I often see that 'none of the Greens had an egg hatch for them'.
This is a reminder that none of the Green siblings are mentioned to have been given eggs. Jace, Luke and Joff were the first case of craddle eggs being declared to such an extent, followed by Viserys giving eggs to Jaehaera, Jaehaerys and MAelor. Until then, it was carefully considered who would be given eggs and the vast majority of riders had claimed riderless dragons.
Funnily enough, the only obvious reasons for Viserys to start giving eggs left and right is that dragons were seen as a

There are two aspects of Otto's show!characterisation that bother me A LOT in terms of adaptation.
1)When he confronted Larys about visiting Alicent's rooms, he allows his daughter to keep getting exploited as long as he too learns the information. She feels the need to put Image herself in a situation where she feels disgusted with herself because that's what she can offer and he takes advantage of her.
While one can argue that he also sent her to Viserys, in that society the potential of a marriage to the King, and to one who was a considerably peaceful

With the whole Emily drama, both sides are being ridiculous.
1)An actor's acting abilities being discussed in a tweet that doesn't mention them by their handle or name is anyone's prerrogative.

Even if it may be rooted on their dislike of the character the actor performs, it's disproportionate to call that hatred and bully the person who made the post.
Emily HAS received comments and hatred that was uncalled for, but this was not it and not every critical comment can be

I'm interested at the idea of Shelob being introduced before Adar's defeat.
As a reader, there are certain themes when she was introduced in The Two Towers that stuck out to me.
In the show we are introduced through Adar of the idea of the Orcs in a #RingsOfPower #LotR #RoP ImageImage different light. Adar, with his corrupt but still distinguishably elvish appearence, speaks of how the orcs were treated of Sauron and basically perceives them and himself as beings in shackles who didn't choose how to be and are living with what they were given.
While arguably

1)Branding Nettles a witch, which was the most common discrimination against women, commenting on Nettles' appearence as proof that she has no blood of the Dragon and supposedly could not have bonded with Sheepstealer without sorcery, while calling her a common thing just for kicks is Rhaenyra's approach. Mysaria told her that Nettles was with Daemon and may get witch child, thus making her jealous, but the ideological bull woven into the order of killing Nettles was all Rhaenyra.
2)And yet, unlike Rhaenyra,
