oh i just know finishing sotr will make me cry...multiple times. i'm almost crying thinking about it please help
is it bad that i read the smutty gay fanfics before i actually read the book
Canโt believe Iโve resorted to reading smutty gay fanfics about characters in classic literature
my fav thing about sunrise on the reaping was when haymitch was like yeah caeser i'm a lone wolf ๐ i'm with the newcomers but i'm not WITH the newcomers, yknow? they call me a rascal. a rebel against the gamemasters. I scored a ONE and that is a THREAT. you do not want to mess with me ๐
cut to him with like 20 kids following him around like ducklings, him hiding in his t-shirt, him letting a bunny guide him to safety because it reminded him of his girlfriend, and him making nightlights out of potatoes.
I FOUND IT
which one of u was going to tell me that tea tastes different if u put it in hot water?
this might be controversial, but i had another conversation about the japanese with my friends actually. it was about japanese colonization of indonesia and their treatment of korea. also how they fucked over a lot of countries in ww2...one of them said something along the lines of "The US doesn't teach about negative Japanese history because we sent Japanese Americans to concentration camps and nuked their islands twice. So now we're only fed propoganda."
sunrise on the reaping raises an incredibly important ethical question: how many generations does it take to erase history, to the point of blind, unquestioning acceptance?
i fear the answer is far fewer than any of us are comfortable with.
nothing funnier to me than when AI does math wrong. like I get why it happens, it's a language model that's treating the numbers you feed it as words rather than integers and then giving you an answer based on how those words typically appear in a block of text instead of actually performing a calculation. but the one thing computers are genuinely incredible at. you fucked up a perfectly good calculator is what you did, look at it it's got hallucinations
sotr is my favorite book because it's so fun/interesting to see how everything connects together. like snow being highkey offended at lenore dove's name, katniss's parents making a cameo, etc. "oh he knows that because of lucy gray!" "oh everdeen?" "oh my god katniss's mom actually has a personality." plus there are so many lore drops, haymitch yaps so much, we get a lot more information about d12 in the first three chapters than in the main trilogy.
oh also did i mention the lgbtq rep, and that maysilee, louella, wyatt, and lenore dove are all icons? i need to get geese now.
participant's of today's hunger games! (it's in the discord server lmao, might be too lazy to put it here)
no bcs district 12 tributes for the 50th hunger games are iconic af.... lucy gray, jessup, katniss and peeta are cool and i love them but they are mostly pure angst... while these... louella and her "i don't want these idiots as my allies," maysilee and insulting everyone's fashion sense, wyatt and his betting on everyone's deaths, haymitch drinking snow's milk.... hilarious af, they're so bratty and insane i love them
