things i am learning now that i’m finally actually watching avatar the last air bender part one:
1) not everyone is a bender 2) it does appear to be inherent to some extent, because katara seems to be partially self-taught 3) however, there is a learning element, because you can improve on your skills and the avatar has to learn how to master all four elements where i thought aang just had inherent skill 4) the element of the bender seems to always match the element of the tribe they’re in, which makes sense if they are taught by their tribe but raises some questions if it’s inherent. is bending ability passed genetically? what happens if two benders of different elements have a kid? i can’t google this because i don’t want anymore spoilers than i already have 5) uncle iroh is prince zuko’s uncle?????????? i thought he was like an earth bender who owned a tea shop this entire fucking time how did i go into this series knowing almost everything but THAT
i honestly thought it was an honorary title like he’s a nice old man who helps out all the kids so he just has them call him uncle
Let’s just do the poll we all want to see. Midwestern cities have often managed to survive 1900s urban renewal and keep their historic city centers. This makes them often amazing cities, so lets rate them. Grand Rapids was selected through public comment.
@zhanael Michigan, Do you know any other grand rapids?
Why the fuck did 3 Ohio cities make it onto the list but not Minneapolis or St. Paul. Literally what the fuck, do we need 3 cities from Ohio in the running? Do we even want Ohio?
Ohio sucks, I just wanted to use major cities, I simply forgot about Minneapolis
horse whose hooves are stuck individually in different colored buckets the horse seems a bit surprised but unbothered the sign of a well mannered yet perhaps empty minded horse or perhaps this is all a goof of the horses own design
I work at an equine hospital and for non horse people, there’s ice in those buckets for the horse’s feet. This is a common thing to do after a horse eats too much food, as ingesting high amounts of sugar causes inflammation in the hoof. So this horse is not just content in his buckets, he’s likely just enjoyed the greatest meal of his life.
it got lost in the sauce so hard that it had to put its feet in the sauce shoutout to a homie and a legend
I never want to hear conservatives go on about repressive censorship in China, North Korea, and Iran ever again
To be clear to those unfamiliar: these are the companies that libraries use to lend ebooks.
They are literally cutting off library access to minors.
If you are affected by this or other bans and restrictions in the United States, be aware that the Brooklyn Public Library is offering free digital library cards to anyone age 13-21 nationwide as part of their Books UnBanned initiative:
there’s a whole culture of mostly white women whose entire personality is “Don’t talk to me before I’ve had my coffee or ill kill you” and a barista’s job is to deal with those people before they’ve had their coffee
