CAST AWAY 2000

We might just make it. Did that thought ever cross your brain? Well, regardless, I would rather take my chance out there on the ocean than to stay here and die on this shithole island, spending the rest of my life talking... to a goddamn volleyball.

New ships I'm ride or die for after this season:

- Sharako Lohar x Tyland Lannister (Lohar adding a new babygirl to her collection of wives is iconic)

- Rhaenyra x Mysaria (begging them to get over all their exes and slap more men)

- Aemond x Jace (they're playing Twilight Imperium while everyone else is playing Monopoly and I respect that)

- Ulf and Silverwing (serving Donkey and Dragon from Shrek, icons)

- Baela and Rhaena x some more gd screen time pls (spitting facts every scene, we need more common sense now Rhaenys is gone, give them more linessss)

- Larys x Aegon (hyped for the disability rep bois roadtrip next season, idk, they've got potential)

- Helaena x Alys (i headcannon that they have like a force-bond and chat about the future together in their dreams, fight me)

- Criston x Gwayne (Fabian and Freddie want us to want this so bad, and I am not opposed)

Poll of the Dragon #27

[monbebe-monstax]

I LOVED how dramatic that ending was, what do yall think?

If u seen one of my post before then u know how much I hate alicent but seeing her finally stand for one of her kids (even though it was against another) made me admire her little especially when she tried to do anything to get helaena away from the war, she risked her "freedom" to try and ask rhaenyra for help

Larys and mysaria manipulation game is on point

Ulf is fucking annoying Jace and addam should've jumped his ass

Aemond mirroring daemon so much he even got his own person to put him back in his place seeing helaena telling his ass off was satisfying this episode cause I'm a aemond defender but somebody needed to bring him back to reality

Gwayne attempting to defend his sister was chefs kiss

Criston being suicidal is nothing new I'm surprised that other people are surprised

And I hate Corlys so much I'm glad alyn called him out on his bs and didn't fall for that shit.

" a son for a son" no rhaenyra that would mean a son for a son for a son did they already forget about jaehaerys like he never existed

And I still don't like daemon that bitch changed his mind at the last minute if he never saw that vision then he still would've betrayed her

HOTD 2X6 Review and Spoilers!!

Another slow episode. The episode dragged especially considering it's currently down to the last 3 episodes of the season.

Alicent got booted off the council, LMFAO. I don't take pleasure in seeing women suffer but older Alicent earned her shit, it's what she gets. Larys thinking he was gonna be named the hand of the Regent King LMFAO. Aemond said get your toad looking ass tf on and go call my grandfather. That was smart as much as I hate to admit it. Aegon definitely remembers his brother trying to kill him though. Larys is going to be protecting Aegon from now on because he knows that they can't control Aemond, I'm mad I gotta say something decent about him but he's actually thinking with his brain. The green council is still in a mess and divided and they know Aemond is going to be a tyrant king, hell Alicent knows and she's still somehow shocked by the monster she created like she didn't have a big part to do with him harboring his worst qualities and helping him mold into it. Delusional I tell you. The small folk are suffering already and got on their asses though, the only thing I didn't like is Helaena getting caught in the crossfire again. Another Daeron mention and did they just subtly hint at Criston being his father? Meaning Alicent was really sleeping with him before Vizzy T kicked the bucket? The writing for the show is all over the place, my God.

We were a diva down and I didn't like it one bit. WHERE TF WAS BAELA?! Like we saw her husband but where was she? Ugh. Rhaena and Joffrey sighting. They were so cute! Rhaena is still trying to convince herself she doesn't need a dragon to be important 💔 and Joff just wants his momma. Nettles looks like she's officially scrapped. I'm so pissed. They could've totally given Rhaena something else to do in the meantime, they didn't have to merge Nettles and her story together. Wtf Sara and Ryan?! This is why people say there is a Team green bias and they aren't beating those accusations. What does this mean for Rhaena hatching Morning? There were four eggs does that mean she still has a chance to do it? I'm so mad. Then again after what Dumbass and Dunderhead pulled in the final seasons of GOT why tf am I surprised!

We saw baby Stormcloud!!! I never realized how much I missed seeing baby dragons on screen. It's like having baby Viserion, Rhaegal and Drogon back. My heart did a little quick thump. He was so derpy too 🥺🤣 How Aegon's supposed to get away on him is beyond me, he's literally the size of a kitten. The timeline is so messed up as well.

Daemon is still in spooky land and although I'm over it, I understand it's a culmination of all his regrets and things he wishes he could've had and done differently. We saw Vizzy T and that scene where it showed Daemon wanted to be there for him, he just didn't know how.... Man I kinda teared up. At the end of the day Daemon just wanted his brother's love and approval, he went about it in the wrong way because he's chaos personified but that's what it was always about to him. Vizzy T was his parental figure, his everything really and man 💔. Miscommunication trope strikes again. Him and Alys becoming friends even though she's the one that's tormenting him wasn't on my bingo cards. Somebody come get Caraxes outta there, I know he's bored asf. Every time we catch a glimpse of him he looks more and more over the entire thing. 🤣

One of the highpoints of the episode was Seasmoke. Dragons have personality y'hear me. More of that! Seasmoke is a whole clown 🤣🤣🤣. Why would he do Ser Steffon like that? I mean sure he got a little cocky but intentionally bending his neck for him to get on and then essentially saying “BITCH YOU THOUGHT” AND THEN BURNING THEM TO A CRISP?!! He was so funny for that 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😭😭😭. He said “get y'all mid looking asses on” I already got eyes for one person and he's so real for that. You guys think he used to have dragon conversations with momma Meleys about picking their riders? We know dragons pick their riders as much as riders claim their dragons but do you think Meleys taught him if the unfortunate should ever happen make sure and pick the baddest of the bunch? We know Meleys picked Rhaenys as Rhaenys picked Meleys, that was confirmed. Meleys said Pretty Women Only and do you think she told Seasmoke to get him a pretty rider to match his aesthetic if the need ever arises? I know Laenor hatched him but Laenor was pretty asf. Seasmoke saw Addam smiling on the beach once and said “yeah I gotta have that” plus it helps that he has dreads, a pretty smile, a pretty face and looks like Corlys. He said welcome back Laenor Velaryon. Addam being Laenor's brother makes it hysterical as hell too, I'm creased LMFAO. He didn't have to chase down Addam like that but I respect it, he saw what he wanted and shooters shoot. I too would chase down Addam until he accepts my advances and affection, Seasmoke been eyeing him for awhile.

Corlys is officially the hand of the rightful Queen of the 7 kingdoms.

We got canon bisexual Rhaenyra. Although I wish she was kissing another beautiful Velaryon instead, Laena I miss you so much baby, that was for me. Her and Mysaria kissing before Jace and Baela is egregious to me though. I'm just saying why everybody locking lips before the main og star couple?Rhaenyra smacking men, 100000s across the boards. She should've been doing that sooner but better late than never I suppose. That lady is still in her resentment of her husband era. Her face when Jace said they needed Daemon 🤣🤣🤣😭😭😭 She's sick of hearing about that man. He's right btw, Rhaenyra go get him, he's out there giving our diva Simon grief. Mysaria actually helping her with PR and actually giving her great advice. I love women supporting women! Her sending food with her banners for the common folk was so politically savvy. Mysaria being one of the few that is actually coming in clutch to help her to win the war 😉. I still don't trust her though, something about this entire thing tells me it's gonna end badly for her. I'll enjoy them trauma dumping and bonding on one another before the shit hits the fan though. I know doomed Yuri when I see it. Jace and that one guard immediately knowing something is up with both of them is sending me though. She took off at the end of the episode to go confront her ex-husband's new dragon rider and Syrax about to be screaming at her dragon ex husband too apparently. 🤣🤣

Since they're essentially changing the entire plot and the leaks that I thought were written like fanfiction might actually be true could we get Jace surviving the battle of the gullet? It's not slated for this season but I'm here to spread my agenda. Since we're essentially fucking canon atp instead of in certain scenarios and all this for Bran the broken to sit the Iron Throne (I'm still fuckin disgusted and furious at that btw, fuck you D&D) could they switch that shit up? Let's come together and manifest it guys.

Until next week guys. I better see Baela, Rhaena, Jace and more dragons though. I'm here for them and them only.

And another thing, could you guys stop leaking shit. I block words and myself from certain pages and sites but y'know how stuff still slips through the cracks. Have some decorum and etiquette please!

SEASON 2 EPISODE 7 THOUGHTS

i wonder how rhaenyra will discover that addam is corlys’s son. because there’s no way that can stay a secret, right? either corlys himself will make it known when he asks her to legitimize him or mysaria (if she knows—which i assume she does or will soon). i understand why addam didn’t just tell her outright, even if it would have been easier in some ways. corlys is still his liege lord before anything else and airing out his dirty laundry probably wouldn’t get him a pat on the back from papa either.

NEW TULLY LORD!!!! oscar and his men outnumber daemon, so he can afford to get a bit sassy. it’s a shame about willem though. oh well! i knew he was toast as soon as he started pleading with daemon to rescue him…he doesn’t give a fuck my boy😭 plus all the war crimes

more visions of viserys. i didn’t find this one very compelling, seeing as it’s just “i never wanted to be king boo hoo. why do you want this shit so bad?” when it is all so very obvious. and no alys????? i better see at least 10 minutes of screen time from her in the next episode.

we finally got an emotional outburst from jacaerys! thank the gods. his mother royally fucked him over by making him bastard-born and now (despite it being necessary) weakens his only claim to legitimacy. he has every right to be upset. as aegon2 once said: “everybody knows.” he loves his mother and is loyal to her, but he can’t quite cope with the danger she’s put him in. and she could never fully appreciate what it means for her sons, even if she does hear the insults. she can’t bolster her own claim without weakening his. poor jace, luke, & joffrey. they were truly doomed from the start. my sweet boys :(

we finally had a proper gathering of potential dragonriders and not just one measly person at a time. that’s good. i don’t like that they all had blonde hair, though. you’re telling me all the other bastards got white hair but not rhaenyra’s heirs? the blood of the dragon is just that strong? jacey is so doomed by the narrative.

also…hugh son of saera????? i was kind of hoping he’d just say her name but i guess we’re being coy about it. it’s a fun easter egg i suppose but 1. it reaffirms the targaryen blood purity BS they were just questioning two seconds ago and 2. poor saera not only had a shit dad that shamed her but also a failson who’s embarrassed of his rich sexy princess mother #justiceforsaera

alicent deciding to fuck off into the woods was the right decision. it’s probably the last moment of peace she’ll ever have. so hey, why not run away and go for a swim, take in the fresh air, ride a horse, and dream of disappearing forever? i said it before, but her part in this power struggle is basically over. now all she can do is wait.

am i wrong or did aemond send his brother’s bffs to the wall? i can’t remember their names and i don’t care to look it up, but it seems the most likely.

larys wants aegon to recover so bad lmao. i know he will eventually, but still. give it a rest bro i doubt he is as charmed by your camaraderie as you think he is…especially since you’re making him speedrun these physical therapy sessions! i’m surprised he’s still bothering with these people. he also basically fucks off in f&b and then reappears later. i wonder if that’s going to happen in the show or if he’s here to stay.

alrighty. the scales have tipped in rhaenyra’s favor. now she has seven dragons: syrax, vermax, moondancer, seasmoke, vermithor, silverwing, and caraxes (kind of). sheepstealer hasn’t been seen in the show yet, but since rhaena will probably claim him we can tentatively add his name to the roster. in f&b the blacks also had tyraxes, who i believe was shown last episode but is obviously still a baby. team green has vhagar and now tessarion. dreamfyre as well, even though i don’t believe she’s been shown before. i assume they’ll have to now unless the showrunners want to make the balance very dramatically skewed. and princess jaehaera has morghul but he also hasn’t been shown, and in f&b he was never even ridden. sunfyre is dead i think? so yeah, wow. sky lizards abound.

can’t wait for more! i’m sad we only have one more episode of this season. but hey, at least george said the writers are meeting up soon for season 3. hopefully we’ll only wait one year instead of 2😆

House of the Dragon

Aegon is attempting to walk but he’s being pushed to fast to soon and is in agony when he falls, Larys comes into help the grand maester to get him back to bed. He tells Aegon he needs to try harder and has been getting the grand maester to push him further.

Rhaena is leaving the Vale with Aegon and Viserys but instead runs off to the spot where the dragon has been feeding. I think she’s hoping to claim it when it comes past.

Alicent is slumming it in the Kingswood in a very simple tent without handmaids and finery. Ser Rickard wants to know when she will return to the city but she’s doesn’t want to.

Jace confronts Rhaenyra about her plan to use bastards as dragon riders and is annoyed that Mysaria seems to be behind the plan. Rhaenyra and him argue about their lack of options and a devastated Jace questions his legitimacy as heir if any bastard can claim a dragon since he knows Harwin is his father. Rhaenyra does her best to comfort him but this is their only path to victory. Jace was really harsh by calling Targaryen bastards mongrels, I wonder if that’s about some deep seated resentment he has about his own illegitimacy and childhood insecurity from his uncles and their mother calling him a bastard and pointing out his lack of Valyrian looks.

Corlys passes a message from Mysaria to Alyn to get word to Lady Elinda in Kingslanding and questions him if his mother Marilda may have had Targaryen blood but Alyn doesn’t know and informs his that Addam has always aspired to be more than a shipwright and will do their family proud. The spy network spreads the word about the sowing of the seeds and a boat for potential dragon riders leaves tonight. Hugh has lost his daughter and his wife doesn’t want him to go to Dragonstone, he confesses that his mother was a whore and a Targaryen princess (Princess Saera who would be Daemon’s aunt not sister) so he wants to use his blood to make something of himself. Ulf gets peer pressured by his drinking buddies to try and claim a dragon since he’s always boasted about being Baelon’s son.

[xcountingstars]

I have so many thoughts on today’s episode of House of the Dragon. First off, I think it was the best episode so far this season.

•In no particular order, here are my favorite bits:

1. Lord Oscar Tully is a bamf. Kid is 13 or 14 years old, and already a wise and just leader. He brought Daemon to heel, and I am 1000% here for it.

2. Jacaerys confronting Rhaenyra about his parentage and how he is also a bastard, and his claim being threatened because the edge he had over others—his dragon—will be lost once the dragonseeds claim dragons of their own. It was his idea to have others with Targaryen blood claim dragons, but it’s backfired on him. Harry Collett’s acting shone through, here. I also enjoyed how he called Rhaenyra out for taking advice from Mysaria and not keeping him in the know, asking if the dragonseeds were her idea. The sass!

3. Alicent’s sojourn to the Godswood and the calm, peaceful nature of it. Lovely scenery, great cinematography.

4. The claiming of the dragons itself. Very tense. I really liked Ulf and Silverwing’s scene, Ulf surrendering to his fear and Silverwing ultimately calming down and choosing him. Hugh and Vermithor had a standoff, which was epic in its own right, but angrier.

5. Larys Strong continuing to be sneaky and looking after his own interests, choosing to ignore the information that Ironrod gave him. The scene near the end when they exchange glances was priceless.

6. The end shot with Rhaenyra, Vermithor, Syrax and Silverwing was powerful and exciting.

•Now for the bit I didn’t like:

1. Rhaena leaving the Vale. Too short of a scene. I feel like we should have been given at least a tiny glimpse of the dragon she’s searching for, a little tease to give the scene more impact.

———————————————————————————

As for the post-episode debrief, I think this is the first week that I actually didn’t take issue with what Condal chose to discuss!

TLDR; I really liked today’s episode, and I am excitedly looking forward to next week’s finale!

Thursday, February 29, 2024 2:15pm ET: Feature LP: Lari White - Stepping Stone (1998)

Stepping Stone is the fourth studio album by American country music artist Lari White. Released on July 28, 1998 as her first album for Lyric Street Records after leaving RCA Nashville. The album’s title track was a Top 20 hit on the Billboard Hot Country Singles & Tracks (now Hot Country Songs) charts in mid-1998; “Take Me” and “John Wayne Walking Away” were also released as singles. The track…

[outlanderalien]

Idk, I think Ulf is allowed to be "annoying" since the Targs kind of starved him and the small-folk of Kings Landing, then offered a select chosen few the opportunity to burn alive on the off chance one might get a dragon and subsequently escape the aforementioned inflicted poverty and starvation.

IDK that's just me, but personally if I somehow survived and suddenly found myself highly important to a powerful house that just put me through All That I'd probably be worse than annoying.
