Every child is trained by their parents for a world that is one generation out of date.
Ok so that other post really got me thinking and like…no wonder Aang is so freakin quick to offer advice. That isn’t just him trying to be a good friend that’s him carrying on Air Nomad culture. That’s him acting according to how his people have always acted. Only now it’s not appreciated. Only now his advice is akin to “pre-school teachings” and not worth listening to. No wonder he wanted to cry when Katara shouted at him about his “infinite wisdom getting old”. Like ok, obviously being yelled at fucking sucks. But I bet it was mostly because he was raised with the understanding that the monks teachings meant a great deal to the entire world. And now it doesn’t.
He woke up in a time when all those teachings meant nothing to anyone but him.
re-watch avatar the last airbender it’s good for your health
Every time I rewatch Avatar The Last Airbender and have watched the last episode I go back to the first episode and watch it until the moment Aang says “Will you go penguin sledding with me?” Let the adventure begin again
The great Area 51 raid.

imagine if the oceans were replaced by forests and if you went into the forest the trees would get taller the deeper you went and there’d be thousands of undiscovered species and you could effectively walk across the ocean but the deeper you went, the darker it would be and the animals would get progressively scarier and more dangerous and instead of whales there’d be giant deer and just wow
Some nights ago I jolted awake around 2 am. Then I wrote down “165” on my wall and then I went to sleep. I still don’t know why 165 was so important that I woke up in the middle of the night.
my friend said that whenever she has a bad feeling about her body/appearance, she asks herself “who profits off of this emotion?” and i really love how simple and incisive that is
