Zukka is excellent for many reasons but included is that it gives Azula and Katara the funniest possible relationship: sisters in law

there are a NUMBER of folktale Woman-Creatures like selkies who exist to make the inherently coercive nature of heterosexual marriage explicit and to externalize male anxiety about how if your wife had actual autonomy she very well might disappear and you might never fucking hear from her again
which is a FASCINATING category of Woman-Creature imo

Trump, 79, Falls Asleep in Weird Press Conference About Milk
The president’s eyes were completely shut at multiple points of the ceremony. He can be seen looking drowsily on as Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins drones on about milk, while flanked by Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and former Housing Secretary Ben Carson.
honestly that does sound pretty drowsy
After he woke up, Trump signed legislation allowing public schools to serve whole and 2 percent milk, reversing an Obama-era policy that limited schools to fat-free or low-fat options.
feeding kids fat free milk is child abuse, come on
please read this story of a man accidentally discovering his wife is the world’s best Tetris player
[image description: an excerpt of text that says:
“It’s funny,” I told Flewin. “We have an old Nintendo Game Boy floating around the house, and Tetris is the only game we own. My wife will sometimes dig it out to play on airplanes and long car rides. She’s weirdly good at it. She can get 500 or 600 lines, no problem.”
What Flewin said next I will never forget.
“Oh, my!”
/end id]
TL;DR on the article
The husband was writing an article on classic video game records, was surprised to find out that holding the Tetris record is a bit of a big deal, and mentions how good his wife is at it.
The guy he’s talking to mentions that the record is 327, way lower than his wifes usual scores of 500-600.
They travel to a tournament, and she goes to do her attempt. Just after she beats 327, and is climbing higher, a judge brings up to the husband that the specific version she’s playing actually has a different record of 545.
She overhears that she needs to beat 500-something, and keeps going, setting the record at 841.
which, they later find out, is her second-best record
There was a decent but ultimately forgettable fantasy novel I read a long time ago that had a single moment that stuck with me.
The protagonist has just won the world famous sword fighting competition in the big, rich capital and is talking to his mentor, and says something about being the best swordsman in the world. The mentor frowns and tells him that no, he isn’t. He is the best swordsman out of the people that could afford to show up to this tournament. There could be a mercenary way out in the mountains, patrolling a snow encrusted fort’s walls that could kick his ass and there was no way to know until he was already losing to the guy.
I think about that a lot, and how for every apparently dominant competitor, there might be a fucking ronin out there somewhere capable of destroying them.
Always reblog tetris ronin lady

Anonymous asked:
Do you feel safer or less safe when cops are around?
*ex. you feel safer with cops on the subway, but less safe when they're out on the street
Do you feel safer or less safe when cops are around?
Safer, because I trust them to deal with any crime/trust them in general
Safer, because I think having them there acts as a deterrent to crime
Safer, for another reason
Less safe, because I’m part of a group that’s often unjustly targeted by them
Less safe: not part of a specific group, but still fear being unjustly targeted
Less safe, because I think their presence escalates situations
Less safe, because they have guns and guns scare me
Less safe, because an area with more cops likely has more crime
Less safe, because I engage or have engaged in illegal activity
Less safe, for another reason
Depends on context*
The presence of cops does not change how safe I feel in a situation
*ex. you feel safer with cops on the subway, but less safe when they’re out on the street

Guy Moon, the man behind the iconic tracks of many shows and the unique music style that was Danny Phantom.
He will be very sadly missed.
