I absolutely adore Nif and Elk as a familiar pair. It’s perfect. However after just hearing Ame fly for the first time on a broom with the Fox side car in her bag, all I can think is: how Nif gunna make that deer fly?

I can excuse Samuel Dalton Reich gaslighting his players, but I draw the line at him gaslighting me

I write these posts then immediately forget they’re doing this to us. I fully believed we were in on the joke and there was no twist coming during the traitors episode. Confirmation bias at its finest

How much farther will Game Changer go now that the audience is being game changed at the start of each episode? And how scared should we be.

And why did I fully believe Lisa was British and I just hadn’t noticed before

still laughing abt the succinct but heartfelt "whoops" that Josh said upon mixing up accident with addiction ahahaha, everyone in the room felt that banana peel slide.

he really has a great understated elegance in elevating ppl, the way he listens and lets that conversation just unwind. exquisite, perfection, mwah!

the concept and idea of “you can always start trying to be a better person” is extremely important to me both in media and irl and i continue to be deeply deeply disturbed by the trend on this site pushing that these ideas in media are bad writing or even morally reprehensible

because theyd rather someone stay terrible or just straight up die than become a better person 

from a compassionate point of view it’s deeply distressing and from a pragmatic point of view it’s outright frustrating

it’s fucked up.

In honor of the fact I’m apparently on dropout!? Here is the Bingo game I handed out at the D20 cosplay meet up for Gauntlet at the Garden if anyone wants to play along next week!

the reused trackers in sunrise on the reaping

in sotr it is revealed the capitol reuses the tributes' trackers.

“What happens if we win? Do they take it out?” asks Wyatt.

“We collect all of them from the tributes, dead or alive,” says the woman. “They’re reusable. Of course, this year we needed twenty-four extra.”

i have seen some people speculate this is a cruelty on the capitol's part. it could be fatal to reuse trackers inserted under the skin and removed from dead bodies.

i actually think the reused trackers show a weakness on the capitol's part. there is this myth the capitol has infinite resources and funds, that they are calculating in every way. but what we see throughout sotr is this is not fully the case. the capitol is cruel yes, but they aren't as put together as they want everyone to believe.

the capitol hoards the resources produced by the districts. they live beyond their means, lavishly. this however doesn't mean there is infinite resources. what brought together panem was a series of events, one being resource scarcity!

instead the leaders of the capitol keep up the illusion to the citizens of the capitol that they have plenty of resources, never ending. to create a sense of security. the people in the capitol feel comfortable and safe. they never worry about anything. they don't have to. everything they could even need simply appears with out the signs of labor with out even lifting their finger!

with the trackers, and other things, we see that they really do not have enough. there are places they must cut corners. yes, they spend and waste so many resources on the games, but they save where they can. why make more trackers when you can just reuse the same 24 every year?

Shoutout to Vic Michealis for being the first person to ever score negative points on Game Changer. The only person to truly understand that the game is the players vs Sam and stick to that no matter the cost. The real winner, if you ask me.

I think this episode really illustrates how we were expecting the wrong contestant to snap

We all watched brennans epic rivalry with Sam and thought it was be him to finally destroy Sam. But we ignored that brennan loves to follow the rules and try his best. He's gonna do godamm best at these fucked up trials Sam puts him through

Vic, lou and Jacob however HATE being told what to do and will do anything to make Sam pay after Sam's says
