Okay, I am really obsessed with this joke. I literally reblog it every time I see it.
I would too ngl
Oh so they ruined Daeron too. I see I see. Instead of leading the entire army to avenge his sister, brother, and nephew, he doesn't want anything. Nothing new here: they did the same with Alicent and Helaena.
Real Daeron would never have said that.
Ive seen a few people get mad about the tweet that says "this has been talked about extensively, youre just 21" on the basis that the poster is referring to a trans girl talking about silence of the lambs.
And look, okay, listen. I have a film degree. Im not in any an expert on cinema nor am I a film scholar but I do have some higher formal education on the topic, and I am a trans person who has, unfortunately, been 21. Here's my 2 cents:
Firstly, trans-coded villains in horror movies (namely the "man in a dress" archetype) is pretty cinema 101. It IS so extensively talked about that you were probably drawing an eye in the back of the lecture hall if you dont remember anything being said about it. If you ever take a horror movie class specifically then you are absolutely guaranteed to have this conversation and have the plethora of scholarship about it thrown at you for required reading.
Secondly, I do not like this idea that simply being a bit rude or short with someone of a particular demographic is always and exclusively rooted in a prejudice towards the identity group(s) they are a part of. There is a VERY big difference between active transphobia and just being a bit of a dick, and conflating the two is going to make things very messy and potentially dangerous. For starters, you are going to create an extremely paranoid and jumpy bunch of young trans people who are absolutely convinced that the entire world is out to kill them when they inevitably encounter some random asshole in the real world. And you are going to give a whole bunch of conservatives a whole bunch of ammunition to say that we think every minor inconvenience or moment of discomfort is a targeted attack against us, frankly because you are acting like it is.
Additionally, every 21 year old has a very weird superiority complex. I did, you did/do/will. It just comes with the territory. Youre having your first taste of true independence and are probably in undergrad, which is an environment that drip-feeds you a lot of rewards for doing essentially what you just did in high school again but at a slightly higher difficulty with less social ostracism. If you live on your own or in the dorms with other 21 year olds, you will all just feed into each other's superiority complexes. You end up convinced that you and your friends are the smartest people alive and the first ones to ever come up with certain ideas, that I promise have been thought of by millions of 21 year olds before you. This includes "has anyone else noticed that trans-coded villains are common in horror movies?" And I think its justified to have a bit of a reality check in someone saying "yes, everyone has, this has been discussed extensively for generations, youre just 21."
Finally, I do not appreciate in the slightest the response to this tweet being "silence of the lambs has no artistic merit and should be scrubbed from the media landscape entirely because of Buffalo Bill." If you personally are not comfortable with/do not have the ability to look past the trans-coded villain archetype you dont have to watch it, but to act like the presence of a poorly-aged trope completely negates all the very real positive impact a foundational film did for modern horror is infuriatingly anti-intellectual and betrays your one-dimensional morality around media, as well as your complete inability to look at something objectively.
As one final thought, the idea that a snippy tweet about being frustrated with typical 21 year old behavior is "ageist" is the most 21 year old shit ive ever heard. Truly impressive levels of missing the point.

"No gloom can hold my heart for long in Shor's bless'd hall, where no shadows lie."
Fabian was so right, y’all will bend over backwards to defend a Targaryen, but as soon as a non-white haired character does something (which 9 times out of 10 is nowhere near as bad or is equal to what the Targs did) y’all suddenly care about morals and right & wrong and honor 😂😂😂
"it's a history book so it's biased blah blah"
Okay but, as a professional historian, history is a bunch of competing narratives, sure, but some of those are still vastly more likely than others, and even though pure historical truth is forever out of our reach, your job is still to take a stance and, crucially, defend it. With evidence. And logic. Some sources are more reliable than others. And some events simply cannot be argued with due to their very public nature. So when F&B gives us different versions of a story, it's up to the writers to determine the most likely one based on the reliability of the sources and the inworld logic, not just pick the one they think would look "coolest". And that still leaves the instances where what F&B says is simply what happened, without a shadow of a doubt. Those things should not be changed. And any changes they DO make should make sense within the established rules of the universe.
Examples:
Aemond and Vhagar killing Lucerys by accident? Perfectly acceptable. We only know the outcome, we were not there in the sky with them, so it very well could have happened.
But Daemon being the one to kill Vaemond with no input from Rhaenyra? Simply not canon, because Rhaenyra feeding him to Syrax was a matter of public record at the time that no maester could conceivably later erase without a bunch of people going "wait, my dad was there when the Velaryons came to court to demand justice for it". Therefore, the show should not have changed that simply to make Rhaenyra more palatable.
Criston beating Joffrey to death instead of killing him in a tourney? Defies in universe logic, because a Kingsguard breaking guest right and committing murder during a wedding would have been executed.
Alicent the deeply religious woman kinslaying her way across a warn torn continent? Give me a break!

I can't believe I'm posting about this again but this time about my own country. This morning, an earthquake of 7.4 magnitude took place in the municipality of San José del Palmar, Chocó. The earthquake affected several cities and municipalities, including Cali, Pereira, Manizales and Quibdó, a lot of families were left without nothing and each minute the number of lives lost just keep increasing. I heavily encourage you to keep my people in your hearts, and if you want to donate I'm sharing some resources here. For the record, Chocó is one of the departments in my country that has been overlooked for years and years, they had been ignored and not long ago they also suffered from fires.

Helaena always deserved so much better. And no matter how much Rhaenyra supposedly felt bad for her ‘sweet sister’, she clearly never did.
By not controlling Daemon and allowing him to do as he pleased, she essentially okayed Jaehaerys’ death.
She force feeds her sister when she did not want to eat, not because she cared for her, because she wanted to control Helaena.
She separates her sister from her daughter to cause anguish for an already grieving Helaena.
The show writing is terrible; the Showrunners comparing Hightowers to Nazis is wild because there is no comparable ideology here and Targs have more comparable aspects in part than Hightowers. Feudalistic superiority is one thing, Targaryen exceptionalism is another.
And what is Helaena’s death going to lead to? In the book, it is the Storming of the Dragonpit ultimately. Is this going to do anything? Is her death going to mean anything?
Hotd writers workbook each season:
-Sexually humiliate team green for shock value by inventing non-f&b scenes.
-Turn a civil war into a psychosexual lesbian story between one bad (victim) woman who needs to be constantly punished and one good (victim) woman who is constantly restrained by her gender.
-Glaze girlbossified victim rhaenyra, her feminist sex-trafficker advisor and to an extent her pdf daddy husband (ironically even GRRM was not up their bottoms as much as ryan condal and his writers are).
-Humble alicent through SA by framing her as constant victim of her own side to 1) justify her supporting rhaenyra over her kids 2) for #them to go > she deserves it for daring to support her son against queen rhaenyra, the greens are SO horrible, this is what inventing patriarchy does!
-For the gazillionth time, show how immoral criston cole is.
-Repeatedly depict all of tg as deviant evil misogynists and all tb as goody two shoes feminists by adding more non-book scenes, nuance be damned.
-Milk daenerys and asoiaf prophecy as reserved quota.
-Give most tg screentime to alicent who isnt even tg anymore but another rhaenyra stan.
-Add plagiarized dialogues to show how simultaneously girlbossy and victimised all hotd women are, particularly rhaenyra.
-Allude how every medieval woman against rhaenyra MUST be a pick-me hypocrite woman for trump and every woman for rhaenyra is the most perfect badass feminist ever lived, there is no inbetween.
-Only and only rhaenyra is allowed to love, cry, feel for her children in this show.
-Bare minimum characterization for the velaryons. Their portion of tb screentime is given to rhaenyra, daemon and mysaria.
-Make the greens weaker, more divided and pitiful for #their gratuitous gooning.
-Remove all f&b nuance that GRRM wrote and reiterated in his blog to turn the story of the entire dance into tb best, tg worst propaganda for fave self-inserts.
*Best Show Ever!*
Helaena's death CAUSED the storming of the dragon pit, the riots in KL, and Rhaenyra being OVERTHROWN by the people. Beloved Queen Helaena's death did all that, but now they've squandered it by turning her suicide into an end of season shock moment that amounts to nothing. It should have been the inciting incident of the finale, not a last minute scene to vaguely foreshadow Rhaenyra's downfall NEXT SEASON. They'll be lucky if the ga even remembers it happening 😒
