Thoughts on the final Game of Thrones - SPOILERS

SPOILERS

These are pretty much the notes I took during the final episode. I only deleted ones where they then got answered (e.g. So is Bronn the head of Highgarden?).
  1. Tyrion can't have nice things.
  2. Arya didn't just leave King's Landing? Okay.
  3. Where did we get a big Targaryen banner? And how did we put it up?
  4. Dany sure can project her voice.
  5. Dany sure sounded like a cult leader when she referred to what she'd done to King's Landing as 'liberation.'
  6. I really thought Tyrion was going to push Dany down the stairs
  7. I alughed out loud when Arya suddenly appeared next to Jon..
  8. Was Jon seriously like "But you were with her until she massacred a city!"?
  9. Man, the women Jon sleeps with sure don't live long.
  10. Drogon gave me Simba vibes.
  11. So...how did they catch Jon? Like I'm not saying it's impossible. But did people see Dany's body? How did they know she was dead? Like it's not that hard to explain blood in King's Landing at this point. And did he just keep standing there?
  12. Oh so Edmund still exists. Cool. Does he actually have a kid? Oh, we're not gonna answer that? Okay.
  13. Okay, are we pretending that is Robin?
  14. Hahahahaha yeah poor people voting is the same as dogs voting, amirite? [Boy was this a disappointing moment in the show]
  15. Why didn't Yara try Sansa's move? Don't the Iron Islands want to be free?
  16. What does the Night's Watch even do now? No more white walkers and the wildlings seem chill. Sooo....
  17. Also, if the Night's Watch is a thing...why does Sam get to be free of his vows?
  18. Sooo the unsullied are just leaving? Are the dothraki too? Anyone staying?
  19. Arya is just leaving too I guess. And I love how Sansa does not have a reaction. Thanks, writers. That makes sense.
  20. Please tell me I missed Jaime getting credit for knighting the first woman.
  21. Ah so Pod is a night now.
  22. Okay that honeycomb and jackass story repeat mention did not do what I think the writers wanted it to. For me, it just felt awkward and disconnected in an irrelevant way.
  23. Where was my Tormund hug?
  24. Aw that little plant is gonna get trampled by all those wildlings.
  25. So...did Jon just leave the Night's Watch? I don't quite get it.

Starting my parental journey, part 2

You can read part 1 here . Yesterday I began the next step of my parental journey. Ironically, it was starting birth control. This medicine helps prepare my ovaries for the egg retrieval process. It was weird taking the pill to prepare for my fertility journey because you typically think of the pill as ensuring you don't get pregnant. Obviously, I'm not getting pregnant now, but I am getting ready for that eventual possibility. There have also been various bureaucratic issues that I've been dealing with. Mostly insurance stuff (as I'm sure comes as no surprise). But, thanks to a new benefit at work that started 1/1/24, my journey will be (mostly) covered. While, again, there were some bureaucratic hurdles that I had to overcome in order for this to all work out, I am immensely glad that it did work out. I am nervous though. In part I'm nervous about a lot of the practicalities of this step in my journey. For instance, I will have to inject myself with various medica...

15 ways to support me on my parental journey

I posted yesterday and in August, 2023 about starting my parental journey. If you're wondering how you can support me, here are some ideas I have at the moment (though these may change and also don't feel pressured to do any of these things). Check in via text or DM so I can respond at my leisure (but please don't be insulted if I take a long time to respond) Help with arranging food for me (I know that when I get overwhelmed, I often have really awful eating habits) Offer to help with apartment chores (I may turn you down, but the offer will mean a lot) Walk Hoban (I realize only some people can do this, but the relief of lightening the responsibility of Hoban will likely be welcome) Be understanding if I have to cancel plans (I hope to still be somewhat social during this time, but I cannot guarantee how I'm going to feel) Drive me to appointments (I have the retrieval itself covered, but I have other appointments that will happen leading up to it so if you have the...
