Witches Get Stuff Done

Just your average dork of a 30 year old lady. This blog is a mess and I've had it for over a decade now. Enjoy the madness!

hey, popcorn!! i've basically been re-reading everything related to TB & TG and i just love how you balance Alicent's desire to be like the Targaryens with her distaste of their customs - like how she doesn't like to be reminded of Viserys's parents and grandparents but also she dreamed of having a babe with silver-gold hair and purple eyes. In that especially, i think it shows how contradictory and hypocritical she is, even so early on

Hi there! 🩷

You're braver than I'm, but I should give it a thorough re-read as well (especially of part 4) to make sure I'm not missing anything!

Hehe, thank you, I think it's one of those cases where you don't really want to be the person you just want the power and admiration.

Our Queen @sweetestpopcorn is back on Tumblr! 🥰

Fun Fact! A little while ago (maybe 2 years now?!? 😱 I’m not proud of that) I attempted to go through the entire posted TBATG saga in order to create a thorough Appendix in the style of those seen in the main ASOIAF books. Queen Popcorn was directly consulting.

I even completed the Appendix for Part 1 (or at least it was in a post-able form).

However, I just got overwhelmed attempting to go through everything and catch all the character names and relations, and I couldn’t will myself to finish the Appendix for Part 2, let alone Parts 3 and 4.

If I had enough encouragement I would consider getting back to it, because I do really love the world building and family tree creation process. However, I would probably need help or I would get overwhelmed again.

Also, if people would be interested in the Part 1 Appendix being posted on AO3, let me know.

This is your semi frequent reminder that there is no official AO3 app

All those are unofficial and available on the Google play store as of August 13th 2025. They mirror AO3's content and insert ads, for which the developer gets paid by page impression (that's every time the ad appears in the fic you're reading) not just clicks.

No money goes to AO3, nor to the fic writer. It goes to the person who did the bare minimum.

Many of these apps have poorly worded or non existent privacy policies, so they may also be mining as much data as possible and selling that on to unknown third parties.

Please, just use the official AO3 site and the browser.

As a guy who does Cyber IT as a living PLEASE USE THE MAIN SITE ON THE BROWSER! Do not use unofficial apps. You are opening yourselves up to a multitude of cyber threats, especially when there is no privacy policy or agreements.

[punk-jaskier]

The site is mobile optimized, and you can download the fics as PDFs or epubs if you need to read offline like on a plane, there is no reason to use a third party app.

annoying when shows set in the medieval period have the women with thier hair just long and unstyled and out . girl go put on your wimple girl 🤦‍♀️

[elvensilk]

Remember! When companies lay off all their staff because AI is cheaper, this sort of shit is what you can leverage for a better contract when they are inevitably forced to hire everyone back :)

I am fucking loving how shit-scared the UK right-wing is of a man with a bin on his head. Now that Count Binface might actually win the Clacton byelection they're desperately trying to smear him with such gems as:

"He's anti-Brexit!" Good.

"He's anti-Trump!" Good.

"He's anti-establishment!" At this point I think you're just trying to make me like him more.

"His manager once called Farage a horrible cunt!" Well Farage *is* a horrible cunt, what's your point?

"He's making a joke of British politics!" Well that's very appropriate given that current British politics *are* a fucking joke.

"He's a left-wing liberal elitist!" I don't know if you can be all of those things at once, but I do know that Count Binface isn't the one getting millions in donations from cryptocurrency billionaires sooooooo...

Vote change. Vote Binface.

Emilia Clarke still being irritated about the death of Daenerys Targaryen in the year 2026 is so relatable
