I'm sure I remember her saying "Sorry about the art thing" after she knocked on the door, after Emily came out to her sitting in the car etc.

I watched this last night and it only occurred to me now: Is the "go to Hell" scene a departure from the comics in terms of what the Word can make people do? Eg, when Jesse makes Hoover count the grains of sand, a fundamental point is that Hoover is not well-equipped to do so, and so it takes him a long time. This…

Yep, complete with terse, almost-snapped apology because Tulip is a "badass" and characters who are "badass" express emotions poorly.

[briefly reveals feminist power-level] Tulip continues to annoy me as the apotheosis of a cack-handed dudebro conception of a "strong" "female" character. The formula is simply to ctrl-c a grab-bag of the more toxic elements of patriarchally-informed masculinity and crtl-v it onto a character with a vagina. Most, if…

I read the comics when they were first coming out and what's been shown of Quincannon is a big departure. I won't spoil what the big reveal is, but I don't recall any possible connection to what we've seen in the show (I'm not complaining about the changes, just saying it's a definite departure).

I really, really, really didn't understand the final scene, at all. I thought they were going to have Quincannon be the broomsticks to Jesse's Mickey Mouse, if you get me. Like he'd start trying to stone people for working on Sunday or wearing mixed fabrics or something like that. I don't get how his killing those…

He doesn't believe Euron = Daario, does he? IIRC he says there's a reasonable amount of evidence for it and it's not logically impossible, but he doesn't personally subscribe.

Man, Preston's really blowing up now. And I don't know about the hero, but he has me about convinced Sweetrobin is at minimum a greenseer, as well as a few other things.

Jaime and Jaime.

What is hype may never die, but rises again, stronger and more fucking confirmed than ever.

Maybe look the word up before you start condemning people to death for knowing its definition.

It's not censorship, since they aren't being prevented from saying whatever they're saying. That's what censorship is. Anything that isn't that, isn't censorship.

"To anyone who is typing the obvious rebuttal to my deeply flawed position, please go fuck yourself."

Jaaaaysus, shore what koind a Praycher are yoo…

Maybe GTA has desensitised me, but my only objection to the waterboarding bit was that I felt like it was a wasted gag. All the build-up of Archer's obnoxious pooh-poohing is so obviously a build to that fast cut; a rug-pull where Archer laughingly no-sells the waterboarding, through several refills even, would have…

It's a shame Latin isn't still taught at school. "Manicula" is an excellent nickname for Trump on multiple levels.

"watching an orphaned 13 year old hung to death."

I think we're at least meant to think she has, if only temporarily. The way they've coded it is that the waif always knows when Arya is lying. If they were trying to make me think that Arya's just learned how to lie better, that didn't land, for me at least. It seems simpler to say she actually has become no-one. For…

Everything goes ballistic once Daenerys sails for Westeros at the start of Book 2.

The same trick was used in TDK, but Batman was able to warn the cops before they stormed the place. I remember because he warns them by texting "Clowns Are Hostages" to Gordon and my band-namedar pinged pretty hard. That they actually stormed the place did make me think of Dennis Reynolds in Fargo.
