The reality is that you will grieve forever. You will not ‘get over’ the loss of a loved one; you’ll learn to live with it. You will heal and you will rebuild yourself around the loss you have suffered. You will be whole again but you will never be the same.

It's not that people are incorrect when they say homeschoolers are weird, it's that they get the brand of weird wrong. Sure some of them might be "papa bade us never have mirrors in the house lest we give into the Sin of Vanity" but you're more likely to be confronted by an eleven-year-old carting around a huge collection of Norse Sagas in translation. She can spell synagogue. She plays rugby. She talks just a little bit too much like an adult in a way that is just slightly uncanny. She primarily watches TV from the '70s. She has an intimate knowledge of whisky because her parents tell her about it. She is wearing a mismatched shirt and skirt. That's the one bit people are spot on about.

Thinking about how Anakin canonically both touched grass and got laid and was still Like That.

I don't know exactly how to articulate this but... if you repeatedly show historical fiction women rejecting traditionally female skills/duties and doing swords instead, because swords is obviously the Most Important Thing, you are kind of implying that all the work that has been traditionally done by female hands for millennia was useless all along and not, you know, keeping civilization going. Because it's usually rejected not as a personal preference but as This Is The Important Stuff (male work) and That is The Dumb Useless Stuff (women's work) and that kind of bothers me. The message was supposed to be Vital But Underpaid and Underappreciated, not women's work is insignificant so let's all go do swords.

Sokka and Zuko get SO much funnier when you remember this is both of their first times talking to another teenage boy in years. Sokka had all the other boys leave the tribe when he was little and Zuko just hasn’t talked to other teenage boys. They wanna be friends but have absolutely no clue how to talk to other teenagers. I love them so much.

I think knights devoted to ladies and falling passionately in love with them is fucking sick as hell actually. Just also the knights should also be ladies.
