capitalism intentionally hides structural inequity & overemphasizes personal responsibility…there is a reason we all have anxiety and depression..you are put at personal fault for harm done in mass amounts by corporations & institutions
UGH yes! our bodies literally did not evolve to be this stressed 24/7 and have cortisol breaking down our bodies for not being able to afford rent. human bodies are simple. we need food, water, shelter, and social support. human bodies can get food, water, shelter, and social support if there weren’t all these systems in place to stop us. instead, a lot of us panic about being able to pay rent every month while jeff bezos probably wouldn’t bother to pick up a 100 dollar bill because it literally wouldn’t be worth his time
(1/3) “I grew up in segregated Suffolk, Virginia in the 1950’s. My elementary school had two rooms, two black teachers, and six grades. I could never go downtown and shop in the stores. I could never go to the movies. I could never swim in the local swimming pool. But we never cared about that stuff because we had a creek behind our house, and we didn’t have money for movies anyway. My mother never let us accept the fact that we were poor. There were seven of us, but we always wore shoes, not sneakers. Mom wasn’t exactly the ‘lovey-dovey’ type. She never used a switch on us, but she loved to use an example. Every action in our house had an equal and opposite reaction. In 1964 the World’s Fair came to town, and my high school band was invited to give a concert for the governor. My mother gave me money to take my uniform to the cleaners. But I never did it. And she never let me go to that concert. Before she died I drove her to the hospital, and I told her: ‘I’m still mad at you for not letting me go to the World’s Fair.’ She didn’t answer me, but she had this gleam in her eye that said: ‘You learned your lesson.’ And she’s right. Those examples made me the man I am today. I’ve literally done everything I wanted to do as a kid. I may not have been to the World’s Fair, but I’ve been to Ghana. I’ve been to the Caribbean. I’ve travelled all over the world.”
“Crayola ColorCycle will accept all brands of plastic markers, not just Crayola markers. That includes dry erase markers and highlighters! ColorCycle will eliminate placing hundreds of tons of markers into landfills.”
There do seem to be some limits, however, as far as I can tell, anyone can ship in a box of markers. “Any sturdy cardboard box with minimal outer markings will work. The more markers you ship, the more efficient this program will be. We suggest a minimum of 100 markers and a maximum of up to 40 pounds.”
“I have never been able to understand people with consistent lives – people who, for example, grow up in a liberal Catholic household and stay that way; or who in junior high school are already laying down a record on which to run for president one day. Imagine having no discarded personalities, no vestigial selves, no visible ruptures with yourself, no gulf of self-forgetfulness, nothing that requires explanation, no alien version of yourself that requires humor and accommodation. What kind of life is that?”

“My dad comes from a place called Morocco that even my friends don’t know about. It takes a whole day to get there. It’s a little country with a little amount of people and little buildings made of sand. At night there are a lot of bugs. The people are nice but you can’t understand what they’re saying. And they’ll give you food that you don’t know about. But if you go into a store that’s owned by one of your dad’s friends, sometimes you’ll get extra candy.”
TO EVERYONE INTERESTED IN AUDITIONING FOR THE LIVE-ACTION AVATAR: THE LAST AIRBENDER SERIES ON NETFLIX:
.
We greatly appreciate your interest and enthusiasm, but we are not yet at that stage in the production.
.
There will be an OPEN CASTING CALL, likely sometime later this year. When that happens, we will publicly share the information for how to *officially* apply.
.
Until then, please refrain from tagging, commenting, DMing, etc. your auditions — I don’t check that stuff and no one else at Netflix does either. We’re not casting via social media and I don’t want anyone wasting their time and energy. Put it towards working on your audition instead. Good luck!
.
Thanks, Bryan
It definitely sounds like they’re not very far in production yet, since this announcement just says “likely” sometime later this year. They did only just move into Netflix’s offices. This also officially disproves those very early Zuko casting rumors.
