yo…. when jet breaks in the tea shop and accuses zuko and iroh of beinh firebenders….

do you think any of the patrons looked at zukos scarred face - obviously done by a firebender - and immediately think jet was an asshole? like

jet: hes a firebender!!!!

patrons, thinking about the backstory they concocted for zuko and iroh where their home was invaded by firebenders and they barely survived with their lifes so they could come and have a peaceful life selling tea in a city the war doesnt touch:

Jet: He’s a firebender!

The Patrons to the Tea Shop internally: You fucking stupid, sir? I think you might be stupid.

Yes to all and to add one, tone policing. If they can’t think of any other way to dismiss what you are saying, they will critique the way in which you said it. No matter how you said it, they will say you are angry or aggressive.

White folks don’t want silent protests, just silence.

[scripturient-manipulator]

I’m so glad this person put ways to retort against common sayings because I am full of filler words and pauses and not being able to articulate things right and now I have backup words.

Man, I can’t imagine a black person getting away with this but it’s legal

[clarknokent]

Yup. So all those people that were like “just comply even if you did nothing wrong”, hell no! They shouldn’t be arresting you if you did nothing wrong. Especially how rough some of these cops are. More people knowing about this will cut down on these power hungry bad cops.

Reblogging again for quotes;

“Story affirmed the right of self-defense by persons held illegally. In his own writings, he had admitted that ‘a situation could arise in which the checks-and-balances principle ceased to work and the various branches of government concurred in a gross usurpation.’ There would be no usual remedy by changing the law or passing an amendment to the Constitution, should the oppressed party be a minority.

“Story concluded, ‘If there be any remedy at all … it is a remedy never provided for by human institutions.’ That was the ‘ultimate right of all human beings in extreme cases to resist oppression, and to apply force against ruinous injustice.’” (From Mutiny on the Amistad by Howard Jones, Oxford University Press, 1987, an account of the reading of the decision in the case by Justice Joseph Story of the Supreme Court.)”

“An illegal arrest is an assault and battery. The person so attempted to be restrained of his liberty has the same right to use force in defending himself as he would in repelling any other assault and battery.” (State v. Robinson, 145 ME. 77, 72 ATL. 260).

“As a practical matter one should try to avoid relying on the above in an actual confrontation with law enforcement agents, who are likely not to know or care about any of it. Some recent courts have refused to follow these principles, and grand juries, controlled by prosecutors, have refused to indict officers who killed innocent people claiming the subject “resisted” or “looked like he might have a gun”. Once dedicated to “protect and serve”, far too many law enforcement officers have become brutal, lawless occupying military forces.“

HMMM

Bringing this back 👀 For no reason in particular.

Afanc

The Afanc is a lake monster from Welsh mythos, it is said to be a combination of crocodile, dwarf, demon, and beaver. However, most depictions of this cryptid only include the beaver and crocodile portions.

The earliest sightings of the Afanc were around early to mid 15th century, it was written about by poet named Lewys Glyn Cothi, who described it as living in the Llyn Syfaddon otherwise known as the Llangorse Lake in Powys, Wales.

Location of said Afnac can vary, but the most depictions say it lives in lakes such as the Llyn Llion, Llyn Barfog, near Brynberian Bridge or even in the Llyn yr Afanc, a lake near Betws-y-Coed, which was actually named after the Afanc!

The Afanc was said to carnivorous, seeing its sharp teeth. It would pray upon anything and everything that would be foolish enough to fall into its lake.

According to legend told by famous writer, Edward Williams (otherwise known as Iolo Morganwg) It thrashed about in its lake for days until it caused massive floods and drowned every single person in all of Britain, save for 2 people. These people are known as Dwyfan and Dwyfach, whom the later inhabitants of Pridain descended.

It's name can be spelled differently depending on where you are and who you ask. Some have said it to be "avanc", some say "addanc". However, the most common spelling is in fact Afanc, which is another word for Beaver in modern Welsh!

As stated previously, its name is another word for beaver in modern Welsh, and some theorists suggest that this could be the earliest sighting of the beaver, which wasn't discovered until the 17th century.

Do you believe in the Afanc, or do you think it's just another crazy English folktale, let me know!

Adjule

(i do not own this drawing)

The Adjule has been a widely known cryptid for quite some time now between the Cryptid Community. So I guess I’ll be talking about it. If you would like to add anything, reblog and tell me!

For starters, the Adjule goes by many names. It’s more simple name, Bush Dog is a more popular one. However, in Northern Africa it is either regarded as a Kelb-el-Kela for the males, and Tarhsît for females. As I stated, this cryptid originates in Northern Africa, close to the Sahara Desert.

Skeptics have regarded this cryptid as an undiscovered variety of the African Wild Dog, which very well may be true, as a species known as the New Guinea Wild dog was said to be extinct for 50 years, but recently seen alive and well in 2016! So saying that it could possibly just be a mangy wild dog, is not out of range.

For people who are fans of the series “Resident Evil” may recognize this cryptid, however, it resides far out of the popular videogame “Resident Evil 5″, as a person by the name of Théodore Monode wrote about them way back in 1928. Accompanying this, the nomadic Tuareg people have also reported sightings of this cryptid.

Now however much data we may have on this cryptid, there is very little physical description of it. People who have believed to have seen it say it stands at about 2 and a half feet tall, and roughly 30 pounds. It’s diet is unknown, but seeing how it resembles the African Wild Dog, it is possibly carnivorous or omnivorous. The select few that have seen this have described it as “very different from a regular dog”. Whatever this may mean, is hard to tell, as the witnesses never gave much of a description other than its assumed height and weight, and its coloration, which ranges from a smoky, dark grey to a dirt brown, similar to African Wild Dogs.

Other theories surrounding this cryptid say it is possibly a phantom taking the form of a dog or wolf, however proving or debunking this theory would be near impossible, so its left in the air.

Do you believe in the Adjule, or do you think it is some form of African Wild Dog? Let me know!!!

(This is my very first post on this website and i went on like, the 3rd page of google researching it so thank you for reading down to the bottom!!!!!!)
