“Romantic obsession is my first language. I live in a world of fantasies, infatuations and love poems. Sometimes I wonder if the yearning I’ve felt for others was more of a yearning for yearning itself. I’ve pined insatiably and repeatedly: for strangers, new lovers, unrequited flames. While the subjects changed, that feeling always remained. Perhaps, then, I have not been so infatuated with the people themselves, but with the act of longing.”
— Melissa Broder, from “Life without Longing,” The New York Times (9 February 2019)
physically speaking i’m alive and at home. emotionally? i’ve been dead at the bottom of a ravine in vermont for 11 days and they just discovered my body due to heavy snowfall burying me for the past week.
no wonder everyone in the seventies was off the shits. can you imagine living in a time when abba was releasing music? imagine turning on the radio and hearing ABBA’S NEW SONG. i wouldn’t know what to do with myself
“Women have minds and souls as well as just hearts, and they’ve got ambition and talent as well as just beauty. And I’m sick of people saying that love is all a woman is fit for. I’m so sick of it! But… I’m so lonely!”
cant wait until they turn the entire vatican city into a big museum and you can like sit on the pope’s throne and take selfies and also the catholic church doesn’t exist anymore because it fucking sucks
2. GENDRYA- This might be what I’m looking forward to the most, oops. I’m a big fan of the theory that Gendry is actually the legitimate child of Cersei and Robert, the black haired son that only lived for a few days then “died”. This becoming canon would only make it better to me tbh. Also: I love the parallel of another Baratheon boy falling in love with a Stark girl, hopefully it works out better this time around. Imagine Ned and Robert looking down on their kids, seeing their houses finally united :’-)
3. Jon is 100% going to ride Rhaegal by the end of the show. Not even a question. This will be utter Targaryen badassery. A new word for shook will have to be invented.
4. Jaime the valonqar will finally kill Cersei, the bitch we all love to hate. (I would like to see Arya kill her because of the list, but I think Jaime being the one to strangle her would allow the ironic and sometimes satisfying course of plot that GoT usually follows) Either way, her days are numbered and she knows it.
5. Lmao we all know Daenerys is totes pregnant with a Targaryen/Targaryen/Stark child after boat sex. Way too much foreshadowing throughout the 7th season for her not to be. So can we start a royal baby name pool already? Eddard, Lyanna, Robb and of course Jon jr. are all likely names.
6. Theon could easily die while saving Yara from Euron. If he somehow survives, he’ll get killed later in some heroically redeeming way while trying to protect a Stark or something. Probz Bran or Sansa. Still wondering why Dan & Dave let his storyline go on this long anyway.
