when you water down katara - remove her compassion, her ability to connect with others, her nurturing role, her ANGER and RAGE and DRIVE - you water down the very fundamentals of the story. you drastically and severely alter the core dynamics of the gaang, because katara was so important to the development of every single one of them. she was the rock and glue that held team avatar together.

katara was unlike any other character to ever appear on television; she was a young brown girl who took no shit from anyone, yet at the same time remained kind and compassionate and nurturing. katara was a force of nature; proud of her heritage and culture, burdened by the responsibility of being the last southern water bender of the water tribe, angered over the death of her mother and everything that the fire nation took from her, determined to help every single person in need, determined to change the world, angry and resentful because old men and rules and laws kept telling her what she could or could not do, thus, she was determined to restructure thousands of years of patriarchy that stood against her from accomplishing her goals and dreams.

I know people talk about this part:

The way Zuko’s whole face lights up when he sees that Katara came to see him. He’s probably hoping that this is his chance to privately apologize to her for the Crystal Catacombs.

But watching his expression the rest of this encounter, I noticed something else.

Even though Katara is (rightfully) being pretty aggressive and accusatory towards him, Zuko never looks angry at her. He canonically hates to have his past brought up against him and gets angry in other instances, but here there’s no anger. He just looks shocked and hurt, because he knows he messed up and needs to fix things with Katara.

The final look he gives her as she leaves says it all.

No anger or resentment at all. He doesn’t blame her for her feelings. He doesn’t want to “get back at her” somehow. He’s just hurt and sulky because he cares about what she thinks and doesn’t want her to be angry with him. But he shows that desire for her trust is unselfish when he doesn’t blame her for her feelings and accepts responsibility instead.

Anyways, tired of the takes that they’d just fight all the time if they were in a relationship and that Zuko has all this pent up anger against her. He just doesn’t.

So, I've made a playlist based on the story, that follows more or less the storyline and the chapters - or, at least, my impressions about it (and how it absolutely broke my heart. Seriously, I can't stop thinking about that fanfic).

It all started when I came through The Lumineers' song Cleopatra and the lyrics: "But I was late for this, late for that, late for the love of my life" and then I found myself with a whole playlist.

Hey Everyone!

A friend of mine recently had a devastating blow. Her entire bathroom flooded and the room had to be torn out.

Right now she’s living at home with her elderly mother after recent surgery so really needs help and can’t afford to lack hygiene trying to keep her wounds clean etc.

Please guys, if you could give anything at all it would be greatly appreciated.

If you can’t give anything, can you please share so we can get this as much attention as possible.

More often than not, you’re someone who likes to lighten up the mood by being funny. You’re the member that breaks the ice when meeting someone new, radiate positive energy, and give other people strength. You do things just so that other people can smile, even if it meant making yourself look silly. Thank you for all the times you made us smile and laugh. You’re the oldest member, yet you joke around just so that your younger members can feel comfortable around you. You apologize so you prevent arguments, you cook for your members, silently comfort them, and give them strength. And in order to do so, you keep silent about your own struggles. 

We know that you go through things that we can only ever imagine going through. You’re really strong. I really admire your positive outlook on life. You’ve sacrificed so much and worked so hard to get to where you are now. Some people may not see it, but you’re serious when you need to be. You’re hard on yourself because you want to present the best version of yourself to us, I understand. No matter how hard things got, you were always optimistic and worked even harder. I hope you can now see what an excellent vocalist and dancer you are, just like how ARMYs and the rest of BTS see you. We’ll always love and admire you, Kim Seokjin. 

sexworkers are good here as long as what they post is tagged. the gore thing is :// but like the person said sexworkers are supported here.

all of this. all of this is hot as hell. 

they actually have specific rules disallowing pedophiles and nazis+the terfs from the last screenshot.

dogpiling and harrassment and stalking is listed as a no go thank fucking god??

there is not one specific staff account as each member of staff has their own thing so it’d be most likely easier to get in touch with them

and the best part
