[luvv4j4ybe11]

Having doubts about making in event in the first place bc I feel like everyone is all burned out from all the other events before mine…I’m sorry yall:/.

I might js call the whole event off bc I feel bad since bc no one is really writing for it and I know it’s because of 1. life and 2.some people are burnt out(like I said before)

apologies if this comes off wrong, but I really did hate the way they made rhaenyra's grief(of losing her mother) about alicent in a way by having her be forced to meet the king, like couldn't they have waited atleast a day or smthg. They really didn't explore her trauma and the neglect, that she obviously faced by viserys that a large part of the fandom need to be explained to that viserys was a shitty father to her as well

also the narrative is always making viserys seem he didn't do none of that. Like this man cut open his first wife and abused the second till he was unable to. If they wanted him to be one of the good guys, they needn't have made him do that?

Sorry for the rant lol

ya so i think there’s three types of issues with hotd - there’s “not attached to canon” issues (shout out sara hess), there’s “not enough time” issues (hbo i will hunt your ceo for sport), and then there’s “sure do have some weird social opinions in that writers room huh” and i think that rhaenyra suffers a LOT from the “not enough time” issue but especially in season one (whereas alicent suffers from that - in part - in s2 but is more or less solid in s1).

there’s imo this continued issue with rhaenyra being so involved with plot she doesn’t get character moments to flesh her out. millie imo has the stronger writing but it’s still a BIG ass problem because it’s like - i just don’t think the audience at large realizes a) how much she’s grieving, stressed, overstimulated, and not thinking clearly during the millie years and b) the same way that alicent takes her anger at being forced to be a child bride out on rhaenyra bc she can’t take it out on otto & viserys, rhaenyra very much takes her anger at how she’s being dicked around bc of the succession out on alicent because she can’t take it out on viserys. and in the same vein as aliotto, nyra can’t take that anger out on viserys bc like - she loves him. he’s the patriarch. he chose her to carry on the family, and the throne becomes synonymous with viserys’ love so she can’t ever give it up because giving up would mean admitting that maybe viserys set her up for failure.

now EYE feel like this is really clear but it obviously ISNT as clear as it should be because even discounting the absolutely stupid & disingenuous way people will, for example, frame her “pushing out heirs” line, i think because she isn’t allowed to really SIT in her fear of dying in childbirth and her grief over aemma and the way her grief can never resolve itself because that means admitting viserys is a jag off, people just gloss over it and miss it when it is a huge driving force (arguably thee driving force) of her character and her actions.

which gets into the viserys writing. i’ve said it before i’ll say it again. i think he’s the best written character in the show, i think he’s the best adapted character from the book, but viserys is so well written and fleshed out and now he’s dead and a lot of the other characters are painfully underwritten. so was that screen time well used???? feels like maybe not!!!! it’s nice that they really got that core of viserys is that he murders his wife & regrets it forever & that’s why he is the way he is wrt the succession but well, rhaenyra is the co-lead of the dance, not viserys, and we should have seen more that rhaenyra’s trauma over her mother is also a driving force of HER actions as a young girl/young woman over her father who they knew was going to die a quarter of the way through the story.

and then you get to alicent. alicent in s1 js very well written (up until the fucking prophecy) & comes across clearly because she has the time to have the plot heavy AND character scenes. now i think, as the other co-lead, that’s important. but it’s also like. well. alicent doesn’t have very much choice when it comes to marrying viserys and viserys is very much the one with the most responsibility here. i think cutting the scene where rhaenyra calls alicent a whore was good bc even tho it’s very in character (and juicy as hell), i don’t think it gets across the core issue here - which is that, regardless of alicent’s feelings on the matter, aemma JUST DIED & nyra's dad is remarrying her best friend. that’s an insane situation to be dealing with and rhaenyra is right to be so peeved. and it’s like you say - she talks derisively about the way aemma is treated but always stops short of blaming viserys. not only is her father shacking up with her fucking best friend, but her father essentially turns alicent into rhaenyra’s worst nightmare (“made to push out heirs” for an old man who CLEARLY doesn’t love her). rhaenyra just has to live with it; she can't escape it, she can't stop it, she can't ignore it. i just don’t think they gave nyra the room to really show US how badly this is affecting her (whereas we get alicent picking at her fingers, the whole sequence where viserys calls her to his bed at night, scenes where she’s holding aegon & looking miserable, viserys just out and out negging her in public). rhaenyra just runs around too much, her character has no room to breathe, and that is to me the main issue with her writing - if what drives her character is kind of opaque because they never give her a minute to stew in it onscreen, well maybe they're not doing too good of a job getting her across now are they!

hi! I have a question girl to girl (im pretty sure you are a girl…👀). I’m in a fwb situation with this fine ahh girl. And like — its obvious im not the only one shes talking to (we don’t do the deed, we only make out 😭).

She sends me pictures sometimes (like of her boobs, ass, etc etc) and sends me messages like “I’d love to have you on my face” , “cant wait to go down on you”, “need your thighs to suffocate me”, “loved your outfit, made your boobs shine” etc etc. And usually I’d just brush it off with “calm your horses 😭” or compliment her body —never reciprocating her sexual messages.

And lately, shes been asking me to send some pictures to her. I trust Karina (that’s her name, she also REALLY resembles karina, both face and especially body), but im not one hundred percent sure i wanna send her pictures. And whenever we link up, she takes it a step further by touching me in weird places, but it never goes further than that. Also when we’re hanging with friends, she’ll make me sit on her lap and stuff her face in my tits?

Overall, she wants to do the deed with me — but im not ready. I really like karina, shes funny, sexy, caring, sweet, hot and whatnot. I really don’t wanna lose her but i just dont know what to do.

sorry for the rant 😭 no one knows we’re fwb even tho all our friends ship us. so i literally have no one to tell:( you dont have to respond if you’re not comfortable doing so ❣️

love ur writing Vick !

yes anonie.. i am a girl😭🙏

okay so with what u js told me, she seems to be pushy with you.. n i think you both need to set boundaries with each other. cuz ive had some fwb situations too and its really REALLY important to know what both of you are comfortable with. if you dont wanna send her pictures, then youre not required to. in my opinion, i think you should ask yourself if youre okay with all of this. yeah, she may be a gorgeous girl but that shouldn’t make up for the fact she doing some of this stuff.. how you guys talked about anything regarding your relationship? please dont be afraid to let her know how you feel about things man.. itll really help both of you out if you’re honest🙏

mwah mwah wish you the best of luck anon❤️❤️

okay, i’m going to rant for a sec about taylor swift

so i see anti-taylor posts on my dash every once in a while and they are just so misinformed and basically just babbling off the same tired (mostly false) information every single time it’s like word vomit.

stop defending kanye west. yes, he makes good music that i have been enjoying for the majority of my life. but what he did to taylor at the vmas was not quirky or edgy. it was rude and mean-spirited. he should have used his own platform to speak his mind. he shouldn’t have used a woman’s platform to promote his opinions. it doesn’t matter if he was right or wrong (imo i would say wrong because look at the “single ladies” video and then look at the “you belong with me video”. also in that category was “poker face”, “hot n cold”, and “so what”, arguably all better music videos than “single ladies” which was basically just beyonce and two dancers dancing. come on guys. i love beyonce, but that is one of her weaker videos. like have you guys never seen the video for “crazy in love”???? get a grip.)

also, stop bashing taylor about “bad blood”. yeah, it was petty. but guess what? drake wrote a petty song about meek mill and everyone went crazy for it. nicki, drake, and lil wayne have made petty songs about stupid drama and no one says shit about that. why is it only when taylor makes a petty song about stupid drama that you all want to demonize her and burn her at the stake? oh right, not because of feminism, but because you just don’t like taylor swift.

STOP MASKING YOUR HATRED FOR TAYLOR SWIFT AS FEMINISM.

taylor swift is 100% a white feminist. but guess what? so is everyone’s ~fave~ emma watson. they’re both type a white feminists. yet you want to demonize taylor and make emma watson belle. fuck all of you. stop pretending like emma watson isn’t a white feminist. yo, i love carly rae jepsen and think she’s pretty unproblematic, but she’s a white feminist too. that’s the issue w liking white female celebrities. chances are that they’re white feminists. (your fave white celeb is prob a white feminist js)

this was supposed to be a short rant (and omfg i could go on and on and on) but y’all need to leave taylor alone. don’t stop trying to help her become less of a white feminist, but some of the bullshit you guys use to target her are unwarranted, unfounded, and completely ludicrous and hypocritical.
