you sure the high temperature and thermal mass of steam isn't slightly worse than condensation?

same thing with people in the US largely considering downtown to be where poor people live (aside from like, NYC), because basically the only affordable housing is the old apartment buildings that remain.

if a driver kills me, don't put up a ghost bike, put up a fight against other people dying in the same way.

or maybe do put up a ghost bike, but put it in the middle of the fucking road along with a sign to protest the fact that it was allowed to happen.

i do feel like it doesn't really remind people, unfortunately

same with flowers and crosses next to roads, people just see it and go "oh how unfortunate, nothing to be done about this, that's just how things are sometimes people die on the roads"

as another autist this is just very much how it feels, though

there's a pretty clear tendency for people to fall into various broad "kinds" of autism, just like how people in general tend to fall into categories like "sports person", "fishing enthusiast", or "motor vehicle nerd"

to be brutally honest it feels like the cover of a generic (young) children's fantasy book, it's too.. grand and colourful

i think it's also that the protagonist looks so realistically young, Aang was 12 when he came out of the iceberg but he didn't really look 12 and only sorta acted his age for a few episodes, because otherwise it'd be kinda grating to watch as an adult and espically as an older teenager..

i feel it's kinda telling that my immediate first thought was "huh? but toph- ohh right, not the avatar"

did aang ever pull off anything on the scale that toph did? that whole "holding up an entire fucking underground library" thing feels like it was only really topped by kyoshi splitting off her island
