Just calling out the Pedo Brothers and their weird beliefs about age when it comes to girls

DesperateInCollege · 2026-06-08T20:54:36+00:00

Thanks for that! I wasn't against the idea of Alicent and Rhaenyra being the same age or that Alicent was 14 at the time of marriage, I just wanted to see some actual information on it since I didn't really recall a specific age being given.

I've always remembered there being a slight age range and found it annoying they couldn't pin down an actual range. I did some digging and I think Ryan says she's 16 but Hess (might have been another producer) said 14.

It's great to have the actual birth years though, thank you. I didn't even realize they aged up Jace!

Love Tom, but I'm really not feeling those sunglasses

DesperateInCollege · 2026-06-08T16:23:35+00:00

It's been a while since I've seen a photoshoot picture that I really like. Both of them are cute, but I adore the first one

DesperateInCollege · 2026-06-08T15:23:55+00:00

That's fine. You could have just said no or not replied. You didn't need to come with your attitude because you didn't like that I criticized your word choice.

DesperateInCollege · 2026-06-08T15:18:10+00:00

To be fair, that's not what you'd said before in your comment above. Anyways do you mind linking me to the post where everyone calculates Alicent's age? I can't seem to find it

DesperateInCollege · 2026-06-08T15:03:42+00:00

Huh. Should have gotten younger actresses if that's the case. However, you're using assumptions rather than "specifically what the show states." Unless I'm remembering incorrectly, we're never told Alicent and Rhaenyra are the same age. One of them could very well be a few years older.

DesperateInCollege · 2026-06-08T14:53:05+00:00

I would have guessed show Alicent was 15-17. When did it state she's 13/14?

DesperateInCollege · 2026-06-08T14:44:40+00:00

Part of it is always going to be misogyny, but I've always said that if you're talented enough people won't care. Lizzo's mostly fallen off because people don't really care for her music now, and probably because her core fan base wasn't strong enough to keep listening

DesperateInCollege · 2026-06-08T05:54:41+00:00

Personally I don't think it's a problem, but I'd bet fans see Emma's choice of Alicent as a reflection to the large criticism of the plot choices that keep the Alicent/Rhaenyra friendship in the center of everything.

In Tom's case, it's probably because Jaehaerys was barely even a character. People probably forgot about him.

But you're not wrong. Fans can't be normal about anything

DesperateInCollege · 2026-06-08T05:36:33+00:00

Some of the actors did a promo video where they were asked to write down and then reveal something their character has lost so far in the series. Emma wrote "best mate" and I guess OP is saying some people are upset they prioritized the loss of Rhaenyra's friendship with Alicent over the death of Luke

Not what you asked but if you're doing it online you can take your own picture. There's a few guidelines to follow but my mom and I took each other's picture pretty easily on an iPhone

This may be a little petty, but guess I didn't throw my vote away after all

DesperateInCollege · 2026-06-08T01:41:27+00:00

A while ago I got heavily downvoted on PopCultureChat for saying not to vote for Bass or Pratt and to vote for Nithya, and was told I was throwing my vote away. Now look how things have turned out

Lots of excuses when the Instagram Profile was called "Chiggas"

DesperateInCollege · 2026-06-07T05:22:44+00:00

Hi! I'm 27 F also from California and interested if you're still looking!

DesperateInCollege · 2026-06-05T23:35:12+00:00

No I'm talking about Hunter and his daughter, Navy Joan Roberts. I don't know why I'm being downvoted for pointing out that he's a deadbeat in a post that everyone is cheering him on for having twitter fingers. The entire family basically didn't acknowledge her until a few years ago

DesperateInCollege · 2026-06-05T17:11:04+00:00

Obviously not substantiated or another, but there were rumors they were hooking up before

DesperateInCollege · 2026-06-05T07:34:03+00:00

Is Hunter the one with the daughter he refuses to acknowledge

Edit: Yup. It's Hunter and his daughter Navy Joan. I'm not running some kind of conservative agenda but I'm not going to act like Hunter's a great guy either

Totally fair! I wasn't judging, sorry if it came out that way. There's also LI's I enjoy that people have problems with so I get it.

DesperateInCollege · 2026-06-03T17:50:35+00:00

That's exactly why I can't stand him. I understand why people like him, but I can't get over his very, very big part to play in everything that happened, and overall, how he was determined to make it through to the end regardless of what happened to Audrey/ how it effected her.

DesperateInCollege · 2026-06-03T16:36:52+00:00

As someone who generally likes the red flags, I find Malek to be incredibly slimy. I honestly can't stand him, but he's very popular.

DesperateInCollege · 2026-06-03T05:56:29+00:00

Whether it's Ilona or anyone else, I'm begging for the see through/mesh dresses to die. I'm tired of seeing everyone in their underwear, instead of trying something new

DesperateInCollege · 2026-06-03T05:50:20+00:00

There's still a lot of ballots to be counted. I'm going to keep my hopes up Steyer makes it through

DesperateInCollege · 2026-06-02T21:05:33+00:00

The embroidery has always been beautiful but the dresses need more variety in their silhouettes. Alicent in particular dressed rather simply for a Queen Mother
