I know I KNOW its tiktok but like. Just watch until the end. eoh. she really wrote ttpd about kantniss n peeta. never nit thinking about this.
it’s actually really cool that taylor swift consistently just writes songs specifically to inspire me to write hunger games fanfics. like it’s just nice of her to do that honestly, she’s an icon for it
(ok on a serious note though i do think it’s bc like i was saying the other day, thg makes a really poignant and accurate observation about the abuse of celebrities and the price of fame which is why so much of taylors work maps so well onto it, bc katniss experiences fame and an invasive obsession with her love life in a very realistic way so it’s unsurprising that taylor swift, real person, experienced a lot of those same feelings irl. but like let’s be real it’s more fun to say taylor swift wrote us 31 more hunger games concept songs and now we get to make SO MANY NEW EDITS TO THEM)
it's been years and it's still genuinely crazy to me that the first two seasons of stranger things had this throughline where all the bad things that were happening in hawkins were directly caused by the us government and that they were excusing the awful things they were doing to their own citizens (children!) through cold war/red scare reactionism. and then in season three there was a secret russian base under the town mall.
