#personal views

The world seems to be getting weary while leaving many decades behind since its existence. I believe many of us are experiencing time passing very fast these days, not to mention the unbearable heat, especially at night.

What is more, the human body easily gets tired even during relaxing time at home. Although this is just a personal view, it is obvious on social media, where people are talking about climate change and how fast the earth is moving in a day.

I wonder if there is any scientific and logical explanation behind these changes, apart from the causes that we are already aware of, such as open burning, war, recycling issues, and any other factors, or if it is just Mother Nature’s revolutionary traits.

So, we all remember when the Wild split up The Deweys, and the reasoning was "Hey, young talented players, they deserve play-off experience and we want what's best for them *cough* can't afford to pay talent *cough*," yes?

We, the carers and feeders of ridiculous relationships that are real and evident and exist and bring tears to peoples' eyes, saw that splitting up the boys did what the suits said, experience, experience, etc, etc.

So, with Ullmark to the Sens, we are breaking up a relationship that is real and evident and exists and brings tears to peoples' eyes, because the partnership has outgrown itself - mentee overshadowing mentor - and *cough* money *cough*.

And lo and behold, both Deweys ended up in the post-season, on shiny teams that did well.

What does this all mean? *shrugs* Who knows. It's already been stated that it's a one year deal, Ullmark isn't going to re-sign with the Sens. Buuut, he declined a trade earlier with his no-movement clause, so why now, why the Sens, why break our hearts?

Is he sacrificing himself for Sway's future (yes), or is Ottawa a really great place to live for a year (um, maybe?). Why do I pick the self-sacrifice flavour of explanation? Because of this: what is different between this trade and the earlier, refused, trade? The play-offs. Specifically, Sway's experience and performance in the play-offs.

Thus, like the Deweys, a great relationship that is real and evident and exists and brings tears to peoples' eyes ends because some players are just too gosh darn good, and other people think they should have all the good things. Even us, the carers and feeders of ridiculous relationships, because we did have it and we did care, and that doesn't change.

The new Avatar the last air-bender is not exactly like the original. However, what is important is that it had the core values of the show at its heart and I think they handled it very well. They had 8 hour long episodes to tell a 23 (I think) 20 minute episode series and yes they fudged the timelines a bit but the essential story was there and it was GOOD.

The pacing was immaculate, the characterisation of Zuko was so fricking good, the CGI was on point.

Could it have been a bit funnier? Yes

Am I a little sad that they erased Sokka’s original journey? Yeah

But they did it pretty well in my opinion by keeping his core values the same.

Maybe we are all too close to the show because we grew up with it, and now we are toddlers with the wrong plushie before bed. But at the core of its story telling it is faithful to the source material and authentic to the representation of each character. And for that I can never be mad at it.

"If you aren't religious, do you wish you were? Why?"

She needs to separate her person beliefs from work…

Wtf is she thinking? I obviously vehemently disagree with her stance, but either way, she shouldn’t be preaching this stuff at work.

A short reminder ... Racist, supremacy, nationalistic, homophobic statements, no wait ... any kind of insane hate philosophies or conspiracies are NEVER tolerable or rather acceptable!!! Making a difference because you like/love the person, spreading this dangerous rubbish, or not is pointless!!!!!!! More and more frequently, I wonder what is wrong with some people ... 😞
