We Just get a Glimpse

24.i don't know what I'm doing with my life.

[to-be-insignificant]

I'm extremely frustrated with everything that's going on around me. I go to work and then I go home. That's all I do. I feel like I'm the only one taking any precaution to covid and everyone around me doesnt have mask on nor are they staying the 6 feet away when talking to me. I'm treated as an emotional punching bag work along with a manager that is an absolute bitch to work with. My department is short staffed and I got a talking to about staying 15 minutes over. In that same day she asked what else I had to do and reminded her that I had last week's shipment to still do and she had the audacity to act all surprised. There's only 2 people in my department and we both can't stay over. There's no logic to her thinking what so ever.

I'm mega frustrated at home because I'm not making enough money to actually furnish the place. My household chores keep piling up because the last thing I want to do after working 8 hours and then make dinner is to do more work. On top of this I'm also tired of having to ask my boyfriend to have sex with me. I hate having to remind him and then to not do anything about it. We're young and I guess I just miss being spontaneous. I miss dates and going out. I don't want to keep having to ask him, but I have no choice

This is a non coherent ramble, but I need it. I need to rant to a void because there is no one else that will listen.

how to tell if you’ve been playing your switch too much

[my-darling-boy]

I was having writers block and so I took a break and soon enough it was 3 in the morning and I had impulsively sewn together a tiny mouse you’re welcome

[my-darling-boy]

For those of you who asked, I have made a sewing tutorial on how to make your very own Peaches the Mouse!

[my-darling-boy]

I see people reblogging this with “to buy” but this pattern is free??? Someone even asked me “why don’t you charge money for it, it took you forever to put the document together” and I said “Not a lot of people have money and if they have some fabric scraps and a couple of buttons lying around they can make themselves a little mouse friend for free and that might make them happy and that makes me happier than receiving money???” Make yourself a liddol creacher! Heals the Soul!

No one ever tell me anything bad about the person who runs this account.

Ramblings of your not so average mid-twenties adult

Recently got back from having what was supposed to be a surprise birthday dinner for my boyfriend's oldest brother and it was one of the weirdest situation to be in. Why was it weird? Well everyone there had a family with elementary aged kids.

A table wasn't properly reserved and we waited at this restaurant for an hour. Boyfriend and I were just chill while everyone else was asking about the table being available every 15 minutes. Everywhere I looked there were kids. I know it's me having massive paranoia and anxiety, but being 25 its hella concerning because most of my peers are literally getting married and having kids. I try to remind myself that it's my life and I can go through it at my own pace and not worry about these social milestones. But some days when you think you're at peace all of sudden your anxieties come and nip at the very corners of your mind. Should we be looking for a house? Do we want kids? If so, when is a good time for kids? Should I travel before having kids and a house? Today these questions just popped up in my head during dinner. As it got later and later into the night it was clear. I don't want kids yet. I forgot how noisy and rambunctious they can be at a restaurant. I didn't want to be like the couple next to us worrying about their teenage son eventually being a girl magnet. I didnt want to be like the couple in front of us where the wife was expecting their first child and experiencing nonstop morning sickness and heartburn. I definitely did not want to be the Mom and Dad who were trying to keep their toddler son occupied (he was pretty content with eating his slices of avocado), but when it was gone oh boy was he not happy with anything. I don't want kids... well certainly not anytime soon. I still have to travel and start school again. I still have to properly take care of myself mentally and I don't want to do that while raising a child(ren).

The pressure to have kids wouldn't be so bad if not only my mom would stop asking about grandkids, but Buck's parents as well. His parents want someone to carry on the family name and my mom would love to be a nanai. We've expressed to both parties not to get their hopes up, because we want to spend our time being young and going on adventures. Why does it have to be work hard to play later? I'd rather be physically fit to travel to all these places rather than when I'm in my 60s with a bad back and improperly working knees. My mom understands, but I can hear the disappointment in her voice. Buck's parents are just a whole other topic that needs to be dissected in another post.

As for the house question we have to save up for a place because the apartment we are living in now is not ideal. I hear way too much of the neighbors business plus they are always smoking both weed and cigarettes indoors which just seeps into our apartment. Our apartment complex wouldn't be so bad if only the company that manages the property would just respond to any of the emails we have sent them. Traveling would be great considering I've never been out of the country, but again that's also something I need to save up for.

For now I'm content with hanging out with my boyfriend in bed watching Try Not to Sing videos..

The Good Place | Season 2 blooper reel

[tylha]

ok so i screenshotted this moment because i thought it was pretty cool

the first time we get to see all four elements working together for a common enemy, blah blah blah, but i started laughing because

sokka’s fucking boomerang. sokka threw a fucking boomerang at princess azula, renowned lightning bender and heir-apparent to the throne of the fire nation.

and sokka threw a boomerang at her.

[focusas]

I said it once and i say it again.

Azula considered Sokka to be the biggest threat in this group and countered him first. What this picture miss is Sokka sanding nearby. All members of this group unleash their attack at same time, but Azula reacts to boomerang first. If you watch this part in slow motion, you could see that Sokka’s boomerang was the first thing that would hit Azula and may even incapacitate her making her unable to continue to fight. So she had to counter in first. She deflected it with well placed shoot.

Then and only then, when there is no immediate threat, she starts to create her blue fire wall to counter other elements.

Lets think about this. How hard should you have to throw something to make it move faster that any elemental attack? Either all elemental attacks are slow or you are pretty strong. That said nonbenders with good aim and strong hands could easily overpower benders if they timed it right.(Aang got captured by Yuan archers who are all nonbenders.) Azula knew of this and acted according to it. She is talented bender and you may think that she should enlist other benders to help her track and capture Zuko, Iroh, and later avatar, but instead she uses her nonbender friend to help her.

Even if you have no bending you can still fight… and win.

[xenavitani-deactivated20210602]

Let’s not forget that on the Day of Black Sun, Sokka was the one in charge and Azula was no idiot Azula knew that.

When Aang, Sokka, and Toph all confronted Azula, she proceeded to make them chase her and waste their time. Azula is not only talented, she’s sly and smart as hell. WHO WAS THE ONE WHO SAW THROUGH THAT BS CHASE?

Sokka.

NOT ONLY THAT but after Sokka explains to the Gaang that Azula is just baiting them, Azula actually verbally attacks Sokka. Not through fighting, but through words, knowing not only that an intelligent person like him could only be brought down with emotions BUT that Sokka was the leader and if she could get him the stay, Aang and Toph would follow his lead.

Azula knew Sokka was their strength and took him down. WOULD SHE DO THAT IF HE WASNT A SIGNIFICANT THREAT TO HER!!??!

No. She wouldn’t waste her time and energy on someone she didn’t think was capable of actually getting in her way.

WHEN SHE GETS HER FIREBENDING BACK SHE HAS THE OPTION OF ATTACKING BADASS METAL BENDING TOPH AND THE FUCKING AVATAR WHO DOES SHE ATTACK?!?!

Azula never underestimated the power of non benders especially an intelligent one like Sokka. Sokka was a huge threat to fucking Azula on multiple occasions. 

Remember that.

[moomoobooboo-deactivated2020102]

Look at this spot on fucking discourse. LOOK AT IT.

[seyaryminamoto]

Just thought I’d drop this 

into the debate as well, (instead of actually fighting him she backs off, and who blames her? Sokka’s club looks like it could shatter bones…).

Along with this:

Scenes with Azula confronting Sokka are few and far in between but they paint a pretty interesting picture, don’t they? 

[transswordbian]

I mean, Azula’s friends/most trusted warriors were two non-benders. Mai was an expert with thrown weapons and Tai Lee was the only chi blocker shown in the first series, and she was able to take down half a groups of earth nation soldiers like that. Azula knows that non-benders are dangerous and she sees sokka for the genius he is

[avatrashh]

She’s knows she can take bending, she can redirect fire and she’s fought Katara a lot- but unlike Zuko she was probably never trained with weapons, she knows she has no defense to a sword or a club, and she knows that one of Ty Lee’s biggest advantage is that people underestimate her

[kasaron]

Let me sum this up;

It doesn’t matter how much crazy magic bullshit you have, a sword to the face is a sword to the face.

2 days into the New Year and it's in the shitter.

I'm literally tempted to adopt a cat just so my boyfriend's mom won't be able to visit again. The holidays by themselves are already stressful and having her here was the absolute worst. She was SUPER picky about food. Had to go eat out even though we told her multiple times we were broke. When we had her grandkids we had to do a family style sit down restaurant even though fast food would've been easier. She kept asking us what to do (even though you know we were broke and can't go out much) and got mad when we had no idea what was around. Buck mentioned that New Year's Day was our anniversary and he wanted to spend SOME time dedicated to me to do something. She heard differently and on New Years day she packed her bags and went to her eldest son's place.

Do I feel guilty that she left early? Yes and also no. It was such sweet relief when she left and I feel like that's where my guilt comes from. Her problems were literally self caused. She didn't want to actively talk about what was making her upset in the first place and when she did actually want to talk about it (she called once she was away from the house) she pulled, "it's like you don't even love me... I've never been loved"

YOUR SON HAD TO WORK. He comes home and he's tired. You can't expect him to devote literally all of his time to you.

She made this comment at the end of the phone call and I interpreted it as we are both competing for Buck's attention. I'm worried that this is a preview of what's to come.

WELCOME BACK! For those who logged off, this is what you missed.

1. @staff made a post pretty much saying “Your stuff isn’t getting deleted, just hidden from everyone but you” and “Yeah we know you hate the term “female presenting nipples” but we ain’t gonna stop saying it” 2. If a blog has a pixelated icon that means they got hit by the ban, you cannot view that blog outside the sidebar. You cannot even view their archive. Allegedly if you follow the advice in this post it’ll be fixed but only if it was an accidental flag (aka a real sfw blog) 3. The post Staff made including examples of what was ok to post. It got flagged. 4. Yes, the bots are still here. Yes they are still stealing posts and putting porn links on them. Yes there are still ads with stuff more sexual than they allow in posts. Yes innocent things are still getting flagged. 5. So yes, the site is still here and staff are still morons.
