I got a strong impression that the White walker threat is going to be resolved next episode or shortly thereafter. So many of the conversations and new plot points are concerning Cersei and the post-war politcal landscape. There was no Cersei in this episode and there probably won’t be any Cersei during episode 3.… Read more
I gotta say, your takes on this week’s scenes are pretty bad: don’t care at all about Greyworm, the kidnapped, mutilated child soldier who learns his humanity, becomes a leader of his people and fights for a cause he chooses for the first time ever, and Missandei, the slave girl who is freed and chooses to serve her… Read more
Looking at him HURTS me. The whole while I’ve been watching him I want to SCREAM at him TO SIT UP FUCKING STRAIGHT. He’s at a funeral for a fucking head of state and is slouching in the pew like he’s a bored 6-year-old at mass. Or like a tired person on the subway. Read more

This post was planted by the GOP, right? I mean, I can’t think of a single reason anyone who calls themselves a progressive would trot out a list of reasons not to vote a few days before the election.
This is probably the best article I’ve seen explaining Splinter’s stance on this particular subject. I seriously disagree with it - even if you believe the country is “stuck on autopilot” and voting is too hard and/or soul-crushing, sitting on your hands and waiting for some magical candidate to come and lay waste to… Read more

So, if you don’t ask Monica Lewinsky about the Clinton affair, what other newsworthy topics are there? Does she really think the news consuming public actually cares about another bullshit TED Talk about cyberbullying from a vaguely familiar name?
