saw grass today. which was weird because I was out in the woods and the snow was up to my elbows. but I walked on some trails that had been shoveled and grass was poking through. it was green. why was it green. we've had sub-zero temperatures for 4 months. how is grass? green?

I love that one of the roles fire plays in this series is to represent how all consuming desire can be, and how it’s framed as something that can be world ending when uncontrolled.
So naming unnatural, untamable green fire ‘wildfire’ is therefore a stroke of genius. It’s the representation of how we humans manufacture our own doom in the pursuit power, of how uncontrolled desire will eventually blow up in our faces.
And the fact that barrels and barrels of it sit fermenting under Kings Landing, Westeros’s breeding ground of maniac desire, and the capital the ambitious and corrupt flock to for what it promises? It’s perfection!

*Me, a Canadian who just had to sit through one of the most depressingly warm and rainy Christmases ever*
Weather Report: We've got at least two very large and powerful winter storms coming up in the next few days.
Me: :)
Weather Report: The first one will bring a few inches of snow to your area.
Me: :D
Weather Report: The second one will bring above-freezing temperatures and rain to your area.
Me:

I'm supposed to be a Winter Enjoyer but when winter doesn't Winter I just want to get straight to spring asap bc if you're not going to get the good stuff from late autumn/winter (frost, beautiful clear skies on frosty mornings, cloudy breath, Snow, Bundling Up, things going crunch on the ground when you walk on them bc of the frost, Coming Inside From The Cold, ice patterns on car windows, fucking SNOW) then it's just months of it being dark and depressing and Always 11 Degrees And Raining and also Depressing Because Of The Climate Change and spring is much nicer than That.
