it's a lot of stuff...
People on this site remember 5 Nov 2020 either in war flashbacks OR in happy hits of dopamine every few minutes because gay love won and changed the course of history
I know the new Hunger Games book announcement is exciting. But in what world are we hearing more about a book announcement than we are about the bombing of 40 children in a UN school-turned-refugee shelter? These two events occurred on the same day. Only one is being widely spoken about in the media.
Let’s not forget why Suzanne Collins wrote the series in the first place. One night, she was watching TV, flipping back and forth between coverage of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and a reality-TV show. That's when she had the idea that would ultimately turn into The Hunger Games.
Please don’t let pop culture distract you from a genocide.

Obsessed with this concept
(the fact that the ravens annoy the wolves sksksnsjksn)
Honestly this is so cool! Padme being from Alderaan and being the sister of either Bail or Breha makes so much sense I'm shocked that that's not what ended up being canon. I mean after all Luke was placed with his father's family on his father's home planet why wouldn't that be the case for Leia?
I love the fact that what you thought happened when it came to Anakin's training added up being really close to what later became canon. I'll also be the first to admit that Padme dying when Leia is older makes more sense than her dying in childbirth but you know the force works in mysterious ways.
So I was thinking a lot about how Star Wars fanon must have changed overtime right? like New Hope came out in the late 70s and Empire Strikes Back and Return of The Jedi in the early 80s. I can't help but wonder what people thought of these characters when the movies were first coming out. Like before Anakin and Vader were revealed to be the same person what did people think happened between Obi-Wan, Anakin, and Vader? What did people think happened during the Clone Wars. How did people think the empire came about.
And then when the Vader/Anakin twist did happen how did that change/impact the narrative people had come up with at the time. How did they reinterpret Anakin/Vader and Obi-Wan's relationship. What did they think the Jedi Order was like? What was the theories they held about how the force worked? After it was reveled that Leia and Luke were twins how did the story fans crafted within their communities change?
How did people think Anakin fell to the the dark side? What do they think were the triggers to the change? What was pre-prequel Anakin Skywalker like?
Padme's name or backstory isn't even revealed until the prequels! How did fans fill in the gaps? What were the names she was commonly given? What did they think she looked like? What was her personality like? How did they think she and Anakin fell in love? When did they think it happened? What were the common ways she died (if they thought she was dead)?
So I guess what I'm asking is if there are any old school Star Wars fans on this hellsite please tell me!
All of the "Pro-lifers" that are celebrating right now I sincerely hope you or your daughters never have a Miscarriage that they cannot naturally pass, because a D&C is an abortion.
I hope you don't have a ectopic pregnancy, because the procedure that will save your life is an abortion.
I hope you don't have a still born baby that your body can't naturally pass because that induction is an abortion.
I hope you are never in a place where carrying a baby full term would mean your death (as mine would, my doctor looked me in the eyes and told me if I get pregnant again I WILL NOT MAKE IT, and fuck you all because my kids need a mom more than they need a sibling.)
I hope you don't find out your baby has a condition that will mean being alive for how ever long will cause them excruciating pain, that you don't have to birth your baby and watch them die a horrific, painful death in your arms.
I hope you aren't raped and forced to carry that baby to term no matter the detriment to your mental/physical health.
I hope you aren't forced to give birth to your abusers child, giving you no way out of the relationship.
I hope your 10 year old is never assaulted and have to carry a baby to term that will almost definitely will kill her.
I hope that you don't go to jail when they investigate your miscarriage and determine that something you did made it YOUR FAULT.
I hope you realize you and your daughters will die from laws you created.
I hope you realize the consequences of your actions because you may have to suffer through them.
