Arya: Exactly.

It DID make me switch the channel. And now I’m sitting here, wondering why we reward writers like this by talking endlessly about the latest horror show they’ve inflicted on us.
Wait a second. Shireen is still alive by the end of the books, so that whole sacrifice thing never happened.
But Davos knew what was coming, which is why he begged for Shireen to join him, and also visited her before he left. He’s realizing more and more that he’s bonded to someone who’s increasingly unhinged, and I think THAT will be interesting to watch. How do you maintain loyalty to someone who does horrible things? You…
Doran actually has some killer plot in the books. I’m assuming the show is setting it up to do a bit of a surprise when that turns up.
Davos knew what was coming. That’s why he begged to take Shireen with him, and why he went to see Shireen one last time with a gift.
The red wedding was a thing of mercy compared to this. People died, and they died quickly. The end.
I agree. I know everyone gets all mad when people say things like this, but hearing her screams tortured me all last night and through this morning. And it’s fiction. Some things aren’t worth it. A television show - entertainment - isn’t worth it.
This. . . this is actually pretty good. Except only one targaryen was really mad. The rest were okay.
I think they lingered pretty extensively on Dany touching Jorah so that the audience will remember. Likely, Dany will be fine but Mellisandei is done for.
Yep. Worst. Spy. Ever.
He knew what was coming. Davos is doing nothing but being vaguely disappointed, which he can’t mention for fear of getting burned at the stake too.
He’s made plenty of choices that led up to this. And at the same time, there’s no coming back from this — this is sort of a defining choice for Stannis, and one that will probably destroy him in the end.
Yes, especially when Stannis says, “How did ONE GUARD not sound an alarm?!” They killed thousands of horses, all of the food, and no one noticed or attempted to save anything? Those twenty men somehow got through the snow that Roose Bolton couldn’t dig out either.
Got it. So now science is not good enough when it comes down to choosing treatment and therapy for an illness. Got it. These aren’t my opinions, as you repeatedly state, these are findings in large scale scientific studies. Get back to me when you’re preformed one of those.
That’s true, which is why lots of us hate the Sansa-as-Jeyne storyline. She’s been through too much to now cycle through another horror-filled plotline.
1) Saying that gender reassignment surgery and intense hormone reconstruction is not empirically supported is not the same as advocating murdering transgenders or even being impolite to them on the street. You’re obviously not all that intelligent if you have some weird knee-jerk reaction like this.
I get that gender ROLES is a societal construct. But first of all, incomplete Y penetrance (even the genetic terminology sounds aggressively masculine) isn’t all that common. I don’t like using real androgyny to force Jenner’s experience here, because the two issues aren’t at all similar.
He has decided that changing your sex is a fiction. This isn’t a value judgement, it’s basic biology.
