Zutarians saying Aang can't understand Katara (but Zuko can) bc he had no parents in the first place... cringe
Whoever said that forgot that Aang literally had to see the corpse of his father-figure.
Thanks for the ask ^^
Pale violet from mussel shells. There is something beautiful about color when you know its origins - it was made in the ocean under the waves.
Masha The Hero
They forgot the part where the ambulance actually stopped to let the cat in

What a good cat. What a kind cat. How can anyone not love cats they are so good and loving.

they also forgot the part where they only found the baby because masha was screaming her head off bc she knew this baby was in danger. she went around outside the alley the next morning and yelled at passerby until she got one to follow her to the baby. she kept him warm all night and then made sure someone found him. she was adopted after this bc she was a stray and is in a loving home and is a hero

Thank you, Masha, you’re such a good girl.
See.
Kittens can’t regulate their own body temperature. That’s why they pile up.
Cats see us as colony members.
Masha saw a kitten that was on its own, no mommy, no other kittens to cuddle with. She instinctively knew that was a cold kitten. She knew that a kitten alone on a cold night was very likely to die. Because a kitten would have died too.
So, all she was doing was what any good colony member does - protecting the abandoned kitten. Then when the abandoned kitten’s mommy didn’t come back, she called the rest of the colony for help.
People have this bizarre idea that housecats don’t have a social sense. They do, and it saved this kid’s life. And possibly Masha’s too, as life on the streets is dangerous for a kitty.
We say “good dog” all the time, but Masha was being a very, very good cat…not just by human moral standards but by feline ones.

with adhd/autism it's funny like. people will call you weird all your life, people will bully you for your "outlandish" behaviour, people will criticize literally everything you do as "not normal", BUT THE SECOND YOU GET DIAGNOSED (or suggest you might have it) they're like "huh what but you're so normal, you're literally the most normal person I've ever seen, you're literally so normal and absolutely nothing is wrong with you? why would you have that now all of a sudden???"
a hot take that shouldn’t be a hot take at all but here we go: the writers didn’t ruin the wheeler siblings y’all just like living in headcanons, but hey whatever makes you happy, just don’t be annoying about it when people point it out.
mike was always this little shit kid that when he gets angry he lashes out a bit (just like max btw, they’re twins) but he always apologizes, always tries to make things right, he’s not perfect, he’s a kid, and don’t use the “but person A it’s also a kid and they don’t act like that” bc here’s the thing: they are ALL different from each other, if u don’t like the way mike acts then u can always stan another character, there’s more 3 boys in the party you know, also the whole “i want season 2 mike back” is insane bc season 2 mike was depressed and going through heavy ptsd after losing el/seeing el dying in front of him, he literally said to will that he was going crazy bc of it, and ALSO he was treating max badly bc of that, max who was just trying to fit in, but almost no one complained bc he was being gentle with their favorite, but then again, many people from st fandom doesn’t care abt women am i right? as long mike is treating character A nicely is fine. like i was really upset bc he didn’t go to lucas’ game, A LOT btw, but dustin didn’t go either so why is always on mike? y’all punish him way too much, also while i do agree and said many times how i want more plot for mike like in season 1, him being the leader of the party and all, we also need to accept that el is part of that, his character was created in love with her, loving her is part of who he is, i think finn wolfhard said that if i’m not mistaken, we can root for him to get more plot and more screentime, having more scenes with the party, but loving el is NOT GOING TO CHANGE and that doesn’t ruin his character bc THATS WHO HE IS, he loves her since season 1 and will love her until the end. u can dislike it, of course u can, u should ship what U want to, but dont make things up about his character to fit ur own narrative.
nancy from season 1 to season 4 remains the most badass and independent women from this show (besides joyce, and el, whos also independent af), if there’s one thing nancy’s character will NEVER lose is her independence, no matter how this love triangle ends, she’ll NEVER lose her independence bc that’s just how nancy is, nancy wasn’t reduced as a love interest, her love life is just a tiny part of who she is, this girl has been character-driven from day one, and being in love with jonathan or steve won’t change that, nancy was ALWAYS bigger than her love life, she’s REALLY important for the plot, u just need to WATCH THE SHOW to know that, but y’all need to accept that being in love with jonathan or steve (we don’t know yet how this plot will end) is part of her. female characters can be in love and still be badass and independent just as they can be soft and kind, stop making them choose. s4 nancy was a masterpiece, she gets better and better every season. and whatever life SHE chooses, i know she’ll still be kicking ass and taking names bc THAT’S nancy wheeler and nothing will change that.
