The Victor Of The 50th Hunger Games

For all the heartbreak in Act 2 I am forever grateful that it clarified over and over that Jinx is Vander’s daughter

I’ve been a Vander Stan from day 1 and the amount of “Vi was Vander’s daughter, Jinx was Silco’s” posts implying that he didn’t care about her like he did Vi drove me crazy

You're right what was I thinking lmao (Thank you!!)

The ending they deserved :(

he's one of those big dogs that thinks he's a lap dog

I think the most radical thing the hunger games does is tell young people that the most revolutionary thing you can do is have unconditional love for humanity. Katniss throughout the entire series is guided by a deep sense of compassion for the people around her. It is what causes her to volunteer, to bury rue, to mercy kill cato, its why she tries to save peeta, why finnick telling her to remember who the real enemy is works, and even though her compassion for the larger world falters when peeta is kidnapped, it comes back when she visits hospitals and asks for mercy for other victors and ultimately, it is love and belief in a better humanity that makes her kill coin. Through it all, she maintains an unfaltering belief in the fundemental goodness of humanity, which is diametrically opposed to dr gaul's and snow's worldview. Peeta is even more unwaveringly compassionate

So the series tells young people that the most revolutionary thing you can be is compassionate. Let compassion drive your politics. Let yourself believe in the fundemental goodness of people. And i think that's deeply important in a world that touts the superiority of pure reason or logic, to allow yourself to be guided by something as emotional as compassion. Katniss everdeen tells us that your politics should be rooted in compassion in a world that thinks detatchment or cynicism is intelligence and i think thats v cool

Handala (حنظلة) is a symbol of Palestinian resistance. He was created in 1969 by political cartoonist Naji al-Ali, critical of Israel as well as Arab regimes.

Handala is 10 years old, the age Naji was when he was forced to leave his home during the 1948 Nakba, and is always seen from his turned back. Today, Handala is still 10 years old. On the day Handala is able to return home, he will then grow up and be seen from the front.

Naji died on August 29, 1987, victim of an assassination. Naji lives on through Handala.

Listen I know that none of us are huge Gale fans here

But I think we can acknowledge the tragedy of having one person you trust with everything you are, only to be complete strangers by the end

....I was crying over Yeti by Paris Paloma at 10 AM today can you tell?

I know I'm on a break from socials and being an artist. But your Hunger Games fanart hits a major home run for me. They're sooooo good! I love them so much. Keep up the good work and you just got a new follower! Yay!

Thank you!!! ❤️❤️ My hyper fixation hasn't broken yet so there should be more lmao

Happy birthday! 🥳🎂

THANK YOU!!!! 😭😭❤️❤️

Some people: The love story isn't the point of The Hunger Games series! The love story distracts people from the important messages about war and oppression!

Me: Actually, the love story is vital to the series because it sits at the heart of all the major themes.

Other people: Yeah! You're right! This series isn't a love story! It's a metaphor for those themes!

Me: 🤦‍♀️

Me: YOU DON'T GET IT EITHER!

These things are not mutually exclusive! The love story can be thematically relevant and a metaphor for philosophical concepts and still be a love story! Romance is not a dirty word! It's okay for a story to be about characters in love!
