This past week we’ve dedicated this blog to sharing social posts, in solidarity with the cries of so many people.

Moving forward, as we slowly return to posting our usual content, we want to be very clear about where we stand in this essential struggle for social justice. And we want to be clear that this fight is not going anywhere and we won’t stop posting social content just because we return to posting more fun costuming posts.

Our society needs to have certain conversations and needs to understand that HUMAN RIGHTS ARE NOT A POLITICAL ISSUE.

Love and take care.

I'm actually so baffled at certain story changes in "House of the Dragon" that I am actually speechless.... like it makes me so mad, all the freaking time.

Why erase nettles? Why make Rhaenyra obsessed with not letting Jace join the Battle? Why repeat the whole "we can't control dragons" bit during the battle of the gullet? Did we really need this to turn the battle more epic?

You want fucking epic? the original battle includes 5 freaking dragons, the sacking of Spicetown and High Tide, the death of a prince, the disappearance of another, Aegon's III whole foundational trauma... and yet you reduce it to a battle with only 3 dragons, a rather boring ship chase and Rhaena thinking she can just join a battle on her first time flying a dragon and getting surprised it doesn't work out....

I'm actually too upset to right now... I'm going to lie down and try to behave like a normal person....

Also, I need to clarify something: my quarrel with this isn't that the final result isn't fucking epic enough.

My problem is that the reasons behind all these changes are so transparent... and so stupid. And in the end they don't even make for a more "thrilling" viewing experience... so it's a complete lose-lose
