My Life as an ENTP (with anxiety out the wahzoo)

My name: Liz

My Type: ENTP

Enneagram: 6w7 (I think)

Extroverted Intuition (Ne):

One idea or image conjures a multitude of related ones instantaneously. I love playing with ideas and finding unusual or unexpected connections. I’ve always been respected for my ability to improvise or recognize a hidden connection, especially in academic writing. I’m interested in an an absolute TON of things, and it’s difficult to keep myself focused on one or two, which also makes me quite good at self-sabotage when it comes to the job market. As a child this was especially evident…I was totally into the idea of being both a meteorologist and a ballet dancer at the same time. Because why not?

Sand Snakes {1/8} : Tyene Sand

“Despite the variances in their birthmothers and appearances, they are all said to have their father’s eyes." 

Daughter of a septa. Tyene is closest of all the Sand Snakes to her cousin Arianne. She is known to have skills in herbcraft and poison, and is regarded as treacherous, while maintaining a sweet and pious persona. She is fair, blue-eyed and blonde.

D&D is first and foremost a co-operative game and the enjoyment and comfort of fellow players takes precedence over whatever beautiful arc you have in your mind. If you want complete control of the narrative, write a novel.

Rant Time:

Okay, so I have seen some posts circling around Tumblr defending white-washed fancasts of the Sand Snakes, particularly Nymeria and Tyene.  They try and justify the white-washing by saying that Nymeria is described as having “milk-pale skin” and Tyene as having green eyes and blond hair.  First of all, George RR Martin has said that Nymeria looks like Janina Gavankar:

She is most definitely not a white woman, and is 100x hotter than Gemma fucking Arterton wearing brownface in the Prince of Persia.  .  Fancasting a white person to play a mixed character erases part of their identity, and that shit is fucking racist.  A lot of mixed-race people can be described as having milk-pale skin, but that does not make them white.  Case in point:

All of these people have milk-pale skin and are mixed, not white.  Similarly, having blond hair and/or blue or green eyes does not automatically mean a character is white:

A large part of Tyene’s identity comes from being the daughter of a Dornishman.  She should be played by a mixed actress in order to reflect that.  I am fine with a white-passing mixed woman playing Tyene, but Gemma Arterton, Jennifer Lawrence, and Katie McGrath are not mixed and are therefore inappropriate choices for Sand Snakes/Martell women.  

Seriously, stop using white actresses for these characters.  Literally every major character in the series outside of Dorne is white.  If you want to use Gemma Arterton, Jennifer Lawrence, or Katie McGrath in your fancasts so badly, use them for characters that aren’t from Dorne.  I think that all three of those actresses could work as Lyanna Stark, Asha Greyjoy (since so many people hate the actress on the show), or Val.  I also think Lawrence and McGrath could work as Mya Stone.  You should use women of color to represent the Sand Snakes/Martell women.  Please just fucking stop with the whitewashing.  

No snark, no smart assery, no douchebaggery today, just making sure you all know condoms are one time use only cuz this was a scary headline.
