I'm reading some viewer reactions to tonight's episode of Game of Thrones. A lot of sadness and anger. It's cool to see how George Martin's strong characterization and unpredictable plot twists translate to a wider audience. It's uncool to think how much could be accomplished if these people got as upset when actual human beings die. Hell, Ned's public execution is pretty much the fictional equivalent of what happened to Oscar Grant.
Fuck it. I'm going to bed before I start making a bunch of stream-of-consciousness Twitter-sized posts like these last two. Goodnight, America. Scary dark-skinned crimininal rapist who deserves to get shot in the back signing out.
