ringtoned:

suzanne collins is such a genius… the cultural phenomena of her series leading to the hanging tree house remixes, mockingjay being milked for two (bad) movies, the capitol-inspired makeup palettes, the halloween costumes, the explosion of the market for dystopia, the butchering of her characters and removal of disabilities, disfiguration, and racial tension + representation to sell more tickets, the extra gale scenes to fuel discourse, and the audience showing up to cinemas to watch what was pretty honestly marketed to them (the jacob vs edwardification of the symbolic love story and also to watch children fight to the death) it’s just so ridiculously ironic i would say you can’t write this shit, but she did write about it… in The Hunger Games published 2008

can’t trust anyone who criticises the mamma mia movie. like wtf are you even criticising. the plot?? the characterisation?? my brother in christ they put meryl streep, colin firth and amanda seyfried on an island, got them drunk and asked them to sing abba songs in the campest way possible that’s LITERALLY. IT. by this point you have to just assume that you’re the problem.

beauty and the beast has furry undertones and stockholm syndrome and it’s still one of the best stories ever. It’s about love persevering and love being blind and love making you human and love being trust

anyway. read Then Somebody Bends

@nekrotikon

the word for brain here is cerebrum, and it’s been literally split in two

I’ve seen wordplay like this before in Latin, but with compound words that are clearly made up of separate parts

but “cere” is not a word and neither is “brum”

you could translate it something like

“he split his br apart ain with a rock”

and it’s only slightly less unreadable than that due to freer word order

needless to say something I’d expect more from a modern experimental poem than an ancient epic

i just think it’s neat that odysseus gets put in a position where he has to kill his child to avoid going to war and he can’t do it and then agamemnon gets put in a position where he has to kill his child to go to war and he does it
