Dex was never slut shamed. She was friend shamed. When Grey criticizes her sex life, it’s not she’s having sex, but who she has sex with and why. In this case, he assumed he had sex with his girlfriend to implode his relationship with Liz and her own with Miles because she can only function in chaos. He’s criticizing her self destructive tendencies and toxic behavior. The issue of cheating literally never came up for Grey. He was upset about Dex for “intentionally” ruining a good thing with his girlfriend (not cheating on Dex’s end) and trying to ruin her own relationship. He was then upset with Liz for lying to him and setting up Dex. Neither of these issues have anything to do with cheating, but very valid (at the time for dex) grievances with their actions. This isn’t exactly correct. Ansel was the one who led Grey to believe that they slept together and Liz stoked that fire. We know that Dex is into a lot of casual hook ups AND that she drinks a lot. Dex not remembering in this case doesn’t mean, “well, she should automatically have the benefit of the doubt” because, most likely, there is a lot of stuff dex doesn’t remember due to drinking (that she did). Dex was also very hostile to Liz leading up to the event as well. Grey has known her long enough where dex being falsely accused of something does sound true. Dex didn’t say, “that doesn’t sound like something I’d do” or “you know me, I wouldn’t do something like that.” she says she didn’t think she did it and went to check to tapes to see what happened because she honestly was unsure as well. so, if dex is unsure, how is it wrong for Grey to believe she did it? even then, he didn’t assume that because she slept around she had no emotional connections, he assumed that she slept with Liz to avoid stability and growing an even deeper emotional connection because it terrified her. Regardless, it’s not like Dex said anything to discount what Liz said. Liz was the only one who vaguely remembered anything, Dex didn’t know, and neither grey or dex thought what happened sounded out of character.

This was my favorite moment of the ep, BUT he pulled the defense out of his ass. Lol. Great thinking on your feet, Rome. It’s truly amazing that he came up with a compelling and solid reason that some took the heat off of Gerri. His reason for defending her is entirely centered around self interest, but personal and professional.

Honestly, I don’t think PT’s reads were unnecessarily harsh, I think he was just sick of Candy walking in inappropriate categories, and then getting offended when called out. We’ve seen candy be an habitual offender of the category. And when candy has the requirements for said category, PT compliments her. Candy wasn’t some newbie to the scene, she’d been participating at balls for years, and then became a mother. She should’ve known better and appropriately prepared for the right categories. imo, PT’s reads was about her habitually crossing the line and lacking any accountability as to why she was being called out and, at times, reacting violently.

There is a show where a heterosexual couple gets involved with a woman, o guess they were poly for a bit. She screwed them over, but later on, on rare occasions, the wife would have sex with the woman despite detesting her. Eventually, the woman realized that she wasn’t necessarily attracted to this other woman in some uncontrollable way, but rather, she liked being dominated, which the woman did. For Eve, I’m not sure she’s truly attracted to Villanelle, but rather, what she is and represents. Eve has psychopathic leanings, perhaps, without being one. She is probably projecting her desires onto Villanelle, but she doesn’t have the bloodlust or real need to kill. Because she isn’t being pulled between Nico and Villanelle, but her humanity and her psychopathic leanings. She needs serious psychiatric help. She wants Villanelles attention because she’s lives vicariously through her and she liked having a psychopath’s attention. Yet, in the many occasions we’ve seen where Eve has to choose between Villanelle and her humanity, she chooses her humanity. When she lies on the bed with Villanelle in season 1, Eve stabs her. She rejects Villanelle’s offer because of who she is and what’s she’s done. Despite giving into her desire to stab Villanelle, it also frightened and shocks her. When Villanelle is hiding from the police and Eve figures out where she is, Eve gives her up without hesitation. Eve struggles with killing Raymond and is shocked not exhilarated by it. Eve struggled with the idea of Villanelle being killed, but she has never struggled with turning her in or using violence against Villanelle herself when she felt warranted. Which is why when she realized she was manipulated/forced into killing Raymond, she can walk away from Villanelle. She isn’t attracted for Villanelle as a person, but what she does and how she does it. And that’s very hard to separate because then we have the ghost. But, I believe what drew Eve to Villanelle was also her theatrical nature. She wants the attention even as she evades capture. We see that we Nico takes “advice” from Villanelle and uses it, Eve is more engaged with her husband. She likes his aggression and assertiveness. She wants more out of their sex life. She loves Nico as a person, but he’s not dangerous, so she’s checking out, but doesn’t want to leave; she ls infatuated with Villanelle being a psychopath, but she doesn’t actually love Villanelle and would never be with her due to how unstable she is. Then there is also the fact that Carolyn/the MI6 have been exploiting Eve’s psychopathic leanings and manipulating her to their desired path. Eve had an attraction to Hugo, but she wasn’t attracted to Hugo. Think about it: there’s a since of danger being involved with him. But, her act of sleeping with him had nothing to do with him and the day after she’s totally indifferent. She gets off on her connection to a killer and the situations it puts her in. She sends mixed messages because she doesn’t understand her feelings for Villanelle or why she has them or the message she is sending.

Tbh, I don’t think most fans though Jane and Michael we’re getting back together and that he was brought to lose as an obstacle. Of course people will root for their ship, but going by tumblr, Twitter, Reddit, etc doesn’t mean that most people actually thought they were legitimately getting back together.

I don’t need Dany to be good, I need Sansa to be held to the same impossible standards that Dany is. Everything Dany says is construed as a threat, despite her not harming anyone she works with on a whim and repeatedly giving people chances. Sansa deliberately sows seeds of chaos and a thousand excuses are made for her. She knows EXACTLY what happens when information travels and does it anyway for her own benefit. We May say it’s to protect the north, but why is the north more important than any other kingdom? Sansa’s laser focus on just one kingdom to the detriment of others makes her selfish and morally grey at best. There is no way to argue that she didn’t know this wouldn’t to resort to violence because it always does. She’s sewn that first hand. What are you arguing by bringing up race? The racism of the writer’s???

I haven’t read all of the pages but I’ll say this: Varys’ death was deserved. He committed treason by trying to get Jon to replace Dany on the throne. He blabbed the secret to other people and he was trying to poison her. He deserved to die. Dany warned him before that if he betrayed her trust again, she’d burn her. And that is consistent for rulers in that time: killing traitors. Although it was Jon’s secret to tel; he betrayed Dany as well. He knew that Sansa didn’t like Dany and Dany flat out said do not two Sansa and what did he do? Tell Sansa. Sansa spread that secret so it could go as wide and far as possible, this undermining his queen. Dany not reacting to Viserys getting his golden crown doesn’t prove she had hints of insanity. Viserys abused Dany her entire life, told her that he’d let a thousand men and horse rape her for the throne, and threatened to cut her unborn child out of her stomach. Him being her brother is irrelevant if he’s caused nothing, but pain and turmoil. Dropping hints that she COULD BE mad and foreshadowing the possibility isn’t the same as building a character arc that proves it. We’ve seen more instances of Dany being far and just and going out of her way not to cause any innocents harm. They did not earn Dany’s heel turn because we, the viewers, hadn’t reached a point where we thought “Dany might go mad.” A handful of people did, but most people did not and it isn’t due to lack of paying attention. Even those who suspected that this was a possibility have said this wasn’t earned. Dany’s heel turn is the most egregious and the biggest example of bad writing, but Varys is as well. He spent how many decades spying only to commit treason in broad daylight??? Arys shouldn’t had been in KL to begin with. I can’t imagine Cersei running away with her tail between her legs or globe get out like that. And Jaime doesn’t make any sense either even if you don’t include how he died. Why did Euron want to be known as the one who killed Jaime? Who would verify this??? Also, the other reason this makes no sense is that, even if I am to believe that Dany went full blown mad and indiscriminately BBQ’d KL, why didn’t she care at all about going after Cersei? The woman who sent Euron to take down her second child/dragon. The woman who ordered Missandei to die in front of her? Dany didn’t say she was going to take KL out root and stem, she said Cersei. Even with Dany saying she’d rain down “fire and blood” on cities, it’s almost always been solely for her enemies. That’s it. Dany has shown restraint when innocents could be hurt. Even then, it’s both literal and hyperbolic. Dany wants to rain down fire and blood on her enemies not people who have nothing to do with her issue. Regardless, Jon, sansa, Tyrion, and Varys ALSO hold responsibility for what happened. Especially those who thought she was going crazy, but then conspired behind her back and even tried to have her killed. Dany wasn’t paranoid, she was right. Everything she said would happen, happened and not bedside or anything she did.

Dany and Jon were waiting for the NK, but Dany broke the plan to help out the soldiers.

Arya was just a flat out a bad ass. I was ready for her to fight and when she did it was everything. That double headed spear gave me life. Then she was shook for a moment, which mad sense, but she was bad ass during her stealth scene. When she spoke to Mel and disappeared, I kept asking where she was. But, when appeared out of the air and did the knife trick, I was cheering. I thought the NK almost had her and felt bad about doubting her. When she delivered that blow, I was like, “it just makes sense.”

I don’t think Michael is the best part, but I believe his characterization highlights a larger problem with the writing for some. Michael adds a balance to the narrative that gets bogged down by other thing and I believe that would be true regardless of his race. Jennie can end it her way all she wants, but being too married to an idea is actually what has hurt the series several times.

Lmfao. I think it was just the dragon being weird, but I find it hilarious how creepy people find bran (within reason tho).

There are many Arya and Gendry fans who ship them based off of the books.

I never read the books either. 😏

I think Wildling culture is vastly different. I think a Wildling woman would be impressed with him because of that story. I think he's also trying so hard to impress Brienne that he doesn't realize non Wildling women don't find that impressive.

How?
