A very important message for you all ❤️‍🩹 I know too well how hard it is to really believe this. And how your mind tricks you into thinking that you are worthless. Good news! It’s not true, not even for a second. Ohh this one should be my personal mantra 😭 #affirmations #ofmd

 Kristian Nairn (part 1)

Kristian was on the Six O'Clock show talking about Hodor's Death in Game of Thrones.

(Source: https://www.instagram.com/p/DFDjhPsSLiz/)

Video description & transcription (too long for alt text, sorry!):
A TV interview with Kristian Nairn about the death of his Game of Thrones character Hodor.
The video starts with a short snippet that is repeated about a minute in. Then host 1 asks: ‘Now, with a show like Game of Thrones, obviously, you never know when your character is going to be written off, and obviously, they’re always written off in the most dramatic and sometimes horrendous ways. Tell us, where were you when you found out about Hodor’s exit?’
Kristian: ‘Ahh, we almost had this, like, lottery system every year, of who would survive, like we’d flip through the script and see if we were gonna make it. And I just remember I was sat in the living room and I got a phone call from Finn Jones, who played the Knight of Flowers, he got the script a day before me and he just said, Kristian, have you read the script? And I said to him, I know what that means! I know what that means. And he just said, you’re gonna love it, you’re gonna love your death. Which is a weird thing to say. (laughs) But yeah, I read it, I was happy, I got the phonecall – there’s a phonecall of doom you get from David & Dan, who were the showrunners – and it’s like a bell tolling when that phonecall happens, and it came 2 days later.’
Host 2: ‘And we have to ask you, did you enjoy your death?’
Kristian: ‘Erm, yeah, I’d give it a solid 9 out of 10, yeah.’ (laughs)
Host 1: ‘Yeah, it’s memorable, memorable.’
Host 2: ‘Fans were devastated when your character left the show. Why, do you think, Hodor was loved by so many people that watched the show? What was it about the character you played that had such a lasting impact on people?’
Kristian: ‘Well, if you watch the show, you’ll see in Westeros, there aren’t very many nice people, and there’s a lot of agendas, a lot of cruelty and a lot of, lot of crazy stuff happening. And Hodor was kind of… a little bit of comic relief sometimes. He was a nice guy!’

💌 Love Notes

Hey lovelies. This week has been hell. I know it has. I hope you know though that for every asshole out there who is unkind to you or wants to take away your rights - you have a hell of a lot more of us who love you dearly and recognize the beauty and the wonder in you. 

I know it's easy to fall into despair.. and it's good to feel the feelings to help heal them, but don't fall too far down the rabbit hole okay? 

You are loved. Period.

You are worthy of love. Period.

You are valid. Period.

Shine brighter than their hate. 

Shine brighter than their ignorance.

You are a force to be reckoned with. 

Be safe, and reach out when you are in trouble or unsure. 

There is no shame in getting help - and most of all, there is no shame in being you, okay?

None. 

We will persevere. Love you crew.
