people actually went on about how game of thrones made it socially acceptable to be a fantasy nerd, as though the lord of the rings movies hadn't been released less than a decade earlier and left far greater cultural ripples and i am just
got may have made the adults feel better about liking fantasy, but lotr got into the kids' heads when they (we) were just young and impressionable enough to be absolutely transported and emotionally rewritten by don't you leave him, samwise gamgee and my brother, my captain, my king and and rohan will answer
lotr was rewriting entire generations' brain chemistry long before asoiaf and so obviously it's not fair to compare any post-lotr fantasy novel to it, and each book series was trying to do different things within their own spheres and so that also is not a fair comparison, but in terms of the cultural impact of the adaptations that came out within a decade of each other, saying that it was game of thrones that made fantasy mainstream is baffling
game of thrones could only run because the lord of the rings movies laid the path, and i will die on this hill

so i’m watching youtube vids of Destiel and those ‘out of context’ vids and TELL ME WHY i don’t remember half of these scenes because oh my God this is so OMG like so fucking it’s a fucking fever dream like I don’t know what to tell you after season 7?! I don’t fucking know fever dream, fever, dream, but all I know is that Destiel is canon and Sam supports it, so does everyone else.
this is why we need filler episodes. I mean, dog!dean. like whattttt that happened and i just forgot????

extraordinary attorney woo is so important to me because to me the show is one huge shout of affirmation that woo young woo is loved. by herself, by her friends, by her work colleagues, by her dad, by her boyfriend, by the writers of the show, by the actor who plays her, by the audience. she’s loved. not in spite of her autism, not because of it - she’s autistic and she’s loved. sometimes imperfectly, sometimes ignorantly, but she’s loved loved loved like the human being she is.
