I am so pleased at how many notes are some version of “I don’t fear the science, I fear the corporations who control it” because that is EXACTLY the attitude you should have. GMOs can save us. Monsanto will kill us.
It’s Not a Plot Hole, It’s Just Something That They Opted Not to Spoon-feed You Because It Would Be Obvious If You Thought About It For 20 Seconds

It May Be a Plot Hole, But It Still Works In Terms of the Story’s Themes and Character Logic
vs.
Okay, It Is a Plot Hole, What Are You Going to Do, Cry about It?
vs.
All Works of Fiction Represent Constructed Realities and by Demanding a Lack of Plot Holes, You Are Improperly Importing the Rules of Objective Reality into a Subjective Creation that Must Be Judged Primarily on Its Aesthetic Merits

Dude, Just Come-up With a Headcanon Like A Normal Human Being
You could tell someone a non fiction story from history like it’s just a work of fiction and they would find plot holes in it, it’s inevitable no matter how well written something can be
i remember in steven universe people kept calling things plotholes when they really werent plotholes. The orb on the moon. The fact that ruby claimed pink diamond was shattered with roses sword. They called these things plotholes despite it was clearly just forshadowing for future episodes. Half the time plotholes arent plotholes, yall are just impatient and want instant conclusion to plotlines
teachers who punish their students for being imperfect and human need to like. resign lol instead of marking students as absent when they’re over 15 minutes late why don’t you ask them what their problem with getting to class is? why withhold marks from your students if they haven’t completed an optional questionaire? why be rude to a student and provide no constructive feedback if they email you about an assignment that’s due in a couple days & is going poorly? jesus fuck find another job
these teachers are the same kind that brag about how many students fail their class and lack the self awareness to realize that many students failing generally means a failure at teaching, not learning
This scene still breaks my heart each and every single time I watch it.
Azula was a terrible, horrible person. She would have set the world aflame and laughed over the broken carcass of her brother.
But she was fourteen.
She was so ruined and twisted by her childhood and by her nation, driven to insanity by the expectations placed upon her.
Azula was bad and yet I can’t help but feel so terribly sorry for her.
“I don’t have sob stories like all of you.”
SHE WAS FUCKING FOURTEEN WHAT
“My own mother….thought I was a monster. She was right, of course, but it still hurt.”
actually, i think one of the shows strengths is that they didn’t shy away from what a horrible tragedy this was. even though she was clearly a villain and did unspeakably awful things, this scene was still framed as sad. there was no celebrating- they just look at her sadly.
the music for the battle that leads up to this moment is sad too- it’s an epic battle, visually probably one of the biggest things done in the entire series, and they could have played it with thumping, energetic, dangerous music. but instead it’s quiet and somber. because the whole scenario is heartbreaking, and they know it.
i think the fact that a kid’s show had so much respect for it’s viewers and their ability to understand the complexity of this situation is what makes avatar great.
why when able bodied fans draw canonically disabled chair-user characters do they have the abled partner sitting on their lap? i would kill someone if they touched my cane or sat on me in my chair
THIS SHIT IS INFINITELY MORE ROMANTIC THAN SITTING ON TOP OF YOUR DISABLED PARTNER. THE TENDERNESS INVOLVED IN HOLDING YOUR PARTNERS HAND, IN BEING CONSIDERATE OF THEIR SPACE, IN MAKING SURE THEY FEEL SAFE AND LOVED. i’m not going to go as far as saying stop having able bodied people sit on top of their disabled partners but know i’m disabled and would never consider it. i would absolutely get hurt
i hold the same viewpoint on able bodied partners carrying their disabled partner for no reason. my body is a fragile thing, easily broken. it has to be protected even from people with the best intentions. meet me at my level instead of taking me to yours
I am Silver Tongue, I am an artist. I have many characters and you can check out my art in the art tag. I occasionally practice witchcraft though I don't do anything too complicated. I am girl 2 and don't know what else to put here.
