Anonymous asked:

ironborn are so wild to me they turned toxic violent masculinity into a religion but also there is asha who somehow beat the system by being noble and also really good at murder very proud of her

visenyaism answered:

asha getting a hall pass for gender nonconformity because there was a chad shortage in the greyjoy family and she’s really really good at swag vs. theon catching 80 slurs per minute for the gender crime of being far away and also buying clothes instead of murdering randoms for their outfits is so genuinely fascinating i am their number one fan

A screenshot of a tweet by the official Royal Mint of the UK (@RoyalMintUK on Twitter) reading "You've heard of elf on the shelf. Now get ready for..." above a picture of the new British penny with an image of King Charles' head.ALT
A reply to the above tweet reading "Git on a bit?"ALT
Another reply to the above tweet reading "Not my king on a shilling?"ALT
Another reply reading "Brother of a child sex offender on legal tender?"ALT
Another reply reading: "Fash on the cash?"ALT
Another reply reading "Unelected head of state on coinage that is out of date"ALT

I'd like to formally thank the people of the UK and Ireland today for their rhyming prowess and forcing the Royal Mint to turn off replies to this tweet in RECORD time lmfao

And last but not least, the pièce de resistance that inspired about 90% of the hidden replies:

A quote retweet of the Royal Mint's original tweet from Derec Thompson reading "The Irish word for pound is pùnt and that is why you should have some diversity in your marketing teams."ALT

For anyone wondering, it was in fact meant to be "sovereign on a sovereign" 🤦

“I’m like, ‘Okay, she’s a doll. She’s a plastic doll. She doesn’t have organs. If she doesn’t have organs, she doesn’t have reproductive organs. If she doesn’t have reproductive organs, would she even feel sexual desire?’ No, I don’t think she could,” Robbie said. “She is sexualized. But she should never be sexy. People can project sex onto her. Yes, she can wear a short skirt, but because it’s fun and pink. Not because she wanted you to see her butt.”

Margot Robbie said Ace Barbie Rights with her whole chest.

the thing about judith is that fundamentally she is the most reasonable and level-headed person at canaan house. when you're stuck in a locked room serial murder mystery you really ought to, like, get help. at the very least let someone know that there is some serious murder-type shenanigans going on. not, you know, desperately try to achieve immortality before you can be murdered. like say what you will about her approach! but everyone else's approach was, crucially, also really bad.

I think there's an argument that she's almost Wrong Genre Savvy. She sees situations and responds like a sane person would, in ways that would be 100% correct in many stories. Unfortunately she's in a book about insane people.
