Okay but honestly fucking shit like this when they show Zukoโ€™s scar side when talking about Sozin and then having the bar pass and have his non-scar side when Iroh says Roku is his great grandfather if EXACTLY the kind of shit that elevates this show to where really no other show has ever come and probably never will
I mean if you frame it in a photo it looks much better, in reality it was a moving shot. Still nice but not amazing. What really is an amzing shot is this
Who is realy imprisioned here? The way this shot is framed makes it clear that Zuko is in a prison of his own mind. In fact you can look at how Zuko and Iroh are generally framed in this scene
Zuko:
and Iroh:
Even in shots where Iroh is framed together with the iron bars he is far removed from them while Zuko is right in front:

What takes the cake though is the following shot sequence:
When it shows Iroh it zooms in from this:
To this:
While with Zuko itโ€™s the exact reverse. It zooms out from this:
To this:
Say what you want but man Avatar had some amazing shot composition.ย 

Also the reason The Last Airbender was better than Korra is because atla had Zuko and Iroh, while Korra didnโ€™t. Fight me.



In addition to this scene being very well done, the whole The Avatar and the Firelord episode is just genius.  It just makes the parallels between Zuko and Aang so much more powerful in retrospect.  They werenโ€™t on parallel paths just because.  They were on parallel paths because theyโ€™re two parts of one lineage: Rokuโ€™s Fire Nation lineage and his spiritual-mediator Avatar lineage.  And throughout the series the two of them are paired up through visual language, and the show even goes as far as match-cuts between the two of them as theyโ€™re in different locations and different fights.  I forget where, but I KNOW thereโ€™s a shot where Aang is dodging in a fight and basically running towards the viewer and it cuts straight to Zuko doing the exact same thing, like theyโ€™re two enactments of one story.  
And the twin blades?  Zuko himself says theyโ€™re two halves of a single weapon, and shouldnโ€™t be thought of as separate.  The twin blades which we really first see in The Blue Spirit storyline, in which Aang asks Zuko if they COULD HAVE BEEN FRIENDS.  Itโ€™s been stated that the blades represent the good and evil parts of Zuko, but isnโ€™t that just a direct result of him grappling with his lineage, which is directly tied to Aang?
In conclusion: I am not ok and will never be ok.  Thanks Avatar.

NEW ORE?!?!? NO WAY
AND ITโ€™S BETTER THAN DIAMOND?!!?!??!

Alright, Iโ€™ve had the chance to play around in the nether for a while and Iโ€™ve learned more about how this stuff worksโ€ฆ
So, while netherite is better than diamonds, it is prohibitively rarer than obtaining diamonds is. The way you get netherrite is by finding these โ€œancient debrisโ€ blocks that generate below ~25 on the y level, (I found theyโ€™re most common around y levels 10-16 or so, the lowest I saw them generate was y:7). They look like this:
They generate in ore veins of 1-3, I find that the veins of 3 are quite rare though. I also never saw them visible from the surface, but maybe it can happen sometimes. More often than not it looks like youโ€™ll have to use stripmines just to find them, though.
Once you find a vein of the stuff, I hope you brought a diamond pick, though- they can only be mined using diamond. I tried iron and gold, itโ€™s ridiculously slow with those and they donโ€™t drop, you need a diamond pick.
Once you mine it, you get just the ore form of it, like mining iron or gold ore (so, itโ€™s not affected by the fortune enchant). You can smelt it in a furnace or blast furnace to get โ€œnetherite scrapโ€, which is then used to make the ingots. You need gold ingots as well to combine with the scraps, like so:
Once youโ€™ve crafted up a netherite ingot, the way you use it in crafting recipes isnโ€™t quite what you might expect. Instead of using the ingots directly, you craft tools and armor from them like this:
Yup. You need to combine diamond tools and armor with the ingot to get the netherite stuff.
At the very least, it means you donโ€™t need a ridiculous amount of netherite just to be able to make anything, but you will need a lot more diamonds. Also, before you ask, no you donโ€™t keep the enchantments from the diamond armor if you use enchanted diamond while crafting- all the enchantments are lost when making netherite. Thatโ€™s ok though, because as the changelog post said, netherite is more enchantable than diamond gear is.
Netherite armor looks like this:
I think it looks pretty Sexy tbh
In addition, netherite items have a rather unique propertyโ€ฆ They donโ€™t burn in lava
btw, hereโ€™s what it looks like enchanted:
All in all. I am in love with this new ore thank you so much mojang we are truly blessed

So, I looked in the comments, expecting to see discourse or historical background etc, but I found none. Therefore, I decided to learn more and add background. Apparently this machine was used because of polio because polio paralyzes your lungs. According to the wiki article on this bad boy, patients would spend two weeks in there sometimes. They still have these machines, though much, much more modern but theyโ€™re barely used at all anymore:ย โ€œIn 1959, there were 1,200 people using tank respirators in the United States, but by 2004 there were only 39. By 2014, there were only 10 people left with an iron lung.โ€ (x)

Iโ€™ve read about one man who still lives in an iron lung. He taught himself how to breathe again by gulping down air, but itโ€™s quite laborious because of the paralysis. His name is Paul Alexander, and heโ€™s a lawyer. Heโ€™s 71 years old and has spent 65 years in an iron lung. Wild, right? Heโ€™s been working on a memoir that he was inspired to write by the recent resurgence of cases of polio caused by anti-vaccers.

Itโ€™s amazing to me to recognize that we only defeated polio in this past century - that my motherโ€™s father had it (he got lucky, it only deformed his feet and thereby kept him out of a couple wars); my mother got the big vaccination that left her upper arm scarred; and by the time I was vaccinated, polio basically didnโ€™t exist. My grandfather must have been born like around 1900, so - in the space of less than 75 years, this was no longer something that parents dreaded the possibility of every summer.

In the 1950s, my mother would go to the corner shop. The owners had a daughter a few years older than my mum. She lived in an iron lung in the back of the shop.Vaccinate your fucking kids.
