1. Aang wakes up on Appa’s saddle in the Southern Air Temple with bodies rotting all around him, the bodies of his own people and of Fire Nation soldiers. And with the carnage so fresh, he can see familiar faces, and the faces of children. At first he thinks this is another nightmare, but he doesn’t wake up. He is sixteen, he is a fully realized Avatar, and he has been thrown back to the start of the Hundred Year War.
2. Katara wakes up in the Foggy Swamp. With water and plants all around her, she doesn’t realize at first what has happened. She worries that she was kidnapped, that she lost part of her memory, that something happened to bring her to the swamp, but travel back in time a hundred years? That she doesn’t realize until she finds her way out into an Earth Kingdom that has barely felt the touch of Sozin’s ambitions.
3. Suki wakes up on the beach on the Southernmost tip of the Earth Kingdom continent, a short boat ride away from a home that is nothing like her home. As the realization of where she is hits her, she wonders if this is what Aang felt like, waking up a hundred years in the future.
4. Sokka wakes up floating in the Spirit Oasis. No one in this North have heard of Princess Yue or Chief Arnook, or Zhao, and word has only just reached them of the slaughter of the Air Nomads. Sokka waves goodbye, steals a seaworthy boat, and starts planning a resistance to the war he knows is coming.
5. Toph wakes up in the crystal catacombs of Ba Sing Se, and you know, it’s perfectly reasonable that at first she thought the whole “war, what war?” was a sign the Dai Li were back in control, but when she can’t find Iroh’s tea shop, and when she hears people talking about the wrong Earth King, that’s when she starts to worry.
6. Zuko wakes up between the caves of the Firebending Masters, with Druk curled up around him, and the Sun Warriors are just as confused as he is. He flies to the Fire Nation, only to be almost shot down, and is forced to flee to the Southern Earth Kingdom. It’s there he hears rumors of a sixteen year old Avatar named Aang, who is building a coalition to stop Sozin’s war of agression in its tracks. Zuko heads to Whaletail Island to meet up with him and hopefully figure out what’s going on.
ok so.. apparently there’s a bug going around that it makes you block (or makes it appear that you blocked) your mutuals and that they blocked you in turn. i’m just letting you guys know that if it appears that i blocked you, that is 100% not the case and is just tumblr being funky again.
reblogs are ok and appreciated because holy shit this website is a hellhole
a kinnie made up this lie after having a breakdown cause they found out bpdluka kins hatsune miku even tho they have her listed as their top id (not kin cause they’re HATSUNE MIKU IRL) and softblocked half of their mutuals
You just can’t get farm fresh organic nonsense like this on any other platform, I tell you what
replying is how you make friends! reply to anything you want and be friendly. don’t make rude jokes if you’re not friends already though!
quote retweeting is a no-no. when you “retweet with a comment” it’s not liked by content creators because it makes a new tweet out of their tweet and they don’t get the likes and retweets they would get if you’d just retweeted it straight up. if you want to comment on a retweet, reply to it or post a new tweet starting with “LRT” which stands for “last retweet” (it’s fine to quote retweet dumb memes and so on.)
you can make your tweets private. this means no one but your followers will be able to see what you post and no one will be able to retweet your content. you can switch back and forth between private and public at will. some people make a separate private account to tweet personal stuff and let mutuals follow it only. it’s a good way to keep things separate.
what is privatter? privatter is a third party web app that content creators can allow to be attached to their twitter. it lets them tweet content that they can make exclusive to logged in users, followers, mutuals, or a specific list of users. as long as you are logged in to twitter and fall into the intended category, you’ll be able to see it.
you can mute people you follow. (and those you don’t, ofc.) you can also mute words and phrases and entire conversations. if you mute someone you follow and they reply to you, that reply will still show up in your notifications. it’s a good way to keep the peace!
you can limit notifications to people who follow you or to mutuals. (notifications from people you follow will still show up regardless of which option you’ve selected.)
miscellaneous tips and warnings: if you accidentally unfollow and refollow someone, it won’t show up in their notifications as long as it’s within a couple minutes. no more accidental stuff. everyone can see who everyone follows so watch out. people will know if you unfollow. if you want to report someone and want them gone forever, report a tweet where they used a curse word. screenshotting tweets for harassment is a no-no and can get you banned. don’t be lame. don’t be a dick. vaguing others is generally really bad form and so is complaining about content within a fandom you’re in. use the mute tools at your disposal and don’t be a spoiler. you won’t come back from a rep like that and everyone sees everything.
that’s it! happy tweeting!!
how do i keep all my content together on twitter?
threads are your best friend!! you make a tweet with your commission info and links and so on and pin it to the top of your page. then reply to that tweet with a copy and pasted link to the tweet where you posted the art/fic/etc you want to not lose. reply to that new tweet with the next piece of artwork and so on. you can also make a unique hashtag for your content to use when you post, so that when you search that hashtag later you’re able to see just your art. good luck!
Oh this is good to know. I have no idea how twitter works really.
teachers, share the weird crap your kids have done!
I’m not a teacher (yet) but I do work with students and one of them had the nerve to look me dead in the eye and ask me “why would it be a bad idea for me to eat this entire marker?” They’re 11
An 4th grader asked for a high five by saying, “A little slappy to make daddy happy?”
I did not give him a high five.
A student during break had her head in her arms and was shaking a bit, so i asked the kid next to her whether she was laughing or crying and this 8 year old stared me in the eye deadpan and said “im crying on the inside”
Wait i take that back, I cant believe i forgot about the time i brought in a small stuffed octopus as a class mascot because why tf not. It was a class of high schoolers and i didnt imagine theyd actually care much, but one student snuck in a snack and gave it to the octopus as a tribute. Which led to other students doing the same thing, until every day there was a pile of of offerings to Fweej the Overseer, mostly consisting of things like string cheeses and small bags of chips, but sometimes there wouldd be a couple bucks in quarters, one kid brought in some giant pocky i think, and at one point there was a cold stone gift card. This stuffed octopus gained a cult following.
Later i brought in another stuffed octopus that looked exactly the same but bigger and told the class that Fweej the Overseer accepted their offerings and became stronger. These highschoolers lost their goddamn minds.
I recently had one of my second graders run up to me clutching a book and say “I’m reading a chapter book now!” in a really proud voice. I started to congratulate him on his accomplishment when he cut me off mid sentence to say “and I ate an entire sticky note!” before zooming off. Congrats, kid
I'm Still Kicking
