Ramsay is the new Joffrey.
He's worse. Joffrey was FUN to hate. With Ramsay, every time he makes an appearance, I just groan and yell "WE GET IT, HE'S THE EVILEST OF EVILONIA" then I flash forward through his scenes.
Sometimes a thing gets broke, can't be fixed.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
He's gotten surprisingly boring.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
Well, Joffrey had a ramp-up to super-awful, and a lot of similarly- or more- powerful characters around him (e.g. Tyrion slapping him) to help keep him in check. Ramsay started super-awful from the get-go and has cleared the field around himself, so, at this point, it's basically the writers throwing characters at him to be awful to until (probably late this season) someone is finally in a position to take him down. I don't think anyone actually thought Osha would be successful, and I don't think there will be any other compelling possibilities untill the Great Band of Northern Asskicking goes to Winterfell.

OMG, that may have been the most gut-wrenching and sad thing ever. I'm broken.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Both my DH and I were crying.

Is it wrong that I think the show is better now that they've gone past the books? I haven't read the books yet, but the women seem to have much more agency this season and things are actually happening.

I'm quite certain that some day, years from now, somewhere there's going to be an elevator packed with people, and somebody is going to come running up shouting, "Hold the door," and at least six people in that elevator are going to break down sobbing.
