Dandelions & Cats
so when Zuko joins the Gaang and this happens:
he’s probably freaked out (rightfully so) but in the back of his mind he’s probably also thinking “worst comes to worst, I could probably fight her” until:
this happens and he’s like:
and immediately starts reevaluating every bender he’s ever met, thinking of every time Katara totally could’ve killed him, and is forever grateful that she has morals lol
bonus post war convo between Zuko and Azula:
I can’t identify the emotion this woman’s commentary is making me feel
olive you can’t leave this in the tags
yea bud! i was on the grind nonstop for a few months until my body said haha watch THIS! and took me out of work for 3 weeks
Sometimes, it will take the rest of your life.
I can’t stress this enough. I wish I could get through to everyone I know. If you try to organise and be productive with every minute of your day, eventually, your body will pull the rug out from under you in a dramatic fashion, and you may end up being able to do very little at all, in a world that has no sympathy for people who need to rest.
So rest now. And work on making sure the people around you know it’s OK to rest.
And don’t feel guilty for resting. Practice telling yourself that rest - quality rest, where you’re not stressing about something you feel you ought to be doing - is actually a productive thing to do for your body.
You are an animal. You need to respect that animal’s needs. That includes laying about doing nothing as much as it does enrichment and running about.
Even your fucking computer gets overheated and slow if you don’t allow it to shut down and update sometimes (which is actually a lot of what sleep does for humans, btw). You eve notice how sometimes your browser just crashes sometimes because you have too many tabs open, or one of the tabs is causing the whole machine to run slowly?
So don’t tell yourself you want to work like a machine because guess what? Machines fucking fall over all the time if you overload them, try to do too many things at once, or don’t let them rest.
Rest knits up the ravelled edge of care.
If you don’t make time for your wellness, you will make time for your illness.
We all like to joke about how nobody who was at Hogwarts with Harry Potter would be able to learn anything because of all the monsters and dark wizards and shit attacking from all sides, but like, when you think about it… your average Hogwarts student never actually sees that.
I mean, until the battle at the end of Book 7, the climactic points of Harry's adventures have tended to happen either in areas of the school where students aren't supposed to have access or outside of Hogwarts altogether. And in general the only students directly involved were Harry and his little clique.
So like, for the average Hogwarts student, it's more like… you still get a basically normal school experience (albeit with the odd spate of petrifications or megalomaniac Defence teacher to worry about), but also there are these three kids in your class who are just super weird.
Like, one of them is kind of famous, and you'd assume he'd be popular because of that, but he pretty much exclusively hangs out with the class braniac and that one kid with all the brothers, and doesn't really have any other friends. The three of them are practically joined at the hip, and spend most of their time sitting together having whispered conversations that stop the moment anyone else passes by, and then resume only after they've walked out of earshot. You're pretty sure you overheard the word "death-eater" once or twice.
Then during the end of term assembly, when the headmaster is covering all the last notices like who won the Quidditch Cup, and how the frog choir got on at regionals, he suddenly stands up and says "and let's have a big round of applause for Harry, Ron and Hermione, from the First Year, who last week defeated the reanimated soul of wizard-Hitler after he possessed a staff member!"
And you're all just sort of clapping along like whatthefuckwhatthefuckwhatthefuck and then they win the House Cup and you all go home, and literally nobody ever mentions this incident, or the apparent return of wizard-Hitler, or the fact that he can possess people now, ever again.
And then next year it starts all over.

i dont think i posted these but here i made a little frog pattern to make tiny frog toys with my grandma
this is the first lil guy I made while still learning how i should sew it
AAA ok so a lot of people have been asking for the pattern to this, tho I’ve been using just these two little papers to do the cut outs lol
i tried my best to translate it into digital so that people get a bit more accurate look at them. Tho bear with me I’ve never done an actual pattern design sheet before!
so basically my hope is that anyone could print these out to any size of their choosing and get the same result, but ive never tried anything larger than approx. 3 inches with these sooo idk if you try it tag me!
the goal is to sew the backs together to the lines at the tip of the head to the middle of the butt. then leaving a space along the belly piece near the butt end and sewing from one side of the butt including all the legs and the “mouth” to the other side with its legs to get back to the butt. if that makes sense
i usually pause sewing up the body once the head is fully sewn together,, usually after ive sewn both arms and ill yank it inside out where ill start sewing on the little poofball eyes so i know theyre in a good place, then resuming the body, and then pulling the whole thing inside out and pushing out the tips of the limbs with a skinny blunt object like a dull pencil until i can see the stitches. if you attempt this piece definitely make sure you stitch up the arm and leg crevices very well!!!!
then just stuff the lad and sew up his back end and its done :)
one suggestion for fabric is always try to use a stretchy soft fleecy fabric with these because its much easier if mistakes are made during sewing and to hold the ROUND shape better
Overall its a very good use of scraps if you’ve accumulated a lot and don’t know what to do with them 👍👍
So I made a frog (huge)
I literally can’t I’m losing my mind over the sheer girth of this frog.
Absolutely incredible.
11/10 and godspeed.
Employers want YOU to be grateful you have a job, but EMPLOYERS are never grateful for the employees they have
I’m smacked upside the head with the knowledge that some of the people who grew up with Caramelldansen originally are absolutely teachers right now.
Holy Shit.
