Fun Fact
BuzzFeed published a report claiming that Tumblr was utilized as a distribution channel for Russian agents to influence American voting habits during the 2016 presidential election in Feb 2018.
Only a southern would have come up with the true and right idea that the Riverland are just Appalachia. Ned and cats sham of a wedding (at the start! Marrying for an army etc) is thematically coherent to all those brother going to the train station with shotguns to make sure the new brother in law made it to the chapel on time (what my great uncles did to my great grandfather when he got my greatgrandma pregnant)
the riverlands are this sprawling yet isolated liminal space where everything happens yet nothing ever seems to really change or move forward in time, 80 year old interpersonal grudges may as well be from yesterday, everyone is obsessed with following and/or breaking a complex unspoken set of social rules revolving around putting on a good face and treating guests right, people deride it and yet once they’re there can never seem to truly leave or stop themselves from being drawn back in, and where a core pillar of society is Going Down To The River and i’m supposed to NOT recognize it as the South??? it is to ME
HOUSE TULLY is a noble house founded by First Men during the Age of Heroes. Their seat is Riverrun, on the Riverlands of Westeros. The Tully heir is to be named Lord or Lady of Riverrun, as well as Lord or Lady Paramount of the Trident. Their sigil is a leaping silver trout. The Tully family words are “Family, Duty, Honor”.

Lyanna Stark is one of my favourite character from Asoiaf…it’s hard to explain but I love like a small scale Gotham villain loves his fridged wife and children. I understand her more than anyone and I hope to learn more about her in twow but I also want her to be left alone PLEASE 🙏🏾
Match Review: Manchester United Women 3-1 Leicester City Women
3 wins in 3 from the United ladies in the Conti Cup, and the Reds keep marching on.
It's never an easy tie against Leicester City, but United kept up their hot streak of form to make it a comfortable win in the end.
First half goals from Lucia Garcia and Lisa Naalsund had United comfortable, but a dangerous pass from keeper Phallon Tullis-Joyce out to captain Katie Zelem saw the England international pressed into a bad touch and robbed of the ball by Aileen Whelan, whose lobbed finish got the Foxes back in the game.
United focused up in the second half and Brazilian wonder Geyse was brought down in the box after some darting wide play into the box, with captain Zelem atoning for the earlier mistake by coolly finishing the subsequent penalty.
Zelem could have had two, with another penalty later on in the half, but the crossbar and goalie Leitzig stopped her effort and the rebound from Melvine Malard.
United's final game is away to Manchester City Women at the Joie Stadium on Wednesday 24th January. Top spot will guarantee the girls a bye to the Quarter Finals with the other group winners and seeded Chelsea (due to their Champions League involvement) and then the final two spots will be given to the best group runners-up.
But who will be in the QFs?
In Group A, Aston Villa are all but confirmed, and Sunderland are a decent second place. Durham are in third place tied on points with Sunderland but lack goal difference. They need Villa to absolutely snot the Black Cats to sneak into 2nd and even then, that'll probably be too weak to qualify vs the other groups. Alternatively, Sunderland could cause an upset and win and steal top spot, leaving Villa a strong candidate for the second place route in.
Group B is our lot. United just need a draw to stay top and guarantee our place. City need a win for top. City only need a draw to bag second though, whilst Leicester need to beat Everton and United to beat City. City's points are also good enough that second probably gets them into the quarters.
To keep things interesting Group C is wide open, with Palace vs London City and Watford vs Lewes both able to see any of the sides progress.
Group D is led by Arsenal, with a final game against Reading that should be a formality. Spurs though, they take on Southampton - both of whom are vying for first and second spots...
The final group, Group E, is topped by Brighton and Hove Albion. Charlton are second, and the pair face off to finish, while West Ham have an easier game (on paper) against last place Birmingham City - though maybe they fight for pride and cause an upset...
All we do know is that it will be an exciting January for women's football fans!

Why do we refer to Alicent as a Hightower? Once she's married, didn't she become a Targaryen? Shouldn't she be called Alicent Targaryen ?
Okay so this is the consequence of the fact that none of the nobility or royalty in Westeros have actual last names the way that we understand them. Colloquially, nobles and royalty are often referred to as [first name] + [House name] (Alicent Hightower, Rhaenyra Targaryen, etc.) which makes it seem like the House names are last names. But they’re not actually, they’re titles. Kind of like how none of the British royal family have last names, just first names. And titles behave a bit differently from legal last names. Married women have equal claim to the House they were born into and the House they married into, and so can refer to themselves as either or. And they certainly don't seem to HAVE to give up their maiden name, no matter who they marry.
It’s entirely possible for people to claim multiple Houses in formal occasions. For example, Tommen Baratheon is referred to as “Tommen of Houses Baratheon and Lannister” during his coronation. But colloquially people only use one at a time. Married women usually have a preference for one or the other. There are examples galore of both options here. Olenna Tyrell and Lisa Arryn always go by their married names; Sansa Stark, Rhaenys Targaryen, and Cersei Lannister all go by their maiden names. Some women might use the two interchangeably, depending on their circumstances: Catelyn might refer to herself as Catelyn Tully while in the Riverlands, but Catelyn Stark while in the North.
Whether the married or maiden name is used comes down to a variety of factors, such as the statuses of the two Houses, the women’s sentiments towards the two Houses, and how deeply the women assimilate into the culture/family of their married House. When a woman is colloquially referred to by her maiden name, it is usually meant to reflect that she is perceived as rejecting the family she married into in favor of her original family. Alicent holds more closely to things associated with the Hightowers, such as the Faith of the Seven, and is largely derided by Team Black for being an “outsider” within House Targaryen. But this is only the case for informal labels.
Now, this flexibility does not extend to the formal titles of these women. When using their formal titles, they must use their married name. This is because there is only one “Lady X” at any given time, and it is a title reserved for the wife of the corresponding “Lord X.” This is true for men as well, by the way: Laenor was never “Lord Velaryon” because Corlys was “Lord Velaryon,” and only one person can hold the title at a time. So for example, Alicent wouldn’t be called “Lady Hightower,” even if she wasn’t married to a King, because the only Lady Hightower is the wife of Lord Ormund Hightower (who is also the only Lord Hightower). This is also why Rhaenys Targaryen is referred to as Lady Velaryon and never as Lady Targaryen.
As for Alicent, she's a bit unique because she married into the royal family in particular. Since royalty needs to feel important, they get their own rules that are a bit different from the rest of the nobility. The only ones with a claim to the name Targaryen are those born to a man with that name. The title of Queen is never attached to a specific House. Alicent’s formal title isn’t “Queen Targaryen,” nor is it “Queen Hightower,” it is simply “Queen Alicent.” But even if she'd married a Lord, she could very well still be known by the name Hightower.

What if Hoster Tully decided that it's better for Lisa to quick-marry Petyr when she got pregnant, rather than his canonical decision?
From what we know of Hoster Tully, there is no way he'd ever do this. He wanted status for himself and his daughters, and Littlefinger did not fit the bill.
Remember also that Lysa's pregnancy appears to have come after that mess with Brandon, after Littlefinger was sent away. For trying to blow up Hoster's plans to marry off Catelyn. As far as Hoster's concerned (but not the readers, who know the situation was Quite Different), Littlefinger abused Hoster's trust and hospitality by sleeping with Lysa and sabotaging his plans for Catelyn. He's not rewarding that either.
Cole Sprouse And Kathryn Newton To Star In Diablo Cody-Scripted ‘Lisa Frankenstein’ For Focus Features (via Deadline)

Best known for her breakout role in HBO’s Big Little Lies, Newton is set to make her MCU debut in Marvel’s Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania. She was most recently seen in the Universal and Blumhouse horror comedy Freaky opposite Vince Vaughn.
The film marks Williams’ feature-length directorial debut.
