Revamp Of My Tumblr Yay! I Think I’m Planning On Just Sharing All Of The Thoughts I’ve Ever Had On

I want to write a narrative piece about censorship. When I was younger I thought it was something only in books, I never would have imagined that it would be something I would encounter in my real life. Why do people want to ban books? Books provide knowledge, they help us step into worldly perspectives other than our own. We hear stories, we learn, and we grow.

I read Fahrenheit 451 in eighth grade for the first time, and I was throughly shocked by the content. Why would a society be so afraid of books, and literature that they wanted to burn them. In my fourteen year old brain it felt like an act of immaturity, and completely unnecessary. Let the people read! Let them grow their horizons and read!

It wasn’t until I had read 1984 that I truly began to understand the point of government censorship. When I read Bradbury the year before, I was reading a required book for class, and my brain didn’t think much past the fact that I thought it was wrong. However while reading Orwell I really started to grasp at what was the reason and why it was so wrong that people were banning books.

I’ll probably come back to this later, but I am starting to write a narrative essay on this, and I needed a place to just blurt my thoughts.

reading fanfictions, appreciating fanarts, making headcanons and idolising them are no longer enough. i need to inject jegulus into my veins.

i just realized “embrace the probability of your imminent death” is a wyatt callow reference

KATNISS WAS THE SPARK THAT LIT THE FLAMES BUT HAYMITCH WAS THE FLINT STRIKER

Bruh i expected so many older characters but was still so shocked when they were actually there

sunrise on the reaping was one gunshot to the head after another but at least we got catching fire part 2 all stars

Too real my friend

writing? oh, i’m definitely writing. in my head. during the most inconvenient times. like in the shower or when i’m about to fall asleep. actual typing? no, no, we don’t do that here.

I just love him sm, always knew he was a sweetheart 😔🥺

my fav thing about sunrise on the reaping was when haymitch was like yeah caeser i'm a lone wolf 😏 i'm with the newcomers but i'm not WITH the newcomers, yknow? they call me a rascal. a rebel against the gamemasters. I scored a ONE and that is a THREAT. you do not want to mess with me 🙅

cut to him with like 20 kids following him around like ducklings, him hiding in his t-shirt, him letting a bunny guide him to safety because it reminded him of his girlfriend, and him making nightlights out of potatoes.

You, every night.
