I came across a comment underneath a post related to Show!Rhaenys which stated that had she survived she wouldn't have objected to Addam and Alyn becoming Corlys' heirs. Now, while we will never find out whether she would have done so or not, I believe it won't be out of character for her. And it is not a compliment.
In the book, Corlys most probably pushed for Addam to be legitimized and named heir to Driftmark because Joffrey was betrothed to Lord Manderly's daughter as part of the marriage pact made by Jace. Now, the previous arrangement according to which Luke was to succeed him with Rhaena as his wife was advantageous because their children would have carried his name as well as his bloodline. That window was closed with Joff. So, he probably thought that he might as well have his biological son succeed him, if nothing else. He had also lost Rhaenys by then and was angry at Rhaenyra. She was not in a position to refuse his demand.
On the show, Rhaenys suggests the idea of supplanting Joffrey with Rhaena as if the succession of Driftmark is candy which they can take from one kid and hand over to the other. In other words, she was suggesting that they pressurize Rhaenyra to set her son aside knowing that she is dependent on their support. This makes her callous in a way that even Book!Corlys wasn't because neither does she have the excuse of grief nor is Joffrey betrothed to someone else in this continuity.
All Show!Rhaenys cared for were appearances. The appearance of being fair and just. The appearance of being right. She doesn't care if Rhaenyra or anyone else gets screwed in the process as long as she gets to maintain it.
She wanted Baela, and later Rhaena, to inherit Driftmark primarily out of her prejudice against Rhaenyra's sons. But if Corlys were to put forward a "true" Velaryon heir then she is exactly the kind of person who would advise Rhaena to sit back, marry Addam or Alyn and remain content as Consort because such is the order of things .
Aaaah...posts like this make it so painful for me, bc I don't want to keep saying "it's the writers, a Doylist reading of them fucking shit up is more salient for this bc the entire project is set against portraying misogyny as it is by making their women "good" and behaviorally subservient for their guiding-women-for-violent-men shit, thus most Watsonian readings don't address the integrity issue of HotD very well". But you're asking me for a more Watsonian reading.
On the show, Rhaenys suggests the idea of supplanting Joffrey with Rhaena as if the succession of Driftmark is candy which they can take from one kid and hand over to the other. In other words, she was suggesting that they pressurize Rhaenyra to set her son aside knowing that she is dependent on their support. This makes her callous in a way that even Book!Corlys wasn't because neither does she have the excuse of grief nor is Joffrey betrothed to someone else in this continuity.
It think one counterargument some people may have is either that Rhaenys doesn't owe Rhaenyra anything whether Rhaenyra did something to her or not OR that she is a lot like many imagine real medieval women would act. Second one is fair, until you see how she's still very different from her book self and much less disposed to use violence for the reason of trying to make women more pacific and imply those who don't are uniquely evil from men who do the same. First one is dumb bc it is she who decides to engage and rebuke Rhaenyra for thinking similar thoughts she may have thought before.
Neither of these things will ever endear me to show!Rhaenys in particular, because both display a condescendingly disengenuous claim of moral superiority form the show itself about what this war is about, which is that this war was not as inlfuenced or caused and directed by sexism as it was by aristocratic selfishnesss...which the War of the Five Kings and literally EVERY other war in ASoIaF is caused, so why do we care so much about the Dance and changing Rhaenyra's or Rhaenys' characters....these female characters? Why do we change Rhaena of Pentos to merge w/Nettles, make the man who supported his wife political claims and showed not hint of DOMESTIC VIOLENCE domestically abuse her (S1 epi 10)? Why make one of the rapists (Hugh the Hammer) more sympathetic by making him a down-on-his-luck family man with a sick child? Why turn a politically intelligent woman into one who take multiple baths and has sex with a Kingsguard with little development towards theat, and make this a feature of her character in the second season? Why add MORE gender violence against women in general (Aemma, Rhea Royce)?
she is exactly the kind of person who would advise Rhaena to sit back, marry Addam or Alyn and remain content as Consort because such is the order of things
Yeah...bc they wrote her that way. Just hateful, this rewrite. Can't take her (them) seriously, Rhaneys is their spokesperson, and the inspiration of Hilary Clinton really how Hess' personal feelings or views really shaped the characters instead of her knowing what F&B is and be willing to tell that. (I say Hess bc it is her who said she used Clinton as her inspo) And if she wasn't willing...never should have signed on.

How to make US votes count
Now, this is the first time I have posted. I Normaly go on this we set for fun and as a distresser. Now as I lie in bed on the night before Donald fucking trump becomes the 45th president, I have to get my thoughts out.
I am from a liberal family, so my views have bias, but trump should have never won. There was a 3 MILLION difference in vote between trump and Hilary Cliton. The only other time there has been a difference between the popular vote and the winner has been in 2000. Why should someone become president if less people wanted them to be so?
I am not going to go around blaming people for trumps ‘win’. I just think it is time to do something so this will not happen agian.
I think it is time to ratify the 12 amendment.
The 12th amendment from the little book of the constitution my grandma gave me years ago says this:
“The Electors shall meet in their respective states and vote by ballot for President and Vice-President, one of whom, at least, shall not be an inhabitant of the same state with themselves; they shall name in their ballots the person voted for as President, and in distinct ballots the person voted for as Vice-President, and they shall make distinct lists of all persons voted for as President, and of all persons voted for as Vice-President, and of the number of votes for each, which lists they shall sign and certify, and transmit sealed to the seat of the government of the United States, directed to the President of the Senate;-The President of the Senate shall, in the presence of the Senate and House of Representatives, open all the certificates and the votes shall then be counted;-The person having the greatest Number of votes for President, shall be the President, if such number be a majority of the whole number of Electors appointed; and if no person have such majority, then from the persons having the highest numbers not exceeding three on the list of those voted for as President, the House of Representatives shall choose immediately, by ballot, the President. But in choosing the President, the votes shall be taken by states, the representation from each state having one vote; a quorum for this purpose shall consist of a member or members from two-thirds of the states, and a majority of all the states shall be necessary to a choice. And if the House of Representatives shall not choose a President whenever the right of choice shall devolve upon them, before the fourth day of March next following, then the Vice-President shall act as President, as in the case of the death or other constitutional disability of the President-The person having the greatest number of votes as Vice-President, shall be the Vice-President, if such number be a majority of the whole number of Electors appointed, and if no person have a majority, then from the two highest numbers on the list, the Senate shall choose the Vice-President; a quorum for the purpose shall consist of two-thirds of the whole number of Senators, and a majority of the whole number shall be necessary to a choice. But no person constitutionally ineligible to the office of President shall be eligible to that of Vice-President of the United States.”
Pretty wordy, but that is how ‘law talk’ is. In laymen terms, this talks about the electoral college. The most recent time this amanetment has been ratify was in 1804 with Jefferson. 1804! Over 200 hundred years ago. Can you think of all the things that has changed since then? The Louisiana Purchase hasn’t even happened yet. Back then having more state local voting made a lot of sence. It would take weeks for the counting of votes, and then longer for it to get to DC. And there was way less people voting back then. Less educated, less literate, less almost every thing. Electoral college was a way to have a more equal spread of what ‘the people’ wanted. Or at lest what they needed.
However now that is no longer the case. It takes mear seconds to get in contact with someone half way across the world. 138,884,643 (60 percent) people voted in 2016. During 1824 (oldest popular vote recording I could find) a total of 350,671 votes where casted. In 1804 there was only 270 electoral Vs 538 of today. The electoral votes isn’t a good representation of votes anymore.
The news was complaining that so many people didn’t vote, and while that is true there is a good reason why. Even I can think of a few fixes that would work even without changing our messed up voting method.
One, voting day should be a national holiday. People have lifes and when most states you still have to go wait in a long ass line for hours to vote when you could be working? I don’t blame them.
Two, Online voting. I feel like at this point websites like PayPal are more Secure then ATMs. Already some states have voting by mail which gives you a month to vote insead of one day. It is not a issue of technology or even security preventing online voting. We should at lest have the option to vote online by now. I am willing to bet more people in the US that have some kind of way to get online then even know where to vote. Honestly this should have been started in 2008.
Three, Get your drivers license and get your voting card. Or even if you have a social security number - you know that thing every American citizen needs? - you should automatically be able to vote. Sure maybe you can’t physically vote until you are 18, but there is no reason why a citizen need to go out of their way to sign up to vote.
Just these three things would improve the number of voters. But yet again with electoral college in place that might not even matter.
A hour has passed since I started writing this, and I need to get ready for the morning. There is still a lot I want to say, but I’ll save it for another day. Maybe.
Feel free to respond with your thoughts. This has been something on my mind and I don’t know what else to do beside sign one of the many petitions online about this.
Kudos to anyone who reads this whole thing.
