YALL THE AMISH CAME OUT ❤️❤️❤️

I was corrected on Twitter by someone from the community — they’re actually Old Order Mennonites! Although they follow that ‘plain living’ doctrine that the Amish do, they also carefully allow technology into their communities. Televisions are one of the few pieces of modern tech that’s allowed in certain Mennonite sects. The Mennonites and Quakers are no nonsense when it comes to oppression of any kind. Google more about them and you’ll quickly find out that it’s no surprise they showed up. They always show up.

after hurricane sandy, mennonites came through Far Rockaway, NY and rebuilt houses and Black churches that were devastated for free, the ones i’ve met have always been down to do real work for the cause

You’re gonna need to learn to draw your firebending from a different source. I recommend the original source… For earthbending, the original benders were badgermoles.

My favorite part of these is the “bitch, you really think you’ve seen the last of me?” smirk on so many of their faces.
