What if the "weird" district names in the Hunger Games only sound like actual things because the Capitol mispronounces them? So "Mizzen" is a part of a ship, sure, but the name Mizzen is actually pronounced in a different way than the word mizzen. Maybe the i is more of an ai or ie sound and the e is more of an a sound. Coral could have emphasis on "ral" with a longer sounding a or the Cor sounds more like cure and stuff like that. Bobbin and Wovey could have emphasis at the end of their names with a vaguely French tilt to the pronunctiation, whereas Velvereen could be pronounced more like Velvyrean? Facet could be ay instead of a maybe? And the one that started this all: Treech, pronounced with a rolling r and an ey sound. There are so many possibilities and I'm having so much fun.
#So for context: I was imagining the districts singing SugarDaddy from Roxy Dekker and my mental pronunctiation of Treech changed#And that got me thinking#Yes I have made this into a fix it AU#one of the mentors or some capitol weirdo makes fun of the strange names and they're like “well first of all at least it ain't pretentious”#And then they explain that yeah it's gonna sound weird when you mispronounce it like that#and then someone who likes languages gets interested and it becomes a whole discussion and then that bleeds over into a broader discussion#for the Capitol at least#the tributes aren't involved in that#Because how can the Capitol claim to be so much better than the districts when they don't even know basic stuff about them#Like- pronunctiation of words and names is a very basic everyday thing so if they don't even know THAT... how much else do they not know?#the ballad of songbirds and snakes#tbosas#the hunger games#10th hunger games#hunger games#coral thg#tbosas coral#coral tbosas#coral#tbosas mizzen#mizzen tbosas#treech#treech tbosas#tbosas treech#treech thg#fix it au#in the tags#facet#facet tbosas#velvereen tbosas

calling all pokemon fans
reasoning for ghost: ghost type is more associated with death. the undead minions of a necromancer would be ghost type.
reasoning for dark: the necromancer itself is (usually) not dead, unlike most ghost types. the necromancer archetype (usually) has a personality and aesthetic that matches dark type more than ghost type.
obviously there are other factors that play into it, like the other inspirations for a design, but for the poll pick the one that you would think it would be on average if there was a lot of different necromancer pokemon.
#ghost post#pokemon#poll#not sure how to tag#i am designing a necromancer fakemon and i was originally going to have it be ghost type but the design looks more like a dark type#and that got me thinking

mikami stuns in new gif (not a new gif)
omg earlier i was thinking. mikami would totally kill women whove had abortions. hed totally be pro life 😭 siiiiighhh because of the black and white world view........... the childish way of looking at everything.. he would refuse to try and learn the nuance. acknowledging a grey area would destroy him... i love it
#txt#ask to tag#rape ment#he compels me#i dont think hed spend much time thinking about it ever. but once he gets the death note. and once he gets the power#he would think about abortion. and hed decide its murder#sorry for the insane post. i was just thinking really hard abt this earlier for some reason#baby girl youre so... interesting#also idk#idk idk. because like would he think that aborting products of rape is murder..? would he allow that? idk... ill think abt it more#im by no means a mikami expert#obvi they wouldnt be on the top of his list to kill for kira. but... once all the actual criminals are gone. hed go to women whove had#abortions. and 'lazy' people who 'dont contribute to society'#and that got me thinking#would he kill cis gay couples bc they cant reproduce... what would mikami do about low birth rated#*rates#LMFAO#obvi hed abide by whatever tf light wants. but well... he did get kiyomi to say kira would start killing lazy people#so#mikami

People against piracy fail to realize that no, I can’t just ‘buy it.’ They stopped making DVDs and Blu-Rays. They’re barely offering digital copies for download. I am not spending money I could use for food or bills to pay for a subscription service just so I can always have access to a beloved piece of media. Especially not when the service will remove media on a whim without concern for how the loss of access to that piece will make its artistic conservation nigh impossible.
For example, I recently learned that Disney+ had an original film called Crater. It’s scifi, family friendly, and seems cool - I would love to buy it as a holiday gift for my little brother! But: it’s exclusive to D+ and THEY REMOVED IT LITERALLY MONTHS AFTER ITS RELEASE.
The ONLY way I can directly access this film is through piracy. The ONLY available ‘copies’ of this film are hosted on piracy websites. Disney will NEVER release it in theaters, or as something to buy, and it may NEVER return to the streaming service. It will be LOST because we aren’t allowed to purchase it for personal viewing. If I can’t pay to own it, I won’t pay for the privilege of losing it when corporate decides to put it in a vault.
So yes, I’m going to pirate and support piracy.
Edit: if you are able, use $5 you would otherwise use for a streaming subscription to donate to a GazaFunds campaign.
#edit: go to https://gazafunds.org/ and donate $5 you would otherwise spend on streaming services on a campaign!#ra speaks#piracy#media piracy#pirate to make hondo ohnaka proud#obligatory ‘don’t fucking pirate small authors/artists works wtf dude’ statement.#anyone who’s seen my media bitching before knows I’m a hype man for indie films this ain’t about them#this is about corporate streaming services killing physical media bc sales numbers are less impressive than number of streams#edit: USAmericans stop telling me to buy DVDs and blurays at Walmart. think outside your borders for a hot sec. fun thought exercise.#your experiences are not universal#edit: WHO GOT THIS TO 100k. I JUST WANT TO TALK (this post is my second to hit 100k woahg.)#in other news: fix your fucking posture. drink some fucking water. and go the fuck to bed if it’s late bc it’s for me rn. peace and light.

And why? Cultural norms? Personal schedule? “Cause I’m always late to everything”?
Bonus points: Region and/or ethnicity?

i say i like tragedies and everyone’s all like ‘why do you like sad stories? are you depressed?’ and never ‘how was the catharsis? was the catharsis fun?’
#i don’t know how to explain this to normal people 😭😭#for the record my coworkers didn’t directly question me on this#but i think i have vastly overestimated the amount of the population who is aware of like. Films.#NOT claiming that i have seen a lot - but i’ve mentioned three *REALLY* well-known films in the past four days#and got blank stares each time#the one of them was a REALLY good reference too… someday my top-notch association skills will be recognized#my first act as Mansion Acquaintance of the [redacted] Director will be to force everyone to watch a 40s romcom i didn’t even like#i’m getting off the point#the POINT is that It’s About The Catharsis

No but the Hunger Games really said "what do you hate more- the atrocities or the people who commit them against you? Because like it or not there IS a difference. If you hate the people who commit acts of pure evil more than you hate the acts themselves, what will stop you from becoming just like your enemies in your pursuit of justice? What will keep you from commiting those very same acts against THEM when the opportunity arises? And what then? The cycle of pain and suffering will never stop. Round and round it'll go. Nothing will ever change. But. BUT. If you hate the atrocities. If you hate the vile, senseless acts MORE than you hate the people who did them to you. If you are able to see that evil is evil regardless of who does it... The cycle ends with you. No, you may never get justice. But you will never be responsible for making others, even your enemies, suffer the same crimes you have. The atrocities will never be committed by you, never by your hand. And that's the way you change the world. It's the ONLY way" and that's why I am sure it will never stop being one of the most relevant works of fiction ever created
#the hunger games#thg#suzanne collins#katniss everdeen#peeta mellark#catching fire#mockingjay#“i hate my enemies for what they did but i refuse to become like them”#← one of the most difficult stances to take but nonetheless worthwhile#my boy peeta knew what was up#current events got me thinking

Saw someone on twt say they wanted to see Percy drawn like Yusuf Dikec and I couldn't help myself
#My art#Critical Role#Critical Role fanart#Vox Machina#Percy de Rolo#I have not drawn CR fanart in a hot minute but that tweet activated me like a sleeper agent#Also I think I got the little lore stuff right? I almost put Whitestone on the shirt but I looked and Whitestone becomes part of Tal'Dorei#So I think this is technically more right#Someone correct me if I'm wrong and I'll change it. because it WILL bother me if I'm wrong#Edit: I decided it's fine as is#Unless god himself (Matthew Mercer) comes down and tells me how the Olympics would work in Exandria I'm leaving it like this
