In this essay, I will outline the theory that flying lemurs in the work Avatar the Last Airbender, are an example of fictional monotremes. This is evidenced by the fact that Momo is presumed male, despite not having external testis -

"save me, substance abuse!" i cry. before you can moralize to me about the dangers of addiction, a noble and powerful steed gallops into the room - my horse whom i have named "substance abuse". you learn an important lesson about making assumptions. i snort a line off its back

Mai's parents are low level characters, but it was odd to throw away their blatant social climbing tendencies for... whatever that was. Mai's father is portrayed a wildly out of his depth taking control of a military occupation. His wife taking more pride in his new role then he does. And he turns around and... leads a loyalist party set on a coup & revolt?
Evil scheming FILs are a trope in Asian dramas because historically men did use their daughters to gain power within the court. It'd be much more drama to have him try to push Mai and Zuko back together, only to reveal he's compromised.
"Okay, but in the Avatar comics--"
In the Avatar comics, Mai's father is plotting against Zuko to bring Ozai back to the throne while his daughter is first in line to produce the next heir to the throne. The man is a proposal away from having his name on the Royal Family Tree, and you want me to believe that he's going to be trying to restore the guy who probably wanted him executed for failing to keep King Bumi imprisoned, let alone keeping the city of New Ozai, the one with his name on it, under control?
Where's the political savvy? Where's the logic?
"Oh, but Mai broke up with--"
Then have him trying to push her back. Make THAT the story. "Daughter, are you OUT OF YOUR MIND?!?!? Your whole family is counting on this!!! Don't you love us? Didn't we raise you for this? You can sit on the throne! You'll never have to work a day in your life! You'll be the most important name in the family legacy! Why would you leave him?"
So, yeah, I just...don't have a lot of respect for them.
#Gene had daddy issues lol#he only liked writing Zuko/Mai/Toph when they could be in conflict with their fathers#even Katara's comic circles around that and its the only time he wrote her half decently#atla comics

My late submission for the Zukaang bingo from earlier this week!
My intention was to cover both the “Festival” and “Ceremony” prompts - I thought a lantern festival would be a good fit! I was inspired by that one Wangxian scene from The Untamed (for the MDZS fans out there) ☺️
This ended up turning into a much bigger project than I initially anticipated because I got super invested in it and wanted to try out different coloring styles lol. I’m quite happy with how it came out! The lantern lighting was a lot of fun to do.

I didn't eat any processed food for 3 days & I felt like shit the whole time now I just had one medium slushy from 7-11 & suddenly I feel great so basically I'm thinking that I have evolved beyond other humans, I'm in perfect symbiosis with the carcinogens I take in on a daily basis & my body will start to disintegrate at the atomic level if I try to be more healthy . Oh well!

They don't talk about this enough, but i recently managed to seduce the governor into letting me pass a bill so that every street light in the state is outfitted with a new type of lightbulb that gives off an imperceptible but profoundly disturbing supersonic tone that causes insomnia and nightmares. This makes it easier for people to engage in risky behaviors such as unprotected sex to cope with the increased psychological stress. And thus the birthrate has skyrocketed, but not too much, since it's offset with the new wave of strange and disturbing murders. But sure ok let's ignore the achievements of women in STEM.
