Jaime and Cersei are actually Aerys’ children rather than Tywin’s.

...that’s because the first season didn’t really have any ships? And nobody says it doesn’t have a fandom, but a lot of Cartinelli fans seem to think they are majority, and sorry, you’re not, I follow this show across multiple platforms. People over on Facebook are INSANELY pro-Sousa, the whole “same-sex relationships…
That said, feel free to ship whatever you want, just know when to admit it’s not going to happen. I’ve got plenty of ships that are all in my head and in fanfic...*cough*Steve&Sam*cough*
Really? Because to me those were by far the best parts of the episode simply because Jarvis tells her she’s perfect after finding out rather than, oh i dunno, hear her call herself a monster for it and say nothing yes I am talking about Bruce and Natasha ugh. Now THAT was terrible writing.
You’re kidding yourselves about the “large part of the fanbase bit.” Tumblr in particular helps create little bubbles of shippers who don’t realize that outside of that bubble their ship is not that popular.

Juuust gonna leave this here for all the people who agree with me:
That just happens to be named after a Daoist mythological place and look like a city in Asia...
Psst: sign the petition and spread it around if you feel that strongly!
Asian man and black woman is the least common interracial pairing in America (0.22% of all marriages), fwiw. Series would be pretty groundbreaking for doing that.
Aaaand K’unl’un is literally a place name in Daoist mythology. Plus everything about it is designed to look East Asian. So...no, this argument is stupid.
^^I support this, or having him be Asian-American who is very distanced from his background (third-generation, fits in with white culture, etc.).
There’s a better word for it: Orientalist. Where “the East” is full of mystic knowledge, but only in its past, and the true inheritors of that cultural wisdom are white people. And yeah, K’unlun in the comics may be alien etc. but K’unlun is literally a place out of Daoist legend, where he learns East Asian martial…
Uh, Asian-Americans are often treated as outsiders in Asia. Heck, make him half-Asian, from his mom’s side, and you can keep the name, and the outsider status, but reduce the whole “white guy is better at being Asian than the Asians” issue that is ticking people off. It’s Orientalist baggage and getting around it…
A rich Asian-American kid, a couple generations removed from immigration, wouldn’t know jack squat about what it’s like to be a working-class black guy who’s on the run for a crime he didn’t commit. He’d have to deal with discrimination, but it would be of a completely different kind. Hell, it might even HELP the…
Yeah, it really would’ve been better if they’d left it unexplained. His father could still have used the stem cells and enhanced his power - it’s how he GOT his powers, after all - but we don’t need a mechanism for his power’s delivery. Especially one that doesn’t make much sense - how do you psychologically overcome…
To me it should’ve gone in either one of two directions: share itself down to a shorter run and keep the focus on Jessica and Kilgrave, or actually give its other story lines and characters fuller development rather than having them only seem to exist when Jessica is around (like, maybe have Trish’s job be actually…
I agree with a lot of this, but I’m commenting on this site for the first time just because I couldn’t believe (1) that you liked how this series handled Trish, who I felt spent way too much of this series nothing more than a satellite of her best friend, before managing to give her something interesting at the very…
