Fantastic Fungi (2019)
June 28 // July theme is all about cosmetics!! Used bright colors to remind me how it felt to need to fix myself with a light bit of make-up when I go out and enjoy outdoor activities we can't have now unfortunately.
Say what you will about Azula, but when her first kiss turned out to be a fuckboy who disregarded her feelings and only liked her because she was pretty, her reaction was to trash his party and burn his house down. She’s living out the fantasy of too many girls.
we've done outfits and hairstyles but which zuko smile was the best?
OKay, we can’t POSSIBLY rank those, so I have categorized them instead
the ‘loves his uncle with his whole heart’ smiles
the ‘receiving positive affirmation’ smiles
the ‘loving and appreciating his friends’ smiles
the ‘before everything went to shit’ smiles
the ‘his goth gf makes him happy’ smiles
the ‘being a sarcastic little shit’ smile
the ‘you stupid fucking pirate’ smile
the ‘this was probably Sokka’s bisexual awakening’ smile
characters that are dumb but not stupid
sokka
percy
please add on
So we’re all in agreement that making Toph a cop was a pretty bad move in hindsight. That leaves us with the question, ‘What should Toph have done instead?’ Well, I have an idea.
One day, Toph travels to one of the mountain ranges near the center of the world and then completely levels an entire mountain. She spends weeks, months, digging into the earth, shoving boulders thrice her size, meeting everything head on. Once she has a large enough chunk of land, she begins to build. Walls climb towards the clouds. Furniture is carved from stone. The detail is immaculate. When she invites the others to come help her, they can only gape, because she’s single-handedly built an entire multi-room mansion.
Sokka is able to set up a lighting system, reminding Toph that other people will need to see in the hallways. He’s also in charge of stocking the large kitchen, at least for the first wave of arrivals. Katara sews together fabrics for things like curtains, rugs, blankets. She also makes sure that the drawers are filled with various healing ointments. Suki checks to make sure that everything is safe for bodies of all heights. Zuko and Aang travel the world and use their influence to spread the word that this place exists.
What is this place exactly? Well, it has a name, but it can best be described as a combination of a halfway house and a foster home. A place that exists for any child who, like Toph, has to escape their abusive parents but don’t have anywhere else to go. Toph will take them in. She’ll make sure that they get ‘toughened up’ and that they’re not a bunch of ‘weak fuddy duddies’ from the things their parents did to them. And if an abusive parent comes along to try to take their kid back…I mean, really, do you expect anyone to get past Toph? Come on! Not that she’s the only one who fights them off. One by one, the other kids become confident enough to stand at her side, fighting away the abusive parents, fighting away the abuse. She raises them to be strong. She raises them to be confident. She raises them.
Some leave, of course. She’s Aang’s best friend. She knows that some people are just destined to travel the world. That’s why it’s also a halfway house. Any child can stay with her for as long or as little as they need. And of course that includes children who are escaping the law. What does she look like, a cop?
So, yes, some leave, but some stay. Some call her ‘Mom’. She calls two, ‘daughters’. The eldest daughter tells her that she wants to go be the Police Chief of Republic City. (”You’re going against everything that your parent taught you? I am so proud of you!”) The younger daughter tells her that she wants to do what Toph did, only to a new extreme, building an entire city. Toph is proud of her, as well. She’s proud of all of the kids who come and go, who stay and leave, who learn and grow.
Aang stops by to tell them all stories of his adventures. Zuko stops by to offer genuinely good advice about how they can grow into someone new, someone who isn’t defined by their past or the abuse they faced. Katara is everyone’s surrogate aunt and often stops by to heal the children with the worst injuries. Suki and Sokka teach all of the nonbender children. Iroh travels there several times a year to brew tea for everyone and offer his own advice. He always leaves after a few days, to travel back to Ba Sing Se, but that’s okay. For some, it’s a place to visit. For others, it’s a home.
And what does Toph name that home?
What else?
The Runaway.
Okay so we know that Hakoda and Iroh basically adopted the gaang after the war, but consider this: the Earth Rumble lineup realizing that Toph is actually this unsupervised 12 year old without positive parental figures and deciding that they’re all going to adopt her.
Consider this: after the war Toph goes back to Earth Rumble to be the champ and without Xin Fu, the Earth Rumble lineup goes on tour on their own and Toph goes with them. It takes a few months since she’s used to taking care of herself, but one day they’re making her breakfast and stuff and she realizes ‘holy shit I have six himbo dads’
look. i don’t think my stretch marks are beautiful. i don’t think they’re tiger stripes or natural tattooos. i don’t think my acne is beautiful. i don’t think the bags under my eyes are beautiful. i just think they’re human. and i don’t think i have to be beautiful all of the time in order to be accepted and loved and sucessful. i don’t think every small detail of my outer appearence needs to be translated into prettiness.
fun fact: this POV is actually called “body neutrality” and it’s SO MUCH more accessible/realistic for a lot of people. it’s based on the idea that the way we look is the least interesting/important thing about who we are, and that our bodies are worthy of respect regardless if they fit the mold of the current beauty ideals.
June 23, 2020 // I just cut my hair with my mom's help and I just want to shout LIBERTY from my heavy hair 💜💖✊
Looking at that Zuko hair post and seeing how young and soft-faced he looked in S2 (that horrible bald ponytail merely gave the him the appearance of maturity in S1, I won't budge on this) makes he realize he didn't start growing into his long narrow face until S3. Damn.
@nothing-more-than-hot-leaf-juice you’re the hair style expert, so maybe you should take this one?
Okay... let’s investigate the journey of Zuko’s hair/face (spoiler alert: the hair isn’t the reason he has the long and narrow face, it’s the fact that he never eats right. Zuko has a bonkers metabolism that isn’t helped by the fact that he’s starving for a good half of season 2.)
Here we see the progression in the first half of season 2 (episodes 1-13). At the beginning of the season, Zuko was coming off of 3 weeks of near starvation after the North Pole and hopefully spent some time actually eating food and getting some sleep, which is why he starts out the season with a rounder face. The next few episodes consist of Zuko not eating nearly enough and getting close to starvation, so he’s got all the bones sticking out. He doesn’t take breaks while he’s traveling and prioritizes feeding his ostrich horse over feeding himself. When he reunites with Iroh, he seems to be eating a little bit more here and there but they didn’t really get a good meal until the ferry ride to Ba Sing Se. Kid needs some soup. Stat.
Next let’s look at the second half of season 2, specifically the Ba Sing Se era Zuko. Now this is a kid who is eating some soup. Significantly less gaunt looking. Not literally starving to death. Drinking plenty of his uncle’s tea. Iroh is taking very good care of his nephew and it shows.
Kick off season three, starting a few weeks after the season 2 finale. We can see that Zuko has been eating enough and by the eclipse, he looks more like he did at the beginning of season 2 by the midpoint of season 3. The few episodes focusing on his inner conflict (The Awakening, The Headband, The Beach, and The Avatar and the Firelord) show him having a sharper jawline. From that one Dramatic Shirt Rip Off scene in The Beach, we know that Zuko is still underweight. It’s not until the episodes where he’s shown becoming more comfortable with himself in one way or another (Nighmares and Daydreams where he’s acclimating to palace life and just chilling with his gf and The Day of Black Sun where he’s made his decision to cut himself off from his family) that his face rounds out a little.
Finally, we come to the second half of season 3. Our favorite kid has a more pronounced jawline but we can see that he’s not on the brink of starvation. From the beginning of the Ember Island episode we saw that he had put on some muscle and was skinny in a healthy way, not in a literally starving way. He’s grown into a strong kid and eating on a regular basis with the gaang, working out by practicing firebending, but also taking some much-needed breaks (something the gaang realizes the value of) all contributed to that.
In conclusion, Zuko’s metabolism is all over the damn place and it is not helped by the fact that he spent a whole season not eating properly. Zuko’s face frame changing in season 3 was not only the result of his hair shaping his face, but was because he was finally getting enough soup.
Today I realized that he was so starved not because he did not have any food at all but because he gave it to his ostrich horse so that it wouldn't die on him while he was travelling. I'm so happy s3 Zuko finally got enough soup.

If you've reached this far into my statement, thank you so much. But there is so much more I want to say while I have this little moment of your attention. Even this may be considered an act of terrorism, if the Anti-Terrorism Bill will be passed.
Terrorism, by the definition in the bill, is essentially any act of creating and "spreading an atmosphere of fear", be it in real life or on an online platform. But that's too vague!!
It's exactly this vagueness that poses a threat to anyone voicing out opinions that oppose the government. I can simply make a joke about how the government is not prioritizing mass testing of the people, and it can be counted as terrorism, subject to unwarranted arrest (no due process).
This law violates Section 4 of the Bill of Rights which states, "No law shall be passed abridging the freedom of speech, of expression, or of the press, or the right of the people peaceably to assemble and petition the government for redress of grievances," (freedom to call out the government if they are doing bs of the ruling of the country).
If this law is passed, that's it for all the critics of the government. No fair investigations and equal treatment, for this law may be abused and used to target only those that oppose the government, since they decide who are the terrorists and what acts are deemed terrorism.
As a scholar of my country, privileged enough to be aware of the atrocities of those in power, I took it upon myself to inform this (little but) very supportive community of this deplorable step to a fascist government. No. There are no sad emojis and feelings for this. Only anger. Because our government has come to this and it will become worse once this law is passed.
