Last Airbender: *shows Azula having a severe mental breakdown after finally tasting defeat after a lifetime of her dictator father manipulating her into becoming the perfect model for a throne responsible for centuries of genocide

The Final Agni Kai is great for a lot of reasons but it’s also a great example of how to write a fight scene because it was about more than who “won” the fight.

Zuko lost that fight, technically speaking. He took a hit for Katara and wasn’t able to defeat Azula within the bounds of the Agni Kai. He got knocked out and would have died if not for Katara. You could make the argument that Azula defeated her brother here but

She didn’t win.

It’s tempting to write fight scenes as a contest of might where characters try and deplete each other’s imaginary health meters until one of them comes out on top but the most interesting fight scenes, to me, are ones where there is more at stake. Where fighting is a method to resolve a dispute of ideologies rather than a contest of physical brawn. 

This was a fight for the soul of the Fire Nation and even though Zuko ended up flat on his ass, electrocuted, with a second scar from a family member for his troubles

This is where Zuko won. 

This is where the Fire Lord sacrificed himself for a waterbender and member of an “enemy” nation. This is where he wrested the soul of his country away from a century of imperialist rule. 

Yeah, Azula got him with her fifth level Lightning Bolt spell; big whoop. She won the Agni Kai but when has an Agni Kai ever meant anything? 

From Season 1, the Agni Kai has been shown to be a futile dick-measuring contest between firebenders. Ozai “won” the Agni Kai with his son, but defeating a defenseless child is not a victory worth winning. Likewise, Azula’s defeat of Zuko here was the end of their Agni Kai but it doesn’t matter. 

Zuko doesn’t need to beat Azula to win. 

If this was a video game, this would have been the end of Zuko, but it’s not. It’s the moment where Zuko wrests control of the Fire Nation’s destiny away from his father and sister and reunites it with a whole and peaceful world by intentionally losing to protect a friend. 

The Fire Nation fell when Azula knocked Zuko out. It rose again when Katara brought him back to life. 

Azula won the final Agni Kai but in the end, Zuko won the Fire Nation’s future

The only decent way to use white privilege

Edit: this is the first time anything I have posted has reached over 10k notes and I cannot be happier that this is the post that is getting attention.

Edit 2: now over 20,000!!!!! Keep it going - being a Karen could literally save someone's life one day

Edit 3: OVER 50,000 - keep sharing this!!!!

Disclaimer: I am not the person who did this, I'm simply sharing the screenshots to spread awareness. I am a white person and I do want to be an ally in as many ways as possible so please share as many ways as possible that both I and other white people can do this

As an independent voter I have something to say: If Joe Biden is the nominee in 2020, I'm not voting for him. To clarify: I am going to leave the top of the ballot empty while I vote in the other races. Joe Biden has not earned my vote. When I look at his racist, classist, corrupt record I come to the decision: I will not vote for him. Not now, not ever. I am convinced that he only has the best interests of the rich @$$holes who continue to ruin our nation in mind and that not only will he lose in the general but if by some miracle he beats Trump in the general his time in office would see no advancements in fighting climate change, fighting against money in politics, fighting against inequality, or getting rid of the economic desperation that led people to vote for Trump. Joe Biden would just have the way for another facist, possibly worse than Trump, or even Trump's corrupt criminal sons and daughters to take up the office. So no, I will not "vote blue no matter who" because that is a con and a scam. They think they can step on the left because the left has no where to go but fuck them. They aren't owed our votes. It's high time we reminded them of that.

two bros chillin in the tub give feet apart ‘cause they’re responsible and following cdc directives to practice social distancing and help flatten the curve, even though they’re young and low-risk, because this is a crisis of public health not an individual threat

it's 2022. donald trump has died in disgrace days after being impeached and jailed. my chemical romance's new album is coming out the same day as the new spiderverse movie. the lizzo and janelle monaé collab song is blowing up the radio. lil nas x has a verse in it. you and your partner have time and energy for dates after work after jeff bezos' assets have been seized and distributed to the public in the wake of his arrest for keeping employees in unsafe working conditions.
