i feel like there’s a genie in charge of avatar. the thing we wanted most was probably a show about Kyoshi, our beloved 8 foot tall bisexual trans woman, free from all self doubt, kills fascists, separates an island from a fucking continent to be gay in peace and start a feminist militia. “the tallest feet of any avatar” and The Most Down For Murder.

and they announce we’re getting two ya novels about her!

and then they announce a second live action reboot of the original show. as if anyone asked for that again. as if anyone thinks “hey this was a great cartoon, you know what else would be good? if it was a live action show that needs to be at least 50% cgi anyway”. 

and that means that it’s not that they just didn’t have the time or funding for a whole new show at the moment, they just thought it was safer to make a show that doesn’t tread any new ground.

like i know im not coping at all but for the situation im probably coping as well as possible i mean ive been sick for 3 years i’ve made no progress this year and i’ve been getting worse for like 6 months now like i’m going to be just fucking sick forever

to add to this “humans are weird” thing
did you know that humans are the only species on earth with the ability to throw things with any significant degree of accuracy and force (apes can throw with about the force of a human ten year old, but cant lock their wrists well enough for accuracy)

and we just never really think about it bc its so easy and simple to us that pretty much all of our sports are based around the concept of throwing things accurately

so
what if the concept of projectile weapons takes most species FOREVER to get the hang of, or even come up with in the first place.
a human goes onto a ship and throws some trash into the nearest reclaimer, shouts “kobe!” and all the other aliens on board absolutely LOSE THEIR MINDS

I definitely didn’t know this about humans but it’s actually really neat
