Good news! You aren't required to make your hobbies and passions "marketable." In fact, your crafts, hobbies, and passions don't even need to be public if you so choose. You don't have to spend all of your energy becoming perfect if you aren't enjoying the process. You are not a product, you are a person, a creative, and your work also does not need to be a product.

katara is so fucking funny in “the blind bandit” bc they go to the earth rumble she’s like “UGH men and their VIOLENCE…. so uncouth and distasteful and uncivilized,” and obviously she’s just being used as a mouthpiece through which to establish toph’s whole deal. but like. not two minutes ago she was literally freezing two boys to a wall, just because she can, with the biggest fucking smile on her face. so violence done between consenting parties for sport and entertainment is bad, but wreaking wanton havoc on strangers for no good reason is fine, actually?? girl get ur story straight!!

Frostbite
A little gory/exaggerated but I actually like this a lot :D
I like the idea of the freeze being REALLY rough on the sole survivor, and there’s physical trauma involved that they have to deal with past the mental trauma of waking up 200 years in the future.
Damien gets pretty bad barotrauma from being frozen for 150 years, wakes up to see Shaun get taken, then freezes again pretty much immediately afterwards. It’s not like he could fully thaw in those 2 minutes it took Kellogg to open Nora’s door. So now Damien is deaf in his left ear, and he has trouble keeping his hands warm :)

Eight Palestinians killed in Israeli army strikes on homes in the al-Zawaida and Dier el-Balah refugee camps, with dozens more wounded.
Hamas political chief says the “resistance will not agree to anything less” than a lasting ceasefire, troop withdrawal, and end to the “total siege” of Gaza.
Gaza’s largest functioning hospital in Khan Younis remains under siege by Israeli troops with reports of medical staff being beaten and aid being blocked.
US President Biden says he hopes Israel “will not make any massive land invasion” of Rafah, and “my expectation [is] that’s not gonna happen”. (?????? This man is DELUSIONAL)
Israel’s attacks on Gaza have killed at least 28,858 Palestinians and wounded 68,667 since October 7. The death toll in Israel from the October 7 Hamas-led attacks stands at 1,139.

one of the few moments between them where they threaten to break the act down.
he knows the answer to the first question; do you believe that? have you ever believed that? all she can do is stare at the floor, almost like she’s been caught. because she doesn’t. and he knows she doesn’t.
her role in this thing that they do is to not believe in aliens. she answered him on that first day, does she believe in the existence of extraterrestrials? she had to say no.
she can’t answer him this time, though. she stares at the floor. but he knows.
he knows the answer to the second question too, though. what do you think happened to her?
scully can stand in front of him and tell him that he’s just being emotional all she wants. tell him that it’s manipulation, that it’s impossible.
but her role in this thing is that she is the rational one, and he knows what the rational thing to think about 8 year old girls who disappear from their homes and don’t come back is.
even if it’s not this killer, even if it’s not this man, the rational thing to think is that it’s another.
so after four years of seeking and chasing and following after as he walks into the same room every day, as he wants to believe, what does she believe? what is she really saying when she says no, she doesn’t believe in the existence of extraterrestrials?
and can they keep the act up, when this is what it means?

I love when non Americans are tryna like get Americans on fahrenheit by saying "do you know what temperature water boils at???" I have never once in my fucking life needed to know what temperature water boils at. I boil water all the time by literally just looking at it. what are you guys needing the boiling point of water so much for?
