Con of Thrones has been cancelled largely because of Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis.

Con of Thrones had been scheduled for late August in Orlando. But DeSantis's homophobic, racist, anti-immigrant, anti-choice, and book-banning policies have created an uninviting atmosphere in the state.

Con of Thrones is the world’s premiere unofficial convention dedicated to all things Game of Thrones, House of the Dragon and A Song of Ice and Fire. I’ve been to the convention a few times and it was always a ton of fun. This year’s event was going to be held at the Hyatt Regency Orlando in Orlando, Florida from August 25-27, but no more.

The con's official site has this message...

So far as the “anti-humanitarian legislation and atmosphere” is concerned, this likely refers to the record number of racist and anti-LGBTQIA+ bills debated among legislators under Florida governor Ron DeSantis, including bans on gender-affirming healthcare, criminal punishments for trans people who use bathrooms matching their gender, restrictions of what subjects college students can study, and more. As for “additional feedback from partners, attendees, and guests,” we can only guess at the details.

While it was an appropriate decision, DeSantis had been behaving like this for a long time. He didn't just start this repression last week. DeSantis signed his first "Don't Say Gay" bill into law 15 months ago. He was so high profile with his repression that nationally syndicated cartoons like this one from January required little explanation at the time.

So the organizers of Con of Thrones could have taken action much earlier by moving the event to a state with a more friendly administration. There was plenty of time to save it.

Hoping that Ron DeSantis would become less bigoted over the past year is like expecting Ramsay Bolton to mellow out after defeating Stannis. Despots only continue to get worse until they're forced to stop.

Being from Lonely Light and also having constant dragon dreams means that Gwyn has a lot of interesting things to say. Oswick and Toby are not always keen to hear about them. You start saying things like "My Nan turned into a whale when she died" and "I saw a stranger trying to communicate with me via a glass candle" and people start getting weird about it. Let the Targaryen speak, I say!

Characters are: 🐗Oswick "Redtusk" Crakehall by @oneirotect, our ASOIAF GM ☀️Tobiah "Toby" Martell by Nico 🦑Gwyndon "Gwyn" Pyke by me

And.. what is with these Roaches in a box? Some folks have said... 3 pictures = S3, some have said they see S3 in the roaches themselves. What do you think?

Alrighty lovelies, I wanted to get so much more done today but I ran out of picture room and I'm catching up on so many things so everything is behind. I want you to know that you are doing a great job out there. Not just with clowning/honking, but with life in general. Things keep happening, and you keep on kicking, and that means so much to me, so much to your crew! We care so deeply about you and so when you succeed, or you struggle, we want to be there with you every time. <3

This world is hard, but you keep being kind regardless, and we're so proud of you for that. Sending so much love crew <3
