I know this is a deeply American thing to say but I am begging everyone to stay the fuck away from military recruiters. Especially high school kids. You are going to be seeing an unholy amount of them in schools or around schools or literally anywhere kids are known to congregate. THIS INCLUDES ALL FORMS OF ROTC. Stay the fuck away from military recruiters. As someone who’s familiar with entirely too many branches through entirely too many friends and family, including my partner, recruiters are authorized to say literally any fucking thing they think will make you sign on that line. They cannot and will not deliver on those promises. They need bodies for the war they’re pretending is only now starting up again. That’s all you are. A body. Stay the FUCK away from the military.

Reframing does not have to be positive. You do not have to go from “I am terrible” to “I am amazing.” Sometimes the most healing step is going from “I am terrible” to “I am doing my best.” Neutrality is still progress. It is still a shift. It is still a way out of the spiral.

I'm years into my recovery and I still find only neutrality helps, and maybe that's just what works for me.

I just realized, Zuko was the only person around to witness Zhao’s demise

I’m imagining like the gaang is just hanging around the fire a few days before Sozin’s Comet just

Sokka: “We’re really going after the Fire Nation again so soon after the Day of Black Sun… They’ll be far more prepared this time too, I bet. I wonder who they’ll send after us…” Katara: “Probably Azula. She’s already found us once since the Day of Black Sun.” Toph: “Maybe the Fire Lord himself? That would at least make things easier for us.” Sokka: “No that would be too convenient. They’d send someone else. Possibly Zhao. We haven’t seen him in a while.” Zuko: “????” Aang: “You’re right. Not since the North Pole.” Zuko: “??????” Katara: “That is kind of strange, actually, considering how good he was at tracking us up to that point. Do you think something hap–” Zuko: “Fish ate him.” Sokka: “What” Zuko: “Fish spirit ate him.” Toph: “Fish what” Zuko: “Spirit. Ate him. Didn’t wanna take my hand.” Aang: “…………….The OCEAN SPIRIT ATE HIM?” Zuko: “Actually I don’t wanna talk about it.”

I love these tags.

[captainkirkk]

Does.

Does Toph know about the whole Aang-turning-into-a-giant-ocean-fish-spirit thing? Did anyone tell her?

[derinthescarletpescatarian]

The Gaang play a game where they all sit on sand or something else that confuses Toph’s senses and tell her wild adventures from before they met and she has to guess which ones are true.

They also do this with Zuko, because it’s fun to watch him realise that for all the places he tracked them to, they were usually only there for bonkers reasons.

I love how NYC has done everything under the sun to deal with the rat problem and now they’re circled back and are like “Ok. We’ll legalize bodega cats. We need cats manning the food stores.” ancient problems require ancient solutions.

[searching-for-utopia]

Best part about cats is how they can still serve their ancient purpose. So many dog breeds exist for reasons that no longer apply, but not cats. Assuming you have a good mouser that is.

[byjove]

Another problem with dogs is that a lot of them are not allowed to do what they were bred for and people get mad at them when they want to do it instead of being a well-behaved little sweetie. Jack Russell terriers and dachshund are both excellent hunting dogs and can make superb ratters but people buy them because they’re cute and then get angry when they’re feisty and bitey and bored without stimulation. Like, I’m sorry your terrier absolutely eviscerated a rat in your kitchen and got blood everywhere when you weren’t home but he isn’t a bad dog and that is quite literally the job he was made for.

[byjove]

They’re ubiquitous across the city but technically illegal though the law is not enforced, probably because there would be large scale rioting if these hardworking New York citizens were fired from their jobs. I think they were banned for health and safety purposes but the city has reluctantly admitted having cats in establishments that sell food is much less of a public health nightmare than having hordes of rats and mice in establishments that sell food. It looks like bodega cats are going to be officially legal now, not that that matters to the cats as cats love breaking laws.

everything surrounding the id laws that just passed in Kansas is fucking horrible

[briannyssey]

[terramythos]

Hey Bri I hope you don't mind me sharing this on your post but in case anyone reading this is in Kansas or knows trans people in Kansas, Colorado is nearby and considered one of the safest states for trans & queer people. I know relocating is logistically expensive and challenging for many reasons, especially for people in a vulnerable situation, but if it is an option anyone is considering, there is a nonprofit here that may be able to help.

Steps These steps are intended to be a linear process to get you out of there and resettled here. But we get it, you’re a big kid and can do

Cancers from professional exposure Heart attacks from stressful work. Car accidents from long commutes after long stressful days Chronic illness from infections in crowded, unventilated work spaces

The damage of jobs is everywhere and it is systematically ignored.
