Those game of thrones imagine blogs are amazing bcs someone will post, in real actual honesty, about “imagine stannis baratheons reaction to you sending him nudes at work” as if that simple sentence is not THE funniest possible thing anyone could ever think to say

every single time i get into smn i follow some accs on twt despite not using that shit for fandom to occasionally get my little fix and then like a week later i want to explode 90% of the fandom and then myself and i end up muting every word regarding the thing on there

news reports are saying that hamdan ballal (co-director of 'no other land') was attacked by settlers in the west bank and was arrested while on an ambulance receiving treatment. co-director yuval abraham says there has been no sign of him since.

This is possibly the most insane national security story in the last 50 years. Includes a massive text chain between senior members of the Trump admin gaming out foreign policy and war plans on Signal, and they accidentally added a reporter to the group chat.

changed my mind he is also fucking stupid

man i hate it when some people in fandom start going off about how much of a genius tywin is and how dumb ned is. cruelty is not intelligent and compassion is not dumb or a weakness. tywin isnt a complete fool but at the end of the day all he has is fear and when he’s met with a person who has nothing left to lose, that fear no longer protects him.

yeah as much as i joke about tywin he is not dumb and incompetent necessarily, but his outlook on life is ultimately treated by the text as his fatal flaw, and it does lead to his downfall as well as the downfall of his regime. what especially frustrates me though is when people are like “his flaw was just that he ruined his family internally, and now that he died bc he miscalculated they are not smart enough to go on and will drive him to ruin.” which is just. no. tywin himself also drove his regime to where it is right now. you see it in affc and adwd. it is so clear in the jaime riverlands chapters. you see how despised they are. you see how there is no room for negotiation anymore. nobody trusts them, nobody likes them, no one is loyal to them. their regime is built on nothing but fear and blood and that foundation can only get you so far. it is like trying to build on quicksand. you see the build up for the fall in asos. you see the food crisis. burned and destroyed fields and irreversible damage caused by the men that tywin unleashed on the smallfolk. he was feeding the crows instead of feeding the realm. he is obsessed with asserting his power and dominance and it blinds him. he also places himself above the horrid cruelty he uses, distinguishes himself from the “savages” he utilizes, but it always comes back to him, because it is a part of him. he orchestrated doom himself. lannister hegemony is his doomed project. his children will doom him too, i think all three will play a big role in contradicting and/or destroying his legacy, but it is his obsession and malignant cruelty that put his legacy in the position that it is in, and it is not just about overlooking and misunderstanding his family. and he is not meant to be this “infallible logical and rational utilitarian” character with a single blindspot that is abusing his kids. he is an ‘emotional’ and ‘fragile’ hypocrite in many ways. bringing in that kind of comparison to put down ned shows a lack of understanding of many themes in the text. one major difference is that ned’s ‘emotion’ was rooted in empathy. and that quality of his will not doom his legacy, it will likely save it.

no pls this is just what i was discussing w someone in dms like we cant truly go w the angle of “my heart belongs to dead cousin pussy” here as funny as i would find that angle too (like tywin “u cannot eat love” lannister being a slave to love for his dead wife instead of being pragmatic) considering that shit. is he stupid?

it is truly so damn funny that tywin not only decided to marry joanna but then never remarried after her death. no diplomatically advantageous political marriage no more heirs fuck it. funniest bitch on the planet

jaime thinking he should just marry his lannister childhood sweetheart and fuck them politics was actually him being his father's son😁

i cant recall truly despising a character tbh. like in a jokey way sure but its never genuine enough for me i think. like the worst i feel is annoyance or complete indifference. at most fans can be insufferable but it is so easy to separate that idk i think im a poser hater fr. ive mentioned this b4 but i think the last time it felt real was when i was like idk 13 and the return to shiganshina chapters were dropping and on top of his crimes reiner kept not dying in more and more comical ways after the marco reveal while all of my faves were in immediate mortal danger bc of him like that was the one time i truly felt deep hatred in my heart for a fictional mf and it was the product of the intensity fs. and that is so funny in retrospect i wish i had this with jaime

[ilynpilled]

it is so funny to encounter ppl who seem to essentially despise every character but their favorite in the series they r a fan of and it is unbelievable how common this is lmao like man i dont think this shit is giving u a good time actually
