We Do Not Like The Concrete Tomb.

[vendal-construct]

This is our most popular post and we've seen more than one person tag it as "unreality." We understand why one might think that but we assure you: it was not.

These facilities chew you up. They suck the life from you and grind your body to dust to extract every ounce of profit they can.

These places destroy the body, the mind, and the soul.

[rezdragon]

Usually I save comments like this for the tags, but I must add how much I fucking love this.

As someone who works at UPS, this captures the hopelessness of these jobs. Just endlessly busy, grueling work that wears on your mind and body. Meanwhile, the people who receive the fruits of your labor don't even think you exist, or even worse yet, blame you for the destruction of their wares (when it's not even our fault most of the time).

This speaks to how invisible UPS, FedEx, Amazon, USPS, warehouse workers in general are to the public, and how those companies want to keep it that way. There is a cost to "fast and free delivery", and that cost is the emotional and physical toll of the people, actual real fucking people, working these jobs.

They're also dangerous, in case you didn't realize. Amazon warehouses have had to evacuate because bear spray got into the HVAC system. At UPS, I have a "Death and disembowelment" insurance because a 60 pound box of furniture comes down the chute at incredible speeds due to its weight and could break my bones if I'm not paying attention. You can also get trapped inside of trailers, buried behind mountains of packages or even jammed up against your wall because the brake on your rollers is broken. I've had packages show up to my door with drops of my coworkers' blood on them.

There is a cost. This is a reality.

for real tho it feels exhausting that ive seen this whole "woman should be allowed to abstain from X beauty standard" -> "i perform X beauty standard, am i evil? do you think im evil? please forgive me i came up with a dozen excuses 🥺" since like 2015 (and i know its been going on longer than that) like girl thats not the poiiiiint

[strawberry-crocodile]

look me in the eyes. repeat after me. "i face societal pressure to perform this beauty standard. i should not face that pressure. i conform to this standard. i am rewarded for performing to this standard. i need to respect women who do not perform this standard. this is not about whether or not i am a sinner for wearing makeup."

my controversial opinion is I don’t think Zuko was confused by “my first girlfriend turned into the moon”

[kyoshi-lesbians]

he was there during siege of the North. he infiltrated the spirit oasis. he has an uncle who studies spirits and the spirit world. he watched the sky go dark then the moon suddenly reappear like everyone else in the entire world did. and most importantly he watched zhao get eaten by a giant godzilla fish spirit.

[kyoshi-lesbians]

his entire life since he saw that beam of blue-white light in the south pole has been ‘this day has already been so goddamn weird’

[edgar-allan-possum]

The only really new information was that that was Sokka’s girlfriend

[library-graffiti]

Important opinion in the tags that I need to have be part of the post:

[clearascountryair]

Also, Iroh was there? He literally watched Sokka make out with the moon spirit. And you want to tell me that a romantic sap like him would not have immediately told Zuko about this romantic tragedy? Please, Zuko has known about this for ages, he just knows that this is not an acceptable situation in which to say “yeah, I know.”

[terriwriting]

Sokka: “My girlfriend turned into the moon.”

Zuko: “I know.” “Yes.” “She sure did.” “Uh huh.” “Tell me something new.” “Are we still talking about that?” “That’s rough, buddy.”

[alexseanchai]

[image: tags by samwisethebold: #it’s not that he doesn’t get what sokka means #it’s that how on earth do you respond to that]

[uberguber89]

When you put it like that, this is actually a legendary display of tact on Zuko’s part
