“Harry Potter saved kids lit”
excuse you, do not pay such disrespect to our chosen leader, Firestar
Warrior Cats saved kids lit by being full of like ongoing murder and intrigue and weird cat love triangles. Do you know how many of these books I bought when I was 11? We have an entire shelf of these bad boys.
and where else would we get these lines??
what the fuck why were these cat books so intense like who hurt you kitty
actually Cats Are Just Like That
Zuko and Mai v Mr. Boomerang.
One of the reasons Avatar is one of the few epic fantasies I’ve actually liked is that nobody is above indignity.
This is a thing a lot of genres do, but epic fantasies seem to be impressively devoid of any sense of humor, and often cave to the temptation to make the villains or heroes so badass that nothing embarrassing or stupid ever happens to them.
In Avatar (the last airbender, anyway, haven’t seen Korra), everyone has stupid shit happen to them. Even Fire Lord Ozai has his moments– “No, Fire Lord Ozai, YOU aren’t wearing pants!” Azula gets covered in mud. Zuko has… well, getting conked in the head by a boomerang is only the beginning of the stupid undignified shit he experiences. (Though he still doesn’t compare to Sokka, the emperor unto perpetuity of Shameland.)
And I love that. Because in life, sometimes you get covered in mud. Sometimes you get conked in the head when you’re trying to be brooding and dramatic. STUPID SHIT HAPPENS TO YOU. And in real life, you still manage to be badass, or terrible, even in your moments of human frailty.
I wish I saw that more often.
Yes! This, so much. That’s definitively something I’ve noticed too, and I love it!
Actually, in a way, I think it’s kind of addressed in the show itself:
Zuko was publicly humiliated, punished and banished for speaking out of turn at a meeting. This was considered a personal offense to the Fire Lord: they were so strict and enamored with their “dignity” that the slightest misstep by a child could turn into some sort of great insult. And if you’re insulted the proper response is to defend your honor in Agni Kai, a duel to the death (with a child if need be).
In contrast, among the Air Nomads, it was okay to throw mud pies at the head monks and laugh your ass off. It was even encouraged: creativity, fun and humility were seen as the most essential qualities. No one was above pranks - neither being pranked nor even doing the pranks. And it didn’t mean they didn’t know respect - we know Aang had enormous respect for his elders and their teachings. It’s actually a much truer form of respect than what you could find in the Fire Nation, where fear kept you silent.
So, I think there is a lesson here, that maybe we should learn not to hold our dignity in such high regard, that it’s good to know how to laugh at yourself? And when ATLA has fun with its serious characters, it’s also a way to illustrate this idea - the show is all the richer by not taking itself too seriously.
I love atla meta
Sad encryption noises
Proposition 1: Vampires started out scary because contagious diseases, decomposition and sleep paralysis are all very scary.
Proposition 2: Vampires became sexy because the neck is a very sexy place to be kissed.
Person: My family has been dying, one by one. We dug up grandfather, and he was practically bloated with fresh blood! I burned the body, but still I dream of shadow creatures holding me frozen and sucking my life out through my neck.
Much hornier person: The neck, you say…
i’m weak for wholesome AUs. and modern clothing.

One time my rabbi told us, “imagine you had a box with a little bit of god in it. What would you do with the box?”
So we were like ?? “We’d protect it and keep it nice and clean and polished” and he was like “your body’s that box. Stop eating markers”
Every time I come across this post the last sentence smacks me in the face
nice way to indirectly say milokaross doesn’t give two shits about helping others and selfishly simply DECIDES not to have arms
clownfish be like "i know a spot" and take you to a fucking deadly sea organism
This post would’ve been a lot better if you didn’t say the f word. Grow up.
yes hello i am very sorry to hear of your lack of satisfaction. if you'll just follow me to the suggestion box its just inside here

Second part to previous surprisingly popular (thank you so muuuuuuch!) comic. Sorry it took so long >.<
so a bunch of headcanons because drawing this I had wayy too much time to come up with them ;P
Sokka is the only non bender to ever win a (team) bending championship. As a true older brother he had to rub it in Katara’s face. Just so she knows who is the true certified bending champion in this family ;P
He coincidentally also rubbed it in not-very-precise-at-creating-rules championship organizers faces so for next year tournament they coincidentally made more precise rules. Which pissed Katara off enough so that she postponed her responsibilities and took Sokka’s place (because he may be an idiot older brother but he is HER idiot older brother). Championship organizers quickly learned their lesson, changed back the rules and very nicely asked if maybe the funny-bucket-guy can come back next year.
Because balance is important in sports funtimes also. You can’t have 2 overpowered forces of nature in one team. Especially if one of them is there out of spite. But one (1) compact force of nature + one (1) funny bucket guy + one (1) serious theater nerd make a perfect and very entertaining team. Especially with their superior coordination in costume department.
Speaking of Zuko. He totally came up with some cool af but also nerdy name that clearly suggests who is behind the mask (which he doesn’t take off). Just to have the endless supply of entertainment at the expense of nobles trying to find polite way to ask if maybe The Fire Lord decided to take weekend off and indulge in some “lowly commoner unelegantly brutal excuse for entertainment”.
Their teamname is the Tyrannical Turtleducks
I’m sorry for reblogging this long ass post but you just won XDDD because all I can imagine when talking about evil turtleduck is
and I just can’t
I also imagine Zuko’s outrage of how could you but they are so cute. Which makes rest of the team notice that one (1) weakness so of course they vote that this will be their name now (democracy is a bitch, your firelordiness ;P)
you ever have a piece of bread that’s so good you understand the plot of les miserables?
opposite energy from tasting turkish delights for the first time and wondering wtf was edmund on
Edmund was on WWII sugar rationing.
toph was shown easily bending a meteorite that sokka gave her, meaning that toph can bend any dirt regardless if its from earth or not, meaning toph couldve definitely bent the moon and the only reason she didnt do it was out of respect for sokka and his ex gf
Toph doesn't know where the fuck the moon is
Her name was Quynh. She was one of us. The first immortal Andy found. They had been alone so long when she found her, Quynh had given up. THE OLD GUARD (2020) Dir. Gina Prince-Bythewood
Andromache of Scythia
I don’t know what kind of fucking genius suggested to Charlize Theron that she become more and more of an action star as she ages, or if she just reached a fuck it point of having enough star juice to realize her dreams in Hollywood, but whatever reason there is that I keep seeing her looking buff as shit and jaded as hell in monochrome tank tops is enough to give me hope that we are not in The Darkest Timeline. The Old Guard, Atomic blonde, Mad Max, this woman is 45 years old, wearing leather and doing her own stunts. Please give me another decade+ of her slowly getting more jacked until she, Lucy Lawless, Gina Carrera, and Linda Hamilton can give us some kind of super wild John Wick type of franchise that is 90% middle aged women doing hand to hand combat and 10% queer Romance.
