I think Cersei cares quite a bit.

Jaime's indifference has precedence, though. He's never been invested in his own children. He was so distraught about his son's death that he fucked his sister on his corpse.
I don't know, his last moments with Myrcella seemed to show he cared for her quite a bit.
You should be more upset with that scene, then. Because it's contrary to his entire character. Even in the books, Jaime has long ago given his children to Robert. His sole purpose, his only love, is Cersei. He doesn't care about the kids. He only cares about her.
Well,
Spoiler: show
in the books he's pretty much fallen out of love with Cersei by the time he sets off for the Riverlands.
But yeah, I hate pretty much everything the show has done with Jaime the past few seasons.
No he hasn't.
yes he has

You'd react differently? This is Obama's America, folks; the wussification of an entire generation.
Proven even further by the fact that ST said "wussification" instead of "pussification."

Thanks Obama!

Part of me really thinks it would be amazing if ST is making up the most ridiculous theories he can and chalking them up to "book readers"

There's a theory amongst book readers that Dany will disassemble the Greyjoy ships and build platforms that her dragons can use to carry people across the Narrow Sea.

There's a theory amongst show watchers that Septon Ray's name is an homage to the original Ghostbusters and that the show runners threw it in there because of how much they hate the idea of an all-female remake.

I was just about to talk about how much worse my night was now that Pitch Perfect is over. But then ST posted. And everything is amazing again.

There's a theory amongst book readers that the paste given to Bran by the Children of the Forest isn't made of Jojen but is, in fact, Bloodraven's secret-family-recipe guacamole.

every time a trailer for a movie comes on my dad will blurt out how "they" say it's really good, regardless of how horrible the movie is. to this day, i've never been able to figure out just who "they" is.

what's your criterion for using "amongst" vs. among?

Also the "Avocados from Mexico" theme exists in the ASOIF universe, but it's "Avocados from Highgarden" (sung to the same tune).

I'm going back and forth so Argo will have the chance to correct me and feel good about himself.
