.@DaisyEdgarJones: “I’m a big reader, and I know that feeling when you watch something like, ‘Huh. It’s not how I expected it.’”

.@DaisyEdgarJones on being an only child: “You learn how to behave around adults from an early age. Because you’re not sat at the kids table, you’re sat with the adults, being quiet and listening.”
bit.ly/DaisyEdgarJone… Image
.@DaisyEdgarJones on social situations: “I’m so concerned about how the other person is experiencing it that I’m not actually experiencing it myself.”
bit.ly/DaisyEdgarJone… Image
.@DaisyEdgarJones: “The trick is not worrying – which I find so hard – if people like you or not. You’re always, always looking for the bad comment. We’re just wired that way.”
bit.ly/DaisyEdgarJone… Image
.@DaisyEdgarJones on Fresh: “It was on the call sheet as ‘Noa chomps Steve’s dick. They used chopped-up peach and fruit for the flesh that I spit up.”
bit.ly/DaisyEdgarJone… Image
.@DaisyEdgarJones: “[Women] live with an awareness of threat that is just so ingrained and normal that you don’t even clock it.”
bit.ly/DaisyEdgarJone… Image
.@DaisyEdgarJones: “It’s the risk factor of dating as a woman: worrying about wanting to be open to meeting someone new, but also being so aware of the risks involved in.”
bit.ly/DaisyEdgarJone… Image
.@DaisyEdgarJones: “I’m just really self-critical, and it’s boring! I’m trying not to be that way. When do you get to the stage of just being like, ‘It is what it is’? When do you get to that point?”
bit.ly/DaisyEdgarJone… Image
.@DaisyEdgarJones: “I am drawn to watching relationships play out on screen and the dynamic. How different we can be with different people.”

Regardless of who you are in Westeros, you're probably going to have a bad time. In the world of @GameOfThrones — and spin-off @HouseOfDragon — violence and brutality come in equal opportunity.
That said, there are certain demographics who get the brunt of it. This is a fantasy series inspired by the European Dark Ages, after all: gender is strictly binary, women kept as sexual objects or political weapons, bodies exchanged to shore up the bonds of regal houses.
The chess pieces are steadily aligning in this new Game of Thrones, but the latest episode, “We Light the Way,” chucks a new spanner in the works.

Stood among strangers in search of history, I had a strange epiphany, writes @PennyRed.
trib.al/qKnYHSo
"It's Friday night, the Queen is dead, and I'm about to do something ludicrous for money. At least, I'm telling people it's for money, texting my friends explanations as I arrive at Southwark Park to join what is already being called the longest queue in history."
"“It sounds a bit excessive,” says a friend I once saw snort a whole bag of unidentified powder they found in a club toilet. “Why would you walk all night just to look at a box?” The truth is I’m not here for the Queen; I’m here for the Queue."

Have a pair of eyes ever conveyed such depths of eternal sadness as the ones on Ryan Gosling's face?

gq-magazine.co.uk/culture/articl…
The Ides of March (2011)
The Ides of March is Gosling eschewing being an outwardly furious bro and instead opting for a more quietly raging sociopath, all complete with a sharp suit.

First Man (2018)
Sad on Earth, sad in space. Ryan Gosling's take on Neil Armstrong is not the first that comes to mind when we think of his roster of brooders, but the emotional angst he brings to zero gravity life cannot be ignored.
