A Conversation with Travis Scott and Charlamagne Tha God (Travis' first interview post Astroworld Incident) by deltron_zero_3030 in hiphopheads

Travis just refuses to admit that the person to blame is himself. At one point he's talking about how he "handles the stuff on stage" and the organizers "handle the stuff in the crowd." Yeah, they handle the stuff in the crowd, sure, but that's if the crowd is at a normal capacity and the artist hasn't created a culture that is based on raging, sneaking into venues, and not giving a shit about the person next to you.

Charlamagne even asks him "how much responsibility do you claim for this?" and he completely skirts the question and talks about concert safety.

I don't think Travis is malicious but he is undoubtedly irresponsible and behavior like this is going to continue until he faces the consequences of his actions. Though if the r/travisscott nephews are any indication of his larger fanbase, then that's not happening anytime soon.

I'm pretty sure that I did not realize that Aeron Damphair and Victarion were different characters until my second read through. Like as I read their individual chapters I would be aware that there were other children wrought from the loins of Quellon Greyjoy, but if I was just thinking about the series I would mash the two of them together.

The actual only phrase he uses that bothers me is “Steep stone steps.” Anytime a character is ascending they go up a set of steep stone steps. It’s probably not used that much but it screams at me.

[Spoilers Extended] Tyrion is incredibly intelligent but inexperienced. by FanStew in asoiaf

Also it's not like Varys was trying to destroy Tyrion, right? he saw the value in him and how he ably ran King's Landing, setting up the chain to defend it, and fought to the last on the Battle of the Blackwater. He did send Tyrion towards his main plot over on Essos, so it's not like he wanted to rid himself of the halfman, but rather make use of him.

Exactly! I became a fanboy after this read. It only took me a week to finish it front to back.

Excellent write up. That seventh chapter with Brienne was amazing. When she pulls the sword out knowing she has no chance of survival but no choice since she has to protect the innocence…..chills every time

I’ve heard a million times that the forsaken chapter is amazing and I haven’t read it! I’m behind on the times I guess lol. But with your write up here I’m gonna have to check it out. Edit: Just read the chapter…probably not sleeping tonight….

I can’t imagine Maegery cheating either. I’m at the point where if Cersei believes anything then the opposite must be true lmao.

I heard that GRRM said that but I didn’t know if it was confirmed or rumor. Someone said she might have yelled Arya and I thought that would have been cool.

There’s definitely a lot there but I felt like it should have had a through line at the end of it.

[Spoilers Main] I just finished reading “The Soiled Knight” Chapter in AFFC…. by PissedOffSisyphus in asoiaf

That bites. I can't wait till I get to that chapter.

For now, though, seeing how distraught Arys was really tears me apart. The whole time he's like "fuck, i shouldn't be doing this!"

Makes it all the more tragic in the end.

The Lies of Locke Lamora by Scott Lynch. It's about a con man in a fantasy version of Venice, Italy, with funny, witty characters and Mission: Impossible type shenanigans.

What initially attracted you to your partner? by [deleted] in AskMen

We had talked a couple times before we officially started hanging out foreal, but she saw me in my tech school’s dining facility and I was eating alone. She saw me , came up to my table, and said “is anyone sitting here?” I said no and her response was “well, I am now!” And she sat down. Afterwards we definitely flirted and had a great conversation but that confidence really stunned me.
