#difficult to understand

[bopinion]

I'm just wondering...

...where the Water is in Earth, Wind & Fire?

...why ancient Greece kept its wisdom to itself?

...where the b-sides can be found on playlists?

...how the immune response to right-wing extremism can be better stimulated?

...why the functioning of a door is apparently so difficult to understand?

...why there is a difference between "just wanting to" and "just doing it"?

...why we seem to be more interested in foreign planets than our own?

...why my teenager has to smell like teen spirit?

...why 2024 can't be boringly normal?

...why it has to be my fault?

Do you guys notice how when Shawn Fain, president of the United Auto Workers union, started planning a general strike, he did it by a) targeting his messaging towards unions with the ability to safely and effectively strike in large numbers, b) laid out a clear, actionable plan for those unions to follow (setting contracts to all expire at the same time, since many unions cannot strike while under contract), c) is using union contracts to set clear, actionable demands that can be met in order to gauge success and provide an end goal, and d) started organizing FOUR YEARS before the proposed strike date to give people the chance to plan accordingly, because it takes a really freaking long time to get tens of millions of people organized?

You notice how he didn't do it by slapping a message on Twitter saying 'hey nobody go to work on Monday, that'll really show 'em'?

Listen to me Suzanne Collins did not have to give Katniss and Peeta a history before the games. She did NOT have to do that. She could have just had their story begin when Peeta's name was called. She could have had them be total strangers until the moment of the reaping.

Like: "And the boy tribute is... Peeta Mellark!" Katniss: Who's that? Or she could have made them vaguely familiar with each other! Peeta's name is called and Katniss just thinks, Oh, I know that name! He's in my class, actually. Poor boy... Anyway!

Either way, SC could have written the rest of the story exactly the same! I think many authors would have done that! Because if Peeta's purpose in the book was to be Gale's competition, to be one of the 3 corners of a love triangle, THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN THE WAY TO DO IT!! But that's NOT how she did it because that's NOT what Peeta is.

And what is he? To Katniss, Peeta's someone who saved her and her family and received nothing in return except a beating. Peeta's someone she has had her eye on but has never worked up the courage to talk to. Peeta's someone she associates with kindness and hope. And all this before the start of the events of the book! Just because WE, the READERS, met Gale before Peeta and immediately felt a connection with him does NOT mean that was Katniss's experience! And that's what SC is trying to tell us!

To dismiss Katniss and Peeta's past as unimportant or inconsequential compared to whatever Katniss and Gale have in the present is to fundamentally misunderstand Katniss as a character and, as a result, condemn oneself to never fully understand the choices she makes in the future.

Suzanne Collins wrote it that way on purpose because she had something to say. And no one will ever be able to convince me that something wasn't "It was always going to be Peeta".

Life is like balancing act, much like walking on a tightrope. People who manage to maintain a good balance between things are most admirable to me. (x)

Man, if there was any justice in the world, Valvert would be the biggest Les Mis ship by a long shot. Seriously, they're the protagonist and the antagonist. They're FOILS. They're enemies (?) to lovers. They're based on the same guy. They're soulmates. They're old men. They're sad and dead, but have the capability to live and love if they just saved each other. They're toxic. They're the most loving couple out there. They've been alone for so, so long. They're the only people who truly know each other. They're virgins. They're kinky.

And they only have 2500 fics on ao3🤡

This glorious old man yaoi was Victor Hugo's original vision. Let us not forget it.

truly rip Caleb for getting absolutely stuck with the dirt wizard epithet even though the rest of the Nein were content to wash all of the blood off at the wash station in the inn and he was over here like "excuse me, this is not adequate and I have some money now, I'm going to a PROPER bathhouse"

[larvamars]

they're nasty
