One of my favorite parts of the Hunger Games was how, in the beginning, Katniss was jealous amd resentful of the townies for not having to work in the coal mines. Then, over time, she realizes they aren't the true enemy. Then she sees the other district kids as so much better off than she is, because at least they don't come from district 12. But then she realizes they aren't the enemy either. And then she hates the other victors, before realizing they have all been exploited just as much as she has. So the enemy must be the Capitol citizens, who benefit from the exploitation of the districts, right? Wrong again. They are just uninformed and pampered people who have been kept in the dark about the true horrors faced by the rest of the country. Most of them, when push comes to shove, are perfectly willing to help the war efforts.

And slowly, over the three books, all theses separate factions of downtrodden people start to see each other as allies instead of enemies, and that is what propells them to eventual victory over the true enemy, the government that tried to pit them against each other. Just fun, totally fictional things to think about that have nothing whatsoever to do with our current life.

I’ve been thinking about the title: ‘Taylor Swift: No Longer ‘Polite at All Costs’ and how when the call from kan*e was illegally leaked everyone pointed fingers at Taylor for what she said but no one ever stopped to think who was saying it and who was on the receiving end. she mentioned on the Variety article “I needed to get to a point where I was ready, able and willing to call out bullshit rather than just smiling my way through it.” adding to that how much she wanted his respect and how the person she was talking to is known for making her feel less, for always getting what he wants at all costs and has one of the most explosive, egocentric personalities in the world industry it is so obvious that he cornered her and manipulated her to be polite and that is such a men thing to do: make her uncomfortable and manipulate the situation to get what you want, use what society has wrongly taught them for years to sit quietly and politely, to agree with you because she is scared.... and then who ends up being guilty of being fucking polite? the woman of course... that’s why this title is SO important because it is so fucking relevant to taylor and to women in general!

I always thought the lyric “he’s so obsessed with me and boy I understand (boy i understand)” was just Taylor embracing the fact that he loves her so much and it makes her happy as hell........ but I realized that it’s *also* her saying she understands because she’s just as obsessed and in love with him as he is with her... love that for them!!!
