Zuko, finally finding his five year old adopted daughter after hours of searching: Sokka, why is Korra on top of the fridge
Sokka: she’s in time out
Zuko: why
Sokka: I just remembered the time Aang woke me up before sunrise and then wouldn’t let me go back to sleep and he may be our daughter now but that doesn’t mean he can get off the hook for his crimes
Korra: I’m in jail :D
Zuko: Young lady, this is non-negotiable. Now get in the tub
Baby Korra: okay [gets in the tub while bending all the water out]
Zuko: okay, that one’s on me, instructions were too vague
Sokka: she’s earthbent a wall in front of her door because she’s mad at us. Can you PLEASE get rid of it
Toph: sure [kicks the door open]
Korra: NO DADS ALLOWED IN MY ROOM UNTIL I GET THE POLAR BEAR DOG I WAS PROMISED
Toph, to Sokka: you didn’t tell me you owe the kid a polar bear dog
Sokka: oh come on I didn’t think she’d remember! Where am I even supposed to get one?
Toph: I don’t know Ponytail, figure it out [goes into Korra’s room and earthbends a bigger, stronger earth wall in front of the door]
That post about Edward from twilight is going to singlehandedly change the definition of “effervescent.” In like 3 decades there’ll be a note on the etymology of the secondary definition and it’ll have to cite that snail post as the origin of the linguistic shift
What’s it supposed to mean now?
Effervescent’s primary definition is a chemistry term referring to air escaping from liquid in foam, bubbles, or fizziness and the etymology connects back to the Latin verb fervere (to boil). There is already a secondary definition, which I’m guessing is what the OP of that post was using, meaning like “a bubbly personality” or vivacious, enthusiastic, etc. The idea of the post is that his character would look at something small, slow, quiet, (boring) like a snail and just interpret it as this lively wonderful being– which tracks with the common understanding of Bella as a character lacking much personality or liveliness and Edward finding her to be the same way. But, with the post being meme’d, the connotation is shifting from a sort of descriptor of bubbly personality to the idea of finding something incredible or awe inspiring (with a layer of irony added in that it’s something not usually regarded as incredible or awe inspiring). The usage and thus the definition is gradually shifting in a similar direction to “fantastic” or “awesome” where the original usage has taken a back seat to a much more common usage of hyperbole.
terfs do not belong in lgbt safe spaces bc they are a danger to trans ppl
terfs also don’t belong in women’s spaces because they are a danger to trans women
Terfs don’t belong
Not to be all “cis women matter”, but TERFs will also be a danger to cis women who are GNC or look “off” to them. This isn’t to downplay their threat to trans women, but just saying they’re a threat to women in general.
