*clutches fist* I just … the impact of the two children cannot be overstated … a girl and a boy, in some ways representative of all the girls and boys lost to the Games before their time … the way they are a noted synthesis of their parents’ features, the marriage of Seam and town, and the culmination of many other characters of the series with these same distinct features … the way they are described as dancing … and chubby … when their parents starved and fought … these little ones get to play … and be so well fed their mother calls attention to the healthy fat her toddler has … how Katniss and Peeta intend to teach their children how to be brave and intend to show them the good things people can do … but this isn’t something they’ll learn on their own by the harsh experience of cruelty and loss … their parents are loving and gentle and will guide them in ways their own parents could not or did not … these babies who are free to take Maude Ivory’s lullaby for granted … babies who have a father who wanted them so much, and have a mother who felt a joy so strong it tamed her most primal fears when she held them … her children … given epithets like their father … unaware of the fact that they walk on a graveyard … but also unaware, like their mother is, that a songbird and snake once walked here, and that with their existence, the legacy of the songbird’s nearly prophetic music has come to fruition and the snake is crushed … *help*
The way everyone I know is so comfortable and content to use chatgpt to do everything for them is actually fucking crazy. What do you mean you are using chatgpt to vent. What do you mean you can’t produce art without using chatgpt because you have no ideas. What do you mean you can’t write a basic fucking essay without using chatgpt. What do you MEAN you can’t do RESEARCH without it?!?!?!?!??!?! IT CAN’T DO RESEARCH. WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT ARE YOU ALL LOSING YOUR DAMN MINDS. You can’t have a fucking coherent original thought?!?!?!?! You’re not capable of thinking for yourself??? Oh my fucking GOD yeah let’s just destroy the planet because we’re too incompetent to fucking use our brains
An interesting demonstration of how the human brain works.
But also something of a lesson regarding perception, and the unreliability of subjective perspective versus objective reality.
You can be extremely certain about how you perceive the world, your "lived experience," that which you "feel it in my heart." But that doesn't mean it's actually true. And it doesn't mean we have to endorse it, or ignore or outright deny objective reality.
That's a "you" thing, not a "we" thing.
