Katniss is such an unreliable narrator. She says "Then something unexpected happens. At least, I don't expect it because I don't think of District 12 as a place that cares about me" girl you deliver strawberries to the Mayor, you hunt and trade for the district, when you fell at Prim being chosen someone caught you, when you went to Prim people parted for you, when you volunteered EVERYONE stopped. Idk how to tell you but I think you're a pillar of the community.

#katniss everdeen #the hunger games trilogy #the hunger games #primrose everdeen #hunger games #batcavescolony reads the hunger games #suzanne collins #'now it seems i have become someone precious' NOW? GIRL BFFR you're their hunter girl #and this isn't negative just bffr girl #your WHOLE DISTRICT did the three finger salute that you yourself says means admiration thanks and goodbye to someone you love and on top is #old a rarely used. your WHOLE DISTRICT decided in that moment that they needed to bring back this sign of respect for YOU #...................................................................#idk why some people are thinking i mean this as negative i don't she is unreliable but its not intentional. like when Peeta heart stoped in #CF she doesn't know what Finnick is doing at first cus she doesn't know off the top of her head what cpr is. she also thinks Peeta after the #reaping is acting for the cameras. he isnt we dind out later his mom basically told him Katniss was gonna win and he would die. obviously #shes not doing it on purpose shes just for lack of better words uneducated? as in she doesn't know everything shes not omnipotent #so when Plutarch (? second games guy) shows her his mokingjay hiden watch shes like *wtf that's weird?* then the people traveling to #district 13 show her the mockingjay cookie and explains it and she then goes on the difference between his watch and their cookie #and why does eveyone act as if district 12 is as bad as the capital? they CANT help Katniss and Prim in the way you want. they cant give #them food. none of them have any! and im not putting iton Katniss but they hid they needed food so they could stay together. it sounds like #some of you are in this our world mentally of what people do after a loved one dies (brings food constantly checks on them etc) district 12 #cant do that. they dont have food and they're all suffering. you cant give someone food when you have none to give. then theirs the fact #that peeta DID help. Peeta buring the bread and tossing some to her then taking a beating from his mom is a HUGE thing in the books.#he used his resources to help her like you all said someone should.#district 12 DID (rip) care about Katniss before the hunger games. why do you think she was allowed to hunt? or how her trades were good #these are the little ways 12 can shows Katniss they love her. but again Katniss doesn't see this and YES its because she had ptsd before the #hunger games as well. i swear some of you make it seem like d12 was all living a life of luxury and glaring down at Katniss.#other things that show Katniss is in hight standing with at least her people of d12 is her dad was known enough through d12 for peeta dad to #comment on his singing along with his commenting on her mom. also her mom is a healer in the community. yeah her parents arnt the top but #of d12 but they are/were definitely high staning in the Seam.

You know I used to think "tumblr's absolute refusal to actually engage with the Trolley Problem in favor of insisting that there must be a third, morally pure option that doesn't require them to make a hard decision and anyone who asks them to make a binary choice is just a short-sighted idiot is really fucking annoying, but I guess it's not actually doing any harm".

Anyway that was before we asked tumblr at large to decide between "guy aiding a genocide but making progress elsewhere" and "guy who would actively and enthusiastically participate in a genocide and would also make everything else much, much worse for everyone elsewhere" and the response was that there must be a third, morally pure option that doesn't require them to make a hard decision and that anyone who asks them to make a binary choice is a short-sighted idiot.

#there is not a third option. it is either trump OR biden #and one of those will be much MUCH worse for palestine #i'm really really sorry that these are the options. i wish they weren't.#but WHAT third option are you trying to take here? what on earth is your proposed outcome #that will actually make things better for palestine?#because letting trump win the election is NOT going to help them #i'm sorry but you need to set aside your feelings and take the option that will lead to less harm to palestine in the long run #you talk such a big game about how people need to be willing to make sacrifices to help palestine #but you yourself aren't even willing to hold your nose and vote to stop things from getting worse?#or did you think 'sacrifice' only meant not getting mcdonalds for a few months?#us politics

it is genuinely and truly terrifying to watch trump and his apostles create a crisis and then "resolve" the crisis.

it is terrifying to watch right-wing media first say they love the tariffs, that "america is finally first again," that we don't need to be in a global economy. but then trump changes his mind. the media, in the next day or even hour - suddenly admits that the market was crashing, that we were in serious economic danger. but no worries because trump has saved us all! he's brought us back from the brink and stocks skyrocketed, something biden never did! trump's a hero! he loves us! he saved america!

i hate that the word "fascist" doesn't even seem to alarm them anymore. i hate that they treat it as a joke. i hate that others lift their noses and say triggered, libs? while lives fall apart. this is a man who has a religion behind him. this is a god-king. this is a man who has warped the soul of america, and they treat him as if he's just a goofy genius with a heart of gold.

within one hour of the tarriffs being announced, i already saw a commenter on instagram saying this is how we know he's playing chess, not checkers. but all the libs already sold their stocks, and i'm sat here laughing. i had to close my eyes.

#i'm so sick of pointing to 1984.#i'm so sick of pointing to history.#one of the ONLY times i've been able to win a conversation about this with a right winger #is by being ardently Raised Religious so i went with the ''oh my!!!! the first commandment!!#thou shall have no other gods before me!!! watch how you speak of him!!! i shall pray for you.#all men have sin except for our Lord Jesus :) ''#<- my father is a deacon. he tried to raise a Weapon of God.#i'll give it to him. he did indeed raise a weapon.

i thought naming myself this would be really funny. and it Is. every time i get into a match i think about gabriel playing Miku Rhythm Game

#art #ultrakill #gabriel #v1 #comic #doodles #project sekai #can you believe this was the idea that got me out of like a month and a half long creative dry spell. can you believe it #look man i'll take it where i can get it ok #do u like his jesus phone #anyway i no longer rage at rhythm game. there is a little gabriel in my head that does it for me (way funnier)#this isnt even a game its a gacha pretending to be a game. your score isnt based on skill its based on how fancy your characters are lmao #its Nearly pay to win on account of you can get good characters if you play enough but like. cmon man. dhbdshjbf #and i think touchscreen based rhythm games are... a horrible idea. on top of that. buttons are better and more reliable #CONCEPTUALLY i hate this game. and yet i play it frequently. oops ! project diva was better but lord knows theyre never making another #i didnt mean to rant about dumb mobile games in these tags but here i am. i am not immune to rhythm games. even if they #are ''games'' and not real games. i hit funny buttons in time to music and it makes my brain go Hee Hoo #anyway put the phone down gabriel im here to kick your ass

#American politics #Biden harris #Jumblr #kamala harris #kamala 2024 #us politics #election 2024 #2025 #israel palestine conflict #pro palestine #Like yes things are not ideal politics is complicated. That’s why you vote for the BEST AVAILABLE OPTION RIGHT NOW #I can already tell what some of the braindead takes are gonna be like “we were just using out votes to oppose facismmmmm”#Omg well if deMoCrAts haven’t been silent for 7 yearsssss #The amount of arrogance you have to have to have these sort of takes as you take the freedom of minorities and women hostage #The republicans won’t be silent for 7 years. They’ll be actively campaigning for your blood. Hope that’s better.#Keep reassuring each other that you did the right thing. Keep patting yourselves on the back. Hope it’s all worth it.#Yes protest but goddamn use some COMMON SENSE????#And ANOTHER THING why wasn’t the rights of women an acceptable enough reason to ENSURE orange man doesn’t take office??#The way that some people can be this selfish and unable to care about others if it doesn’t immediately benefit them #the sad thing is I know this won’t change their minds or attitudes they will continue to blame everyone else and take zero accountability #No matter how you feel about Kamala nothing you say will convince me that letting trump win is a better alternative. NOTHING.
