What is your favorite #HotD podcast? I’ve got @RadioWesteros , @GameOfOwns , @WesterosHistory , the official HBO podcast, House of R and Talk the Thrones with @jowrotethis and @MalloryRubin … what else should I be listening to?

[Ana Flaxes @2askylark]

@GameOfOwns Own to Alicent and the sigh and eye roll she gives to her dad when he tells her she looks like her mother…

@AltShiftX Why were there two teams out looking for Aegon? Why would it matter who got to him first? And why would Criston and Arryk come to blows over it?

[Ana Flaxes @2askylark]

@MeereeneseKnot I’ve been tellung ppl how much I love the show’s ability to give so much more nuance and depth to the characters that we don’t get in the books. But this is a little too much nuance on Larys’ character for me. Just… ew.

As a femme cis woman, I include my pronouns (she/her) in my work email signature to increase visibility but mostly to piss people off who are upset by things like pronouns.

Be diligent and check your child's candy this year, just found a negroni sbagliato with prosecco shoved inside a Twix. No words.

@danaMpatton @LibertyParkNJ Wow! Gorgeous shot. Would frame that one.

[Ana Flaxes @2askylark]

@JustReddz How do I not remember this scene? Who has Baelish pinned against the wall?

[Ana Flaxes @2askylark]

Ah, the never ending dilemma of the childfree - long hot shower then nap? Or nap THEN long hot shower?

@Thrones_Facts And Hodor. Don’t forget to make sure your stableboy is standing in the front row when you greet the king.

@GameOfOwns Least annoyed with Rhaenyra but they constantly show how poorly she plays the game of thrones (I said the thing). V told her to shore up her claim.. so she goes and has three obvious bastards. Hard to defend. Still, I’m not loving Alicent’s shrill and paranoid characterization.

[Ana Flaxes @2askylark]

@thedragonLML There are other forms of intimacy than full on mouth kisses. Daemon kisses Laena’s belly. There is love and tenderness. Baela kisses Daemon and Laena goodnight. Corlys and Rhaenys speak to and hold each other in a way that absolutely implies intimacy. You can show and not tell.

@Sherlock_Homo28 I know I always thought it was so weird that they knighted Brienne and Pod sang “Jenny’s Song” and then they ended the series right there at episode two of the final season and nothing bad ever happened ever again.

[Ana Flaxes @2askylark]

@GameOfOwns 99% of my owns to Lady Laena getting her dragonrider death. The rest to princess Helaena’s weird bug girl energy. I’m here for it.

[Ana Flaxes @2askylark]

@russodelos That’s a nice little redemption arc you’ve got there, Jamie. Would be a shame if, you know… something happened to it.

[Ana Flaxes @2askylark]

I haven’t been doing the Twitter for a while but I’m BACK because I need the #hotd hot takes.

[Ana Flaxes @2askylark]

@theyolkboy I think the shame of sullying his white cloak for Rhaenyra is what causes him to crack here. I mean, the poor guy ASKS to be executed. And when Joffrey (unknowingly) rubs it in his face again, he just snaps.
