It’s so weird how people are going around saying “Oh MYGOD I’m gOnna hate this halloween becausE LITTLE fuckingkiDs are going to D R E S S U P as fortNITE skins anddo those FUCKING dances”
It’s just like, Oh no, kids are going out to have fun…on a holiday meant for kids…..doing as kids do…the absolute madness of it all……….
LISTEN TO ME katara and aang were in LOVE!! she loved him for the PERSON HE WAS!! NOT for anything superficial!!!! and besides that, she spent the better part of the series hating zuko for terrorizing them and hunting aang, and by the time she had forgiven him, she had already formed a strong bond with aang that had turned into love!! DO NOT FUCKING @ ME!!
& like a 5th degree burn irl isn’t a cute anime scar
Yeah, when she said “cool scar” that was really disgusting. It’s proof that the only thing she cares about him is his appearance and him being edgy.
Katara went for the cool, edgy older boy once when she met Jet. And Jet not only betrayed her but taught her a valuable lesson. Katara learned early on that the people most worthy of her were people who valued the same things she did. For most of the series, and most demonstrably at the end of book two when he betrayed her, that was NOT Zuko. Katara had too much depth and emotional maturity to even crush on Zuko after that.
Seriously, “why didn’t this girl like the boy who betrayed her and nearly killed and attacked her friends and family several times???” is pretty insulting to Katara’s character.
my professor spent our entire seminar whining about how there’s too many girls in our group and not enough boys. he was like “i’m not saying women can’t be good surgeons but we need more men” no, we don’t. men suck. deal with it.
CRY ALL YOU FUCKING WANT YOUR TEARS DON’T MEAN SHIT TO ME. YOUR TEARS MEAN DICK TO ME JUST SO YOU KNOW
Okay so not to be that person who adds on to a post with their own story but my mom is a doctor and when I was eleven she took me to these all-female seminar led by a woman who was the head of a hospital because my mom is an empowered and independent woman who wanted her daughter to be the same way and so there’s like thirty females surgeons in the room, all sitting around his huge circlular confrenece table and talking about their experiences in becoming surgeons
most of them were like “everyone told me I should become a nurse or a pediatrician” and “people assume that I don’t know what I’m doing” you know, your average sexist bs
one of the women’s last name was starboard (yeah I know great name) and she was talking about how even though now she was one of the most accomplished surgeons at the hospital, the male scrub techs (read: guys who didn’t go to fucking medical school) and some of the male doctors call her starbitch in the OR because they (scrub techs mostly, strangely enough) try to suggest different ways to care for the patient and she always tells them no you didn’t go to med school and I did and so they would go out of their way to get the male doctors to treat the patient differently and then she would have to argue with him to prove what she was doing es right but sometimes the male doctor would come and take over the case anyway and this went on for a while
but then the hospital statistics changed bc this woman was literally being prevented from treating her patients bc the men were interfering and so the administrative head heard about this (she was female) and she was like y’all better stop or y’all better start looking for new jobs and then starboard was allowed to work on her patients and got the scrub techs replaced and all of the sudden, the patients were suddenly doing much better during and after surgery.
when she told this story she was like “people still call me a bitch, and maybe I am because I won’t let them walk all over me, but when you’ve got something to do, when you’ve got a life to save, you have to ignore their bullshit so that you can save someone’s fuckin life. Sexism should never stop you from accomplishing that”
and little eleven-year-old me still remembers that bc I was insecure and awkward and here was this woman who just did what she had to do and ignored all the people trying to stop here and she really was better than all the male doctors (like her patient stats were better) and I thought I should share with you this inspiring woman with the cool last name
