When you thought it would be easy peasy lemon squeezy but it turns out to be difficult difficult lemon difficult.

Imagine being JD Vance, who makes such a huge part of his personality being catholic. The pope himself takes time to lecture you on compassion then promptly DIES. The pope uses one of his last hours on earth to tell you that you suck at your religion on EASTER. And then DIES. Anyway RIP Pope Francis

This is akin all those hot takes about the 2k bug being an hoax:

"Remember when they told us every computer was going to crash on 1/1/01 and there would be chaos and then nothing happened?"

Yeah, I remember. And I'm sure every programmer and sysadmin that contributed the billion person/hour global effort to prevent it also remembers.

No one talks about acid rain anymore, either. And that's a very good thing.

International cooperation is actually so effective that most people don’t even notice it happening, and then erroneously believe it can’t solve anything.

katniss in book 3: my childrens playground is built on dead bodies and bones, i never wanted children but peeta convinced me, i will never heal from what happened to me. the end 

me reading that shit at 15:

[prettypinkdork]

I mean, she did explicitly want children. She was just determined to never have them because she didn’t feel it was fair to have kids who might be forced to enter the Hunger Games and after her involvement in the games she feared kids would be used against her. Her having children at the end means she thinks they can have a future.

Edit: The Hunger Games are about a world where violent revolution was nessecary and justified but the war was not glorious and caused pain and trauma to people involved. In having children the epilogue tells us that Katniss believes the revolution made things better even though she will always be scarred from the experience.

Reblogging this vers bc ppl in the notes have the coldest fucking takes the ending of mockingjay was Susan Collins realizing what you, the reader, needed to see was the fact Katniss’ trauma doesnt just magically heal or go away Katniss doesn’t just get the perfect life with a husband and two kids but rather her and Peeta spend years healing and working through their traumas and helping each other recover in a very realistic way and then she chooses to have kids because she finally feels like not only will her and Peeta have futures but that their kids wont be in danger merely from existing. Hunger Games has such a good and realistic portrayal of heavy topics and shows a great deal about handling depression, anxiety, and PTSD and the ppl in the notes somehow missed these fact the end knows you don’t want to just see everything be magically okay. Like if you want a shitty epilogue that doesn’t acknowledge that recovering from something like this isnt perfect and takes time just go read Deathly Hollows again lol

i love codependent relationships in fiction i love watching two messy people unforgivably in love with each other shatter the world around them i love seeing interpretations of love as a cosmic disastrous redemptive force i love watching love consume people whole i love looking at romantic relationships and going "oh that is so fucked up! good for them"

[healingsuggestions]

if they don’t get you, someone else will. if they don’t love you, tons of other people will. if they are not right for you it’ll still be okay.
