Everyone wants toxic yuri and complex female characters until the yuri is toxic and the female characters are complex :(

House of the dragon is so funny because normally if there's a big gay ship full of subtext in a show the fans will go crazy making everything about the ship and twisting the narrative to fit it while the showrunners don't actually care and try to steer the characters away from it to avoid queerbaiting accusations. Meanwhile in hotd everyone from the writers to the actors to the directors is fully yuri pilled like Rhaenyra and Alicents dynamic is the heart of the show and the narrative doesn't work without acknowledging it. And a large portion of the fans are still stubbornly trying to ignore it two seasons in and twist the characters actions in another direction even if it makes no sense. It's so funny the showrunners went sorry no you're not getting a two dimensional Cersei rip off you're getting childhood friends to enemies who long to be lovers. And the concept just would not compute in the fans brains unless they cared about female characters and the dynamic between them, which we already know the majority of most fans do not.

i wish during got days gurm made an entire 20 page long blog post about osmund kettleblack being removed which he would then delete within 30 minutes of posting

If I can't see a baby torn into shreds on my TV, then why am I even here 😢

grrm deleting the blog post means people r going to wildly exaggerate how critical it was and what it was critical about forever. so its important we remember now that it was almost entirely about him being super annoyed they cut historical targaryen dead baby number one million because of the ripple effects this will have on later seasons (kingsguard rickard thorne will not be able to distinguish himself as a brave warrior immediately before dying by trying to protect maelor)

“I have no idea what Ryan has planned — if indeed he has planned anything”

“And there are larger and more toxic butterflies to come, if HOUSE OF THE DRAGON goes ahead with some of the changes being contemplated for seasons 3 and 4…”

“In Ryan’s outline for season 3, Helaena still kills herself… for no particular reason.”

"he's only complaining about maelor and the ripple effects " come on now, can we stop being disingenuous? If those aren't damning words I don't know what would be. Really dont understand this toxic attitude towards the guy who is the creator of this world who is clearly already very down about hotd, and how he's getting along with twow.

is it toxic to say there’s better ways to resolve coworker/co-collaborator beef on a creative project that hundreds of people have dedicated years of their lives to that don’t involve getting pulled offstage to meet the HBO litigation team yes or no

average hotd viewer voice: ryan condal was born under a blood moon in a dark alleyway on friday the thirteenth he was sired by mephistopheles himself and he lives next to a fetid pond in the deep swamp so he can conduct his blood rituals in solitude. ryan condal eats babies and dissects live spiders for fun. ryan condal fucked my wife.

where did the idea that alicent is only a victim in the show but an evil mastermind in the book come from because like. well what might having to play stepmommy to a nine year old starting from age eighteen and then having to compete with said child for the personal and political affection of your husband the king for decades do to your mind

I hate that stat abt the male loneliness epidemic going around talking about some “men can go months without being hugged 🥺” because if you say well men could hug each other they get mad and say men don’t do that and they’re not willing to try but then if you say well okay make some female friends and hug them platonically they get mad because they feel like it should lead to intimate contact. Okay so die then.
