Here’s the contact form for the single theater in Los Angeles that will be showing The Legend of Aang. It is a TWO WEEK RUN WITH ONLY THREE SHOWINGS PER DAY.

We are asking everyone who wants to see the movie in California to please message AMC and ask them to buy advance tickets. If enough interest is proven, they’ll be forced to expand viewing dates and times:

I also took the opportunity while embedding the image to make some minor edits! Remember! Fan-fiction is a living, breathing work that can be edited at anytime!

I had to turn this off, but it's something that allows Windows and anyone using your device to generate text/images.

If you’d like to help me with paying bills because America sucks, here’s the link!

Throughout the past year, I’ve been struggling with my physical health, going in and out of the hospital, out of specialty appointments, urgent care visits too many to count, and things all came to a head when, recently, I was admitted to the hospital for what was (at first) abdominal pain that had quickly spiraled into something worse.

Originally, I’d gone to the hospital due to my inability to eat — at that point, it had been over a week since I was able to stomach anything solid, and though I tried to push through it the best I could, I couldn’t handle it on my own anymore and decided to go. Night sweats, fevers, vomiting, diarrhea, the inability to eat without vomiting, dizziness, weakness, and so, so much pain. My blood pressure and heart rate were both through the roof, and the dizziness had become so much that I couldn’t do anything but lay down and wait for it to stop.

At this point, I was placed in a room (not admitted yet, but there was a lot of concern).

This was when the dizziness had shifted into a sort of bed-spins style situation. My eyes couldn’t focus on anything for more than a second before I’d have to shut them because I felt like I’d vomit if I didn’t. I couldn’t concentrate, and speaking was difficult. My arm, my leg, the side of my face, all of it went numb.

I was having a stroke, for the first time, and it was terrifying.

I was admitted immediately, brought into a room, and thrust into so many tests that I don’t know if I could name them all. I was placed on a morphine drip, given routine nausea medication to help abate the need to vomit, and anxiety medication whenever the fear started to eat at my confidence and left me feeling faint and awful.

Since admitted, I experienced several transient ischemic attacks, which occurs when blood flow to the brain temporarily stops. It would resolve itself within a few hours, but doctors kept me because they were afraid I’d have another big one.

So, while in the hospital they had to target both what could be the cause of the strokes alongside the issue I had with my inability to stomach food, and living in America, you know that it comes at a cost.

•Emergency room visit: $3,176

• Echocardiogram (to check on my heart, to make sure the stroke did not do it damage): $6,194

• CT scan abdomen with and without contrast: $15,413

• CT scan head without contrast: $3,240

• MRI scan brain with and without contrast: $11,463

• Ultrasound of the abdomen: $3,176

• Comprehensive blood panel: $1,386

• Morphine drip: $2,250

This doesn’t include any fees, being fed, other medications that were given (ones I take at home, that they had to supply), physical therapy, occupational therapy, etc. These are just the bits I can’t afford to keep up with.

Because I do not have steady income, and because I cannot work at a brick and mortar place right now due to these health concerns, I am asking everyone for help. If you can’t donate, sharing would be just as helpful. Anything is helpful. Anything would be really appreciated.

Here's how that works:

say you get a text from your internet provider, let's say it's Comcast (whom i hate). So you have this text that says it's from Comcast about your bill with a contact number and a clickable link -- could be real, could be a scam.

Don't touch anything about this text. Open a web browser and look up the customer service number for Comcast. Or get the number from the bill they send you. However you do it, get the contact info for Comcast from a trusted source, like an official phone directory or the Comcast website itself.

Get in touch with them using that information.

So. Let's run the example both ways it could go.

If it IS a scam: you reach out to Comcast and tell them you were contacted about a problem with your bill, they look you up in their customer database, and they tell you there is no problem with your bill.

If it's NOT a scam, you do the same thing, they look you up, and they explain the problem. In this case, neither Comcast nor the employees involved give a single shit whether or not you clicked the link in the text vs. going through their official website.

This works the same for the your bank, the IRS, Amazon, political causes, charities, everything.

If it's not scam they'll be like sure, here's the reference number. Then you follow the instructions above, call the separate number you find yourself on a reputable website and give that person the reference number. And they'll help you resolve the issue.

and just because a firm *does* exist, that does not mean that they've agreed to take on a case against you. If Goodman McLovin' Morgan & Morgan is actually a real place, you can call them to confirm if the threat of legal action is real, or if it's fake

It might take time. More than has already passed, but it will get better.
