Is it TF?

TF, as in Transformation, is a concept that can mean quite a few things to many different people- and when depicted in art or media, usually consists of some sort of physical or psychological transformation of one thing into another, often including the contexts before or after such a change occurs. 

For the purposes of this blog, the assumed pretense that the TF or TF-adjacent content depicted in posts on this blog being nonsexual in this manner is considered the default, and will be treated or engaged with as such unless clarified otherwise, but there are plenty of ways those who engage in TF art can enjoy it! There are many who consider it a paraphilia for themselves and commonly enjoy it as a sexual theme, but it is also quite common for people to enjoy it entirely nonsexually, as well- perhaps exploring it under a lens of gender, as a vessel or narrative device to communicate themes, or just liking it as an unrelated special interest... TF is fascinating and alluring concept in itself, regardless of the ways it can be enjoyed and explored.

I made this blog because I love it when I see people unintentionally making TF posts on tumblr. I feel like it happens a lot and I think it's really, really funny when it does, by accident or not. Feel free to tag me in posts or send in questions asking if something is TF, and I'll give my honest answer as an expert in the field myself. 

Don't forget, words to live by:

It's just so riotously funny that this rumour about Daniel Ricciardo having two races to prove himself was started by the NZ Herald of all publications.

For starters, the Aotearoa NZ media in general has zero in-depth understanding of how F1 works at all. We don't send journalists to races from any of our outlets. We only care about F1 because there's a chance a kiwi might have a permanent seat in the near future and is like... probably gonna be pretty good if he does. It's highly unlikely that any journalist here has contacts within the paddock beyond Lawson and his family.

Like to understand exactly how much this country does not care about F1 from a media perspective, they didn't even talk about it when Brendon Hartley was driving. Probably would have been different if he was doing well, but he wasn't. Motorsport news in general doesn't even have its own section on the sports page of our most well known news site, despite Supercars being pretty big in this part of the world.

Every time I read an article about F1, or see a short segment on TV (which will always mention Liam Lawson in some way, I am not kidding, they will find a way to work him in there), it's almost always laughable the lack of in depth understanding the reporter has on the matters, particularly the intra and inter-team politics, the impact of money and sponsorship, and even just basic stuff like strategy being a major part of the outcome of a race. Or how a driver can have value beyond their race result.

Then, you have the Herald specifically, which absolutely loves a clickbait article to drive traffic. In fairness, this is very much a product of the state of our media at the moment, which is currently undergoing an absolute gutting. Personally, I find the Herald to be riddled with minor factual errors, constant and egregious spelling and grammatical mistakes, and spin. Keep in mind that this is in the context of the NZ media, which is generally considered very factual and accurate on a global scale. They're not like... the Daily Mail, they're a reputable outlet that isn't tabloid journalism, but they're not exactly afraid of wild speculation when it suits.

So yeah. I saw someone post a screenshot of the article, and had to hold in my laughter.

Face reveal cuz I looked pretty yesterday <3

gone :]

the most (only) important post-canon arc for mai is her learning to let herself be vulnerable. learning that she does not have to spend the rest of her life suppressing both the good and the bad - she is allowed to be sad and angry, and she is also allowed to be happy and loved. mai spent her entire life perfecting an apathetic demeanor, perfecting a persona that does not care about anything. and, therefore, turning herself into someone who not only bottles up the negative emotions but also shuts out the positive ones. at boiling rock, she finally makes a move that puts her true feelings on display, and that paves the way for her to open herself back up to all of the feelings she has spent her entire life ignoring.

post-canon, mai's arc is not only about learning she's allowed to be sad, she's allowed to be angry, she's allowed to react to the trauma she went through. it is also about her learning that she is allowed to have good things. she doesn't have to punish herself for craving affection and love. she is allowed to want, and she is allowed to want whoever she wants. she does not have to hide her feelings for ty lee, does not have to suppress her attraction to women, does not have to assume that whatever marriage she is forced into will feel like a chore at best and a life of torture at worst.

mai has gone her entire life not receiving affection. even her relationship with zuko was stilted and forced, neither of them quite sure how to show that they cared for the other because they didn't care for each other in a romantic way. it was awkward and messy, and while mai might hate zuko for running, she's also grateful because she hated it too. so when, post-canon, she and ty lee end up together, it takes mai a while to understand how to accept ty lee's affection. it takes mai time to be used to someone who kisses her cheeks, her forehead, her hands spontaneously; someone who calls her lovely and starlight; someone who will hug her whenever she needs it and also whenever she wants it. it takes mai a long time to accept all of the love ty lee has for her - to realize that she doesn't have to earn every hug, she doesn't have to be on the verge of a breakdown for ty lee to kiss her forehead, she doesn't have to spend her life trying to be worthy of affection. this affection is hers to have and to keep and to cherish and ty lee is freely offering it to her, no strings attached.

mai's arc is about learning to be vulnerable, learning to be loved, and learning to be held. it is about falling asleep next to the girl she loves and not tensing up when ty lee pulls her close. it is about mai learning to open herself up and trust ty lee. it is about ty lee's arm over mai's torso, mai's back pressed to her chest, finally, finally letting herself be held. finally letting herself be loved. finally letting herself be at peace. it is about the fact that she no longer shies away from affection, no longer fighting with the voices in her mind that tell her to break free from ty lee's arms because she does not deserve this love. for mai, vulnerability is not only crying and being angry and breaking down - it is embracing the (physical) affection that her friends and girlfriend want to give her. it is falling asleep in ty lee's arms, sleeping soundly through the night, and waking up to mid-morning sunlight, all without doubting how worthy she is to call this happiness hers.
