Commissions: Open! I changed my icon for Christmas of 2018 and never got around to changing it back. In Congress, July 4, 1776. The unanimous Declaration of the thirteen united States of America, When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation. We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, --That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.--Such has been the patient sufferance of these Colonies; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former Systems of Government.

I hate cultural pressure restricting clothing. Imagine living in a world where absolutely nobody can give you shit about what you do or don't feel like wearing today. Like you could just go out in nothing but flip-flops and a thong one day because you didn't feel like wearing clothes, and the next day you're going out in full niqab because you woke up this morning and thought "hmm. no thank you. nobody gets to see even a glimpse of me today."

What's in a Name: Fake Name Edition
I thought it'd be be fun to cover the silly pseudonyms that the characters have used in the show.
Bonzu Pippinpaddleopsicopolis - Buddhist Monk (房主) in Medieval Japanese... Pippinpaddleopsicopolis. Very subtle, Aang. ;)
Hua Mei - Beautiful flower (花美) in Mandarin Chinese. The name becomes hilarious when you consider that Katara chose the word Dung for Toph's pseudonym right afterwards.
Wang Fire - Literally the most common surname in China (王)... Fire.
Lee - Literally the second most common surname in China (李).
Mushi - Bug in Japanese (虫). Poor Iroh.
All in all, Katara and Zuko are both terrible at naming people on the spot.

“I’ve Been Dead In The Ground For Long Enough. It’s Time To Try Living Again.” I guess I have a thing for vampires, what can I say? 😏

This is a hazard sign in my state warning to slow down in case of wildlife collision, but I’ve always read it as ‘slow down or you’re gonna get absolutely benched by a kangaroo’

Looking at urban animals has become a lot more fulfilling after learning to not anthropomorphise them. Like the sparrows in the underground section of Helsinki railway station. I used to look at them mildly saddened, thinking that the poor things must have flown in here by accident and now can't get out. But they aren't trapped, really. They're smart birds, surely if they can find their way in, they could find their way out if they really wanted to. They don't care about human concepts of freedom, or manmade vs. natural environments. They are just as free wherever they are.
Here they are safe from the elements, safe from predators, clearly unbothered by the people. There's plenty of odd random scraps for food, and other sparrows to hang out with, and considering the way they sing, this is a place worth marking as territory. If they were trapped and distressed, I don't think that one would be yelling "THIS IS MY HOUSE. IF YOU'RE ANOTHER MAN AND YOU'RE IN MY HOUSE, FUCK YOU FOR BEING IN MY HOUSE."
They're here for the same reason as I am: less noise, wind, and cars, and easier access to deli ham.

best thing about uncle iroh is that if you pay attention he is actually just as much of an idiot as zuko but has just mastered the art of coming across as a wise old man. the even better thing is that zuko is the only one on the planet who somewhat realizes this and no one would ever believe him because he's zuko

Gerry's off taking it easy so Mike is on his own running errands. He's having a Bad Time™ about it.
It doesn't get better when he leaves the archives.
I might one day go into what this conversation was, buuuuuuut not right now. For now I just thought it would be very funny for Mike to be forced into old man brunch.

Does it already hurt to OD from opiates or is it the (beautiful, necessary, lifesaving) Narcan part that hurts?
I can’t say I’ve personally OD’d on opiates, but from my understanding it’s not the opiates that hurt but the lack thereof when they wear off. Narcan completely overwhelms the brain’s opioid receptors, so it literally stops the high right then and there.
(Almost all my experience with narcan has been heroin or fent, so idk how it works for like, oxy, but I imagine it’s similar.)
But to answer your question - I think it’s just the ‘coming back to life’ that hurts. When someone overdoses on an opiate, they LITERALLY die; the drug will just keep repressing your nervous system to nothing.
When you get narcan, your body JOLTS awake from death; that’s the distressing part, I think. Sort of like a car crash - your body is okay going 70 mph, and your body is okay going 0 mph - but the ABRUPT CHANGE in speed kills you. Going from overdosing to sober (more or less) is a pretty traumatic thing for a body to go through (which is why you should still go to the hospital even if you’re feeling fine)
#unfortunately that does mean someone who has been narcan’d is in their right mind to made decisions on their own#a lot of the time we’ll narcan someone#they sign a refusal form#we leave#we get a call 30 minutes later cause the narcan wore off and the patient just kept doing their drug#anyway sorry for the rant#hope it answered your question)#if not feel free to ask more#I (and my folks) been working ems for so long I’m sure any question you have can get answered#ask#cw drugs#cw overdose#yalright anon?

its funny when events that probably couldve been traumatic dont bother you so you'll end up casually dropping stuff like "so after that time i almost got lost at sea as a kid-" and theyll be like WHAT and youre like. oh yeah dont worry its just part of my lore. its honestly not even a top five interesting backstory moment. focus please.

no but daisy was jon's O N L Y friend in s4. and he never forgave her. she didnt ask because she knew, without him having to say, that he would say no. and she respected that. she respected him. he respected her. she sought him out, and he sought her out.
unlike the rest of their allies, they knew that they needed to matter to each other whether they deserved forgiveness or not. whether they were human or 'evil' or not. he decided she mattered. she decided he mattered. she was his only friend.
and she didnt remember him at the end. how fucking sad is that.
