Ok, but like, am I the only one who thinks that bloodbending isn’t bad? I see all of these posts about how brave Katara was to avoid bloodbending and how great of Aang it was to outlaw it and how it reflects poorly on the Zutara dynamic that she bloodbent in front of Zuko but like ???????????

NO bending is inherently bad????

No one gave two shits about airbending being used to suffocate the Earth Queen or Bolin fuckin LAVABENDING, aka able to MELT PEOPLE down to nothing. Those alternative forms of bending aren’t intrinsically bad, even though they COULD be used for evil.

The same technique for suffocating someone with airbending could be used to resuscitate someone who wasn’t breathing. It could be used to help a newborn baby breathe. 

Lavabending can be used just as much for environmentally-beneficial reasons as it can for mass destruction.

Hell, even lightning bending was fine in the ATLA and LoK universe, but somehow bloodbending isn’t?

Can you imagine how quickly their healthcare would’ve advanced if Katara had been given the opportunity to use her abilities the way she was meant to? Hama only used them for violence because she spent her whole life trying to SURVIVE. It was all she knew.

Katara is a CARING bender. Her healing bending would’ve gone up 11000000000 points if she had learned to incorporate bloodbending. She could’ve learned how to heal blood illnesses, mend bones, prevent frostbite,  mend actual tissue. Katara could’ve invented MODERN SURGERY.

But somehow HER form of alternative bending is the only bad one?

Capitalists: It’s human nature for a small number of individuals to take control of the planet’s fresh water supply and demand that people pay in order to use it.

Actually, yeah, everyone should have the right to a meal, housing, and the ability to have an income. These shouldn’t be privileges.

Please help my roommate and I stay in our apartment (aka please help us get back on our feet or somewhere cheaper so we’re not couch hopping and losing our jobs)

Alright I’m gonna have a better more simplified status about this tomorrow but I am probably going to be begging for PayPal donations so I and my roommate can have a place to live and not be homeless come July due to both being too poor to have savings

Please keep an eye out for a better post tomorrow

Long story short is no other job will hire me as a near college graduate with no car, and my current one keeps finding ways to cut me hours and keep me at about $400 a month, and anyplace to rent out cheaper or not is always deposit and first month’s rent, which I don’t have the cash for or can save for in that amount of time 

Why is this a problem? My rent is going up since I’m losing two roommates in June and will be $500 minimum minus the couple utilities I have to pay I have no car, I don’t have much disposable income that isn’t budgeted to food already, and same goes for my roommate who’s trying to stay so we can both keep what little jobs we have because even moving into a friends to do so compromises them in their small spaces and moving back a half hour with any family devious me of getting a way to work 

I’m also highly unsure of getting another roommate or two in at least on short notice but I’m working on it here for sure during my spring break and I am going to look no doubt, and I have been looking for a second job but I’ve been fruitless on my endeavors because no one wants to hire a college student no matter how close they are to being done, I’m I’m going to have those bills to pay much sooner than later

I have a PayPal donation button at the bottom left of my blog and or please use my school email at jstacho3@kent.edu I have to start looking for other help come tomorrow too so please if you can help me spread this around or donate if you can! I don’t usually like asking for help but I need help to get us on our feet and I’m at a loss on what to do right now other than ask for help

If you can it’d be much appreciated! Otherwise thanks for your time!

Waiter asked Latina women for “proof of residency” before taking their order

A waiter at a Southern California restaurant has been fired after asking a group of Latina women to provide “proof of residency” before taking their drink order, the Washington Post reported Sunday. 

On March 11, Diana Carrillo visited Saint Marc restaurant in Huntington Beach, California, with her sister and two friends. 

In a subsequent Facebook post, she recalled that the waiter had explained, “Yeah, I need to make sure you’re from here before I serve you.” Read more. (3/19/2017 12:14 PM)

Let me tell you what happened to me an hour ago:

So I’m at the bus terminal and this guy (who’d been following me and hovering over me for 10 minutes) comes up to me and says “hey beautiful. Can I talk to you?” So I said “no thank you.” He goes “I just want to speak to you, though.” And I said “yeah I know that and I’m not interested in talking to a strange man at a bus terminal. Please leave me alone.��� So he stands there watching me. Finally he says “listen, there’s no need to be difficult. I approached you politely like a gentleman so I don’t see why you’re saying no. Now just let me speak to you.” I said “nobody’s being difficult my guy. You asked a question, I gave an answer so we’re done.” Then he says “yeah but the answer you gave me made no sense. Why don’t you want to talk to me? You don’t know what kind of person I am. You’re judging me before you know me. You’re being ignorant and prejudiced so”- Just then this other guy who’d been sitting close to me said “my nigga shut the fuck up! I saw you following her and stalking her like a fucking animal or some shit, like you didn’t think she didn’t notice? She’s probably scared of your predatory ass and I don’t blame her. Mans need to understand you don’t follow girls and shit. That shits corny.” So the guy goes “yo, mind your fucking business.” And the other dude says “nah because I see you harassing this girl and as a man this becomes my business. You thinking you were polite doesn’t mean a girl has to speak to you. Be nice because you’re nice, don’t use that please and thank you shit and think somebody has to speak to you. You’re not a “gentleman if you don’t respect her. Take the L and go catch your bus you fucking creep.” So the guy starts swearing and then walks away. The guy who’d defended me is like “you okay tho? Like real talk I don’t really like men because of shit like that. They’re fucking predators man. I do what I can when I’m able to for women because you don’t deserve to be hunted.”

This is literally how you do it.

For those who wonder: Cultural appropriation is when somebody adopts aspects of a culture that’s not their own.
