*Hands Teba some ~special~ butter fried fish cakes (because he isn't into sweet things like brownies)*

It's time, sir. You've witnessed baked Ravioli, now it's your turn in the oven so he can look after you.

Get lit my man. ✊️🌱

Thanks for the fish cakes. They tasted pretty good. I thought I’d feel worse knowing what happened to everyone else but this isn’t so bad.

(Also Teba an hour later):

Fic Idea - Jet is basically Cinderella (Jetko)

So after the war they find each other again on one of Zuko's visits to Ba Sing Se as firelord. Jet and Zuko eventually starts dating instead of just hatefucking. It's as disasterous as one would imagine. Zuko know how to be a *good boyfriend*, or at least he does on paper.

We've seen how he took Jin out to dinner, lit the lights all romantic as fuck, tried to get ice cream and collect beach trinkets for Mai. He listened to all the shit the sailors said about how to treat a woman right, ok? (also a lot of not so nice stuff they said, but I digress)

So he applies this to Jet. Takes him out to fancy dinners, gives him flowers and fancy clothes. Even jewelry. Jet doesn't know whether to hate it or grossly exploit the fact that he is getting pampered by his rich bf.

Since both of them only possess the ability to blend in when they actively try, and are otherwise loud an dramatic as fuck when they don't try... the public of Ba Sing Se are very much witnesses to all of this nonsense.

Rumors of a forbidden fairytale romance between the new firelord and a poor peasant earth kingdom boy run wild. Zuko is portrayed as the typical rich, dark, tall and handsome man (all objectively true) and Jet...

Well. Jet is the damsel in distress, trying to provide for all his younger siblings (freedom fighters), hardworking at the dumpling shop (he gets free food there, what's not to like?) and the poor man even has a limp after the war!

Zuko is completely oblivious to this. Jet is pissed that he is portrayed as some innocent maiden.

Gossiping lady 1: ...and then he caught him in his arms when he slipped! It was so romantic. Gossiping lady 2: I wouldn't mind if he swept me off my feet, it's just like a fairytale 💖 Jet, seething: that is not how that went! Zuko, who didn't hear shit: Do you want to go to that new restaurant in the upper ring tonight? I've heard they have the best spring rolls. Jet: *sigh* yes...

Sometimes I think a lot about my mom's cat

My mom's cat is a common domestic shorthair we found on the side of the road as a kitten

Regular cat, not a maine coon or one of those massive breeds. His mom was smaller than a loaf of bread

But in a sort of a Clifford The Big Red Dog situation, he grew super fast, and really really big, and took a super long time to stop growing

Worried that she was overfeeding him, she eased back his portions, but he stayed a massive round baby

When he started having kidney problems, she took him to the vet.

The vet took a look at him and said, "holy fuck, what are you feeding him", checked the nutritional listings on his chow, and told her "Yeah, maybe he's reacting badly to the amount of grain in this, try a meatier diet"

So my mom wound up special-ordering this specific high-protein prescription cat food made of like. Kangaroo meat or some shit that cost like sixty bucks a bag

And, as typical act two in an episode of House, he somehow got worse on the fancy specialized stuff that was supposed to be Primo Athlete Olympic Feline Blend

Like. WAY worse. His guts were inflamed and his kidneys were shutting down and he was all sore and HE WAS STILL HUGE, just miserable and sad

So shetook him back to the vet, where they had to help him pee (he was apparently close to bursting and had some kind of blockage too) and went "Yeah no this is NOT normal and we don't know what's going on, we're gonna do some tests but in the meantime you should go back to what he was eating before, at least that wasn't actively killing him" so she did

And he still wasn't great, but he also improved

And so they take his blood and do an ultrasound and a couple g's later she gets a call back like "this is gonna sound crazy, but we want you to put him on a low-meat diet. Just the least amount of protein and iron and shit. We need you to find the grainiest, filler-iest dollar tree kibble available and give him some of that bad bad shit"

And my mother is a woman of science. So she did

And he GOT BETTER

His energy picked back up, inflammation went down, he started drinking normally again, got back to pissing like a fuckin champion

And so it turns out that out of all the random ass freeway bonus cats we possibly could have scooped out of a ditch, WE got the one-in-a-million freak of nature with a SPECIFIC genetic defect that means a paleo protein free range diet is essentially poison and he THRIVES on cheap ass garbage

Like. He medically NEEDS junk food

I dont really understand how that works, but i cant argue with results.

If we had four of him, they'd outweigh my mom. And he's FINE

Also blind, but that's unrelated

Im not using him as a symbol or a metaphor or anything. I just keep catching myself thinking about my mom's Big Fucking Cat

Please help the family of a non-verbal autistic child (who has been losing weight because he only eats certain kinds of food, largely unavailable during this time) leave Gaza!

"School districts currently work with processing companies to offer cashless payment systems for families. But the companies can charge “processing fees” for each transaction. By law, students who are eligible for reduced price meals cannot be charged more than 30 cents for breakfast and 40 cents for lunch. With processing fees, however, families can end up paying 10 times that amount. Processing companies charge as much as $3.25 or 4% to 5% per transaction, according to a recent report from the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau."

Reminder that Palestinians in Gaza are being deliberately starved by Israel. Families in gaza are boiling plant leaves and eating them. They're also eating animals and birds food to stay alive. There are reported cases of kids and infants who died out of hunger and/ or cold. Starving people is part of genocide too. Remember how fast medicine was provided for the Israeli hostages, while Palestinians are starving for food and water and getting operations and amputations performed with no medication or anesthesia whatsoever.

Hello my friends, I am Hassan. I am 14 years old. My family and I live in hell-like conditions. In fact, it is the center of hell. I was supposed to go to school at my age, but the occupation took away my dream and the future I dreamed of creating. I am the student who is supposed to carry books and pens to teach to a child who was robbed of his dream, future, and freedom. My family and I struggle with death every day in all its forms, including bombing, displacement, hunger, and disease. We find difficulty in the simplest requirements of life. All I need is for you to help me donate to save me and my family from hunger. We buy food from donations. Help us buy food and save us from hunger and death. Share my post and pray for me.
