Hey sorry I told your boyfriend about the transience of his incredible beauty and opened his eyes to his true nature. Yeah he won't sit for you anymore and he's being weird about the portrait you painted of him even though it's your greatest work. Yeah no he comes with me to the club now and is always in search of new sensations. Oh and he found a girlfriend at the theatre don't even worry about it.

oh yeah, aside from being a dick, I occasionally do cool stuff that I don’t think of taking pictures of and posting here.

Like this cool Porterhouse steak I cooked for dinner tonight. It reminds me that I should leave my meats on low heat more often, because it looks delicious.

My mom prepped the veggies and mashed potatoes, and I have no shame in saying that ‘cause mashed taters taste fucking good when soaked in steak juice.

Now that's some banger looking meat right there.

(Idk why, but I recommend mashing broccoli in with potatoes. It's absolutely delicious, my dad used to make it all the time)

Is this a fucking joke?!

ALICENT has never sacrificed anything?!

Alicent has sacrificed EVERYTHING

She sacrificed her choices and happiness for Otto by marrying the King. She sacrificed her friendship with Rhaenyra. She sacrificed her bodily autonomy to give the king a male heir. She sacrificed her own safety for the safety of her children. She was prepared to die by dragonfire for Aegon, sacrificing her own life for his

But no. She has never sacrificed anything. Everything has been handed to her on a silver platter according to these writers

Meanwhile wtf has Rhaenyra sacrificed? A random knight so she could marry Daemon? A ton of innocent people for more dragons? Those aren’t personal sacrifices the way Alicent’s are. She’s sacrificing other people for herself

Not the same at all

And everything she has, she has been handed on a silver platter. Daddy named her heir, despite her treason in passing off bastards as heirs to Driftmark. She fucked off to Dragonstone and still was heir. She got the Riverlands because of Daemon, not anything she did. She got the dragons through evil means. Alicent offers her everything she wants

It it’s Alicent who has never sacrificed anything?

And now she’s being forced by the writers to sacrifice her son; the person she did all this to protect. Now she’s choosing Rhaenyra because this is redemption to the writers instead of the character assassination that it is

At least Olivia tries to save what she can by making Alicent have a panic attack

psa

[alightcaseofohno]

we as a fandom need to acknowledge that the names of the dragons ridden by alicent’s children are absolute bars. sunfyre the golden. vhagar, queen of all dragons. dreamfyre. tessarion the blue queen. like helloooo, that’s insane. genuinely insane.

Frankenstein, I can’t build you a wife. No. It’s not because I’d be creating an abomination against god. I’ve already done that. It’s a women’s rights issue Frankenstein. Maybe even grooming if you want to get technical

[alightcaseofohno]

so does anyone remember that “book of politically correct fairy tales” that i got the other day

well

I’M READING IT AGAIN AND I STARTED LAUGHING

[alightcaseofohno]

hot take : 18yo book alicent had no parental obligation towards rhaenyra. the fact that she didn't care about her and only loved her own children doesn't make her a villain.

[alightcaseofohno]

The Targaryens are enormous hypocrites about their precious pure Valyrian blood, and it started long before Aerys was racist towards the Dornish while being the descendant of Myriah Martell and Dyanna Dayne himself.

As far as I'm concerned, none of the ruling Targaryens is a pure-blooded Valyrian, including the Conquerors. The wives of Aerys (great-grandfather of Visenya, Aegon, and Rhaenys), as well as his son Daemion, are unspecified. While there's a chance that they were descended from Aenar's siblings or belonged to some families of Valyrian heritage that resided in the Free Cities, there's another huge possibility of them having nothing to do with Old Valyria at all.

And then, we have the Velaryons, who are never mentioned to practice marriage between siblings. In fact, they seem to intermarry with the Westerosi very well, as Alyssa Velaryon is the daughter of Alarra Massey, and House Massey is of First Men origin. As we know, the marriages between the Targaryens and the Velaryons happen very often.

Conclusion: Rhaenyra and Daemon, as well as their stans, can get off their high horse. Also, the whole argument about pure blood is disgusting and really shows how people buy into the Targaryen supremacism.
