#oh d&d no

Does the no "Game of Thrones" policy on your ask page also related to "House of the Dragon" or a question (mine was going to be about Arya's stab from the dark and the Aegon's prophetic "A Song of Ice and Fire" dream) where it's about "House of the Dragon" and also touches on "Games of Thrones"?

Honestly, my reaction to being reminded of GOT-only storylines, even today, is "those fucking hacks never knew what the fuck they were doing, who gives a flying fuck about their fucking stupid plot twists they did only because "[Jon] just didn’t seem right to us for this moment", matching their usual fucking stupid "Creatively it made sense to us, because we wanted it to happen", so yeah, don't ask me about Game of Thrones.

#it also plays into the theme of jaime being held responsible for bigger things than what he actually does #like killing aerys (he did do that) in order to seize the throne (never even crossed his mind in the final version of asoiaf) #but the show was never interested in jaime’s character and its themes the way george is #(this is true for most characters) (via @bidonica)

#i think it adds to the ruthlessness of lsh too #which again. they cut her. (via @atopvisenyashill)

#not doing stoneheart was such a dumb decision #but again. what wasn't lmao (via @mandalorianmuffin)

#amazing how d&d managed to defang the RED WEDDING #of course that line was specifically about tormenting catelyn and they never gave a fuck about her #but it’s truly wild how d&d were so caught up in making the show as violent as possible #that they change the truly devastating and horrifying moments (via @orlamcsupercool)

biggest small change they made in the show was changing ‘jaime lannister sends his regards’ to ‘the lannisters send their regards’ which simultaneously changes nothing (because they don’t do lady stoneheart) and the entire meaning of the line. the lannisters were involved in the red wedding the line is just true now and it’s still cruel but the specific pointed cruelty of the original line was that catelyn died thinking that it was her fault, that she’d been tricked into an oath with the most notorious oathbreaker in the world in hope of saving her daughters and it killed her son. bolton knows she released jaime against robb’s wishes he knows the implication that jaime then arranged for her and robb’s deaths is the single most horrific idea he could give her in her dying moments

I have some questions about karaoke night, Alex Hirsch. Very Important Questions. Which I will happily scream at a poor hapless baby triangle who can have no answers for me, and possibly also does not have object permanence yet.

Follow-up that is I guess suggestive, but let's be real here, Bill's a fucking triangle:

Dude slipped right into his birthday suit, lmao

this is so stupid :D

Anyway, I don't care what anyone says, this brilliant individual knows what's up - Bill is absolutely way more of a monsterfucker than Ford could or ever will be, full stop.

#also sometimes a work DOES reflect the author's bigoted views lol #why are we acting like that's unheard of #anyway I thought about when I argued with d&d apologists over the way they adapted loras now I’m mad again #‘it’s not like the religious zealots were portrayed as good people what’s the issue’ #the issue is that storyline wasn’t in the book they went out of their way to make the one gay character be tortured for his sexuality #'why are you upset that bad things are happening to the characters' book loras got deepfried that's not what i have a problem with

Whenever people talk about lack of media literacy they always bring up people who think a character doing bad things=the author endorsing said bad things which are very annoying but I feel like we're ignoring the opposite, equally annoying side of the discourse who think if you criticize the inclusion/depiction of dark/sensitive topics in any way it’s bc you’re a dumb baby who can’t separate fiction from reality. and it's like no I know I’m not supposed to clap and cheer at violence against women I’m criticizing how much of it there is. Idiot

#he drowned an entire family in their house because they made fun of his dad

i think tywin's 'a lion doesn't concern itself with the opinion of sheep' line from the show is really funny because basically ALL tywin does is concern himself with the opinion of people!
