Mr. Neil, I Have A Question For You Regarding The Third Season Of The Series Good Omens, I Have Heard

I understand what you mean, and boy howdy I can already see this splitting the fandom by arguing over it's inclusion as a slight departure from the comics...

Invincible s3 finale spoilers!!

I am so sorry for what I'm about to say to all Conquest enjoyers. However.

His little monolgue thingy at Mark felt a lot like this image.

I can't explain much why it just felt like random trauma dumping idk. I guess you could argue that because he had no rules or regulations for his mission he felt more open about sharing his expierence with him since he thought was going to kill Mark anyways and it gave him a little bit of hope that not all viltrumites or half ones like Mark are heartless especially earlier he says something about having the heart of one. ...damn I think I talked myself out of my initial reaction to this scene lol just a bit...it's still funny tho especially the way he words it about not having anybody want to be his friend idk it sounds like a teenager who's the loner kid but there's a reason why nobody wants to friends with them yknow 😭

They really don't know how to support female characters without pitting them against each other, and it shows. Its not impossible to like *both* Stark sisters, you know.

Ship girl stans like to talk how she is the champion of the smallfolk and the trash talk Jeyne Poole an actual commoner for calling Ary@ "horseface'' way back in the book one, i swear to God some of them did not move from the AGOT and it shows

That's pretty much all Sansa antis, not just the shipcels. They're mentally stuck on book 1 and never left (it also explains why they all still think Ship Girl is an oppressed underdog and Dani is still being victimized).

The thing is, yes, we saw Sansa at her worst there (though that's not saying much when other characters' worst is murder or rape) but we also saw her at her most innocent and sweet. I never had a problem liking or empathizing with AGOT!Sansa and it's weird to me so many people do.

Also, if they wanna judge the Starks in book 1, they should talk about Jon's moodiness and Ar.ya literally beating Sansa up. They're lucky their faves don't get negatively judged by first impressions.

Well spoken sir/ma'am.

"You came out whiter!"; Racism and the Walkerton twins

As the only girl who was of mixed ethnicities on her white mother’s side of the family, and who had up until now been forced to largely ignore any other side of her, the story of Sal Walkerton (and the drama from the internet) strikes home. So many people are saying “How can Walky be ‘whiter, they’re twins!” and it’s just… a little offensive to be honest, because it’s suggesting that racial traits have no bearing on racism, just skin color. That two people who look alike wouldn’t be treated differently if one acted differently than the other. Even worse, people are using their last line of defense and saying, “Well how can they be racist to their own children, they’re their parents”, which just erases the concept of parental-child abuse.

Because people are being… either ignorant, or oblivious when it comes to subtle plot hinting, here some of the moments where it’s been made pretty clear that Walky has at least considered himself different than Sal in terms of the whole race issue. I actually dug into the archives SPECIFICALLY because people keep saying “it was never made apparent,” or that Sal was just making a low jab to get at Walky. And, well… I found even more evidence than what I originally remembered going into it.

It starts to become noticeable around a year ago:

all these fucking fools on my dashboard talk about how they love bats but only show pictures of fruit bats fuck you start posting pictures of all bats i can’t stand this fucking bat erasure

How sweet of you, Mister President Trump 🙄

Reminder for when he “saves” it. He was the one who wanted this, and now he gets to be the hero and win favour with young constituents. Don’t give him the credit for fixing his own problem.

I am going to regret asking, aren't I? What happened?

In light of recent events

This is all of course hinging on the (not entirely unfounded) assumption that Jon is going to get the same resurrection as in the show.

Which will sting more for Jonerys shippers? Reviving him just in time for him to learn the horrible truth and want -100% to do with his aunt?

Or Martin going for broke and having him stay dead and nobody; not Bran and his visions of the past, not Sam finding secret records of Rhaegar annuling his marriage so he can wed Lyanna, nobody finds out Jon Snow's heritage. Ned Stark's greatest secret will forever go to the grave with him, and the cruelty and pointlessness of his death proves the final nail in the coffin of the Prophecy of Ice and Fire?

targ stans love book!jon now but will turn on him the moment he thinks dany is kinda weird 😭

Jon looking at the burned remnants of KL,

"Dany did this? What a fucking weirdo" 😂

I just think it would be a shame for all the history between the families to be brushed aside rather than culminating in an interesting way? As in, Aerys murdered Jon's grandad, his uncle, and Rhaegar ran off with Jon's mother only for her to die. In addition to any anger about being lied to about his birth, grief over his mother, the loss is of learning he is not Ned’s son, Jon should feel the full weight of Ned claiming him as his own to protect him -- despite what the Targs did to his family. Shouldn’t Jon then have some feelings about a Targ invading Westeros? Even if his dad was a Targ? It makes it interesting because on the one hand, there’s a unique connection there to allow layers in a confrontation (they’re family!), but on the other, few have greater reason to be opposed.

For Jon "Let them say that Eddard Stark had fathered four sons, not three" to have no opinion on a Targ brutally conquering Westeros after Ned tried to get rid of them, well, it would feel like a waste of all that backstory? Also, shouldn’t he have thoughts about Dany specifically after she kills Aegon, after the Dothraki do what she's gonna be incapable of preventing, after the destruction of a city with unimaginable civilian deaths? So not only pre canon puts him on guard, but then what transpires in canon will horrify him?

Even if we take it out of the Targ v Stark context, very early on we learn Ned had to chase Jorah down for being a slaver and Mormont told Jon what a disgrace Jorah was, so Jon got the "Jorah Mormont is a loser" message coming from two father figures. Doesn’t that seem like a deliberate choice by the author? To prime Jon to despise a man he’s written as obsessed with Dany? And of course, there's Tyrion, a Lannister who wanted to hold the North by marrying Jon's little sister who will be with Dany too, so there’s just all sorts of angles to approach a Jon and Dany meeting, none of which bode well.

So much fun stuff to dig into! To ignore it seems like a far less exciting take. But yeah, judging by the reaction to show Jon, I don’t think the fandom will take kindly to his inevitable reaction to Dany.

Amusing on two levels: one is the secret dragon baker boy's name secret name Baegael sounding like the delicious baked good known as the bagel, and of course the fact secret dragon baker boy is bae, as in the slang term for someone who is wholesome and agreeable

listen I’m so glad you all are having fun with the dragon incest show, but I need you to understand that from the outside all I see is approximately 14 posts per day of people in truly horrific wigs with captions like “baegael did nothing wrong except all the murders”

George:

Guys, I have to walk back my earlier statements.

I read Val's wiki, and I think I'm sold. I see the potential. This might be it. This might be our endgame.

I'm not kidding, see for yourselves.

America needs to step up its political verbal judo

absolutely brilliant
