#I DIDN'T EVEN DO THE BLOCKING THIS TIME

[taleswritten]

This is the last time I'm going to say this. I don't care if people ditch me, block me, whatever. Cause if they were real friends, they wouldn't ditch me. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 

And honestly? I don't even block people I talk consistently with and am close friends with unless it's clear we have different views on fiction or w/e and I feel there's going to be a big deal made out of it. Cause I don't need someone who thinks terribly of me for the fiction I write.

Most of the time, I get blocked, which is just fine. I don't care!! I don't need people who will easily block me!! I very rarely even post about it!! And yes, I have been known to block without a word, but it's never really with people I feel super close to. I usually try to work it out with them. It is not my problem that someone gets upset over me blocking to the point they dnis or talk shit about me just for protecting my peace.

What I care about is people talking shit about me for a month and me being silent and then suddenly I'm even more of the bad guy for standing up for myself.

I have every right to block and unfollow who I see fit. If you get butthurt over that, that's on YOU pal. I always have my reasons and most of the time I will talk to friends before I do, unless I believe there's no point.

I'm not playing the victim cause I do not give a shit. At all. I stay in my own lane, I mind my own fucking business, and I don't give a shit if people block me. Like if we're close, it may sting a little, but I always move on to 'i don't care actually'. You can ask any of my long time friends honestly, they know. Yes, I cadmit I did get really upset and panic-y when I thought someone who was my friend blocked me but you know what? Now i'm at the 'fuck it' stage and really don't care anymore.

I'm not posting any anons about this (unlike some people) so I'm not trying to drag this or anything else out. This will be the last post I ever make on this.

Leave me alone because I'm not doing anything except writing. I'm not posting drama, I'm not talking shit, i'm not posting the anons I keep getting cause I don't care.

Leave me alone, it ain't that hard to move on. I'm not the one getting upset over someone blocking me to the point where I need a DNI and have to cry about it.

Also? I don't use people just to toss them to the side. I have friends I've had for literal years. If you are damaging to my peace and mental health, you're gone. It is as simple as that. I don't really care if that makes me the bad guy but it certainly doesn't make me toxic or manipulative, especially if all I do is block someone and don't even talk about it or cry on the dash about it.

I can and will block people as I see fit. People are always screaming about protecting their space and dash and when I do it, it's suddenly an issue??? I'm not the one sending anons to people talking shit or sending hate (which has been happening to me since this started but guess what? i don't post them! i block and move on!!)

You can ask my friends that I've had for a while, I'm not toxic and manipulative nor do I use and discard people lmao

And tbh? until recently I don't recall blocking people in literal years.

Anyway I'm only posting this as a PSA and to link it in my post in case someone ever has a problem with me blocking them.

Protective Obi-Wan anyone?

I was re-watching the Ryloth arc and I couldn't help but notice,

I love how Obi-Wan's arm immediately goes to block Cody, he extends his hand out and it's not in the form of a fist, it's flat, it's an attempt to block as much of Cody's chest as possible. Cody takes a full step back to, mainly to get into position to shoot. But he's preparing himself to move behind Obi-Wan, who'd need enough room to swing his lightsaber to block blaster shots.

Obi-Wan's first instinct is to protect Cody, his second is to ignite his lightsaber. Obi-Wan protects Cody before protecting himself and others. His lightsaber would give enough cover for all his men, but his body would only cover Cody's.

In the second frame, Obi-Wan puts his hand on Cody's gun first before turning off his lightsaber. Now, he does know what is about to come out of the grate before his men do, which is partially why he wants to stop Cody. Cody putting down his weapon would signal to his men that there is no danger, however, turning off his lightsaber would do the exact same thing. But he chooses to stop Cody first.

After Obi-Wan puts his hand on Cody's gun, notice how long he looks at Obi-Wan. Cody's guard is down, he doesn't keep his eye on the grate like his men do, he doesn't even try to keep his blaster aimed, also unlike his men. Cody doesn't break contact with Obi-Wan until he does, it's in that moment we understand how much Cody trusts Obi-Wan with his life.

She is offering water to any lost travelers! However, it's so hot that the water has become tea, so she's adjusted accordingly!

Not me genuinely in a dilemma of whether or not I should block someone just for one absolutely ASS take even though it literally won't make a difference from their POV

Ty Lee becoming a kyoshi warrior made no sense to me. If anything it feels like a regression. Don't get me wrong I think she'd fit in well with them and I love suki/ty lee but realistically at the start of the season we hear Ty Lee proclaim that her trauma of growing up with six identical sisters is what drove her to the circus and it was kind of dismissed. and then we never really get any closure on this the time we see her she betrays Azula and is imprisoned and then after that the last time we see her she is part of the group in full garb after befriending them off screen.

she joined the one group where a huge recruitment is looking like everyone else. Why?

And the thing is this totally could have worked her coming to terms with her identity even tho she looks like everyone else she is still Ty Lee and she has a lot to contribute by simply being her (and also like how she taught them chi blocking) and so the idea of becoming another "faceless" girl doesn't scare her as much because she knows that to the people that matter they know who she is.

But like the way its done just feels like they needed a nice little fun way to wrap up ty lee's story but it also makes it feel like Ty Lee is incapable of standing on her own, if its not the circus its azula and mai if not them the kyoshi warriors. She's never just on her own being Ty lee she is always playing fidde to some group.

I think it would have been better if the ending had ty lee instead of having already joined the kyoshi warriors had instead been separated from mai and anyone she knew in prison and had had to for the first time get by on her own merits as a person not what she could do for other people. (a bit like what Suki does in Suki alone) and then a little moment between her and Suki where they reconcile Ty Lee tells her how she wants to help rebuild the word after the devastation of the fire nation and Suki's like "it's not exactly rebuilding the word but maybe you can teach me and my girls that chi blocking you do, it's impressive." and Ty lee could smile and agree. Not exactly an invitation to join but a way for her to carve out her own niche and make a mark in a safe space. It could also tie into the chi blockers that we see in LoK of Ty lee decides she likes teaching and decides to teach more non-benders how to protect themselves since the Kyoshi Warriors is pretty sacred and has traditions that not everybody can adhere too.

I just think making her a kyoshi warrior came out of nowhere and not that ut couldn't work at all but it would have needed more time to breathe. I would say have Suki introduce the fact that the kyoshi warriors are going to stay as Zuko's security detail for a while and Ty Lee's knowledge of the palace and Chi blocking skills would be an amazing hep to them so she starts of working with them and maybe int he comiucs we can see that she joined them (but I doubt they had decided this little plot line when the series actually ended)

hate when i see a post about lesbianism and i search 'trans' and 'gender' on op's blog and there's no results which could mean nothing. but could also mean what i think it means.

continually annoyed by how every single post i've seen supporting the notion that "the journal pages in BoB were fakes" just feels like thinly veiled anti material

If you're wondering where I've been (<- guy who still posts) I've been applying for internships so. That has taken over my every waking moment

Someone who constantly embarks on ship wars and fandom wank... doesn't sound too mentally stable. It's sad, really.

Dedicating all that energy and free time to arguing about fictional characters and their relationships, instead of channeling it into something more relaxing or creative, sounds destructive.

Seek help, please. Before it devours you completely.

I always say the shingles saga as an immunocompromised sixteen-year-old was my near-death experience but then my mom will occasionally make musings of the time my heart stopped when I was 8 and I'm like oh yeah that happened

I was going to make my next politics post about Project 2025 and its likelihood of trying to ban fic in the US but then I saw this and fuck it, we're talking about this right now.

Not sure whether my Jewish alarm bells or history person alarm bells are ringing louder, but this is getting really scary. This is Nazi shit. Full-tilt unabashed Nazi rhetoric. He's talking about assigning people numbers and putting them on buses in massive groups. He wants to do it with violence. With the Supreme Court the way it is right now, he could do it. He can kill people with impunity, as long as he's doing it as President. That is the current law.

If you can vote in this election, you need to vote for Harris. Whether you like her or not, she is not using Nazi rhetoric and elevating admitted Nazis (*cough* Robinson in North Carolina *cough*). She is the only one with a shot at victory.

We need to stop this man. If that means making a pragmatic move and voting for someone you detest on some issues but who is not going to assign humans serial numbers and round them up into detention camps bloodily---fucking pinch your nose and do it.

Take it from someone who has to spend a large portion of their week reading history studies...history will not remember your supposed reason for not voting. You will be remembered as a Trump supporter, because you supported Trump.

Tldr: We need to stop this man in this election. Vote for Harris.
