On Daenerys, Colonisation and Race Discourse within the ASOIAF Fandom
This has been on my mind for a good long while and honestly, as much as I would like to leave discourse in the pits, it has been bugging me intermittently over the past few weeks.
Far too many of you get on here and call people who like the fictional dragon-riding family, neo-Nazis and that sentiment is so prevalent, that white people feel comfortable telling me a black woman that I am a neo-Nazi for rooting for Daenerys Targaryen. I am upholding neo-Nazi power fantasies for wanting to see a little girl live at the end of a story. I am a neo-Nazi for wanting to see the rape survivor have the family she aches for and children with the man (or men) she loves.
Then, those same people go on spiels about how the systemic erasure of those who sing the song of the earth and other old races is not colonialism. That their removal from their home is not displacement but an agreement between two equal parties. The fact that the only place where those who sing the song of the earth exist in the present timeline is north of the wall, surrounded by the bones of their dead, is not a travesty. That the expulsion of the old races from their home isn't that bad and should not be condemned.
Instead, people argue, completely seriously, that the harm that the First Men and Andals have caused is centuries in the past, so essentially the slate has been wiped clean. The logical leaps that are required to arrive at such a boneheaded conclusion are truly mind-boggling, and those who make such arguments are not good people.
I am unsure how one could read those books and come away with the impression that the old races do not mourn the loss of their home. I am unsure how one could read The Last of the Giants[1] and Ygritte’s reaction to both the song and Jon’s dismissal of the ethnic cleansing of the giants then believe that the old races and the free folk have moved past their displacement.
In Westeros, from the Wall to the broken arm of Dorne, they all speak one language despite the fact they are all different ethnicities and they all landed on the shores at different times. That is not the case in Essos, we have been introduced to at least six languages and in A Dance with Dragons, Tyrion notes that the Valyrian spoken in the Free Cities has evolved into nine distinct dialects, and they are well on their way to becoming different languages.
How would a continent as large and diverse as Westeros maintain its hegemony over the people if not for forced assimilation, discriminatory practices and violence? The brutal repression required to keep one house in power for thousands of years is nothing to sniff at. The suppression required to keep the vast majority of Westeros worshipping one (or seven) gods. The systems in place ensure that language does not grow or evolve amongst the highborns at least.
Centuries before Aegon's Landing the maesters were the definitive educational authority and even now centuries after, nothing has changed. The grey rats still decide who learns what and when they learn it. There's one in every highborn home, all correspondence passes through them, they are the healers and the councillors.
The circular logic gets even more blockheaded when you factor in the fact that Daenerys is far from the only white character in the books. She is not the only character who wishes for home. She is not the only character who draws strength from her ancestors, her bloodline and her magical creatures.
Cersei draws strength from her family’s iconography, and the Stark children (Jon included) all draw strength from their direwolves, their home and their blood. Sansa, Arya and Bran wish to return home and their home was built on the indiscriminate murder and displacement of the indigenous peoples. Their home is built on centuries of rape, murder, exclusionary practices and sexual slavery.
However, if we give the nonsensical argument that time erases crimes air; the Starks, Lannisters and Tullys are warring to settle personal grievances in the present timeline. As a consequence of that war, thousands (a modest guesstimate) of small folk, minor nobles and even some major ones have been raped, tortured, maimed and killed.
Despite all this, no one writes meta after meta about how Sansa and her siblings must surely die for justice to be had for those who sing the song of the earth, the free folk, the giants and all the old races that fled beyond the wall.
People write meta about Cersei and how she must die, but those are typically more misogynistic nature. They typically argue that she must die not for the “crime” of being Lannister, but for the “crime” of being Cersei and “ruining” Jamie.
I would not mind criticisms of Dany and her peace-focused approach to ending slavery because the approach is naïve and she gives the slavers far too much ground. However, she is learning, growing and self-critiquing. At the end of A Dance with Dragons, she has decided to embrace fire and blood, her knight is breaking the false peace which is a necessary step forward.
What I find offensive is people saying that she should have planned better before she abolished slavery. And that the death, violence, and sickness that arises from her quest to eradicate slavery is somehow worse than the death, violence, and sickness that already existed in Slaver’s Bay.
This argument often downplays the horrific conditions and suffering that exist(ed) under the slave system in Slaver's Bay. Such arguments are often in poor taste and prioritise the lives and comforts of the slavers more than the people they have enslaved.
I would not mind criticisms of Dany if people applied that same critique even-handedly. The same people who believe that Jon and Bran have done much to rectify the evil that their ancestors perpetuated believe that Dany has not done anything to right the wrongs of her ethnic kin. They praise them for the non-existent steps that they have taken, but in the same breath, they condemn Dany for not being able to immediately end the plague that is slavery.
It is perfectly alright to not like fictional characters, no law requires you to like certain fictional characters over others. However, what is not right is making broad accusations about those who do, it is beyond the pale. It is disgusting, and annoying, and trivialises real-world issues to score cheap points against fictional characters.
Equating the survival of a teenage survivor to the restoration of a fascist house or neo-Nazi power fantasy when such designations do not exist in the world of ice and fire is strange behaviour. Saying that the teenage survivor will eventually be manipulated and raped (again) before ending up dead on her manipulator's blade is also strange behaviour.
Dismissing the horrors of colonialism, especially when the text shows you that the involved parties are still affected by it, is not normal and often veers into real-world imperialism apologia. While criticism and analysis of characters and their actions are valid and even encouraged, it is essential that we do not resort to sweeping generalisations about other people and that we keep criticisms of characters grounded in the text.

Ooooooh, I am the last of the giants, my people are gone from the earth.
The last of the great mountain giants, who ruled all the world at my birth
Oh, the smallfolk have stolen my forests, they’ve stolen my rivers and hills.
And they’ve built a great wall through my valleys, and fished all the fish from my rills
In stone halls they burn their great fires, in stone halls they forge their sharp spears.
Whilst I walk alone in the mountains, with no true companion but tears.
They hunt me with dogs in the daylight, they hunt me with torches by night.
For these men who are small can never stand tall, whilst giants still walk in the light.
Oooooooh, I am the LAST of the giants, so learn well the words of my song.
For when I am gone the singing will fade, and the silence shall last long and long.
#I do not like most of y’all.#Do not call people of colour you do not know neonazis to win points against a fictional character.#It is not my fault that most of your faves are boring and do nothing to drive the plot forward#take it up with george rr martin and stop villifying dany and her (mid) family.#The insistence that we must mind fandom etiqutte is tired as hell too especially because people use it as silencing tools.#“Yes I called you a neonazi but you are the real weirdo for finding my post so really it’s on you that you saw that.”#that’s how y’all sound.#If I see another post that equates enjoying dany to being a neonazi#i will make it everybodys problem.#Took a long break from this fandom because the rancid takes were overshadowing the good takes#and i’ve been back less than a year and the takes are even more rancid than before.#hotd opened an evil door that should’ve remained shut.#Cause why the fuck are there criston cole apologists? Why are there aemond and aegon ii apologists? It is a dark world we live in.#put the last giant at the bottom for my homies who have not read the books which if we're speaking real is more than half of y'all#now that i have gotten this out of my system#it is time to get back to demon slayer#daenerys targaryen#asoiaf#asoiaf thoughts#asoiaf nonsense#if you saw the typos in the first version#no you didn't#edited this to add some thoughts I originally put in the tags because I felt it worked better there.

listen i am geralt of rivia hater number one but one thing i actually CANNOT stand is when the fandom mischaracterizes him. took one look at this man who speaks very straight-forwardly and matter-of-fact and is a little recalcitrant with his words sometimes and went "haha he communicates in grunts! man who only says 'hm'!" and then won't even write him to speak in full fucking sentences. hello???? hello???????? yes the netflix show was a bad influence on everybody because they were trying too hard to depict geralt as a stoic manly badass but we CANNOT let that distract us from the REAL thing to make fun of geralt for. which are his Constant Unprovoked Monologues
#also the fact that he fakes his dumb stupid little rivian accent because the man was NOT raised in rivia. but i digress#'haha he only says hm!' where were you for every episode when he launched into a speech about the lesser evil. that's like. the whole thing#geralt of rivia will do nothing But talk once you let him. don't give that bitch a chance! he'll start up about honor again!!!#convinced that most of this is because netflix show insisted on showing us him around jaskier so much#and jaskier does not shut up. love him to death. but geralt genuinely does not have time to get a word in edgewise#i will admit that this is something that i had to learn by reading the books and paying more attention to it#but it's not like he DOESN'T do it in the show. if you ever sit with a witcher episode transcript for whatever reason#and really take a look at geralt's lines. man he talks a whole fucking lot.#again cannot emphasize enough that he Monologues. HE TALKS HIS WAY OUT OF SO MANY SITUATIONS.#me when i look filavandrel of the elves in the eyes and 'hm' at him and he lets me go. no bitch he monologued!!!!#terrible. terrible. let this man speak. if i see you fanfic bitches continue making him talk in sentence fragments again i'm gonna kill#as for my own fanfic. i will always prefer a geralt who talks too much to be believable over a geralt who barely speaks at all.#both because i believe in letting him speak his mind which he OBVIOUSLY likes to do. sideeyes him.#and because it's just fucking boring and a little annoying to read speech patterns that don't sound like how people talk.#cough cough lan wanji the untamed. man i'm not sitting here and reading this motherfucker's two word sentences#let him speak!!!!!!#anyway.#geralt of rivia#the witcher#fanfic

i have a teeny, tiny superiority complex because i didn’t watch the atla live action.
#but i appreciate the ones who sacrificed their mind to watch the show and report back#y’all are so brave. thank you for examining the danger and relying the information back to me so i wouldn’t have to.#i have read so much about this show and i will literally never watch it#i actually intended to but got locked out of netflix when it premiered#then i heard all the shitty things about it and said “fuck that noise”#they took everything from me#they took away zuko’s character development for the sake of “time” not even gonna touch that it makes me so angry#they took away sokka’s character development for the sake of being “woke”#which was actually very very un-woke of them#they took away katara’s passion & anger and made her a flat boring person#i loved her anger so much????#they took away our shock at the OG southern air temple ep#seeing monk gyatso in a room full of firebenders he had been forced to kill >>> seeing the actual genocide as if we didn’t already know#they took away aang’s sweet childishness and made him way too mature#it sounds like the only people who enjoyed it were zutara fans because of the scarf scene#y’all can keep it. it’s yours. i don’t want it.#atla original#avatar the last airbender#atla aang#atla zuko#atla katara#atla sokka#avatar the last airbender aang#avatar the last airbender katara#avatar the last airbender zuko#avatar the last airbender sokka#aang#katara#sokka#zuko

it's kind of weird to me that they didn't bother releasing sushi and tempura internationally at all but at the same time i'm kinda glad they didn't cuz like. yo-kai watch was financially failing in the west by the time 3 released. i feel like if they had released sushi and tempura the franchise would've completely tanked before we got sukiyaki which would've sucked. honestly if anything i feel like it's more surprising that we got all three versions of 2 instead of them just releasing psychic specters but tbf i think yo-kai watch was doing well in the west when 2 released. 2 is just inexplicably what killed the franchise despite being a masterpiece-
#puppy rambles#yo-kai watch#yw3#yw2#idk. i have a lot of thoughts on this stuff#still upset i didn't find out 3 released in america until a while after it did :/ could've gotten a physical copy if i'd found out earlier#but alas. i'm just stuck with a boring digital version. i mean the digital versions of yo-kai watch games are better but like. still#i never got maginyan in blasters even though i could've. the code or whatever was on the receipt but my mom bought it for me#from the nintendo website. and i don't think she checked it and i don't think i found out that was where it was until a bit after i got it-#i did get machonyan and jibanyan t/komasan t's codes entered though so i can get them on any playthrough now#unless i put the sd card in another 3ds since apparently it's system-based instead of sd card based??? which is really stupid#but you can probably bypass that with cfw and i do plan on modding my 3ds eventually#it'll just be a process cuz i don't have an sd card slot on my computer and idk if my moms would be willing to help#so i'll probably have to get a separate sd card reader or whatever. which i do think my moms would be okay with i mean#it's my system and they're cool with piracy lfskdjfjkfsdkljfd-#my moms are so cool <3 i just wish i could get them interested in yo-kai watch but they don't seem to care lfskdjfkjsfdjlksfd-#they determined the battle system doesn't sound fun but i might've just described it badly#i mean tbf. it is very annoying sometimes. especially when my healer just will not heal the other yo-kai#''DO YOUR FUCKING JOB TATTLECAST STOP LOAFING'' -me playing 2#that being said if 1's switch port ever releases in america i am totally playing it on the tv#i WILL force my moms to watch me play funni ghost game whether they like it or not /lh#if we do ever get 1's switch port i hope they make it a collection of some kind with 2 and 3 remasters too i would buy that in a heartbeat#i mean obviously i will buy any american-released yo-kai watch stuff in a heartbeat aside from maaaaaybe y-school heroes#(i'm sorry y-school heroes fans i just cannot get into it. from concept alone it sounds like i would not enjoy it)#maybe sangokushi too if we ever get that but i feel like we probably won't#idk if the franchise it's a crossover with is popular enough in america for that#i hope we get more english yo-kai watch content once ghost craft releases. kinda feel like it's testing the waters tbh#i know it's seemingly just a spiritual successor but still#i do hope that it being a spiritual successor doesn't mean yo-kai watch is over. i doubt that it will since like#punipuni still gets semi-frequent updates

The subject came up today and I can't decide so I'm throwing it out there because I don't give a fuck and also having survived all of this kinda makes me sound like a badass
#my life sounds exciting here but between the exciting parts it's really quite boring#ages:#8. 9. 10? 16. 17. 18. 21 I think. 23. 27. still living#near death experience#also it may have been category one but Wikipedia described Isaias as devastating so there#i want to say it was the dogs because even as scary as the too-close tornado was I really felt like I was staring down death that moment#but also is that fair in the face of everything else I've survived?#fuck it why not set it for a week I'm curious about what other people think of my life#also that tornado was less than a block away but mostly stayed in the soy field. ripped off some of the roofing of the house tho#it was either EF0 or EF1 I forget but obvs I didn't know that while hunkering down#turns out tornadoes really DO sound like trains and the air gets a bit thin#or maybe I was just panicking lol#also when my heart nearly stopped I was forced to watch while unable to speak as they readied the shock paddles which. uh. wow#luckily (?) my heart shot back up to two hundred plus beats per minute#but I lived bitches. thru everything#mecore#i don't feel awkward asking about this bc I'm p sure I've talked about all of these at various points here

sorry if this is extraordinarily pretentious but I do think it's wild that lobe piercings count as piercings in the same way a lip piercing does. it feels wrong. I have never thought of ear piercings as real piercings it seems like you should just be born with those right like they should be just in there naturally
#i have had my lobes pierced 3 times so like i have 6 extra holes in my ears but theyre closed and if they werent i dont think id count them#because its just a lobe piercing? if you can get it as a whole ass baby it doesnt count to me jfksvsjsbdbd SORRY if this is mean its just#its SO normie. which isnt a bad thing just in my mind that makes it not count sjbsjsbs#just like if i say i have 3 piercings and I'm talking about on my actual face and then someones like oh i have 2 and its just their lobes#im gonna be like hm ok#anyway umm this is all to say that I'm sorry but if you have no facial piercings at all i am always going to think youre boring#and i dont mean that in a mean way. we need boring people to make the rest of us look cool#just funny to me when people are like oh no facial piercings seem so risky and scawy like have u seen an 80 yr old womans lobe piercings#those mfs may as well have been stretched for gauges. also ear piercings seem to get infected more ime#also ive seen people have their earrings fully ripped out but never a facial piercing unfortunately#also i can't think of anything more metal than that lmfao. that sounds gross and painful but sick as FUCK

Going to try and finally get this essay rough draft finished (due 13hrs from now) and beat writers block through the power of comics blorbo. Will update on success when done
#explanation comes after essay#blah#need to add like 1000 words and also my focus right now is shitty and thats what i think is causing the problem. need to frame it as an#expansion of existing policy rather than a change to the existing prior one. strengthen the band aid on the fuck up as opposed to healing#the wound. which sounds worse but the data is not on my side with the first bc its all conflicting and classified 🙄🙄🙄#should have picked like pollution or some shit for this why am i incapable of being boring

eve and her family were initially written to be catholic (because that is the ONLY religion i have any personal experience with) but im kind of enraptured (LOL) by the very concept of rapturing. so i think i might make them evangelicals instead? that will be such a pain though i have 0 experience with evangelicals. or really protestants of any flavor.
#sanctuary#ugh maybe fundies. im having so mcuh trouble with this#bc i cant just go 'theyre christian' bc theres fucking#lutheran? orthodox? baptist? presbytarian? congregational? methodist? QUAKER???#im DEFINITELY going to be working with christianity rather than make up a religion#because im so bad at making up religions. it would just sound silly#also i like crucifix symbolism#i also feel like evangelicals are more ummmm relevant to todays america#but ughhhhhhhhh i dont even know what other churches look like inside. or what the fuck you Do in them#i really am also so entranced by a lot of catholic traditions too#rosary beads are a big thing. i even have a rosary in my room right now...#plus the fixation on mary which is relevant to EVE as a character#but it might work better if she DOESNT have that?#and the eucharist. do other christians even do that???#ok i looked it up they do but they arent literal about it. BORING!

I think writing fic is mostly making stuff up, even the most canon compliant fic is technically made up and therefore not canon in the traditional sense. And with that logic all fic is made up, and I release you to go wild in your fanfic writing dreams.
Yeah like I definitely agree, it's all just a case of degrees of separation from canon - unless you're writing for the show you're not writing truly canon fic, and even some of the show writers kinda fail at canon compliance lmao.
But tbf different people have different limits for how far they'll go and in what circumstances, and we all have our different preferences in terms of canon compliance (and our own different interpretations of canon to comply to, for that matter. Like straight Hawkeye is technically more canon compliant in terms of creator intent lol but you won't catch me reading anything where Hawkeye is straight.)
So yeah, everyone should definitely write whatever fic they want regardless of canon! But I do have my own personal limits in terms of what lines I want to cross, what's more flexible vs what I can't change without losing interest, even if it's in service to an otherwise interesting scenario.
Like to put my preferences another way, I would be more inclined to write magical AU dubcon featuring a love potion or smthn as a way to facilitate trainwreck Hawk/BJ/Peg, than I would, say, write Hawkeye agreeing to that triad because he's naive enough to think it's actually a good idea, or he loves BJ so much that he'll accept an unbalanced relationship, or he doesn't think he deserves better, etc. That's not My Hawkeye.
(Actually tbf the one non-AU way I think it could work is leaning into Hawkeye quitting his career post-canon in passive giving-up-on-everything depression, maybe his dad dying to make it even worse, and BJ innocently taking advantage, believing he's taking care of him and helping Hawkeye recover when really he's just emotionally manipulating him into becoming his second wife and giving up on his career forever.)
(Or maybe if Hawkeye lost his license...? Alcoholism, or being outed could do it easily. I feel like that could destroy him enough that he'd just cling to anything anyone offered. At least for a while.)
#the problem there however is that passive depressed hawkeye sounds boring as hell to write lol#also a little too dark at least for this particular scenario. i want dumb relationship mistakes that blow up more than misery ever after#text post#marley on mash#like what i really want is bj proposing the triad thing and hawk and peg both being on board and bj being unable to handle it#and i just don't see hawkeye not going in knowing it'll either be a bj has 2 faithful wives situation which i don't think he'd be ok with#or bj is lying about being able to handle hawkeye and peg either fucking each other or others on the side#unfortunately hawkeye is pretty emotionally intelligent#he's optimistic but not blind. i mean mmmmmmaybe bj just makes a very convincing case? maybe? hmmm#maybe that AND his dad just died or he broke up with someone so he wants to make a change and start fresh...#lmao ty for bringing this up again anon and making me think more about it#at the very least i now have more weird beejhawk ideas

decided to sit through taylor's album while i do rly boring work today and i'm just. perplexed. like for the most part it all sounds the same and she sounds fucking bored and it's very "boo hoo i'm taylor swift" but then she'll drop these lyrics that make me actually laugh out loud because they're so absurd. i'd say that she needs a five year break from songwriting at the very minimum because there's no way this is sustainable but it's sustainable because she's taylor swift and she could snore into the microphone for an hour straight and ppl would be like omg fireeee she's in her sleepy era 😴🌛🛌
#actually i'd listen to a tswift snoring album because at least it'd be fucking different. snorkkkmimimi. 🔥#i'm just perplexed lol...... i'm having fun writing notes on each song because most of them are just lyrics that made me laugh#but i rly do not understand the appeal it feels very much like she just copy-pasted the same song thirty times. like she sounds bored#which is actually why some of these lyrics are SOOO funny so me because she delivers them in this like. very nonchalant tone.#i'm only a third of the way through but idk. not very hopeful the rest will be any different or better aghksa#🛹

you fucking cowards
#i'm just so sick of this#this woman could sneeze onto some vinyl and rolling stone would give it five stars#is it that hard to respect her as a songwriter and still say ''this wasn't her best work''?#are you incapable of being neutral enough to do your fucking job and realize that the emperor is naked??#like she's released so much music!! It's okay to say that some of it kinda sucks#but all you guys care about is clean production and predictable sounds#props to NME and the AV Club for pointing out how boring the album is#the only thing inventive about it was the lyrics#which although I enjoyed them they land maybe 10% of the time at best#jello TS

Just saw a professional, full length skirt with normal ass belt loops at the top like any pair of slacks would have and I was immediately overcome with gender euphoria and also what I can only describe as textile lust
#like yeah it’s in boring gray so like. still not for a technicolor autist like me#but I’ve never seen a piece of business attire that I actually felt could fit me????#also because it’s so easily fat friendly which SO many other business clothes aren’t#it’s not really fancy enough for my friends wedding but I do need it#non binary#nonbinary fashion#nonbinary#trans#also I emailed two men’s bespoke suit makers to see if they can make me a waistcoat for the wedding#cuz if not I’ve gotta really scramble to find something#I have the skills to make my own skirt but I don’t want to fuck around with a waistcoat#but I also really don’t want to wear a dress to this thing I already know I’ll be misgendered at the whole time#but if I’m gonna be misgendered I might as well wear clothes that confuse#I’m tempted by a full suit but pants still sound so uncomfortable

HOW am I supposed to fit "doesn't actually like musicals" into the existing Swan lore. It's too early in the morning for this
oh i can answer this! when i say i "don't like musicals" i mean it in the same sense that people who have written hundreds of thousands of words of star wars fanfic say "i hate star wars and i wish it was good" or when people who can pinpoint down to the run, issue, page number, panel, and speech bubble where you should start reading their favorite comic say "one day i'm going to burn down dc headquarters and i'm not joking." hope this helps!
#chatter#this makes it sound like i actually know shit about musicals. that is not true either.#in reality ''doesn't actually like musicals'' mostly just means ''i am a filthy modern broadway casual who can't even rattle off#all the major works of sondheim from memory''#which i acknowledge is embarrassing. i'm WORKING on a piece from sunday in the park with george okay i'm TRYING to get cultured#but it's HARD because there's lots of ACCIDENTALS and i'm a SOPRANO and i CAN'T READ.#also in a very real way sometimes people write musicals that are not good and i think they shouldn't do that.#i think people should write good and not bad and i also think people should stop fucking putting jukebox musicals on bway.#i know they move ticket sales (?) but i think they are lazy and boring and i don't like them.#this also applies to moulin rouge the musical with all due respect to karen olivo. write a fucking original song.#(i say ''write a fucking original song'' but then pasek & paul are like ''hey'' and i'm like NOT FUCKING LIKE THAT so.)
