Agreed, which is why I ask permission to pet a dog that comes to me in public. I don't assume I have the right to pet or touch. I ask the owner, because the dog belongs to them and is apart of their family.

I need to get this off my chest...

Why does strangers think they have a right to touch your dog and get upset when you say no?

And why do people seem almost insulted that your dog doesn't want to interact with them, and keeps pushing despite the dog getting upset and even starting to show aggression out of fear?

Why is it so hard to understand that some dogs don't like to interact with people they do not know and feel comfortable with?

Why must a dog automatically like all people and want to be touched?

What if strangers behaved like this with other people? No-one would accept that a strange person would come up to them and started touching their face and body after meeting in the street if it was a human?

Underrated form of intimacy: being silly together

let’s talk about how amazing Avatar: The Last Airbender is for a second

Fantasy world not based on typical medieval Europe

Was a children’s show that openly discussed war, death and genocide

Had several handicapped characters, one of whom was the show’s most powerful person

Every single character was a person of color, drawn to represent Asian and Inuit peoples

Had a character story arc centered around both emotional and physical parental abuse, whose arc was about learning that they didn’t need the parent who abused them

Absolutely BEAUTIFUL ART STYLE AND DIRECTION

Three dimensional writing that rivals even most adult dramas

Characters dealt with sexism in society

Showed citizens on both sides of the war, including showing how the people in the enemy nation were merely influenced by propaganda and an oppressive regime

Had romances that developed overtime and actually talked about the issues of forming a relationship instead of just “and now they’re in love.”

Characters died. On a children’s show. Characters who you fucking knew! Who had story arcs and were their friends and were kids like them!

When those characters died, they left an impact. It wasn’t ignored after a few episodes, the feelings they had for these characters stayed through the entire show

Had environmental messages that weren’t cheesy, and they made you take the destruction of the environment seriously

SUPERB world building, fleshing out many cultures and histories that always felt real

Had a magic system that never felt like magic. It always felt natural and like a solid part of this world with rules that couldn’t be broken

The cute animal sidekicks weren’t just there to sell toys. They were characters who had so much emotion to them and were vital parts of the show’s dynamic. Also, the animals never talked yet somehow still portrayed an insane emotional level that some Disney films only dream of

Spawned a sequel series that dealt not only with sexism, but with sexuality, religion, and the benefits and dangers from the rapid progression of technology

The point is, Avatar: The Last Airbender is one of the greatest shows of all time and the proof is right there

Even a man who is pure in heart and says his prayers by night, may become a wolf when the wolfbane blooms and the autumn moon is bright.
