personally i think there should have been at least one episode where sokka collects aang and zuko and is like, “looks like we’re running low on supplies.  time for a GUYS-ONLY field trip.  three days of hunting and fishing and polishing our swords.  y’know, manly warrior stuff.  (aang, sotto voce: actually sokka i’m a vegetarian as you know–)  you girls have fun sitting around braiding your hair and talking about your crushes” and then the entire episode is just zuko and sokka lying around by a river, plucking blades of grass and staring up at the stars confiding in each other their deepest feelings and most secret insecurities while aang braids flower crowns, and whenever the screen cuts back to katara and toph and suki, they’re fighting and screaming and hacking away at river pirates and evil spirits and legions of assassins and hired mercenaries with swords.  you know, as girls do.
and when the boys finally drag themselves back to camp (they stayed up way too late discussing what true leadership really means and whether or not power always corrupts)  they find suki and toph and katara lounging around with black eyes and fresh bruises and bloodstained weapons and sokka shrieks, “what were you guys DOING while we were gone???”  and karata just shugs innocently and says in her sweetest voice, “oh, you know.  just girly things”

(Going off of the initial Japanese release dates as to which generation was current at the time excluding remakes that came out during that period. For simplicity's sake)
For example I turned 10 in 2007 so I would be starting in the Sinnoh region! Bonus if you tell me your partner Pokémon 👀 doesn't have to be one of the three starters!

Does anyone else see different US regions as “coded” as specific seasons?

Do you wanna play mermaids? Yay. Okay so my tail is light blue and I have ice powers. And I live in the Arctic sea and watch British sailors die horrible deaths while trying to find the Northwest Passage.

ALICE SISTY, about 1938. May I tell the tale of how a New Jersey gal gained fame for her 2-horse Roman jumping? In 1928 after obtaining her divorce in Reno at age 22, Alice Sisty rode a horse from Reno to her New Jersey home. On her trek of 3,000 miles, she sometimes slept outdoors in isolated locations and endured desert heat, snow at the continental divide, and rains. After the extensive national publicity of her ride, she joined Miller’s 101 Ranch Wild West Show. She later freelanced, riding bulls and broncs and performing trick riding at rodeos.
After months of training, in 1936 she became the first woman in rodeo history to perform 2-horse Roman riding jumps. For 15+ years, she was one of the nation’s highest-paid female rodeo stars and won numerous crowns in bronc riding as well as all-around cowgirl titles. Text and digital restoration by Gary Coffrin. A low-resolution eBay scan of a Ralph R. Doubleday postcard was my source file. Click or stretch image to enlarge.
— Some Curious History —
The car was Alice Sisty’s own Cord, one of only 205 model 810/812 convertibles made by Auburn Automobile Company during 1936-37. Front-wheel drive and retractable headlights were among its innovative features.
I am shocked that Alice Sisty is not in the Cowgirl Hall of Fame. She had numerous wins in professional rodeos. Her daring feats made her a headline performer at arenas in every state.
At age 17 in 1923, Alice Sisty eloped with Allen Zook, a Harvard graduate, after knowing him only one week. In 1928, she obtained her divorce in Reno, presumably because no state had more lenient requirements for divorce than Nevada.
In 1929, Alice Sisty married Earl Sutton Jr., a rodeo contestant. In 1932, she married rodeo star and western showman Milt Hinkle, who was 25 years older, on horseback in a rodeo arena. In 1942, she married her fourth husband, Henning Sommer, who was nine years younger than Sisty. She died in 1953 at age 47 after an extensive illness.
Alice Sisty was born in January 1906, but later accounts listed 1909 and even 1913. It was not unusual for female performers to claim dates of birth that were later than actual. Her fourth husband, nine years younger, was born in 1915. That may have prompted someone to list Sisty’s date of birth as 1913, closer to that of her final husband.
Alice Sisty grew up in an affluent New Jersey home, not far from a racetrack owned by her grandfather. Her remarkable life has never been chronicled in a book or screenplay, although she had extensive press coverage during her life.

Spin this wheel first and then this wheel second to generate the title of a YA fantasy novel!
(If the second wheel lands on an option ending with a plus sign, spin it again)
Share what you got!
