On Thursday 1st of October I had got off the train and was waiting to be picked up by my friend. Two teenagers of e-scooters rode past and were calling out slurs, they took a liking to me and relentlessly berated me. I hadn’t been called a faggot in a long time, so the whole situation was very bizarre to me.

Once I got sick of their insults, I went up to security and asked for his assistance, he shrugged and pretty much ignored me. I went back outside to wait, the teenagers returned and continued to harass me. I was verbally abused by kids and when I asked for help, I was ignored. It was just an awful situation.

After the fact, my friend convinced me to report the security guard, in which I did. I heard back yesterday and was told “because I wasn’t in harms way, the security guard had no obligation to assist me.”

What the fuck?

Abused for being gay, then ignored by SECURITY. So wild in 2026 this is what I’m dealing with. Fuck the security guard, fuck Transperth, fuck the lil homophobic kids

I am working on a text based game based on Avatar: The Last Airbender, The Legend of Korra, Avatar Aang: The Last Airbender and The Chronicles of the Avatar novels

As stated in canon, friendships can last lifetimes. How important should members of past Team Avatars be, to future Avatars?

How long should descendants/their bloodline stick around?

Would humans/benders have had last names 10,000 years before Aang? Share ideas for last names that would work in canon please :)

Moved to the Mandurah area last week and it’s become more and more upsetting / irritating that there is no easy way to get into the city. Want to drive? Highway is constantly clogged up - whether this be due to scared / impatient drivers, it’s annoying.

Want to take a train? No parking at the train station.

Is it stupidity or neglect?

One would assume, the more houses you build south, the more people would move there, meaning more drivers / travellers trying to get into the city. Are there any plans to alleviate these congestions? I assume not, just build more houses.

Neglect seems like the easiest answer - doesn’t affect the people planning these things so who cares, right?

I am working on a text based game based on Avatar: The Last Airbender, The Legend of Korra, Avatar Aang: The Last Airbender and The Chronicles of the Avatar novels

What features/storylines would you like to see in the game?

The Premise: You choose the element you are born into, make choices that influence the world around you and your journey to becoming the Avatar. The trials and tribulations you will have to face in your future lives, are consequences of actions made in past lives.

Taking into consideration Wan was stopping a war between Fire and Earth benders before his death

One could assume Fire and Earth benders both occupied the middle continent, which is now known as Earth Kingdom

Around 5,000 years later in Sonams era, Air benders were being wiped out by Earth benders

How long did the war for land go on?

I feel like the answer has to lie within a sub bending - either Lava Bending or Spiritual Healing (like the fire sages did to Korra)

If the continent where Fire Nation resides was literal active volcanos and home to/came through many spirits, I feel like only an Avatar could unify/colonise the Fire Nation

But where would Zalir fit into this? It’s said she takes place before the unification, but maybe she invented some Sub Bendings? And an Avatar soon after unified Fire Nation

Mostly what the title suggests

In my opinion, people are extra hard on Korra because she’s a woman. If Korra was “born” a man, people would probably defend them like crazy. I’m glad Seven Havens didn’t just go back to a male protagonist to make a loud part of the fandom happy

In 2019 Kevin Fiege pitched these movies/series as “post Avengers: Endgame era”, and simply called it “Phase 4”. The phrase “Multiverse Saga” hadn’t even been made public yet - obviously they had plans for multiverse shenanigans, but it seems COVID truly messed with a lot of potential stories

Even though Alice passing on with Death/Rio is one of my favourite scenes, it still hurts!! Alice deserved SOO much better

My girl just broke the curse that haunted her bloodline for centuries :(

I guess in a way The Road did give every witch what they desired

Vision has such a crazy storyline through the multiple entries

- Originally was supposed to be Ultrons final form

- Vision than became a version of JARVIS (?) but with his own subconscious because of the mind stone, AND he still has some Ultron within him

- Wanda destroys the mind stone killing him

- Thanos reverses time and rips the stone from his head

- The parts of Visions original body are deconstructed and reconstructed by SWORD to make White Vision, and then SWORD also uses remnants of Wands magic to “activate” White Vision

- AND THEN “fake-Wandas Hex version” of Vision fights White Vision, enters a metaphorical debate, and then “fake” Vision restores White Visions memories

But how Vision can White Vision even be, if the memories he has are from Wandas version of Vision. Probably what the new show is going to dive into, but still SO messy

After light was born, darkness followed

In the chaos emerged the hope for peace

The earliest memories of living things depict an eternal battle between light and dark, when one won, the other was reborn, to die and be born again. A pattern that went on eons, so much so the oldest living things cannot comprehend time, as time itself is a constant repeat of the past, where the present is a glimpse at the future. The beginning dawns the end of a cycle

Raava and Vaatu existed as physical manifestations of the Spirits of Peace and Chaos for a thousand lifetimes, but in order to be free of their earthly bounds, one must understand the other

Raava and Vaatu were engaged in a never ending war, destined to destroy each other but unable to live without the other, bonded to each other for a thousand lifetimes

In order to bring forth a new cosmic order and restore balance to the world, one must embrace the chaos, because than a hope for peace is born

Every Avatar and the lesson they learned was invaluable, but destined to destroy itself, because in order for new life to be born, the old must be untethered

Brew some tea, sit back, relax and enjoy

I'll be discussing The Last Airbender, Legend of Korra, Legend of Aang (movie) and the Seven Havens trailer

I'll originally be talking backwards through Vishnus Avatars, before rounding back to the end and talking about the future/beginning. In Hindu cosmology, it is believed time is cyclical, rather than linear, time is existing in a repeating circle or constant pattern

Brahma is the creator of all living things

Vishnu is the preserver

Shiva is the destroyer

The tale goes, one day Vishnu and Shiva were arguing, than Braham stepped in with a beacon of light, from than on the three joined forces in the Trimurti

If we translate this into Avatar and my post here:

The elements were created, energy bending was created, Raava and Vaatu were born and started their endless battles in pursuit of opposite goals

With Raava, Vaatu and the Lion Turtles, the incarnations of each other and all living things, working together, humanity and spirits flourished

With the elements existing, and humans starting to be born, die and reborn, the elements and the people possessing them start to form their own cultures and ideologies

Until Wan was born, a human granted the elemental power of fire, an element about control and restraint, Wan befriended spirits and the animals that roamed the wilds, his previous lives and their futures. Wan became friends and lived as every living thing

When Wan fused with Raava, the universal scales were tipped towards Raava, as Vaatu was locked away in the Tree of Time for 10,000 years

5,000 years later, Sonam was born into the element of air, an element about wanting to end the cycle of being reborn

5,000 years later, Korra was born into the element of water, an element about change and wanting to be reborn

Some time later Pavi and Nisha will be born, into the element of earth, an element about maintaining cosmic order

If Korra was holding Raava and Vaatu inside of her, she would’ve been torn apart by the want for peace, but need for chaos

If one or both of the twins represent peace and chaos, both with their own version of cosmic order, fuelled by cosmic power - I believe the scales will balance out once again

But not without great destruction wreaking havoc onto the world first

There could have been many incarnations between each of ‘Vishnus Avatars’, but I believe the Avatars I pointed out, represent bookmarks / historical benchmarks that represent “Vishnus” / The Avatars / Raavas growth and evolution

After Wan, I believe many Avatars tried to master the four elements and reach enlightenment, but all failed until Sonam

And than after Sonam many 6/Kuruks, 7/Kyoshis, 8/Szeto, 9/Yangchens lived but never were able to break the cycle

Until Roku, Aang, Korra

The elements and what they represent are integral to the growth of Raava, Raava had to master the four elements “a thousand times” to understand the responsibilities of being the savior to humanity and holder of sacred knowledge

I don't believe an Avatar was destined, I believe they were all humans doing their best with their cosmic powers, ultimately they all made mistakes and every lesson was valuable, but I do believe fire was fated to fuse with Raava, air was supposed to restrains ones enlightenment, water was meant to hold Raava and Vaatu, earth was supposed be the beginning of a new era

The “cycle” and order of the elements is integral to Avatar and the lore behind the mysterious world, while no potential future was certain, I believe there’s a pattern and an eventual return to the beginning

Vaatu will regrow inside Korra

Korra will perform a ritual to subdue Vaatu

An unnatural disaster will follow

Korra will die

The cycle continues
