LMAO THIS WAS ME HARDCORE
Casting director: Do you have a monologue prepared?
Me: yeah *clears throat* Ashley katchedorian.... You were supposed to be watching the door...
Marius: one single look, and then I knew
Cosette: I knew it too
Cosette: It's like i have ESPN or something
So you have Tenzin and Unalaq vying to be Korra’s spiritual advisor, two adult men who both think they know what’s best for her, that what they can teach her is the most important thing she’ll learn, that she will be a good Avatar but only if she listens to what they have to say - and while there’s some deconstruction of the Obi-Wan going on here (that the mentor figure might not always be right, might not always be entirely committed to the protagonist’s growth, and might not always be teaching the things the protagonists really need), all of that goes out the window because you also have Jinora.
The small bookish girl who still races air scooters with her younger siblings, and has a burgeoning spiritual connection she doesn’t even understand yet, but who we already know is going to be instrumental in Korra’s spiritual growth.
what a spectacular subversion of the mentor/mentee trope. in a world full of crotchety men trying to tell korra what to do, she’s gonna learn what she needs to learn from a twelve-year-old girl i am so genuinely excited for this
tenzin and unalaq think they’re hot shit but i believe jinora can save the world
It’s not about men or women.
Nobody should ever hit anyone.
Nobody should ever rape anyone.
Nobody should ever murder anyone.
Nobody should ever beat anyone.
Nobody should ever threaten anyone.
Nobody should ever insult anyone.
Nobody should ever make anyone uncomfortable.
Nobody should ever touch anyone without their consent.
Nobody should ever steal from anyone.
Nobody should ever humiliate anyone.
Keyword being “should." In an ideal world, this would be the reality. However, this is not an ideal world and these things can and do happen, and they disproportionately affect anyone who isn’t a heterosexual white cis male. Arguing theory while ignoring what’s actually going on, all of which is perpetrated by people who don’t give two shits about theory, is willful ignorance and doesn’t solve anything or help anybody.
Saying things like this isn’t going to stop the people who already do these things, because they don’t care about how you think they “should" act. The first step to solving a problem is acknowledging that one exists in the first place, and the truth is that it is about men and women, whites and nonwhites, straight and gay, cis and trans*.
Quit talking about the world you want to live in and start making it a reality.
What is love?
Apparently only for white people.
Dude, you do realize this ad is Italian right? Those people are Italian, because it’s an Italian ad. Italian people are typically white. This ad is suppose to be about acceptance in THEIR country, why would they have models that don’t look like they’re from their country?
There’s always some fuck that is never happy
Welcome to tumblr
THIS IS WHAT I FUCKING HATE ABOUT TUMBLR. WE, AS THE LGBT COMMUNITY, ARE PROGRESSING, AND THERE’S ALWAYS THAT ONE FUCKTARD COMPLAINS SAYING THAT POC AREN’T INCLUDED JESUS FUCKING FUCK.
WOW WHAT ASSHOLES WANTING POC TO BE INCLUDED IN YOUR SHIT RIGHT
HOW RUDE OF THEM TO SUGGEST THAT YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT GAY POC EXIST
I just saw that fucking gifset with Craig Ferguson saying that men like to see their porn and women like to read it and I am so fucking tired of that stereotype like the reason a lot of visual porn doesn’t appeal to women is because it’s not made with them in mind. The vast majority of it is made by men, to be consumed by men, so maybe that’s why women aren’t lining up around the block to watch it.
If you don’t believe that visual porn can be appealing to women too then explain slash fanart to me because I’m pretty fucking sure that appeals to women more than men.

…but I will never see this..
Because in my head, Lu Ten was always someone to look up to when Zuko was younger..some sort of a role model..And he got incredibly proud everytime Lu Ten praised him.
I wonder how many years these two have in difference. But they both are younger here anyway, a few years before Lu Ten died:C
Also I have a really strong impression I like hurting myself and making myself sad…I wish I could draw this better
Oh God my feels.
he's wearing that hair piece
which is a friendly reminder that Lu Ten was the crowned prince
He would've been the Firelord but instead it was Zuko

...Eaux...: on korra and the removal of bending
pulpofiction:
i’ve been meaning to make this post for a while but here we go, i might as well do it tonight
[tw: discussion of rape, assault, violation]
The scene where Korra gets her bending taken away makes me uncomfortable and disturbed on a very raw, visceral level and it’s because to me, personally, de-bending reads like an analogy to sexualized violence and assault due to the similarities in power dynamics. (I am, right now, disclaiming a YMMV on this interpretation.) I just saw a comment that said Korra “fails hilariously” in her plan and it made me more upset than the rest of what was said in that post for these reasons:
The removal of bending, in the way Amon does it, is a fundamentally violating act that leaves its victims - those we see - traumatized, hopeless, and depressed. Witness Tahno, Korra, and Lin’s metalbenders.
It is a forcible violation of both the physicality and the spirituality of the victim. Their bending, an intimate part of their selves, is removed from them via a physical means that involves restraining them against their will.
It is not an act of justice but an act of control and power, much like how sexualized violation and assault is an act of control and power, to exert dominance over the victim: Amon does it to make examples out of people, not to dole out justice; his victims are targeted and selected for politically motivated reasons (first a crime lord, then a cheating, bullying pro-bending team, and then a councilman and his family) and defeated in shows of strength and force.
Amon removes Korra’s bending explicitly to control her: there’s no way he was initially planning on removing her bending in an abandoned storage room, away from the public eye. That would completely undermine his narrative of taking power from successively more public figures, entrenching his power over the populace. Instead he does it because she is out of his control, out of line with his carefully tailored plans - she ruins his rally and reveals his secret, and whether it was effective or not it still damages Amon’s public image - and she needs to be “destroyed”. Amon does it to put Korra in her place.
In short: much like how acts of sexualized violence and rape are not about sex, but power and control, I read Amon’s removal of Korra’s bending as not about justice, but about overpowering her and controlling her. The power dynamics are uncomfortably similar, whether or not this was Bryke’s intention.
How is this hilarious?
Honestly, I’m sick of narratives where the women have to suffer like this; I’m tired of narratives that are violent against both the minds and bodies of women, and I don’t care for the lack of sympathy for Korra. She goes through a horrific, traumatizing experience that almost literally destroys her - her sense of self, her perception of who she is, her self-love - and I have nothing but sympathy and love for her, for all her faults and flaws.
Your mileage on this may, of course, vary, but I find it almost unforgivable that a proud, strong, enthusiastic young woman protagonist had to be forced through such a destructive and vile experience in the name of character development.

KATARA THO
I think the most terrifying part is that Katara can't be sure just how desperate Azula is to take her out. As soon as Katara starts melting the inside of the ice, Azula gains some ability to move -- possibly enough that she could conduct some lightning, electrifying the water and giving them both a lethal shock. Katara has to trust that Azula cares more about preserving herself than she cares about killing Katara/letting Zuko die.
