we haven’t gotten a death that homophobic since they called loras a pillow biter and then blew him up

I'll most likely be blacklisted and called crazy for bringing up real-life politics to HOTD fandom discourse but it's such a tone-deaf thing to get a character, no matter how evil they are, be sodomized by a knife before his alleged death and laughing at it, as if we don't have real-life war criminals kidnapping colonized people and doing the exact same torture/sexual assault on them in a death camp. As if we haven't been horrified by the grainy CCTV footage of the crime happening and nothing, nobody being held accountable for such heinous, barbaric act. Now we have Hollywood including something similar to a character who is obviously supposed to be a misogynistic villain, who uses children as human shields... This is nuts, people, block me and call me crazy, idiot, dense, braindead, but I cannot digest such disgusting addition... I just can't wrap my brains around laughing at someone being tortured so cruelly... No no no.

Watched hotd S3 and saw a few comments about how Gwayne Hightower and Dunk would get on if they were in the same time period 🙂‍↕️

all I need for them to survive, I'm not asking for much

Bye bye my dysfunctional family 👋😔

[reckon-it]

Ormund is extremely touchy with Daeron, which is very very noticeable. But something I also think is interesting is the almost LACK of touch between Daeron and Gwayne.

I went and looked at all of their scenes and I believe (correct me if I'm wrong) the ONLY TWO TIMES in the entire season that they touch is when Gwayne stops Daeron during their first hallway scene, and when he grabs Daeron's arm to pull him out of the way of Silverwing. Besides that--no matter the situation--whether reassuring or angry or tender or arguing, they do not ever touch each other or physically reach out for each other. Even when Gwayne does grab Daeron, he let's go quite quickly.

Yet Ormund, as we know:

There's something to be said about the safety Daeron and Gwayne find in each other, and how that might manifest in a shared understanding to avoid physical affection. Outside of his frazzled return (and later panic), whenever Gwayne tries to get through to Daeron, he only leans in and never tries to touch him, even if that might be more natural.

And then, of course, we have Daeron's "Stay back".

And finally, Gwayne's refusal to leave.

my adhd meds don't help when i focus on a 30k fanfic instead of work

Recently I've seen three separate fics with the tag "dead dove, do not eat" but no actual specific warning tags and.... y'all, I think you're using that tag wrong. The way you're using it would be like if there was a bag in the fridge labeled "I warned you" with no further information and then when Michael opened it and got grossed out Gob jumped out from behind a corner and yelled "dead dove, do not eat!" as if that was supposed to have been clear all along.

I think about one of my high school teachers asked if he watched euphoria saying smth along the lines of "i have to deal with real high school everyday and that's being paid" yeah

[subtlecards]

thinking about my favorite bsky post of all time

[subtlecards]

if you had told me in s1 that Daemon Targaryen would become one of my favorite characters in s3 I would have never believed you.

a grown ass man starting to realize of "oh... maybe war and violence and murder and neglecting my children can be bad..." is INSANE.

idc if people think it's out of character or too quick, I'm so down for this character arc and (imo) it's clearly not at a conclusion yet. the last episode showed him recognize for the first time the destruction and pain that comes with war and violence. like i dont think we're going to go into season 4 (or ever) with Daemon a dad of the year pacifist.

My favorite thing about Rhaenyra the Cruel is she’s about as cruel as most “good” kings are in times of war. My other favorite thing about Rhaenyra the Cruel is she looks so fucking hot in that chainmail like whatever you say my queen I’ll just be at your feet for the rest of my days. And my other favorite thing about Rhaenyra the Cruel is she said fuck the seven and their bitch ass gods and you know what? Fuck the seven and their bitch ass gods indeed.

[thechainsmeaniloveyou]

So when did y'all all of a sudden give a fuck about the seven and the faith and the septons? Because as far as I'm concerned you only do that when it goes against Rhaenyr- oh wait, yep that's it.

[thechainsmeaniloveyou]

God Viserys III was so tragic I feel like we don't talk about him enough. He was also really hot so there's that.

[subtlecards]

googled to double check which Viserys (too many repeat names lol) and wanted to share that according to google he is both a gigachad and a horse

[wulfhalls]

lets look identical with papa

FR! I think a lot of people are confused why ppl are unsettled by Ormund's ending because gruesome deaths are so typical for the show.

Ormund's character is largely defined (other than by being evil) by being [extravagant, poncy, effeminate, theatrical, etc,] traits which are associated with queerness and weakness within the show/universe, even if Ormund isn't queer.

The audience has been waiting for his death bc he's horrible and does deserve an awful ending, but when we get it the writers chose "that's a proper fucking."...

We are supposed to cheer for and laugh at an effeminate character being killed in a way alluding to homophobic rape, literally by a form of anal penetration.

It doesn't come off great
