Hello, I'm Ahmed, 23 years old. I was studying computer science at the Islamic University in Gaza before the war. I aspired to build a brigh
Hello friends, I thank you very much for your continuous support, but right now I am in urgent need of you and your help. We are now in the holy month of Ramadan, which requires a lot of expenses, and there has been a significant rise in prices.
I also need to pursue my dream after losing everything. I need your support greatly—I need more than $1,500 to pay my university fees so I can receive my certificate and apply for scholarships.
You can find the images below the post.
Therefore, I am in great need of your help. I support my family, and at the same time, I am trying to achieve myself and continue my education.
"He glared at him with anger in his eyes, but behind that longing and sorrow over things left unsaid, a subtle but desperate yearning for things to be different, and with just a hint of roasted nuts right at the end."
This trading card was designed for my friend back in April. It is intended for trading with other OC cards or giveaways at local events. The small round bird is a pastiche of SoG.
So, we all know that Roku is a teacher at Chibi school.
We also see Sozin's dragon in the parking lot, so he must be a teacher/principal...
I'm not much into reading modern/college AU, BUT if someone wrote a fic where the students discovered that Professor Roku and Principal Sozin were exes and tried to match them up again, I would read it.
The fact that "Flamey-o, hotman!" was never actual Fire Nation slang, but a century-long prank by Gyatso, is peak Avatar lore.
Can we talk about young Monk Gyatso for a second? Because honestly, he is one of the best characters in the entire franchise. He’s essentially a chaotic mix of Sokka’s goofy energy and Toph’s absolute gremlin energy. He was constantly making up jokes and pranks, driving Roku completely insane.
The Chronicles of the Avatar books confirmed that this iconic phrase never existed in the Fire Nation. Gyatso literally made it up on the spot just to mess with a teenage Roku.
Look at their actual dialogue from the book
The Dedication of a Master Troll
Gyatso’s dedication was indeed unmatched. He didn't just forget about the joke; he casually brainwashed a young Aang into believing this was how actual cool people in the Fire Nation spoke.
And Aang, being the sweet, trusting kid he was, fully believed his master. When he met Kuzon, he probably threw a confident "my good hotman!" at him. Kuzon was undoubtedly baffled, but because he didn't protest, this only solidified Aang's rock-solid faith that this was the ultimate Fire Nation greeting.
The Generational Curse
The absolute beauty of this realization: Gyatso created a ridiculous greeting just to annoy Roku. A 150 years later, that exact same trolling phrase comes back around to deeply irritate Roku’s own great-grandson, Zuko.
So this "hotman" prank literally passed through generations just to end up annoying Roku's descendant. Never underestimate Monk Gyatso’s dedication to a bit.
If your solution to some problem relies on “If everyone would just…” then you do not have a solution. Everyone is not going to just. At not time in the history of the universe has everyone just, and they’re not going to start now.
truly and genuinely the spider-noir show feels like they genetically engineered the spider-man spin-off equivalent of crack cocaine in a lab for me personally. It's the 1930s. nicolas cage is 60 years old. he's a private investigator. He's a weird little freak. He's cracking bones you didn't even know existed. He watches movies to figure out how to be more normal. He is always getting knocked on his ass. it gets actually freaky and nasty with the spider bite symptoms. The suit is So Many Textures. It's the closest we've ever been to body horror. It's live action and in black and white AND the black and white looks good. this is doing the same shit to me the tom hardy venom films did
I've been thinking about the beast cookie's reaction to the reveal of how silent salt imprisoned them, many people point out how the beasts call silent salt cookie a traitor when they know what happened to silent salt cookie's people... but what if they don't know?
If i'm remembering that cutscene right, the only beast that we see actively going after Silent salt's people is Shadow Milk. Yeah, we see the individuals who serve the beast cookies, but outside of shadow milk...? As far as I remember, we don't have any explicit evidence of the other beasts knowing about what happened.
Seriously.... eternal sugar cookie doesn't seem like she would approve of a slaughter of people who could be taken to her garden, you can't be happy if you're dead... so... maybe the reactions from the beasts were genuine... we never did get confirmation that they all know what happened to silent salt's people.
It's June, motherfuckers, and you know what that means! Apart from firing a few rent-lowering shots to filter out the chuds from my following, it's probably also a good time to post a reminder that there are many strange ways to be queer, and this is one of them.
video transcript below the cut, may be slightly inaccurate, I tend to ad-lib when reading my scripts into voiceover
It's Pride Month, so if you'll forgive me I'm taking a two minute break from the One Piece, League of Legends, Marvel Rivals, Final Fantasy and Pokémon shorts to tell you… Sylveon is trans, Taliyah is trans, everyone on the Straw Hats is queer, there are no words to describe how queer superheroes are as a concept let alone how queer they all are individually, and here's a fun fact for you: Cloud Strife's story gets ten times better when you understand it as an allegory for a trans coming out experience.
As for me, well, I'm not trans, but I do occupy my own little space in the rainbow flags which looks like this. I am aromantic.
We are generally not as visible as many of our queer siblings, probably at least partly because it's kind of a difficult identity to even discover in yourself, you basically have to prove a negative.
But what is this thing, "aromantic"? Well… okay, let's say you're a straight guy, right. You know the way you feel romantically about other men? I feel exactly the same way, and then I also feel that way about women, and then also the same way about all of the other genders.
Now, aromantic often goes along with asexual, there's a lot of co-occurrence of the two, but not always, and that is my situation. Yes to sex, no to romance, which being a man, yes, I know, that just makes me the same as 90% of the men you match on Hinge. "Ha ha ha didn't realize "fuccboi" was an orientation now," I know. I get it. I understand. I have had all the same thoughts myself, especially when I was questioning.
Which is the difficulty with being aromantic, because in order to figure out that that's what you are, you have to prove a negative. I have never been in love, and I have no reason to think I ever will be… but what if someday I meet The One??? What if there's a special divinely designated perfect soulmate out there, just waiting for me, and one day our eyes will meet across the room and it will be love at first sight forever?
And like. I can't prove that won't happen, anymore than I can prove that there isn't a flowery pink teapot currently hiding somewhere in the orbit of Saturn. And frankly, if it did happen, I wouldn't be mad. Why would I be? I would have a soulmate! That's a pretty big W, I think.
But… I've had over thirty years to encounter someone—anyone—who can spark my romantic interest, and thus far, every challenger of every gender has failed. So either I am aromantic, or else you people have a skill issue.
Anyway, like anything to do with queerness, aromantic is a sprawling and diverse spectrum. You got your aroaces, aroallos, aroflux, arospikes, demiromantics, frayromantics, grayromantics, cupioromantics, there's a whole world of different experiences present under this umbrella. For me, though, just "aromantic" is fine. That's the broad label, that's the one I fall under, that's the identity I take pride in. Happy June!
