I don't feel like Korra's raw strength is talked about enough. She picks up this full grown man with basically no difficulty!! It should be noted that the Avatar state does NOT affect physical strength, only bending strength. Plus she goes out of the Avatar State while she has him up in the air anyways!!
There are a lot of really good examples of her physical strength throughout the show but this one's probably my favorite because it's just so ridiculous and blatant
Here's a couple season one examples just for the fun of it
someone has to say it. etho is a horrifically unreliable narrator. probably as much as scar is. he’s just sneakier about it so people are less likely to expect it and more likely to fall for his facades
can we stop putting motion blur in video games forever please
it never looks good, and all it ever really accomplishes is needlessly obfuscating the game state.
like who the fuck says "oh gee this game is great, but i wish every time i moved the camera it would become 10 times fucking harder to tell what the hell is even going on"
Very funny to me how Stansas present her character as being so interesting and complex because of her vulnerabilities, while simultaneously ignoring those same vulnerabilities in other characters. Dany is sold as a bridal slave and lacks agency throughout AGOT and after. Her dragons are either too young/small to utilize effectively or locked away for the majority of the story. They aren't some all-powerful trump card that protects her from harm. Arya is captured as a prisoner of war, forced to watch countless people tortured and murdered, and then essentially enslaved in Harrenhal with no way to fight back. She has an entire arc of feeling powerless, of being a "mouse", during ACOK. She doesn't have "kung-fu" or the ability to magically fight her way out of every situation, she's a young child lacking physical strength with only the most basic sword training.
Sansa isn't the only female character, she isn't the only young character, she isn't the only character who suffered, and no one is obligated to prioritize her. I'm so tired of Dany and Arya being mischaracterized and having their stories erased to prop Sansa up. "Sansa has kept her dignity" In other words, let's praise her for having a level of security that Dany and Arya don't have access to. She hasn't ever been forced to make a hard decision which of course means that she's morally superior to them. They can't even admit to themselves that her lack of action is due to her own passivity. If it doesn't fit their delusion, they erase it from the story and expect the rest of us to play along. Ask one of them what they like about her character without bringing up her being the ultimate victim, and I genuinely don't believe they'd be able to give you an answer. They belittle other characters more than they talk about her and these takes just scream insecurity/jealousy at the content and development other characters have in their POVs.
cannot wait for postcanon assassination attempts on this weak soft king and his skinny loser advisor only for them to find out said advisor is straight up a lethal assassin and said King is somehow able to tank a stab wound because he just loaded up his vigor stat (they end up foiled bc one of them stepped on izutsumi's paw and she annihilated all of them bare handed)
I’m at my theater job rn and it’s my first shift all by myself. Super nervous!!! But I’m planning to make!!!! hundreds of dollars!!!! so I can!!!! buy myself a cameo for my birthday!!!!! (That’s the hope anyway lol) wish me luck!!!!!
wait why was the thumb wrestling card an auto dan win?
they’ve thumb wrestled on camera five times before then and arm wrestled a few times (and once with dan’s non dominant arm) and dan won every single time because he’s physically stronger than phil, phil didn’t fight back when dan pinned his finger because once dan got it down he would not be able to get it back up. challenges of physical strength are automatic dan wins.
we just got done doing all the monthly generator maintenance and electrode calibrations and such at work and it’s got me constantly thinking about how much work must go into keeping all that weird crazy void tech in albrecht’s labs running . because i’m normal
