Then the dragons made some compelling points by looking at us with their beady dragon eyes, so we decided to compromise! 11:15 it is.

neutral · AI labelView post →Really noticed this a lot with Abigail Thorn in House of the Dragon too. Like, ever since the later seasons of GoT the fandom has been very adamant that the show quality was the result of bad writing and the actors were still deserving of praise. But when its a trans woman, fandom blames performer
neutral · AI labelView post →that’s the problem though House of the Dragon is a thing, it’s not THE THING even if you like the show, it’s inarguable that it has a tiny fraction of the cultural impact its predecessor once did, nobody is naming their kids after Rhaenyra

If we’re gonna have ads just put them in scheduled breaks.
