I will admit though, the Night King dying off screen halfway through the season and then Euron becoming the big bad of out nowhere and dying in a blast of wildfire because Drogon is an idiot is an amazingly hilarious twist.

Euron literally smears her with poo poo and hangs her from the walls of KL. Everyone fights elephants. Arya kills Cersei. Hound kills The Mountain. Jaime, Snow, Hound die fighting Euron (who also dies) when Drogon sets a bunch of dragon fire and it explodes a bunch of the city....again. Tell me more about the girl with the boobs.

So I'll admit this is a really stupid question to ask about a series of books that will never be finished and honestly were never that good anyway, but it's a thing in this setting the winter is incredibly rare but lasts like a decade when it happens, right? Soooo, why the hell isn't everyone in westeros loving dead from starving to death? I'm pretty sure having to go like, 2 years without a new harvest even in the modern day would be loving apocalyptic, to say nothing on how totally screwed a feudal society with a vaguely medieval tech level would be. I mean, this is a friggin meteor blotting out the sun minus the actual impact. A big flaming stink fucked around with this message at 01:05 on Jan 19, 2018 |

A big flaming stink posted:So I'll admit this is a really stupid question to ask about a series of books that will never be finished and honestly were never that good anyway, I believe the winter isn’t nearly as bad in the reach (aka the breadbasket of the seven kingdoms) and is non-existent in whatever that desert kingdom is called. I think it is only terrible in the North and beyond the wall, and other than that it’s just dreary and probably deadly for the small folk if their lords haven’t saved up enough food beforehand or gotten enough rotten apples or whatever it is the reach fames up before winter hits. GRRM said that the weather is tied to *magic* so I guess it is folly to try to think of it as making any kind of sense outside of whatever the author needs it to do.

A big flaming stink posted:So I'll admit this is a really stupid question to ask about a series of books that will never be finished and honestly were never that good anyway, They don't always last 10 years. They usually last a couple years. Tyrion has seen eight or nine in his lifetime, and the one he was born during lasted ~3 years. The long night, the mythical winter from 8000 years ago lasted "a generation", so probably like 20-30 years. On the version of Earth we live on, a 3 year winter would kill most plants and animals, and a 20-30 year winter would definitely kill almost everything. Westeros is not on our earth, however, and presumably animals have ways to survive the protracted winters (Perhaps a lot of them migrate? Winter seems far less harsh south of The Neck). Their other seasons are also unusually long, so they could have a spring or summer that lasts for years also, and they regularly store good sized chunks of their harvest for use during winter.

The general implication seems to be that once the Night King dies the seasons will go back to normal.

It’s not like they have one year of summer/harvest and then 2 years of winter. There’s multiple growing cycles during the summer/fall so they just store a shitload of food waiting for winter. And when it does last longer than normal all the olds go ‘hunting’ to die in the forest to save food. It’s pretty bleak. And one of the main reasons the watch kills Jon because he’s giving all the food they stored up to the wildling savages and there isn’t enough time for them to actually grow anything in the land they’re given. And now i’ve mildly effortposted about this dumb poo poo, thanks.

It's depressing how correct you are. The usual zero-depth outrage feminist blogs will be full of blazing takes about it despite showing zero interest in this ultra popular pile of rape and poo poo thus far.

The most hilarious example of that was how The Mary Sue reacted to Sansa getting raped by Ramsay (which in and of itself was already lovely). They posted this big self-righteous article about how they were never going to publish another article that even mentioned GOT tangentially again because the show was dead to them. And then before the year was up they were talking about GOT again.

There's so, so much to unpack in the show from a feminist perspective but online feminist analysis can't seem to go deeper than "bad things happened to women in this show and that's bad" which is really disappointing.

And that is unfortunate, because generally The Mary Sue is quite good at doing just that with other things. ...For a website that’s owned by Dan Abrams, I mean.
