Wow those moves look like someone who’s childhood best friend was an airbender

…Shit, you’re right. 

That spin he does. That is an airbendery move. 

Literally the exact same move Aang pulls when he gets off his glider (cant find a gif but like… I promise)

This shows attention to detail was unreal.

Even the fall backwards! That looks like the exact kind of thing a fun loving Airbender kid would do while showing off gliders and airbending proficiency.

the best benders in this show tend to be the ones who adapt elements of other bending techniques. Bumi has some airbender-y movements, Zuko and Iroh use some Air and Water movements, even Katara tends to use some earthbender looking moves when bending ice

Meanwhile Toph just took earthbending and cranked it all the way up to 11.

Everyone else: The spice of variety! The four elements make mine stronger! Ballerina time!

Toph:….meTal….bendy bendy

So someone said this

which is awesome. Unfortunately they’re ‘prolife’ which means I can’t - on principle of being a decent person who values living human beings and bodily autonomy and, you know, scientific fact - give them a platform.

But otherwise holy crap that’s a mood.

Also, reminder that Sokka, a non-bender, learned ALL of the different nations’ fighting styles.

A valuable lesson to you maybe.

Reblogging people’s avatar theories isn’t supporting their political ideologies. It’s not giving them a platform. You always give credit where credit is due, even if you don’t like the person.

So here is who said it

And before you spout I’m anti science or some nonsense because of this, liek you did above, I’m literally a biologist.

@keyhollow why would they even bother mentioning that blogs political beliefs? I bet you almost no one would have actually gone to their blog to go find out everything about that person, so if anything was going to give that blog a “platform” they were by hijacking a non political post to virtue signal their own beliefs which they just wanted to make absolutely sure everyone knew. Like?

Intoxicated by the righteousness of virtue signaling I guess?

@keyhollow oh damn you’re right i mean whats the point of being such a great person if you cant signal off to everyone what a great person you are, valid.

This site sometimes i swear😂

ugh.  I’m reblogging this for the good Avatar analysis. 

*megaphone* where is the upchurned earth that came up when he sprang out?

"Free speech is freedom from punishment from the government, not from consequences from the public".

Fun fact: various governments have taken away freedom of speech based on public opinion/outrage. As in these countries can punish you for merely offending someone.

That's where we're headed. That's why people are so adamant about letting people voice their opinions, even if we disagree. Freedom.

They’re also complaining the school admin didn’t give them water during their sit in…… buddy the people who’s offices you are occupying have no duty to provide you with the supplies to stay there

I’m a believer in sit-ins. Big fan of them. But you need to bring your own supplies.

Imagine being so entitled that you think you're entitled to support from the people you're protesting against.

Still my fav story like this

I think the workers stance was 'we fully support your right to protest' and then they walked out and closed up shop just like they would any other day.

Don't take my support for your right to do a protest as support of your protest or any feeling of obligation toward you the protestor.

Entitlement. It means they werent really ready to do a protest. They arent children. You made a decision to protest. Plan for it. Plan how you will feed yourselves, clothe yourselves, and deal with struggles. What you dont do is glue your hand to the floor on someone else's property and demand they treat you like a hotel guest.

I cant take any of their protests seriously when they do that.

Ok first yes 100% sounds like a ransom note second why your manager's house, Picking it up at the restaurant I understand but if I got a facebook message telling me to pick up my stuff at some random house I would think it's a set up to get murdered, Hope you have a night/day.

My suggestion was to have them pick it up at the restaurant... A suggestion that was ignored.

My manager's reasoning is that she had weeks to come back to the restaurant and didnt. So she would habdle it herself on her personal time. And since it was her personal time, she decided the location, time, and conditions ("you have one chance").

She really just needed to word it better. All of that could have been made much more...digestible had she just worded it better.

it’s so bizarre when animated American films are set in a certain location and then only certain characters have the accents of that place. It makes no damn sense!! like

WHY IS SHE MORE FRENCH THAN THE REST OF THEM???

WHY ARE THESE GUYS MORE SCOTTISH THAN THE KIDS??

(also, aren’t they Vikings or something?)

To be fair, almost everyone in Ratatouille does have a French accent. The real question is why Linguini and also all the rats sound intensely American

If it was just the rats I’d say it’s because the movie can be interpreted to mean that the rats understand but don’t necessarily speak human languages so the rat dialog isn’t literally taking place the way we see it but that doesn’t explain why Linguini has a rat accent

LINGUINI HAS A RAT ACCENT 

Do we ever hear like

For sure that Linguini grew up in France tho?

It could be possible he’s just an American immigrant

I mean his name is Alfredo Linguini so I always assumed he was Italian

I’m sorry his first name is Alfredo?

What

ALFREDO???

he’s American you guys his mother was American it was mentioned in the beginning

I’m sorry, I’ve moved on to the fact his mother was going through her cupboard for baby names

Alfredo was a name before it was a sauce let’s go over the movie from the top again

This is Alfredo di Lelio (right) the inventor of fettuccine Alfredo, he’d come out to the table and make it in front of you by hand

Someone left their clutch (I learned that from The Looney Tunes Show) more than 2 weeks ago and no one has returned to claim it.

We decided to open it, found a name (along with ID cards, credit cards, and lots of cash). And the responsibility of contacting the is person goes to my manager.

Please explain why she sent this lady a single message from our restaurant's blank, unlabelled/unused facebook account "We have your belongings. If you want them back, come to [manager's personal house???] at exactly 10:30pm (after we close). You have one chance."

That's wild, i can't imagine saying it like that to anybody. I would have to contact the person and say something like "your belongings were left here, please come and claim it as soon as possible".

Like, yeah. That's what I want to do with my personal account, but I can be fired for doing that to a customer. It's like an invasion of privacy or something.

She is the only one allowed to contact customers this way and is not one to take constructive feedback.
