getting so worked up over the word bitch is just peak white feminism. you attack any female celebrity every chance you get, you perpetuate misogyny by actively being homophobic, and have never advocated for women who don’t look like you😭
i know most of us are buzzing about the starks, tullys, blackwoods in hotd season 2, but i think we should be prepared for the most shocking players of all: good house frey
idc if y’all are the biggest harwin stans in the world (i like him well enough myself) but let’s not lie to ourselves: fabien is the hottest man in hotd
i am BEGGING hbo to release the footage of young laena claiming vhagar somehow. i need that moment before my eyes. i waited years for that and will not be deprived of it.

@VenusMagik
she’s literally going through a painful, traumatic birth in that scene and all these mfs are thinking about is their weird breeding kink?? it’s so disturbing
it’s literally canon that aegon preferred rhaenys over visenya and that aegon and visenya’s personal relationship was notoriously stormy. the only thing uniting them was a shared belief in targaryen supremacy and empire-building
If HBO does this and I so much as get a whiff of animosity in this marriage throuple, if I so much as see Team Rhaenys vs Team Visenya, throw the whole project in the trash. Believe it or not, this is one polygamous marriage built on love & equality.

Aemond shouldn’t have killed Luke it’s aemonds fault. Aemond held a grudge for over 6 yrs against a 14 yr old boy when he was 19 for cutting his eye when he was about to kill the 14 yr olds brother. and got pissed over a pig. If he didn’t kill luke bandc would’ve never happened.
he murdered his first wife, isolated his second wife from her family and home against her wishes, groomed his third wife since childhood and physically abuses her, and neglects one of his daughters
but, y’know, positive masculinity
In its first season,
#HouseOfTheDragon

and yeah just because some people asked: no, this is not an endorsement of a*sel e*gort. fuck that rapist asshole, i hope he chokes. i genuinely do not fucking get why spielberg cast him in the movie. he was awful and miscast even without the allegations
my entire feed is filled with both blacks and greens supporters yelling about how the show hates their faction and is actually propaganda for the other side
#HouseOfTheDragonHBO
showrunner Ryan Condal laughed at the notion that fans are more qualified than him to make decisions about important character: “Yeah, please explain to me and George who Daemon is as a character, everybody."
man got mocked as “fool frey” for the rest of his life just because he had the balls to directly ask for rhaenyra’s hand as opposed to scheming for it like other lords, yet when rhaenyra called on her supporters, he was there, a true ride-or-die team black member
pour one out for floris baratheon. if i got to be THE aemond targaryen’s fiancée and he leaves me for a witchy milf, and then dies from an anime duel before explaining, i would literally kill myself (not exaggerating)
making threads on why the only canonically black character in the dance should not exist in the show adaptation simply because she “gets in the way” of your abusive incestuous ship is extremely racist and deranged
pissed me the fuck off because what part of that marriage was “loving” in the slightest bit??? she was forcibly sold to him and raped to sire children who ended up unloved
the commentary frustrated me more than anything, honestly. everyone characterizing alicent’s marriage with viserys as “loving but not sexually satisfying” really takes away the horror of what was done to alicent as a young girl.
he freaking died for the black cause, for a queen who once rejected him so soundly that he was mocked for it for his entire life. that’s dedication, that’s loyalty.
calling the existence of one (1) extremely powerful, privileged woman in a position of power ‘feminist’ in any way is the shallowest justification i’ve seen yet
and i’ll break this to you: no one cares. rhaenyra’s simple existence is feminist, her becoming queen would’ve set precedent for all first born daughters in all westeros meanwhile usurping her throne did the opposite. cry about it
meanwhile affc jaime is literally lecturing to loras tyrell about how criston represented the best and worst of the kingsguard…just like him. about time we got a fancam like this, actually. very book accurate parallels
a timely reminder that the conquerors’ mother was valaena velaryon, which in show canon would make visenya, aegon, and rhaenys biracial
keep that in mind for some of the fancasting. love the suggestions for amber heard as visenya though
calling the world of women talking a “feminist utopia” when it’s based on a true story of how women and girls were drugged with tranquilizers and raped for years is insane
Watching WOMEN TALKING, the film allegory of the feminist movement, I was struck at how in the film, as in real life, no women of color were included. The film stated it was a true story in “the female imagination”. Even in the feminist utopia, women of color aren’t considered.
The real losers of all Game of Thrones universe & GRRM 's writing is Lannisters and Hightowers.
No legends from that 2 houses.
Those 2 houses have barely any good contribution to realm. Most of the fans hate them. As Cregan Stark said You are no good to realm.
Rhaegar hate is so weird to me. “He cheated and abandoned Elia & their kids.” No one knows what truly happened because Rhaegar & Elia don’t have POVs. Allocate your hate to Tywin Lannister who ordered their brains smashed into soup.
truly i have never held more hatred for a theory than i do for aemond being helaena’s kids’ father. i hate everything about it, even if i put aside the incest.
“make her someone that is worthy of two men fighting over” just say you hate women??
also, what rumours? it’s literally just shippers on twt, it’s not real
i’m confused as to how apparently helaena the dragon dreamer doesn’t have enough depth or personality? she is an interesting character without the need of a love triangle imo.
