MAJOR SOTR SPOILERS

I feel like most stories I've seen that tackle the topic of propaganda always show the dangers of it in a similar way. They show blatant displays of violence that are hidden away from the people

But in Panem, violence is the point. So how does SOTR show the dangers of propaganda?

A) They cover up The Capitol's incompetence. (D12's Reaping, The Tribute Parade, Louella's death, Lou Lou being a real slap-dash solution, Haymitch being able to break parts of the arena, tributes finding and killing low rank game makers in the arena)

and B) Erasing any memory of the solidarity between the districts, and the strength it gives them. Mainly in the way Haymitch's games were edited to erase the Newcomers- an alliance between EIGHT DISTRICTS. (Some might say it failed, but a lot of those kids survived longer and were a little less scared because of it and that matters.) And by making Haymitch seem like he's the victor because he only played for himself (aka that's the only way to survive-forced individualism)

Something like this would be so colossally helpful. I'm sick and tired of trying to research specific clothing from any given culture and being met with either racist stereotypical costumes worn by yt people or ai generated garbage nonsense, and trying to be hyper specific with searches yields fuck all. Like I generally just cannot trust the legitimacy of most search results at this point. It's extremely frustrating. If there are good resources for this then they're buried deep under all the other bullshit, and idk where to start looking.

Katniss, during almost the entirety of the trilogy: I don't want kids but I want Peeta to have children so much. He is so dad-shaped it hurts, Imagining his kids running in the meadow in 12 brings me so much joy..

Peeta: has never, not once,expressed any desire to have kids before the epilogue

poor baby is still mentally recovering from her games

(I'm doing a comic about annie and finnick so thats why she is dress like that)

(in the comic it is explain that her stylist is making her use one ot that skin lightening cream so she'll be looking more capitol-like, thats why her stylist makes her red-head also, cuz it was my headcanon that shes naturally brunett)

Omg I just found your blog and your art is LOVELY. I was wondering if you had a timeline for when your commissions will be back open? Totally understand if not but I had to ask!

Thank you!!! I've been working on a webcomic that's been taking up a lot of my free time so I'm not sure yet! But I love doing commissions so I'm hoping to open them again soon!!

Having a fun idea for a video game and absolutely zero knowledge of how to program is its own brand of torture I fear

Found out their ship name is Seblaine (and also that that's a couple from Glee too? idk I never watched it)

Fun fact: I’ve been having a minor to severe Odyssey hyper fixation for over a year now
