Oh, I wish those council guys would let me have an hour alone in the room with her, if I was larger and had grenades.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

Did not like that at all. My biggest issue with the Ep.

I didn't know who he was so I was a little weirded out by how much focus he was pulling, like it was foreshadowing for him to like try to kidnap Arya or is actually a Faceless Man.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

Also, I like Ed Sheeran well enough, but seeing him in the last Arya scene kind of jarred me. It was distracting.

which one was he? clearly I have no idea who he is.

Our wings are not tired.

Now I feel bad about Ed Sheeran. I find him adorkable and apparently it was a surprise treat from the powers that be for Maisie Williams because she is a big fan. But fans being meanyhead bullies have abused him over the cameo appearance. Driving him to delete his Twitter account (not for the first time)

Anyway, backstory here in one of the few articles that doesn't immediately blast audio at you. [link]

Uh, didn't Sheeran quit Twitter a couple of weeks ago? It seems he's a flouncer-offer. [link]

Apparently. It has to be a downside of celebrity to endure reading hate twitter. One of the late night hosts does the hate mail segment that includes horrible stuff people can say. I don't know which is worse, being hateful to loved ones or strangers. Both suck.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Ok, this makes me less cranky about it. I just really REALLY hate "Shape of You" and seeing his face gets it stuck in my head.

I don't mind his songs, but whenever I see him I get the impression that he would be surrounded by a cloud of yeasty feet odor.

Jamie Foxx was on the most recent episode of Graham Norton telling the story of when Ed Sheeran ended up living on his couch for weeks. He'd come to Hollywood to try to make it with his music, then someone steered him to Jamie Foxx, who I gather makes it a practice to try to help young up-and-coming musicians. So he told Ed, let's see what you've got, and took him to an event somewhere that Foxx described described as a black event. He asked the organisers to put Ed on and they said wow I don't know man he doesn't fit in here, and he said com'mon, give him a try. And he said in 12 minutes, Ed had gotten a standing ovation. And then he stayed at Fox's house for a couple of months. Between that story and I guess the cover story in Rolling Stone, I'm starting to like Ed Sheeran. He seems pretty grounded and hard-working, sword scar from playing at knighting, and game of Thrones Cameo notwithstanding.

Arya is a mass murderer now, y'all. I'm still wrapping my head around that because it's awesome! Sansa has turned into something fearsome and glorious. I'm still wrapping my head around that because it's awesome. Lady Lyanna Mormont is nothing to fuck with (hat tip: Wu Tang Clan). I had already wrapped my head around that long ago but it's still awesome. Brienne of Tarh beating up on boys will never get old.

In short, women of the North for the win!

Next week: Lady Olenna meets Dany and that will be spectacular!
