What gets me about atla is if you really wanted to write a fic where zuko speedruns his redemption arc, what you do is you have him successfully capture Aang at any point during season 1. Like. Imagine.
Zuko brings Aang to the Fire Nation and Ozai's all proud of him and shit and is like "Ah yes the Avatar. Good work, Zuko"
and Zuko rides that high for all of five seconds before Ozai continues with "Now we shall commence the canon state mandated torture of the Avatar so he doesn't reincarnate but simply withers away in our prison system"
and Zuko's like "wait what"
and Ozai is just "Zuko now that you're sixteen and you're becoming a man it's time I brought you in to the family business of torturing children. Your pansy uncle couldn't torture a child to save his life but your old man is the best in the business, as evidenced by your own face. Why don't you take this metal poker, heat it up with your firebending, and torture the avatar a little bit? Go on, Zuko! Torture the child!"
and Zuko just stares at Aang for a little bit before he's just "god damnit I can't do it" and busts Aang out

'we transcend petty political tribalisms like left and right' is--not always, but much too often-- a marker that what you're about to read is unfiltered, high-octane, triple-distilled Turbo Fascism

always frustrating when you try to raise a point that is fucked up about Society with someone and they reply "it's always been like this". Yeah, and? Don't you want society to be better? "It's always been like this though" BUT THATS NOT THE POINT? ISNT THAT FUCKED UP THAT ITS LIKE THIS?

i love to make fun of notorious white woman Taylor Swift and all of her embarrassing attempts to appear deeper than a plate of soup.

“Scream if you have to,” is such a terrifying phrase to hear from Bruce. But I think the Batkids actually need to hear it — whether they’re getting a bad break reset, or having a wound cauterized, or something else extremely painful — it can be a relief to know you’re allowed to yell and make noise. Relieving to know that Bruce says it’s okay to scream.
