my friend who is training to be a 911 operator just told me that they are having to restrain themself whenever responding to training calls from saying “that’s illegal people can’t do that” and I find that so fucking funny

God forbid women do anything

personally i think it'd be super funny if erid was like, REALLY concerned about the ethical implications of "keeping an intelligent individual "trapped" in an enclosure where they might feel pressured to not speak up and simply do what other eridians tell them out of fear of death", so they have a whole ethics committee full of social workers and eridian rights lawyers and stuff. meanwhile grace is just like "hey my zookeepers, can you make it rain in my cage tomorrow. thanks <3"

Zuko was wrong, actually. (I think.maybe.) Because juice, like, comes from the moisture in thing thing and then you remove the non-liquid bits, whereas in (most?) tea, you infuse the leaves with water instead of relying on the inherent water. True hot leaf juice would be if you extracted liquid from a couple leaves and heated it up, which would be expensive and probably bitter but a fun way to do it

Thank you, Professor Sokka

Boiling things in water in order to transfer flavor and other qualities into the water is, however, the standard way of making broth. Therefore, tea is just a very specific kind of vegetable soup.

This is so sad. I'm on Cara btw, just haven't been doing any art lately. It's kind of like what Instagram used to be back when you still got real interactions from people. Worst thing about it is it takes like 5 minutes to log in, and sometimes I get distracted and don't make it.

i need less interpretations of toxic or abusive relationships occurring out of a lack of love, and more interpretations of love as a complex emotion that is not inherently pure. you can do horrible things to someone because you love them. you can love someone, but love something else more in a way that hurts your loved one. you can love someone deeply and be bad at showing it in a way that causes harm. i need more people to see how love can powerful and real, and not a guarantee of anything. sometimes it's not just obsession or manipulation or an attempt at control. sometimes it's also love, and sometimes love is the only motivation

my specialty is liking the same movies that 50-year-old dads like but in a way that would instantly send those dads into cardiac arrest if they heard me talk about them

Apparently the local university’s undergraduate entomology course sends students to catch insect specimens at the same place I like to go birdwatching, which explains why I saw three enormous frat looking dudes with tiny bug nets and overheard one emphatically say “bro BRO I told you we already have enough lepidopterans”
