All the killing and hissing and undead horde swarming, and it’s all over now. We might be gone, but WE FUCKED UP YOUR WALKWAYS AND RAILINGS #GoT#GameOfThrones
I’d forgotten about this S6 scene where the red woman— not THE red woman, another one—weirds out Varys by telling him facts about when he got gelded as a kid. Kinda feels like a setup that the writers left hanging and forgot about, huh? #GoT#GoTS6
“The Lord of Light wants men burned. The Drowned God wants them drowned. Why are all the gods such vicious cunts? Where is the God of Tits and Wine?”

S2 Ep8, “The Prince of Winterfell”
#GoT#GameOfThrones
Wait a sec, they actually brought actors to locations who weren’t in the scene just to fake out fans so they wouldn’t know what characters lived & died & etc? #TheLastWatch#DecoyActorHoldingFee
Rewatched the pilot. They say twice that the fat king rode for a month to get from the capital to Winterfell. Hell, I white walk faster than that. #GoT#gameofthrones
“Despite his appropriation of kraken imagery, this melon-headed buffoon has NO association with House Greyjoy or the Ironborn, and does not speak for us. What has a huge head must ever lie.”

@ellariasnake@GameOverRos @DDWGenealogy I’m almost to the point where I’m making my whole income from genealogy. Making a living doing something that I truly love to do is the best
@you_there_boy Some other fav ancestral names (New England puritans): Silence Hand (talk to the hand), Cornelise Lambertsen Cool, Remembrance Lippincott, Fear Brewster, and Experience Strong who married Zerubbabel Filer, making her Experience Strong Filer.
@you_there_boy But every so often there are some oddball names that are delightful. Example: i have a direct ancestor named Onesiphorous Marsh. I’m thinking, oh, did the whole family get weird Old Testament names, but then I look: his siblings are John, Thomas, Elizabeth, etc. Ouch.
@you_there_boy Amen, my friend. I was a genealogy hobbyist for 20+ years. Hobbyists are the lifeblood of the field. Ancestral naming practices and oddities always fascinate me. I see lots of families like you describe, everyone with the same 5 traditional names...
@you_there_boy Of course, some astute future genealogist is going to see a child named Khaleesi or Danaerys and confidently estimate their Burt between 2011 and 2018
