Is it my imagination that Ignaty is giving both Dowd and the camera bedroom eyes/intense eye contact the whole time? Maybe he just has Resting Seductive Face?

Even if he doesn't finish, he doesn't owe you f**-all. He's a real person, not an entertainment factory. So tired of people whining & insulting him for failing to fill our bottomless need for entertainment.

Yeah, after the greyscale -> pie, I had to pause for about 5 minutes to get out my uncomfortable laughter and bewilderment

What did it mean when she said "it's not you" at the end, though? I interpreted that as maybe it's another surviving direwolf (Shaggydog?), not Nymeria?

Also, love that they were like- "lesbian sex scene?…. jk! Both will die and/or be raped." (Not that I'd trust them to handle a lesbian sex scene in a non male-gaze-y way anyway)

Excellent idea Jon, choking Littlefinger and telling him you'll directly stand in the way of obtaining the thing he most desires, then leaving, giving him the perfect opening to manipulate Sansa against you. He's only the slipperiest, most traitorous person around, and has cleanly wiped away everyone who ever opposed…

True, except it's unclear whether any of the sand snakes + Ellaria are alive? I thought the woman's body laid on the mast at the end looked suspiciously like Ellaria.

It has to have been different- it was on her face, I remember, and I also don't remember her looking like the Hound after.

This reminds me of "It's Such a Beautiful Day" ("Má vlast" as soundtrack, monotone voice, brilliant wisdom casually understated), but not in a rip-off way, plus it's got some decent insights of its own. Nice job, internet.

Oh yeah, I definitely agree personality changes over the lifespan- I think most psychologists fall at various places on the sliding scale between 'it's determined by early upbringing/genetics' and '…by lifelong/adult experiences and environments', and no one with any credibility falls entirely at one extreme, imo.…

Attachment styles originated in developmental psych to characterize different forms of emotional relationships that can develop between a child & parent in the early stages of life. Some psychologists- those who think that experiences in early childhood have extensive, irreversible effects on your personality as an…

Backing up Officer Meow Meow here. Like, you can argue that it was a good scene (I think it was), but nothing is "beyond race" in the same way that nothing is "beyond gender." I know you didn't intend it this way, but this argument has the intentional naïveté of "oh, I don't see race or gender, everyone is just an…

Was anyone else really put off by Paris running a fertility business? At the onset it seemed like a funny concept, but I was just cringing through all the scenes where she kept referring to the surrogates as "breeders," simultaneously talking about them like they were animals and sexualizing them. I get that Paris is…

Yeah, the pasta one especially has some elements that are exactly the same as "Western Spaghetti" by the Guacomole people- https://www.youtube.com/wat…

I love the little art reference in Prince Gumball's "Dreams" during his game with Butterscotch Butler (to me, it looks just like "The Nightmare" by Fuseli).

A hell movie, I guess? & Agreed

I'm not sure if it was intentional, but I liked the apparent symbolism of the way Sansa killed Ramsay. People have been talking about how the torture shows the brutality she's now capable of, and I feel like she used the hounds, in a way, to reflect what's been done to her- in the same way that she lost her idealism…

"It’s a minor miracle that no one says 'don’t go there or 'awk-ward!'"- Actually, there's a line in the trailer: "well that was awkward!" No cheesy buzzwords left untapped.

I'm seeing an alternate Adventure Time history unfolding here:
"But everything changed when the Candy Kingdom attacked…"

Their relationship is one my favorite elements of the show so far because it's such an accurate depiction of the beauty of childhood relationships- Steven and Connie are just enjoying each others' presence and friendship without any self-awareness or anxiety about how the relationship should be labeled or what role…
