OMG stop citing sexism as the reason for his precedence! Jon is first in line because he’s Rhaegar’s kid, not because he’s a boy! Jon is Prince William, and Dany’s Prince Edward.

“Monetizing” “borrowed” “content” is “hard.”

You have the best take, and deserve more stars.

Yep. There’s also this thing where people can’t stand a functional couple. Just because you haven’t experienced it DOESN’T MEAN IT DOESN’T EXIST.

It’s dumb and incredibly bitter. They are pretty honest about their struggles, which I think most people appreciate. I’d rather read about that than be forcefed some fairytale bullshit about how perfect everything is for them all the time. They are public figures... so, yeah. Sometimes these moments are public. Did…

Not that snark has ever really been lacking at Jez, or that it isn’t deserved or fun to engage in sometimes, but this piece leaves a really bad taste in my mouth. It’s mean-spirited for no good reason, and sounds like jealousy, tbh. Also, it’s centered around one podcast episode that came out over a year ago. Just bad…

They’re also incredibly open about the fact that couples counseling has been a big part of their relationship since day one, which is refreshing.

Subject (and strange choice of target for scorn) aside, this isn’t even an article. There’s no through line, no theory, no point you ever get to. It’s just a collection of quotes from people with no underlying theme to hold it together. What was your conclusion after listening to all these interviews and podcasts?…

I may be mistaken, but I believe these two do a decent amount of charity work. I also greatly appreciate his openness about his struggles/anxiety. This is dumb.

Damn them for not being more controversial!

...wow.

sorry they’re happy in public

Well, and the part that I find so toxic (I shudder to use this word, but it seems apt) about the attitude is how it displays this obsession with Davidson—and presumably this is supposed to hold for the average dude—demonstrating worthiness for female attention entirely through material means. And then we turn around…

It’s been proven that strong family ties are incredible boosters for mental health and a long life.

I think it’s a particularly stupid American idea that everyone needs to waste their money on housing in order to prove their worth as good little capitalists. That I have to be defensive and have an excuse for it to be OK for me to live with my mom is absurd. I would live with my mom even if I didn’t have this mental…

I really really thought we’d put all that “living with your parents is super lame” thing behind us already. There are so many valid reasons why people choose to live with their parents!

I said this in a comment that will probably say in the grays because Dirt Bag is no longer that fun and therefore is less popular, but I live with my mom because (like Pete) I have a serious, chronic mental illness. I am also employed and we share living expenses. But no one cares about me as much as my mom does, and…

He also bought the house for his mom. The frequency of his jokes involving his mom are pretty solid evidence that they’re very close. I know that if I were single and bouncing from woman to woman in my mid-twenties, recovering from addiction, fighting crippling depression and Crohn’s Disease, I’d probably go live with…

Plus it certainly sounds like a little stability could help him after his roller coaster of a last two years - addiction treatment, mental health issues, constant reporting on his romantic life.

So what? Maybe he likes his mom? Maybe she keeps him grounded. I truly think that people who haven’t lost a parent can’t understand how much that experience makes you value the one you have left.
