Completely forgot the way people online talk about the sex scenes in this book. “Does anyone else think the luridly described sex scenes written by the legendarily brutalised protagonist are kinda unpleasant 😭 I felt uncomfortable reading them” - now read that again, but slowly.

there are a lot of female characters where you can say that lesbian sex would fix them but it's kind of even more fun when it wouldn't. like clearly she wants to be having it but it would make everything worse and ruin her life. and i would like to see it.

Also Fritz’s full name being FitzChivalry (literally “son of Chivalry”) is so sad… at this point in time his entire identity is defined by him being the bastard son of his father, a prince. And he didn’t even seem to have (or doesn’t remember) his name given to him by his birth mother. He’s only six years old and is barely treated like a person, originally kept with the animals.

Regal, Verity, and Burrich talking about him and what they should do with him, what his presence means for the line of succession/politics IN FRONT OF HIM like he wasn’t even there made me so upset. Like wtf get this kid out of there, give him back to his mom!!

Israel drops more bombs within the last few years than were dropped during the entirety of ww2 and its significantly impacted the entire planet, warming more of the atmosphere and hastening this process for what little there was achieved during the 2020 quarantine when emissions sank. One of the worlds largest polluters is the united states military, with emissions and waste rivaling the entire output of industrializing countries.

Men who talk shit about gold diggers underestimate the grit it takes to put up with an insufferable man, even when money is involved. We should be thanking them for their service like they are veterans.

there are too many movies. lets start by getting rid of christopher nolan

i love when women have a deeper or raspier voice. its very charming
