I voted for Sanders in the primary and Clinton in the election. “Bernie Bros cost Clinton the election” is the political equivalent of “Millennials are killing Applebee’s.” It’s been pointed out elsewhere that it’s ultimately the candidate’s job to convince voters, not the voters’ job to fall in line, so I won’t…

Also, why am I still showing up grey?

Another factor, I think, may be that representation has improved somewhat across the spectrum, and therefore female audience are not as dependent on this one genre for woman protagonists and woman-centered stories. There was always an assumption that women prefer this particular kind of story, but it seems just as…

Ungrey, me, goddammit.

This guy is in line right behind Hannity for Head Moron of Fox News. Few things in the world worse than a smug idiot.

Or, you know, just have her story conclude in a way that’s satisfying for her arc.

I’m still not 100% convinced that Cersei is even really pregnant.

When the hell did they go left?

He claimed at the beginning of the series that he would tell him when he got back from King’s Landing, but obviously that never happened.

There had been some problems with the writing for a while, but I think a line was definitely crossed this season.

Sadly, I think the show has pretty much given up on Varys having any kind of arc or significant role.

If the show was smarter than it is, it would play this up next season. If you’re another house negotiating with the Starks, you can come correct and deal with them honestly and at the very least you’ll get honesty in return. Or you can try to fuck them over, and get a visit from Arya.

Okay, but to what end? What was he going to manipulate Sansa to do once she was in power and under his control? Puppetmaster of the North seems like a pretty quaint goal for this character. I know Littlefinger’s intentions have usually been fairly opaque, but I think we should have had a better idea of what his angle…

Yeah, but to do what exactly? Littlefinger used to be such a big-picture thinker, but gradually got lost in little minutiae that seemed small-time compared to some of the plots he’d been involved with earlier on. His defining line was “Chaos is a ladder,” suggesting that he viewed chaos as a means to an end, but he…

This whole storyline was a huge wasted opportunity. For all the grandiose 5D chess conspiracies Littlefinger has been involved with, seeing him brought down as part of a relatively petty scheme with no discernible goal was anticlimactic. Does anyone know exactly what his endgame was in Winterfell, other than “sow…

A lot of this makes more sense than I thought it would; at the very least, it’s what should happen. I really can’t believe that Arya would be that clumsy or stupid, that she and Sansa would be at each other’s throats immediately, or that either of them would fail to suspect Littlefinger of playing them against each…

For the amount of bullshit plot armor that has been granted to other, lamer characters this season, it would be the absolute worst if the show brought Arya back to Winterfell just to kill her off. Her arc up until this season has been about her quest for revenge, and if she has to die then it needs to be in pursuit of…
