The fanon concept of Fox killing Palpatine in almost every fic, art or text post is hillarious because it really shows how many of us can empathize with some dude who wants to kill his boss. Only Fox’s boss is the incarnate of all things evil and not just some dude who needs to get his life together
Back again with more low quality clone wars content
Was supposed to be a warmup but eh…
POV ur Commandant Sobeck watching the citadel's camera feed
"Look around-we're one and the same. Same heart, same blood"
Clones are more than just biological experiments. We learn this through the course of the Clone Wars. They care for each other, civilians, their Jedis, and even droids. They have fallen in love, started families, lead normal lives. The clone bar is always packed with soldiers trying to forget the war, trying to have fun, be people instead of experiments. There are so many horrifying missions they live through. The brain worms on Coruscant -- the Rishi Station -- Umbara -- Christophsis; they are feel the pain. They know when each brother dies, whether they're there when it happens or they hear about it in the mess hall 12 rotations later. The battle continues in their minds, when they are trying to sleep, examining strategies, trying to find what could've been done differently, how they could've saved lives. It's not by choice, it is in their programing. Sure they're a step up from droids, with some free thinking abilities. But since their birth they have been conditioned for war, rapid growth cycles aside: they are children, they just don't know it. The Nightmares. How many battles did it take before the average clone woke up in a cold sweat. How many pilots hands shook when they got in the cockpit, images of their brothers seared into the viewport. How long did it take for the constant battle to erode their humanity until they're no better than droids. Every clone knows The Nightmares. The failed missions, the weight of your brothers cold body in your arms. I can only imagine how the chip felt in their minds, could they feel it at all times, a tiny nagging in the back of their head saying "you can't be trusted, you're not in control." A sense of doom hanging over their heads, knowing their destined for greatness, an extermination. How did it feel, Tup, Fives, when they were free? When for just a moment, there was silence in their minds. Just a moment their thoughts were clear.
My poor poor boys, suffering things the mind can't even comprehend. Anyways, I'm rewatching the clone wars if you didn't notice (:
Henry: what happens if you wait for Santa on Christmas and he sees you?
Emily: where do you think he gets the elves?
Henry:
Henry: *cries*
JJ: Seriously???
Emily: JJ said she doesn't love me anymore
JJ: I said that I won't get you McDonald's cause we have food at home
Emily: It's the same thing!
I'm thinking about how Katniss describes the rock that Thresh uses to kill Clove. She compares its size to "a small loaf of bread." This is what I mean when I say I could talk about the bread symbolism for hours. It's actually insane that Thresh is saving her life here, but in Katniss' mind, it echoes Peeta. The first person who saved her. Peeta will always be the epitome of safety to her. God, it's just so—
Continuing on with viewing dystopian movies. Shout out to this king for not going fucking insane.
Man literally had the knowledge that there was no escape to The Maze for how long? Didn't tell nobody and just kept running like no big deal?? I would've gone crazy knowing I was leading my friends on with false hope. But he's an icon, he's the moment, he's built different.
But seriously, that replica he built of the maze was immaculate. He'd been running for 3 years? How long did he know, how long did it take him to find out that there was no exit? How did he decide not to tell the other?? It seems like Alby didn't know, that's a huge thing to keep from the one who's been there the longest.
Anyways, I haven't read the books yet, so I'll keep you updated. But overall a very slay movie, made my knees hurt thinking about all the running
My nummykins, my lil guy. His fucking speech: "Go on. I'm dead, anyway! I always was, right? I didn't know that until now.”
He was groomed for glory, unfortunately he didn't realize it till it was too late. But imagine if for once the careers rebelled??? Goddamn
Anyways
Humber Game
Another one 🤲
Also I definitely probably lost my point in there lol, it's a long read so beware
The whole thing, the whole point of the series as told by Katniss is to save Prim. That is the end all be all. We start with volunteering for Prim, Katniss tries her best to save Prim. This fact is glossed over the movies, it becomes a love triangle with battles. And that's ok! It makes for an entertaining film.
But. Prim's safety was never guaranteed. The moment Katniss vowed to protect her was the moment we sealed her fate. Chapter 1, Katniss mentions that she tries to protect Prim. Chapter 2, Prim's name is called. "The odds had been entirely in her favor. But it hadn't mattered." Chance is not a thing here, it was fate. Prim had to die. She could not exist in this world. Prim represents innocence, that's no secret. More specifically, I belive Katniss' innocence. They are literally ripped away from each other during the first Reaping. Katniss is 16 at this time. She them has to endure the horrors of the games, yippee, but when she returns home? It's different. Prim and her mother are more than happy to live in the new fancy house, but Katniss is already isolating herself in the forest and their old house, she realizes thay they dont understand, Prim is safe yes but she has lost that vital connection, because of what she went through. By the time of the Quater Quell she is only 17, still just a child. And Prim is still young but Katniss notes a change in her, noticing that she is not the same frail little girl. Fast forward, to the last book. Free from the games? Yes, but now forced to be a symbol for a rebellion she doesn't want, Katniss leans on Prim like a crutch. She is clinging to the last bit of "normalcy" she has. To the idea that things can be ok, and she can be free. But now we know for sure that Prim must die. Like I said before, Peeta is now an integral part of Katniss. Prim while still beloved doesn't even portray her original ideal. Gone is the shy little girl, picture of innocence. Know we have the doctor, full of hope? Yes, but changed by the cruel reality they live in. Yada yada, she ends up in the capitol on that day, where Katniss watches her get blown up! Everything she worked to protect, the whole reason she endured this nightmare, obliterated. So that's some mental scaring, she also suffers horrible burns! Spends a while in a hospital, we don't know how long g exactly but she need skin grafts and stuff. Became temporarily mute because of the emotional trauma.
So to rewind and go back to point A.
Prim had to die. Not for the shock value or some epic twist. But because that is the reality when children are sent to war. There is no happy ending where almost everyone makes it out alive and lives happily ever after. You come out scarred, and traumatized, you've lost your innocence, maybe even a portion of your humanity. There were no winners and lovers in the Hunger Games.
Only those that had to live with the consequences
Apologies for the tiny text, I literally wrote this on my instagram story then screenshotted it🤷🤷
Maybe I'll wrote out the text later
(Don't count on it tho)
Today I accidentally knocked a monarch caterpillar off its leaf and it fell and immediately began oozing green liquid. I was devastated. I thought I'd killed it. Turns out they do that on purpose to defend against predators. Fooled by a fat little worm. Irrecoverable
Reblog if you are more stupid than a bird
I am more stupid than a bird!!
Latest video is up and live, and I hope it helps those of you out there just getting into understanding your machine, and how to avoid having thread bunching or snapping on a domestic, or industrial sewing machine.
Reblogging to save this for later!
I'm so crazy, so crazy. Your honor, he's just a lil guy!
He's just as scared as she is!!!!!! He comes in not to comfort her, but he's seeking comfort!!! He doesn't want to be alone and he knows she shouldn't be alone either!!!
He's just a lil guy
Watching the hunger games with my friends who haven't read the books, and desperately trying to convey the horror of the mutts to them. They are not just big dogs! They are the other tributes, they look like them! They have human eyes!
Katniss stared into Rue's eyes as she died! Now those eyes are in a blood thirsty beast who is trying to kill her!
Maybe my imagination is just too good, but those things terrify the shit out of me, and they did not do them justice in the movie.
Still love the movie tho!
