honestly hilarious that the lannister siblings are all history freaks in different direction. cersei rolls her eyes that jaime doesn't know what the second blackfyre rebellion was about while he rattles off the tale of ser luthor pisseryon of daeron i's kingsguard, who served for all of seven moons before he died shitting himself en route to dorne. meanwhile tyrion's sitting in the corner reading maester leomore's neo-myrxist critique of archmaester hargreave's account of the Storming of the Dragonpit (The Warrior Himself: Examining the Dying of the Dragons in the Light of the Seven) and not paying attention to it one bit because he’s moping about how everyone in kings landing hates him, the imp, because he’s ugly and rich, and not because he’s a feudal overlord who is fundamentally detached from the immediate concerns of his starving subjects

I gotta go on a Catelyn Stark rant okay? we shoulda known those boys didn't understand the books when they decided that 1. catelyn stark was michelle farley's age and 2. styled her so fucking matronly. I think michelle farley is gorgeous, but you can just tell how they styled her throughout the show that we're supposed to see her as "ugly." and then of course the added blah blah nonsense monologuing about jon snow randomly and then CUTTING lady stoneheart. Catelyn Stark is literally THE most active character, she's running around an entire continent all day every day giving us the lore, the history, the culture, telling us the characters, making two big blunders that push the narrative forward while also always being right, all the while being a rumination on a mother's grief during wartime. you can just tell those stupid morons skimmed her chapters.... anyway...ignore me

Exhibit 38484622850 that DnD were the worst to happen to ASOIAF

I love house md. it’s gay, its homophobic. it’s ableist, it has some of the best disability representation I’ve seen. medical malpractice and felonies are committed pretty much every episode, some of these aren’t even related to the case. for as bonkers as everything gets it never stops being a medical drama. it a fucking sherlock adaptation

i still think the best thing about lizzie/darcy is how almost nobody knew it was happening like it was SCANDALOUS and charged and they constantly oscillated between wanting to jump each other or jump each other's bones and everyone was too busy watching the vanilla trainwreck of bingley/jane and the victorian equivalent of a nuclear bomb that was lydia and wickham to realize that a whole THING was going on right in front of their respective perfectly boiled vegetables

Henry Marchbanks Winter is so funny without trying to be. He’s like, “Turns out our Shakespearean poison drama won’t work. In light of that, we will be instead shoving him off a cliff.”
