The leaves sprout, the flowers blossom and fall. The time of life and death will flow once again.

There’s something about how the philosophy of tbosas is that human beings, stripped down, forced into a coner, will become violent and barbaric in their behavior. They will revert to an animalistic instinct of survival and self-preservation. This is countered in thg trilogy, and is shown to be false in the games over and over again when tributes choose to be merciful or to honor the deaths of other children. Human beings aren’t just animals, we’re better than that, we’re capable of having morals and principles and sticking to them. We are capable of self-sacrifice, of loving someone enough that we can choose their life over our own. But then, at the same time, there are so many positive raw and animalistic moments shown in the books—Katniss going fully feral repeatedly when the people she loves are threatened or taken from her, Katniss and Peeta living in their den like mated animals—as if they are the jabberjay and the mockingbird. Peeta being bitten by Katniss after he put his hand on Katniss’s nightlock pill. It’s about survival, but it’s also about having a will to live, a reason. Nothing is black and white, there are good things about being natural and simplistic and even animalistic or feral. There’s still love to be found there. Survival instincts don’t make us violent, brutal animals. Selfishness and greed and the love of power does that…and those things are actually quite human in nature.

HEY ARTISTS!

Do you design a lot of characters living in not-modern eras and you’re tired of combing through google for the perfect outfit references? Well I got good news for you kiddo, this website has you covered! Originally @modmad made a post about it, but her link stopped working and I managed to fix it, so here’s a new post. Basically, this is a costume rental website for plays and stage shows and what not, they have outfits for several different decades from medieval to the 1980s. LOOK AT THIS SELECTION:

OPEN ANY CATEGORY AND OH LORDY–

There’s a lot of really specific stuff in here, I design a lot of 1930s characters for my ask blog and with more chapters on the way for the game it belongs to I’m gonna be designing more, and this website is going to be an invaluable reference. I hope this can be useful to my other fellow artists as well! :)

I would be the worst spy of all time because on one hand I overshare like hell, but on the other hand I also have THE shittiest memory so it’s really a lose/lose scenario for everyone involved.

why taking commissions for fanfics can KILL Archive of Our Own and fanfic culture as a whole

okay, so thing is, fanfics are allowed — as in they’re not banned — because nobody is supposed to be profiting off of copyrighted characters.

this is why popular site like Archive of Our Own is allowed to be up and running, because no one is supposed to be making money from fanfics.

the fact AO3 is allowed to be up and running, unfortunately, can and will most likely change if people start normalizing commissioning fanfics and making profit off of them.

because the second those big companies learn people are profiting off of their copyrighted characters, the target they will attack after you (in terms of legal action) is a platform like Archive of Our Own, which will likely ruin it all for everybody and every fandom.

imagine Archive of Our Own getting shut down because fanfics were banned because people were profiting off of them. (I know AO3 isn’t only about fanfics, but since it’s mostly known for fanfics, it will most likely get targeted and that will most likely mean it’ll get shut down if worst comes to worst.)

honestly. most people write fanfics in their free time for free out of passion and love they have for their favorite characters.

people read fanfics for free because that’s their source of happiness.

I’m not saying there will be no fanfics left in this world if they really are banned, because people will always find a way. but it WILL be so much harder having to sneak around and find a way to post fanfics without them getting removed at best, the authors getting sued at worst. and it WILL be harder for readers to find your works if we have to censor key words and character names in order to avoid getting caught.

it’s so much easier like this, we can freely post fanfics without having to hide and censor key words or worrying about anything.

no, I’m not making this post for the sake of those big companies. this post isn’t about “hey, don’t profit off of their characters”. it’s about “hey, don’t risk ruining fanfics culture as a whole for everybody by profiting off of them and putting a platform like Archive of Our Own in jeopardy.”

if you don’t want to live in a fandom without AO3, keep fanfics free.

Fandom Problem #4814:

Seeing older trans people leaving fandoms in droves because ignorant (mainly) Gen Z antis are screaming at people nonstop for not headcanoning every character as trans, or not having all gay ships, or not using the latest terms and jargon, accusing them of being phobic towards their own identities they've had for decades. I just lost another mutual who said f-ck it, and I'm probably close behind. I'm 44, I don't visit here to put up with abuse from 18-year olds with 400-blog followings.
