The HotD ensemble is so good in this episode partly because everyone is split up into pairs: Rhaenyra/Daemon, Alicent/Halaena, Larys/Aegon, Ormund/Daeron, Alys/Aemond, Addam/Baela, Criston/Gawain, Oscar/Roddy, Torrhen/Sabbitha. Everyone’s got a cool buddy dynamic except for Tyland the 3rd wheel.

The metric system is superior in most cases but Europe should really adopt Fahrenheit for weather because it’s really great for driving home the severity of a hot ass day. “Be careful its gonna be 37 degrees!” just doesn’t cut it. It’s gonna be a goddamn HUNDRED!

People criticizing End It’s banana man incident by equating their defenders to someone saying “She asked for it by dressing like that” are cursed forever and they will die in a mosh pit or crowd crush.
