How to Resolve the Cauvery Water Dispute: A Case for Cooperation over Litigation
The Cauvery water dispute: A case of litigation over cooperation The Cauvery river is a lifeline for millions of people in the southern states of India, namely Karnataka, Tamil Nadu, Kerala and Puducherry. It originates in the Western Ghats in Karnataka and flows through Tamil Nadu before joining the Bay of Bengal. The river basin covers an area of about 81,000 square kilometers and supports…

When in doubt, Soup it out.

#poorly drawn mdzs#mdzs#lan wangji#a-yuan.#wei wuxian#Yes I am skipping over LWJ's panic at WWX joking about giving birth to A-Yuan. It's funny bit but there are many more to come!#The last time these two sat down together the tensions were so high. The peace is nothing more than a layer of cold fat on the surface.#It's not 'really' them coming to see eye to eye. It's them not having the energy to say what they really want anymore.#LWJ is very defined by his jealousy and the conflict it creates with his need to put his feelings aside for the perceived greater good.#To live a life where you are always second and never ever allowing yourself to be first...#If other people can be at peace and happy - it has to be worth it right?#If he orders a plate of food that he will struggle to eat but is the favourite thing of the person sitting across from him#Is it not worth the sacrifice?#But remember! You can't take anything for yourself ever. No matter how much you want it.#He did it once before and he regrets it so much. So all he can do is accommodate.#And WWX? Well. You can't let anyone in if there isn't enough water to splash around in.#Keep things shallow and they just move on. Even if you'll miss them when they go - this is just how things are now.#No more teasing and trying to pull a reaction from LWJ anymore. You'll never be more than someone he can't stand so what's the point.

some stories are written precisely to elicit strong emotions from the reader INCLUDING negative ones. some stories and characters are meant to be upsetting, they are meant to challenge you and make you uncomfortable!! when a story makes you feel Big Feelings sometimes you are meant to sit in those feelings and ask yourself why! fiction is a great space to explore these emotions in a safe environment. you, as the reader, are meant to think critically about the art you are enjoying and that includes asking yourself questions like why has the author presented their art in this way and what are they trying to tell me. and then you get to have fun picking it apart and figuring it out and deciding what, exactly, the art means to you.
#this post has been in my drafts since SEPTEMBER and it just gets more and more relevant lately#and sure sometimes we decide in the end that the art is bad and that we don't like it. that's fine. i'm not arguing anyone's right#to dislike certain things. it's fine!!! but why are you acting like it's a personal offense??? what's going on??#like idk what is in the water these days that people have become so averse to Storytelling#the whole POINT is to make you FEEL SOMETHING!!!#why are you getting mad at artists for making you feel something!!!!#between some of the asks i and other authors get to the recent stuff with mouthwashing and epic saga and fucking nosferatu#NOSFERATU. IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE SCARY???#i really feel like i am losing my mind. i keep thinking of that 'disco elysium but its a little girl looking for her lost cat in the alps'#tweet. like this is really where we're at. people would rather feel Nothing. no one wants to be challenged#no one wants to explore Themes or read social commentary anymore it's so dire#let's all just go read our bland cozy fantasy story with found family and No conflict & nothing interesting to say at all#i'm sure we'll all be safe there#fuck!!!#also this isnt aimed at that anon i got a few days ago this is just like. a general trend i have noticed that is happening Everywhere rn

“It’s gross if Katara marries Zuko since he’s her colonizer” she overthrew the last Fire Lord to put Zuko on the throne. If anything the Fire Nation would be worried that he’s Katara’s puppet
#“Katara and Zuko are like Pocahontas and John Smith” yeah if Pocahontas toppled the British Empire and made John Smith run it#Trivia: the episode The Puppetmaster foreshadows the geopolitical conflict stemming from the paranoia that Fire Lord Zuko is a puppet king#Especially since palace servants can confirm that he is a simp for Master Katara of the Southern Water Tribe#Tbh installing a ruler in line w your interests is actually a classic colonialism move so she reverse UNO’ed the whole situation#Zutara#pro zutara#anti anti zutara#fire lady katara#ATLA colonization discourse

thinking about the sheer amounts of conflict of interest within the fae group. it’s so deeply funny to me. kieran (unseelie king) is dating mark blackthorn & cristina (whose family also has connections to the fae & is bffs with emma), gwyn is with diana (blackthorn connected) and has his own connections to mark & kieran, ash is the seelie queen’s kid who’s also connected to dru, and kit’s got his obvious shit with ty
blackthorn takeover of the fae showing how hereditary ascension can be messed up
#like. if they found some way to reliably get the seelie queen to agree with ash’s ideas the fae realm would be fucked from a fae perspective#this isn’t even touching on ash kit mark & helen all being both shadowhunter & fae. like#what does the water in the la institute have.#kit herondale#twp#ash morgenstern#i have no idea what tags kieran & gwyn would use. tragic.#(also my extended au where ash & kit r parabatai & the seelie queen has bimonthly dinners w them to keep up to date w ash)#(like. so much conflict of interest. everywhere.)#(someone would be like wow the fae have so much dissent in their courts & everyone connected to these four r like. well. not really???)#(it looks like dissent from the outside but that’s just bc ash keeps putting whipped cream in kit’s shoes & kit retaliates w salt in—#—ash’s coffee. they tend to agree more often than not. but you’d only know that if u know who the players of the game are)

I wonder if part of Suvi's desperation to know a clear 'right thing to do' is because one of her earliest memories of making a decision was bathing Eursolon.
Truly if I perceived one of the only times I took initiative as the direct reason my friend could never see their own family again I would never elect to make a decision that effected anyone else for the rest of my life.
Anyway, despite being a Wizard apologist, I truly loved the end of the episode. Hacaea, the woman that you are.
#Listen old ladies are one of my favorite categories of people in the world#Hacaea was designed in a lab for me to cherish and respect#wwwo spoilers#wbn spoilers#worlds beyond number#the wizard the witch and the wild one#suvirin kedberiket#the wizard sky#eursolon toma#I was also just sitting there during the fight thinking about how much I love conflict like this in stories#I have terminal one piece brainrot so I was just thinking about water 7#And how much I love both Usopp and Suvi who were both given info they would never have taken well#But especially not after one of the worst days of their respective lives#God Suvi has not slept since before the Wizard Straw became lunch

Destiny crack AU idea :
Random civilian in the city comes across a piece of darkness technology that got misplaced or whatever, they end up having a philosophical conversation with the Witness and gives it a crisis that completely diverts the final shape. No one else knows why the Witness is no longer interested in its previous goals and the random civilian just goes on with life.
#luna’s brainbox#destiny#destiny 2#guardian 1 : Is that the Witness..? Painting?#guardian 2 : I think our jumpships water might have been drugged we should go back to the city.#The Witness mumbling to itself : There is value in contrasts- it is only with pain that joy may be experienced.#in our quest to find purpose we sought to destroy all purpose and meaning in the universe#guardian 1 : Yeah definitely been drugged#btw I don’t care if this conflicts with some canonical opinion with the Witness because I’m here for fun. It’s a crack concept not a novel.

i can’t stop thinking about your waterbender!megumi au..,, like yes he’s more specialized in healing but would not hesitate in using waterbending to protect you from whoever or whatever (even if he prob loses😭) he might even learn bloodbending from the village’s hermit choso who knows🤷🏽♀️ and lmao him just giving you a betrothal necklace without verbally proposing you… i hate (love) this dork
even if he prob loses LOLL megumi is such a loser but it’s okay he fights valiantly <33 but yeah, him spending all his time with his mom and all the elders in the village healing and homemaking and cooking because his style of water bending is so soothing and calm, and also he’s a huge mama’s boy, and also because everyone likes to use his and toji’s strength to their advantage to get them to do the heavy lifting, but the second there’s a threat to you, he pulls out all the stops. suddenly he’s a trained fighter and master waterbender oh he’s so beloved to me <33
the necklace thing to me is like how katara was wearing her grandmother’s betrothal necklace without knowing it? he took a trip to the opposite pole where the tradition is engagement necklaces or bracelets or whatever significant piece of jewelry, and comes back with one for you and just. gives it to you, no explanation and then a day later someone else notices it and grins ear to ear congratulating you and megumi and you’re like ????? and it’s not until his mom is like “oh he did it! tell me all about the proposal!” and now megumi is dodging icicles you’re bending his way bc who proposes without proposing. but it’d also be equally hilarious if he also didn’t know it was betrothal jewelry and was just trying to be romantic and now you’re engaged LOLL
#anonymous#it’s technically self plagiarism if i say he gave you the necklace with the intention of marriage but didn’t tell you LMFAO#but i think it’s equally megumi to just. try and be Stereotypically Romantic and end up accidentally proposing#also extra bonus if after all this toji was like well. if it makes it any better ur grandparents wanted to betrothe the two of you to#each other at birth bc of conflicts at the time anyway so congrats!#(toji is then splashed with water by his wife)#atla au#jjk x reader

Zoro demanding that Luffy not allow Usopp back on the ship seems to be a much more divisive topic than I originally thought. Looking at yknow, so many different sides, I think I understand how his words can feel cruel when you take into account how much Usopp grew in Enies Lobby and how much he pushed himself to the very limit trying to make things right. but then of course I have my own take away and. honestly this next bit might sound even crueler towards Usopp at first. I just don’t think that this was about Usopp at all. Or at least not in Zoro’s eyes.
His focus was on the way Luffy still needed to grow as a reliable Captain than on what Usopp needed to do as a crew mate. Luffy needed to reinforce his authority before moving on. He was formally challenged, and in Zoro’s eyes this couldn’t go unaddressed and untalked about- and let me pause here to reiterate that even though I’m arguing in this moment he was disregarding Usopp’s personal growth (as many ppl criticize him for) it’s not because he respects him less than Luffy or god forbid loves him less than Luffy- because as much as the Strawhats tend to disregard traditional rules of authority on their ship, Luffy is their Captain. And that means he’s holding their dreams in his hands. Someone challenging his authority is big, even if Luffy doesn’t want it to be, because how could he expect the Strawhats to continue to rely on him for leadership? When he’s willing to bury the hatchet without him and Usopp having even spoken to each other properly without a mask in between them.
“We’re not kids playing pirates” isn’t Zoro trying to say ‘Usopp’s actions towards Luffy were childish’ like many people think, it’s ‘you need to resolve this issue like an adult’. And though everyone’s allowed to read this moment differently, I really hope the ones who read it the same way I do don’t still think Zoro was in the wrong for asking Luffy to stand his ground properly.
#i’ve read some truly PHENOMENAL fics that have still surprised me with the way the author interpreted this conflict between Zoro and Usopp#and I dont mean it in a bad way at all it’s still a very nuanced and thought-out take and fitting for the tone of the fic#but it also made me wanna run to get my own take on it written somewhere on this blog to see if OTHERS are surprised by it#or outright disagree#i’m usually very nervous about debating this kind of thing cause people can get aggressive but.#i at least trust usopp fans to be chill and i’m sure theyre the ones who have spent the most time analyzing this moment#anywho#roronoa zoro#water 7#monkey d. luffy#one piece#god usopp

Ulysses obsession with the Courier is a special type of sad to me cause the Courier’s part was so important but so unwitting. They had no idea what was in the package they delivered and neither did he. Neither had an idea of what it could’ve done and the Courier was only caring out their job (mind you the Courier could be killed via notes in the express contract if they don’t). To them it was just another regular delivery to the divide and one that they likely thought would help, just like all the ones before.
It’s so tragic for Ulysses to hold so much ire to the Courier when it really was the case of it could’ve been anyone. Anyone could have delivered that package but they did and so he focused the blame on them and it destroys what he is trying to instill in the courier on a fundamental level.
#like yeah the courier delivered the package but in the end that’s a job#any random courier could’ve delivered it especially since we know in the past the factions were farther apart and this travel was a smidge#safer but courier six got it and this Ulysses blamed them#like I don’t care much for Ulysses because I think lonesome road embodies don’t shoot the messenger at it core#and what people focus on doesn’t focus on the fact that in the bigger picture#everything went wrong because two factions were at war and at some point the codes would have been delivered#and the divide destroyed cause with how close it is to NCR territory it would of been found#like there is an inevitable and too many people treat Ulysses as if he knows more or is more aware of the idiosyncrasies of conflict#when he’s like fundamentally flawed just at the standard of being a legion apologist STILL and just how focused he is on one persons#involvement cause yeah choices matter even the small one but I think Veronica’s quest says it best with a line from the courier#you can’t control what they do#like the courier couldn’t and can’t control what they deliver and yet it’s got them in hot water multiple times#like do you think they enjoy being shot or knowing they are indirectly responsible for activating the annihilation of a community#to me it’s hypocrisy to be willing to end the world or one world to prove a point and whatever argument made that only military factions#suffer forget there are innocent civilians suffering that had no part and Ulysses is no better than the Courier#I don’t like devils advocate and a lot of the dlc just feels like that but idk I know people love it but the depth is just not there for mr#ulysses fnv#fallout#fallout new vegas#courier six#the courier#lonesome road#the courier has very little personality outside what we give them but some lines and delivery paint a picture#like uhhhh undertale deltarune rules ig

oh reblog for more responses please lol
#poison ivy#poison ivy dc#dc polls#tumblr polls#polls#dc poison ivy#dc#dc comics#also I find it more interesting when Poison Ivy is very biologically plant#I think I prefer her with green skin I think partially because I like her more plant than human#but also because design-wise I love her red hair as the pop of color contrasting the green#a white ivy can be good tho to break up the green and making the design more visually clear#also I like when she is very plant and like needs sunlight and water and dirt not food lol#(but also she should still have human emotions)#I love Poison Ivy#I love love Ivy#Oh and I really don't like when she's a ginger (orange hair) her hair needs to be bright red#to me her core character traits are 1. her overwhelming and intense love for plants and the environment#2. her care for people (usually restricted to Harley but never underestimate Ivy's motherly instincts)#this trait is usually where the conflict with her character lays#3. her sex appeal this was originally her only trait I'm a gay man so I have less to say about it but I do love her femininity and slay lol#4. probably least important her evilness which is best when it's motivated by one of her other traits I like w#if its not clear I love Poison Ivy and I just put an entire other post in the tags lol#I like when she has cool lesbian aunt vibes#but I also like when she has unhinged plant lady vibes#pamela isley
