them jumping on top of the damn thing. If it was their plan from the start, it wasn’t a very good plan. You’re going to go all that way, and can’t be bothered to think of something that doesn’t rest almost entirely on luck? Kinda ridiculous. (Good thing it’s the only one that…

what’s a book wanker? you jack off books? you jack off to books? you jack off on books? that’s weird man.

Emphasis on “the general gist of it”. I bet the show and books only have the huge plot points in common at this point (like who lives/dies and who ends up on the iron throne).

Yeah, this episode was super dumb. I hope this isn’t how all of the remaining episodes aren’t going to be. It’s like Benioff and Weiss are fast forwarding through the conclusion because they want to move on.

He looks like a younger version of Bale from the Terminator movie he did.
