I have feelings about sidewalks.

That probably sounds weird, it's just a sidewalk. But you know how many city's do not keep up with the sidewalks properly. And the effect this has on mobility aid users. Do you know how hard it is to wheel yourself on a slightly sloped sidewalk? How about uneven bricks? The way it feels to roll over messing chunks in a sidewalk, or get your cane stuck in it.

#goes for towns too #n ok tice it the most in the ciry though #like i suffer the most whan i leave town #matain the sidewalks you bastards #cripple punk #crip punk #angry cripple #cripple posting #rant #mobility assistance #mobility aid #wheelchair user #disability

love that the first lesson jon had to learn at the wall from donal noye and the first lesson that tyrion had to learn in exile from penny were that they might be outcasts, yes, but that they were afforded luxuries due to the privilege of being highborn that they should never forget. that they are mistreated by their world but that they lived lives of comfort that the people around them could only imagine, and that two things may be true at once.

#tyrion lannister #jon snow #cripples and bastards and broken things #i would add dany to the trio but im not sure this is a lesson she had to learn per se #more like knew from the age of five

Just had the most psychotically evil realization right as I was about to fall asleep

#riza hawkeye #crowley #good omens #fullmetal alchemist #royai #Ineffable husbands #Emotionally repressed characters with crippling self loathing losing all will to live when they think the person they love is dead >>>#And cursing the being/group that took their love from them #“You BIIIIIITCH!!!” = “BASTARDS!!! ALL OF YOU!!!”

A Game of Thrones, Tyrion I

“There is nothing Lord Eddard can do for the boy in any case.”

“He could end his torment,” Jaime said. “I would, if it were my son. It would be a mercy.”

“I advise against putting that suggestion to Lord Eddard, sweet brother,” Tyrion said. “He would not take it kindly.”

“Even if the boy does live, he will be a cripple. Worse than a cripple. A grotesque. Give me a good clean death.”

Tyrion replied with a shrug that accentuated the twist of his shoulders.

“Speaking for the grotesques,” he said, “I beg to differ. Death is so terribly final, while life is full of possibilities.”

It’s about the second sons finishing what the elder sons couldn’t. It’s about the unlikely candidate rising from the uncertainty that comes with a young heir’s death and destruction. And look how that’s reflected with Jon and Bran, two characters who put a spin on king Arthur’s tale. Sure they’re going to be kings, but they weren’t meant to be. Not initially. Their older brothers were. Aegon was meant to be the king, he was meant to be the promised prince. Yet he was cut down before he could even live. Robb was the honorable king, the valiant hero destined to save House Stark. Yet, like Prince Aegon, he was cut down before his prime - a sixteen year old boy. In any other tale, Aegon would live and Robb would win. But not in this one. Aegon died, and Robb died after him. But their legacies and the hope they carried remained, to be picked up by their younger brothers - their unlikely heirs. Aegon can’t be the promised prince because he died, but Jon can. Robb can’t rebuild House Stark, but Bran will. Aegon and Robb were born to be destined for greatness, but Jon and Bran had greatness thrust upon them. And see how they rise to the occasion!

#my babiiiiiiies #I love them so much #my two blorbos #jon snow #bran stark #asoiaf #valyrianscrolls #grrm is such a huge fan of the unlikely successor #king Arthur isn’t who you thought it would be because as it turns out #King Arthur is the bastard brother #King Arthur is the crippled brother #the one who wasn’t meant to rule but the one who will do it anyway #it’s why I get so annoyed when people say Jon is boring because he’s a true to form fantasy protagonist #yeah whatever #ok he’s the archetypal fantasy protag but the subversion is HE WASNT MEANT TO BE #Aegon was meant to be the hero NOT Jon #but Aegon is dead so who else will carry the mantle if not his bastard brother?

just thinking about cripples, bastards, and broken things. these kids that, by all rights and logic, should've died long ago. bran crawling to his destiny with the weight of House Stark on his shoulders. dany dragging herself through the red waste, holding doreah and loving her til she's gone, and carrying a dynasty with her. jon climbing the wall and climbing his way up the ranks of the nights watch, climbing his way into friendships and family and not letting himself look back at the ones he left behind until he has to because it's arya.

bran looking back because looking forward is terrifying, so he looks for his family in anyway he can (through trees and dreams and wolves). he cries out for them, others answer. bran moving forward by any means necessary, 'our road is north,' because what else is there to do as a prince without a kingdom, a boy without a home. dany, 'if I look back I am lost', looking back at the trail of cripples, bastards, and broken things that have left everything they know to follow her, looking back at herself and hating what she sees, looking back and seeing herself in rhaegar's armor. dany looking forward and seeing chains and collars and saying 'I can do something about this, I will do something about this.'

jon 'kill the boy, let the man be born,' he kills the boy and is killed at 16. and dany never getting to be a girl, never had a choice between girlhood and whatever was needed/desired by others. she is sold at 13, mother at 14, widowed at 14, the last the last of her house at 14, conquerer at 15. bran falls, breaks, and flies at 7.
