Hello friends it’s been a while,

First of all I would like to come out and offer my condolences to Liam’s family, this entire situation is so tragic and I cannot begin to pretend to understand how the loss of Liam is affecting those who knew and loved him so much.

With that said, the death of Liam Payne really has broken my heart. The teenage girl inside me is mourning the loss of this person in a way I didn’t expect.

I would also like to add that this should be a wake up call to everyone online. Liam’s recent activities had garnered so much cyber bullying. Yes, he did things as of late that were not acceptable, but the amount of backlash he received online recently was really just spewing hate in a vile way. He was obviously struggling and the world nitpicked everything he did in a way that was excessive and just downright evil.

Please remember, when you are online and commenting there is another human being on the other side. It’s easy to forget when we’re looking at a screen that we aren’t just speaking into the abyss. With social media being so prevalent we disassociate the account from the actual person behind it.

We all need to be mindful of the intention behind our words, online or not. TPWK.

With love,

blogginjh.

one thing about me is i used to have a blog dedicated to The Thundermans {on Nickelodeon} with intense headcannons i still live by & tonnes of reblogs, which featured Girl Meets World {on Disney} for Lucaya & it’s been almost ten years since then, but whenever Sabrina Carpenter cries, i do or if Thundermans cast interacts i still smile & that’s How to Live Successfully Without Really Wanting To

this is such a lovely conversation of a very nuanced concept

[brookesophelias]

Anna K went home & Vronsky went behind her. on the train, he said “i’m going wherever you are.” when Anna met Alexey Alexandrovich, she tried to forget Vronsky & he, her. (Her husband just wanted to hold her hand but) Vronsky keeps following them.

Alexei Vronsky flipping between “hedonistic himbo,” and “lovestruck intellectual,” is irritating. (this is not golden retriever boyfriend). Anna falling in love with him is not romantic, in my diagnosed-borderline, opinion. it makes me sick & im similar to her.

meanwhile, Alexey Karenin—he just wants to love his sick wife, & she is only thinking the other guy is better. did anyone think this novel would have a happy ending?

this is beautiful & exactly why i love The Hunger Games itself so much

i am a firm believer that the most significant difference between the 74th games and the ones before is the berry scene. it is the concept that two people would risk their own survival, their own life, in order to save the person they love.

because it is not like all of the children that came before katniss and peeta were coldhearted killers. they weren't. in fact, many of them actively memorialized their dead peers. they saw the other tributes as people. people that deserved respect and reverence in their pitiful funeral.

however, for all of the tributes, their survival came first. even reaper, who offered a proper funeral for his fellow tributes, was very clear about his intentions to kill the others. and yes, he was sorry about it. but at the end of the day. he would kill them (tbosas, 191).

but for katniss and peeta, they just... couldn't. they couldn't let the other person die in front of them. let alone, kill them.

because although katniss's memorial for rue was powerful, it was not new. but the fact that they would rather die than live in a world without the other? that was the radical thing.

poor kitty-girl!!!

"What was pictured so clearly to Kitty in the mirror of Anna’s face she saw in him. What had become of his always self-possessed resolute manner, & the carelessly serene expression of his face? Now every time he turned to her, he bent his head, as though he would have fallen at her feet, & in his eyes there was nothing but humble submission and dread."

ANNA JUST STOLE HER MAN!! where is her husband????

[brookesophelias]

Anna Karenina has arrived & Kitty idolises her. Kitty’s expected fiancé, Alexei Vronsky has decided that Anna is the woman for him. Kitty turned down Levin’s proposal for Vronsky’s, who with his "courting girls with no intention of marriage; that such courting is one of the evil actions common among brilliant..." is total himbo energy.

look, Kitty, i get that Levin's whole thought process that you're a "smile that shed light on all 'round," as well as believing any place you "stood seemed to him a holy shrine," is intense. i know but come on, the man is emotionally available!!!

Anna is to visit her brother. now she's a couples therapist for Stiva’s marriage ❤️‍🩹. Anna just wants to have a vacation.
