Some lipsyncing practice! As you can see, my MO for lipsyncing hasn’t changed much–find an emotional song and DO THE SCREAMY BIT. But this time I also wanted to try a little subtlety! And to experiment with some of the stuff I’ve learned at work! And it’s definitely served its purpose. :)

Things They Don't Teach You in School
•Lincoln believed white people were the superior race •Gandhi hated black people •The CIA brought illegal drugs into the country •Ronald Reagan was the devil •White people mutated from the Dravidian Albinos and would be nothing without POC
•9/11 was coordinated by the Bush administration •The laws written 15 years ago where pushed and backed by the kkk •Black people explored the world before white people where civilized and whitewashed history
•Christopher Columbus ain’t shit.
*The father of modern gynecology experimented and tortured black women during slavery for his findings. *The government was successfully sued for the murder of Martin Luther King, Jr. *The CIA introduced crack/cocaine into inner-cities across the US *The US had been sterilizing many WoC *In the Tuskegee experiments, the US gave STDs and other diseases, including syphilis to unknowing black men. *Japan was already in line to surrender when we bombed Nagasaki and Hiroshima *The US created the Taliban
Tea sipping shit. I re logged this earlier. But this list got longer
Jesus…
• Native Americans had to register to become American • Black Panthers once watched over the police to prevent unjust arrests and beatings • Native American children were massively murdered when schools got too full • Black people were in zoos • There were Asian concentration camps during WW2
*The World’s largest Great White shark ever recorded in history fed off of slaves thrown over the ships *Gay white plantation owners used to rape the slave men in front of the slave’s wives, children, and friends. They used this method to deter the slaves from revolting or any other unwanted acts. *Plantation owner would make a “deal” with the hardest working male slave to bore 10 children and he will be set free. Creating the stereotype of black men leaving and abandoning their children. *Harriet Tubman’s first husband, a freed man, tried to discourage Harriet’s mission to free as many slaves as she could he threatening to tell her over.
We were taught that about Abe but this is some important info
Male slaves would have their teeth removed - the front two to mark them as slaves if they escaped and the back ones for sale
one of the reasons for landowners to back the revolution was that England had abolished slavery and wanted to bring it across to the colonies - one hundred years before slavery was abolished
the US has been responsible for almost every major conflict of the last one hundred years and interfered in the others almost always for drugs or oil
the great depression was entirely caused by the newly developed aggro farming of the 1920s
the US accidentally sank several ships of Jewish refugees in WW2 including one mostly full of children
•in Africa the white men that were there to “collect” the slaves would give tribes guns. This was in order to have tribes turn against each other so the “weak” tribe members would be sent to America.
•During the Armenian Genocide, families would potentially be spared if the oldest daughter had her face and arms tattooed with blue X’s. These blue X’s signified that the Turkish soldiers could do anything they wanted to her. [I met a woman that this happened to, while she ended up having a husband and children and had some sort of happiness in life. It was hard to look at her. Not because of the X’s but by what happened to her because they were there.]
*Southern black people were convicted of “crimes” (walking by the railroad, looking a certain way) after slavery had been abolished and forced to do hard labor like working in mines for weeks without seeing the sun where they had to drink stagnant water sitting at the bottom of the mines, being whipped and killed if they ran away. A lot of black people were put in jail during the cotton season when men, women, and children were whipped and killed while working in the fields.
*Southern black people were enslaved in this same time period (after slavery was abolished) through imaginary debt that white people claimed that they had and they couldn’t pay it back because the person that they were “indebted” to set all the terms.
*The literally “Constitution” of the Confederacy says that the point of their nation is slavery. Don’t listen to people who say its about states rights.
*A lot of Republicans switched from being Democrats bc of the integrated military, the Civil Rights and Voting Rights Acts because they didn’t want to vote in the same party as black people. The literal founding of their party is racism.
because this has gotten longer
- Native children were rounded up by white people and put into boarding schools where most of them were brutally beaten and raped repeatedly while also being banned from seeing their parents ever again.
- White men would rape their way into native bloodlines just so they could be “legally entitled” to land, money and livestock that was reserved for natives.
-Native reservations were purposely established in places that were uninhabitable (i.e. poor soil, sparse food & water etc.) This was a way of forcing assimilation.
-Many cultures of PoC recognized more than just 2 genders before white supremacy came in with that basic shit.
-Ghandi also beat his wife
-America has a very long history of wartime sexual violence
Dear God
This is necessary and overwhelming
Just so we’re clear slavery is legitimately LEGAL if u are convected of a crime. Thats not even me paraphrasing either. Slavery was not abolished it, they only excluded people
All true.
I've seen you commenting about how Katara didn't care about Zuko dying by hypothermia in Southern Water Tribe, during Book One. However,she seemed legit worried/compassionate (from a safe distance) about Azula in Book Three. What do you think happened to make Katara more compassionate about such a powerful enemy?
Compassion comes with empathy, which comes from understanding.
Book 1 Katara didn’t know how to put herself into the shoes of her enemies, and had no reason reason why she would ever want to. Her world was divided neatly into good guys and bad guys. She was good. The jerk with the ponytail and the red uniform was bad, because THEY were all born evil and that was all there was to it. Also, the Avatar returned, and if he could only stop wanting to ride a giant fish for a moment, he would totally save the world.
But then Book 2-3 happened, Katara traveled, and the world was revealed to be much more complex than she ever imagined. Nothing was like as it seemed. The Earth Kingdom generals wanted to turn Aang into a weapon at whatever cost, Aang was the Avatar, but also just one kid with no End-the-war-right-now magic button, Ba Sing Se - the last true bastion of freedom - was ironically a giant prison.
Prince Jerkbender turned out to be an actual human being, who was missing his mum as badly as she was missing hers. Then he was a jerk again. His uncle saved her, even though she had ratted out his tea-shop. Friend or foe? The line was becoming more blurry.
Then Book3 Katara discovers the Fire Nation, which is full of normal, banal people. Some of them starve next to a stinky river and Katara can’t help herself, but care about them. The Fire Nation is not the land of faceless evil anymore.
But then something even more dramatic happens. Katara meets Hama and for the first time she’s confronted with pure evil within her own kind. She learns her truly tragic origin-story. How evil is not a linear progress, how villains are made.
The capacity of good and evil are inside everyone. And as Zuko returns, and tries so so hard to hold onto the light inside himself, Katara perhaps for the first time allows herself to go down and look at the darkness she bottled up and confront her own capacity for evil (and boy, there is rage inside her too, ready to turn her into the next Hama if she lets it).
She becomes Zuko’s friend, learns his backstory, his family, how he was raised - and she watches that utterly tragic and heartbreaking fight between Zuko and Azula. And Katara was going to do 100% anything she had to in order to save Zuko, but I think watching Azula in that state is still difficult - because now Katara understands that she probably wasn’t born like this. She gets the context. She knows that once she was just Zuko’s little sister, and they could have been a lot like Katara and Sokka had they been born into a different family. But they weren’t. And Azula grew up with Ozai for a father and despite all the worldly riches, no love or emotional support.
Azula’s fall is scary and unsettling, not because she’s evil embodied - but because she’s not. At the end of the day, she’s not that different from Zuko or Katara. And once you cut away the armor, the superiority, the confidence - Azula is just another screwed up kid who is hurting and is paying dearly not only for the choices she made herself, but choices made by others. Her innocence is another casualty of the war. And now, Katara doesn’t just see red uniforms, she sees people.
Me, trying to flirt

the comedy of him going “what do you bet its in my hand right now” while it rolls behind him cannot be done in any form of scripted media.

PSA
Because I have seen people trying to help birds hatch by breaking the egg shell, please do not. The baby bird needs to suck up the yolk into the belly. The egg yolk which is netted with blood vessels, if the baby bird hatches too early or someone forces it out of the egg, basically you have an internal *organ* hanging out with unprotected blood vessels, which will kill the bird. Do not think you have to help a baby bird hatch, they need the exercise stretching and rotating to break out of the egg to be fully ready for living outside. Also the shell itself will be dirty inside, coated with the egg skin, residues from the egg liquids and also drying up blood vessels. If you break the shell too early, guess what you break? The baby is tightly rolled up in the egg. If the shell is mostly broken and only bits stuck to the baby you can use a wet piece of cloth or a cotton swap to soak the stuck bit and get it off the bird. Do not peel it off. This is an emu baby, it comes from a dark green egg, this is an ostrich egg, one that has been cleaned of its contents and dried to be put over an already hatched emu to make this video. Emu babies, like all birds, come out of the egg looking wet and need to fluff out. There would be no space to smash the egg, there is literally no room in the egg, it is all filled by baby. Nice trick, but never ever try and help hatch a baby bird if you do not know how…hatching takes hours which makes the baby ready for the outside world. Helping a bird hatch is delicate expert work.
Making sure there isn’t any misinformed people
Yeah, I figured it was a trick, but I never thought about people trying to really get birds out of their shells. So don’t do that.
hey? shoutout to cumin. fucking love those funky little seeds theyve done so much for us

the only adjectives in the english language:
1. tender
2. feral
3. horny
for your consideration
Why is Jesus Feral
- Killed a tree because he was angry that it didn’t give him fruit when it wasn’t fruit season
- Destroyed a bunch of tables and chased the owners with a whip
- Blew up and then acted like he didn’t know nobody (Mark 3:33)
- Yelled at his followers for interrupting his nap to let him know their boat was about to sink
- Healed a blind man by spitting on him
- Explicitly ordered his followers to steal a donkey for him
And that’s just the highlights from Mark.
Now who is Tender/Mild and Feral/Mild
BABY Jesus, specifically, is Tender and Mild
like a good roast ham
