FINALLY SOMEONE ELSE GETS IT‼️‼️‼️

I don’t think that we talk sufficiently about how crazy the line “and it could be true now, couldn’t it?” is. Because the natural next sentence should be something along the lines of “if the Capitol had gotten their way.“ But it’s not. It has everything to do with Katniss’s personal reservations about marriage and family warring with what she might want otherwise. Granted, of course, these reservations have to do with the society she is living in and the atrocities in which the Capitol citizens are complicit, but the thing that is holding her back is not lack of innate desire. It is a self acknowledged wall of defense that makes her recoil. Also, realistically, given the way we see preparations for the wedding unfolding, which I imagine would put it sometime near or a little before the summer of the Quell (perhaps after her birthday? to appease her mother at least from a PR standpoint?), that would be one fast honeymoon pregnancy. Sure, she could reasonably anticipate the pressure for them to have children, but I just don’t get the sense that this unrealized Capitol future is what she’s referring to at all. I think she’s strongly implying that were she not living in the nightmare of Panem (especially one without her father) she would feel free to fall for Peeta, and it wouldn’t be completely outside the realm of possibility for them to have had a very young marriage (and pregnancy). Now, that’s cultural, as per Coryo’s musings in the prequel, and I don’t know that I’d recommend that course of action for Katniss, but it’s wild that she’s even theoretically open to it. It tells you so much about the themes of this series, as embodied by Katniss. A young person should have the chance to make such a happy choice unburdened by the thought of dire consequences, but in a world where people are metaphorically (and almost literally) encouraged to eat each other, there is no freedom for that. The ultimate irony is that every reader that buys into the “Katniss has no time for love! she has a war to fight” line utterly misunderstands why Katniss becomes a force for change: yes, she has no time for love, and no one does, and that is wrong. The Capitol wants her to have the picture perfect domestic ending. Coin wants her to go out in a blaze of Mockingjay glory. The point of Katniss is that she wants neither prescribed end. Katniss wants something that is her own choice, and she spends a lot of the final book thinking that suicide is the answer, the act of autonomy. She comes full circle when she realizes that going on living is the act of autonomy, and only then is she able to begin to figure out who she is when she isn’t in defense mode. We don’t see much of it, but that’s the entire point. We’re not supposed to. She doesn’t give us intimate details about Peeta and her children because those things are most precious to her, now that they are true. She expects us, the readers, to have come to care for her enough to give her the privacy she deserves.

Will would NOT listen to Taylor,he’s to dominant for that shit.

Mike however…He’s a bit twinky..

Okay both are twinks but Mike would listen to one Taylor song on repeat and Will would be like:Why tf did I choose you?HOW CAN YOU LISTEN TO THAT!?

P.S Will is definitely that type of person to say “name 5 songs” when you wear a Nirvana shirt and if you don’t know any then he would go ballistic autism and teach you everything.This has happened to Max at least 2 times.

“he would not fucking say that” except it’s “he would not fucking listen to taylor swift”

Holy shit.

The cover page for a digital comic. A trailhead information board stands in a lush green forest, with a trail map, and two signs pinned to the wood. The text on the signs read: "BY BECKETT JONES" and "THE TRAVELER'S WARNING."

Three comic panels on an off-white background. Objects depicted in the negative space of the page include a work boot, a leather-bound journal, a compass, and a colorful rock bracelet.

The first panel is a Forest Service gate on a dirt road, slightly ajar. The road goes out of sight into leafy green shadows. There is one wooden sign nailed to a tree, and two white and green signs secured to the gate. The text on these signs reads:
"TRAVELER, STOP!
IF YOU TAKE THIS ROAD YOU WILL BE
FUNDAMENTALLY CHANGED
FOR BETTER OR WORSE."

The second panel is a crumbling concrete barrier on gray, driving rain. There are evergreen trees in the background. There is a hand symbol pointing to the right engraved into the barrier, and text that reads:
"YOU WILL RETURN FROM
THIS JOURNEY
IRRECOVERABLY ALTERED
IN WAYS"

The third panel is a waterfall with conifer trees, behind a glossy red sign with "no swimming"white symbols. White text on the sign reads:
"YOU CANNOT COMPREHEND
BEFORE YOU UNDERGO
THIS TRANSFORMATION."

Two comic panels on an off-white background. An espresso machine portafilter is pictured in the negative space in the page.

The first panel is of a red rock slot canyon, with a rushing green river at the base. A rusted yellow sign stands in the water, with a flash flood symbol and text that reads:
"NO ONE ON EARTH
WILL UNDERSTAND THE
METAMORPHOSIS"

The second panel is a wooden sign hanging from the eaves of a roof, in front of a snow mountain scene. Stars twinkle in the night sky. Warm red text on the sign reads:
"EXCEPT THOSE WHO EXPERIENCED IT
WITH YOU. THE PEOPLE WHO LOVE YOU." There is an arrow symbol and two foamy mugs also depicted on the sign.

Two comic panels on an off-white background. Objects depicted in the negative space of the page include a key ring, a pocketknife, a stuffed toy bluebird, and a bandana.

The first panel is a road with a center stripe in a sagebrush plain, with big orange clouds in the sky. A coyote slinks across the road. A big green highway sign with white arrows reads:
"MAY CEASE TO TRULY KNOW YOU.
WALKING BACKWARDS
WILL NOT HELP YOU"

The second panel is of a high alpine wildflower meadow, with a glaciated Mount Tahoma in the background. A wooden stake reads:
"WALKING FORWARDS"

Three comic panels on an off-white background. Objects depicted in the negative space of the page include a headlamp, a trowel, and a plant sprig in a ziplock bag.

The first panel is a wildfire sunset above a barbed wire fence surrounded by blooming fireweed and evergreens. An orange wildfire hazard sign reads:
"IS INEVITABLE
YOU CANNOT STAND STILL"
A gray jay sits on the top of the sign, eyeing the viewer.

The second panel shows a dilapidated wooden shack, covered in moss and white and orange mushrooms. Evergreens and leafy undergrowth surround the structure, and a Pacific gray tree frog sits on a leaf in the foreground. Text carved into the wood reads:
"YOU MAY NO LONGER RECOGNIZE
YOUR HOME"

The third panel is a chinook salmon run in a green forest. Underwater reeds flow on the river. A white sign nailed to a tree trunk, with water symbols and text that reads:
"IT CANNOT STAND STILL
EITHER."

Three comic panels on an off-white background. Objects depicted in the negative space of the page including an ammonite fossil on a leather cord, a green nalgene, a peach, and a pulaski.

The first panel shows a gray ocean storm, with waves crashing against big, dark rocks. A tsunami hazard zone sign reads:
"IF YOU SURVIVE THIS"

The second panel shows a round orange bouy floating in a sea illuminated by bioluminescent plankton. Stars glitter overhead. Text on the bout reads:
"YOU WILL BECOME PART OF A WORLD"

The third panel shows a pair of dolphins in the water, adjacent to a white boat. A red sticker on the gunwhale reads:
"THAT DOES NOT YET EXIST"

Three comic panels on an off-white background. Objects depicted in the negative space of the page include a pair of sunglasses and a machete.

"IF YOU DIE HERE"

The second panel shows a blacktip reef shark swimming on a coral reef. And underwater sign affixed to steel chain shows a skull and crossbones, and text that reads:
"YOU WILL COME BACK"

The third panel is a GPS unit held up to the sky, showing a GPS track and text that reads "WRONG." Seabirds fly overhead.

Three comic panels on an off-white background. Objects shown the negative space of the page are a snickerdoodle cookie and hale koa flowers threaded on a string.

The first panel shows a pair of hands holding a sooty tern with a radio tag. Another pair of hands write in a notebook, and handwritten text on the page reads:
"TRAVELER
YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED"

The second panel shows the leg of the sooty tern, which has been fitted with a birdband.

The third panel is a pair of fingers holding the birdband so that engraved text faces the viewer. The text reads "AND NOW YOU MUST GO."

A short comic I made about my experiences as a seasonal worker, and the way places change you.

“Oh eyes.

Tell us your mind.

The dreams of fear.

And haunted tears.

Don’t despair,my dear.

For I watch you drink your own tears.

Oh eyes.

Tell us your mind.

Of terror and comfort.

The blood in your eyes.

Don’t bleed,my dear.

For I watch you devour your bleeding fears.

Oh eyes.

Don’t lie.

For I know your story already.

I have seen you lick up tears.

I have seen you spill the blood.

Don’t rage,my dear.

For I am more than just my eyes.

Or am I really?”

Realest shit I’ve seen all day

I would give this man the most sloppiest, wettest, creamiest soul taking, slimy, life changing, death dropping, heaven sent, flabbergasting, hypnotizing heavenly, astonishing, leg trembling, hands desperately grabbing the sheets, legs stretching out again and again, toe curling, voice breaking, whimper causing, waist slowly moving up and down, small heavy breath, "I can't take it much longer", breaths getting quicker, twitching throbbing eyes shut lip biting, back arching, edging begging for relief, warm hot rush bubbling up spit upon spit tongue twisting Ground tip-talking against mouth, sideways spit from the end and lick from the bottom to the top then spit from the top and lick to the bottom deepthroating mascara dripping down my face, slower then faster faster then little faster then perfect pace twisting mouth around each side, hands in my hair brutally using my mouth, spiritually enlightening chakra Balancing, mangekyo sharingan unlocking, golden light like a halo around the tip, noise from the very edge of his throat for the final release head ever. And THEN I'd let him pound me so hard into the bed and use my body as though it doesn't belong to me anymore that he literally just throws me around and does as he please. I wouldn't argue, I wouldn't raise a word, no sir, not to daddy, absolutely not. He could ruin me, corrupt me, hit me, choke me, tie me up, bite me, I would absolutely encourage everything he does as long as I get a smidge of his attention and love. This male could make me fuck myself on his fingers and I wouldn't complain even if I ended up passing out, he could bruise me up and laugh at me and I would take it just to listen to him praise me. I would take him for 50 rounds in 60 positions cause never back down never what???? NEVER GIVE UP and I am not giving up to screw me till my mind becomes nothing but subservient to him.
