Because she clearly wants them to go away? She didn’t want Jon to go to Daenerys, didn’t want Jon to submit to Daenerys (which is why Daenerys is here, as far as knows), is complaining about their presence non-stop. What makes you think she does want them there? She doesn’t have the authority to send them away,

She doesn’t speak to practical issues, she brings up food only to basically say she wants Dany and co. to go away. The Night King has a dragon; this is not the time to be trying to banish the two dragons that are your only chance of stopping them.

Bran said the Night King had a dragon in the courtyard; Sansa was standing right beside him and gets a reaction shot shared with Jon.

The Walkers will be arriving in a matter of days.  They aren’t going to starve in that time.  Moreover, Sansa clearly doesn’t want them there, objecting even to the dragons despite knowing the Night King has a dragon.  That is insane.

Nothing Sansa has done suggests she’s one of the smartest politicians in Westeros. She consistently acts bullheadedly and without any sort of strategy, and her results speak for themselves; her attempts at diplomacy consistently fail, she isn’t good at big picture thinking, she consistently mistrusts the wrong

The armies Jon brought with him dwarf the paltry forces of House Glover.  Rudimentary cost-benefit analysis; if Sansa’s smart, she would see that.  She knows they’re facing a dragon.

Sansa opposed him going to make allies as well.  She sincerely seems to think the North can fight the Army of the Dead by itself, even knowing they have a dragon.

Sansa absolutely did antagonize her. That’s why all the other characters are talking about how hostile she was.

I’ve lately had trouble finding the time to get reading done, but I’ve started on Volker Kutscher’s Goldstein, the third of his series of German detective novels set in the Weimar era.

The writers imply that they do know that.

I wasn’t the one who said that, Benioff did.

There’s an enormous amount of story before Dany lands on Dragonstone.  That wouldn’t work at all.

John Bradley was far and away the acting standout for this episode. Terrific work from him in the scene with Daenerys and Jorah.

Winter Town was always supposed to be there, but they avoided showing it.

GRRM has repeatedly and vehemently denied any interpretation of the books as nihilistic.  I don’t, frankly, see how anybody can read the books without picking up that GRRM is a romantic at heart.

Yeah, I don’t think Steve is really that different from when we first meet him. Indeed, I’d say that’s kind of the point, as laid out in his conversations with Dr. Erskine in The First Avenger, where Erskine tells him, in essence, don’t change, don’t compromise your own conscience no matter what happens or what you’re

Whatever you think about D&DB and their handling of the show, the characters have stayed true to who they were when the books were guiding things and after that ended.

1) It is well established that Littlefinger has tons of little birds across Winterfell.

Not really. There were always important characters in the movies who had no special heritage (Han, obviously; in TFA, two of the three leads had no special backstory teased and they were important).

There is zero reason to doubt this. It’s a public incident and they’d have no reason to make it up. The maesters are known to be skeptical of magic, if anything.
