Imagine Spending All Your Energy Being Cool And Mysterious 24/7.

aphrodite kids who participate in camp and in combat in unconventional ways other cabins often completely overlook.

aphrodite kids keeping logs of how cabins interact with one another and working on cabin co-operation to ensure there isn’t any bad blood between campers that would strain camp relationships.

aphrodite kids being attentive during meetings to minor changes in facial expressions and body language and doing their best to make sure nobody harbors grudges or resentment towards other cabins because they feel they’re not being listened to or given a chance to speak and express themselves.

aphrodite kids being contrasting tactical minds to athena kids, seeing emotions and motivations where the athena cabin sees facts and logic, bridging the gap between logic and emotion to make plans more inclusive and accomodating for everyone.

aphrodite kids being able to assess the weak links and strained relationships of their enemies and using it to their full advantage to cause unrest and distrust within enemy ranks.

aphrodite kids being adept at the art of disguise, reinventing themselves and infiltrating enemy territory to glean valuable information that would otherwise be impossible to receive. 

aphrodite kids using charmspeak to diffuse a heated situation between campers and allies before it can escalate to arguments and violence.

aphrodite kids spreading body positivity and counselling troubled younger campers with self-worth issues, who invite other campers into their cabins or visit them in their cabins to vent and discuss what’s bothering them over junk food and silly movies.

aphrodite kids who send anonymous notes full of compliments and praise to campers who look like they need something nice for themselves, who keep track of birthdays and anniversaries and always have a small celebration or token or acknowledgement and appreciation prepared for those whose milestones and accomplishments go otherwise unnoticed.

aphrodite kids doing all of this while maintaining confidence and love for themselves, because there’s nothing wrong with loving and supporting others while still maintaining self-love and positivity for yourself (despite how the narrative absolutely shits on this aspect of them on a near-constant basis).

there was a moment when the people in the movie theatre and the capitol audience in the stands were laughing at the same things, having the same reactions to the games, to the deaths, to flickermans jokes, to the doctor's announcement...i wonder aren't we watching it for entertainment too

suzanne collins' books may exist in popular culture as "dystopian", but they have always been a meticulous and startlingly close social critique of our world. at what point does our own idolization of the movies and the books repeat that story? we watch just as the capitol audience does.

all dystopia eventually crosses a line from realistic futurism to current relevancy. how long will it take us to realize we've already crossed that line with these books? and the very people who need to realize this are the ones in that audience...real or fake, we're the same: consuming and consuming.

The fact that Loid Forger doesn’t have a PTA mom enemy for him to have a passive aggressive cook off with is cruelty to me specially.

Hey, Show Apply This Mentality To Stolas Instead Of Coddling Him Just Because Blitzo Rightfully Called Him Out For Everything He Did!!!

You know what really infuriates me about this exchange is that this could also apply to Stolas but instead we are supposed to side with him expecting Blitzo to forgive and forget the bs he was put through. And the narrative and show tries to gaslight you thinking that Stolas is the victim of not having his feelings returned and that he's entitled to Blitzo. Also again this is the same show that made Stolas not sorry for cheating on his wife by trying to make her a one dimensional pos. This guy openly admitted he didn't think he did anything wrong (despite the fact that it hurt his daughter). Again Stolas has done the exact same thing where he disregarded other people's feelings and treats himself as a victim to be pitied. Although Blitzo has the bigger count, Stolas shouldn't be apart of the victim squad because he's a victimer who has victimized Blitzo, Stella, and his daughter with his actions yet never truly pays for them because of his sob story bs.

Also if you want to add more victims of Stolas how about all the servants he mistreated they could tell stories about what a pos he is. Seriously, I hate this serie want to think it's wrong that Blitzo has a negative opinion of Stolas and treat he changed and that makes him owed a relationship even when it's obvious he should have expected that Blitzo wouldn't change overnight because of one grand gesture. Yet, Blitzo is expected to make up for his own mistakes, while Stolas can coast by being a pos because of sad (weak) backstory card.

It feels like what Tv tropes would called a Broken Aesop which a lesson is taught about something but is contradicted by what is actually presented which is the fact that Blitzo is expected to realize sorry doesn't erase the issues he has made with people but Stolas isn't. The narrative tries to say he's realized what he did was wrong, but it doesn't and tv tropes itself tries to erase how how much of a pos he was in the past. Blitzo is expected to own up to his actions regardless if he says sorry, while Stolas gets the crybaby treatment he doesn't deserve because he himself was no better and in many ways even worse. Its again a show how the fans and show does everything to let Stolas off the hook for this ship and it's infuriating.
