It had been a while since I took a good old-fashioned “flipping off the camera” photo, but my new nail polish lends itself well to that, so I went for it.

[Things change people change,we change,we grow out of some bonds,bonds we once cherished so much,I tell you,even if it's not the same,I'll always have us in the back of my mind,our shared nostalgia. It is okay to let it go when it starts to strangle you,some things aren't meant to last,most things won't last,yet they turn you into the one you were always meant to be. I don't hate you,I never can. Hatred is something I despise, I'd always wish you luck and I will always miss the good times we had.]

Rusting bonds

The bond we shared

Was something to keep

For in the poison I breathe

Your ever-lasting taunts and avoidance

Yet sometimes a soft side slides

Reminds me of what we had

Our shared childhood

The mango stains and vintage photos

In the back of my mind

I remember your failed bangs

I remember how mean I was

To you

They made me it

Now I ask

If I were to see me

Would I be mean to me too?

My nurture was hatred

So is yours

You feed it everyday

And dump it upon others

Sympathy isn't your friend

Yet I can't bring it up to you

Is this the end?

I miss it,yet to remember

I was always left out,made fun of

Yet I stayed

I breathed in poison

I grew in poison

So I crave it yet

Even if it made me miserable

I crave it yet

Sometimes we grow out of friendships and love

And bonds start to rust

'Tis my sign to let it go

To let us go

And in clean and healthy environment

Thrive and grow

Re job change: I'm also gonna leave my work in the following months, I really don't want to because I like these people. But my boss is an insufferable piece of work, so...I gotta. It is never easy. But change is growth. (I hope so.) Good luck :)

yeah, no, my bosses are truly so against me that even if i can somehow convince them to let me stay, i have to live knowing they hate me and think i'm bad at my job. manifesting other opportunities ig... everyone manifest w me plz bc i rlly dk what i'll do if i become unemployed LOL

There’s a lot to say about NATLA but I just want to comment on the genocide scene since I haven’t seen anyone else say this:

The point of making it a sweeping battle where Air Nomads and Fire Nation were more closely matched was a shame, and made it feel more like established war than blatant genocide. It is obviously still genocide if a whole group of people defend themselves and die trying, but it felt like the director wanted to make it epic, grand, and powerful. Very Star Wars.

It’s much more heartwrenching to simply observe the aftermath. In the cartoon, Aang returns to the air temple after 100 years and says here’s where I ate, here’s where we played… here is our architecture, this is where animals and friends of mine made their home. We understand through Aang’s stories that these were not warring people. Some nomads could probably do a bit of combat, but that was not their way of life. It wasn’t a battle at all for Fire to erase this entire culture.

The original story is quick and impactful: two qualities the remake sorely lacks. All I saw in NATLA’s genocide scene was wasted time and a blatant lack of understanding for Air culture. I think the writers wanted the nomads to be able to hold their own against a threat, but it’s just not the reality. They were true pacifists and the Fire Nation’s genocide of them perfectly illustrates the extent of Sozin’s cruelty without the need for boring exposition or lengthy fights.

You really will always be the person you were when you were 16. Like it’s been a little over double that time, and here I am freshly obsessed (going on three years if we’re being honest) with Supernatural, long after most folks are done with it.

Revisiting it tomorrow but Rust (Swap!Pap) has the design that's changed the least since the start of the story, I think? (Ec-4o.verse related)

He's the kinda younger brother who can help his older brother keep his shop afloat even in a post-apocalyptic setting, and also spend his freetime learning to use a Sword made of Electricity because he can be a bit silly too.
