Oh you think you were a fan of Maysilee Donner, Haymitch Abernathy, Haymitch’s family + girlfriend, Katniss’s parents, Plutarch Heavensbee, the Undersees, the second Quarter Quell, etc, BEFORE Sunrise on the Reaping was announced?

How many of you wrote FANFICTION about them???

No seriously I’m not doubting you I just want some fanfic recs-

[saturnaous]

[sunieepo]

"who's hotter? blonde anime stick man or lawn gnome?" i cant tell if this is an improvement over finding the cartoon skeletons attractive or not

[ghostcrows]

here's my thing ok i really beliueve i am entitled to the diva's attitude. controversial as it may be. just because im masc just because im some guy im still a beautiful angel you should worship and put on a pedestal when i feel like being up there. thats not my fucking fault thats just how the cards play out sometimes

[silverselfshippingchaos]

so there's this character. i always thought he looked kinda stupid and i never found him attractive. but, uh....

... has he always been this handsome?!

[misiahasahardname]

[ai-the-broccoli]

aaghh I hate health anxiety ocd (or whatever you call it), it's literally doing nothing other than contributing to make my health worse

... wait actually, does anyone have like, tips/advice for that kind of thing? I really think I need some help with this one

[orcelito]

Despite all odds, I have arrived home safely👍

Turns out that the earlier goop was the better goop. The adderall goop. The adderall has worn off now though. So I am. Very incredibly out of it.

But I am home. And I will take my quick shower. And then I will climb into bed.

I do need to eat. But... later...

i keep thinking i rly didnt go thru that much growing up, but idk, everytime i tell someone abt my life, they say i did and kinda just like sit in shock abt it. am i just internet brained or smth, or am i just dramatic?? i rly dont think ive earned a lot of the symtoms of someone who was traumatized that i have. or maybe i havent been in a safe place for long enough to process things??? i dunno. maybe someday far away in the future ill figure things out

us when the weird woman who is weird and has said she is weird and has shown she is weird and literally wrote multiple entire shows and miniseries to show off how weird she is, is actually pretty fucking weird

You’d think that with all this bike riding and lifting children off the floor that I’d be even more hungry, but no; I have the appetite of a little tiny bird???? The fuck

I don’t like it

today in the wild I came across a phrase to the effect "...And this [pair of ethical axioms about what constitutes quality of life for purposes of discussion about disability and coma prognosis, based on the opinion of one person who has not ever been in a coma or disabled thereafter] suggests that maybe, just maybe, [relevantly comatose or recovering or disabled] people may have quality of life sufficient to make them ethically relevant"

that's ... not, um, normally considered to be what makes people "ethically relevant" in the world where all the people are and there's sunshine and grass and things, but, you know what, ok jennifer, A for effort! :) gold star for you, philosopher extraordinaire, moral lodestar for people unsure what to do with granny, paragon of ethical conduct!

[nonbinary-octopus]

It really annoys/bothers me when someone sends me a message on the work messaging app that's just like "hey [name]" or "I have a question about x" and then absolutely no follow up.

Why do you wait for me to respond before asking me the thing you need???

I get that they're probably following standard polite conversational procedures. However. This is not the face to face conversation those procedures were invented for. This is a message, which I may not see immediately, and furthermore, they may not see my response immediately either!

If, for example, the message was sent shortly after lunch break begins, then when I get back, I will see it. Were the message to actually contain the question, I could answer it then.

However, if you merely tell me you have a question, but not what it is, I must send a response asking for the question. And then wait for you to see that. And then when you ask your actual question, you must wait again for me to see it and answer.

Three times the waiting.

For no useful purpose.

I found your playlist for The Red Thread on Spotify, and I was so excited to see you had one with just songs from sleeping at last. I've been writing my own book for the last 5 years, and I have my own playlist with just his songs too! and his songs have many vibes for so many situations or emotions. Idk if this is weird, but I literally idolize you as a writer, so seeing this small thing we have in common makes me really happy😭

Yesssss Sleeping At Last! I was letting my TRT playlist play through the recommended at the bottom, not paying much attention, until... I think it was his song Earth that I heard first. And I was blown the fuck away, cause hello TRT vibes. And then Neptune played next and damned if that wasn't the most Jane-ish song ever

I'm only honest when it rains An open book, with a torn out page And my ink's run out I wanna love you but I don't know how

Then I saw he had Enneagram type songs and as someone who's wondered what Jane and Matt's type(s) were, well... all down the rabbit hole into a playlist from there. 😂

I think it's exactly what you said, his songs just fit for so many stories and characters and situations and emotions. They feel like story songs, like character songs, and he's beautifully poetic without it sounding cliche. I can absolutely see you having a playlist with his songs for your book, too! And I don't think it's weird at all, I'm honored, thank you so, so much! 😭 I'm also happy to say I feel the exact same way whenever I find out a writer I enjoy has something in common with me! Cause then you can be like

Reading my great aunts annotations and underlined words and finding her shopping-list bookmark stuck between the pages of books, I feel closer to her than I ever did and I wish we had talked more when she was alive but all I can hope for now is that she's happy that someone's reading her favourite books and thinking about her. I would be.
