I'm trying to be smart and keep my mask on, but I keep overheating

Bored as fuck so here’s (almost) every change in the everything is a lot 2020 remaster because I listened to the original version way too many times:
6up 5oh Cop Out (pro / con): the scatting part at 2:30 - 2:47 is quieter, the drums are louder
Skeleton Appreciation Day In Vestal NY (Bones): the conversation between the man and the woman at the end is way less static and more comprehensible
Front Street: the guitar in the background is more louder, more instruments have been added in certain parts of the song (mostly in the last 40-50 seconds of the song), the vocals are more quieter (as pointed out by galactic-mayhem), the ‘it’s always sunny in philadelphia’ audio clip has been removed, Will might’ve done a retake on the ‘step right up folks’ monologue because although it’s still the same it still sounds noticeably different in the remaster (or maybe that’s just me)
¡Aikido! (Neurotic / Erotic): added rock verse at the end
[Cover this song!] A little bit Mine: slight name change (original ver - “Cover This Song” (A little bit Mine)” 2020 remaster - “[Cover this song!] A little bit Mine”), changed audio sample at the beginning (changed from inaudible whispering [please let me know wtf it’s saying] to “why do you wanna kill me”), cut out the last 5 seconds of raw audio
Thermodynamic Lawyer, Esq G.F.D: removed “I hold myself in contempt” at the beginning and “Absolutely reprehensible behaviour” at the end, instrumental slightly changed, “foams at the mouth with a head full of acid” and “never came back from her last trip on jesus” are properly sung, the “cry like a baby with autism” line is now distorted, the ‘barren as mojave sands’ line has an echo effect (as pointed out by galactic-mayhem)
Red Moon: slight instrumental change, maracas were switched to a tambourine or some other instrument (as pointed out by willstapeworms) the vocals are more quieter (as pointed out by galactic-mayhem)
The First Step: instrumental has changed a bit, removed slap bass (as pointed out by galactic-mayhem), the chant (?) at the end has an echo effect at the end
Chemical Overreaction / Compound Fracture: removed “we can’t stop here, this is bat country” in the beginning
Everything is a Lot: split into two separate songs (everything is a lot, destroy to enjoy)
Edit: Added Red Moon, more changes in The First Step, more changes to front street, more changes to red moon, more changes to thermodynamic lawyer, more changes to cover this song, more changes to 6up 5oh

I personally think it’s very rude how people can’t really study martial arts for a living anymore. I mean, university is nice and all, but why can’t I spend my days living in my master’s attic or something, doing household chores in between bone-breaking lessons?

Modern AU Gaang Martial Arts Headcanons :) 🥋
Zuko:
He and Azula were forced into both Judo and Karate from a young age. Zuko constantly got frustrated with his katas and that his technique wasn’t perfect, while Azula was always angry that people didn’t want to spar with her because she was so aggressive. Despite their challenges (which included both of them breaking people’s bones by accidents), they both reached first-degree black belt. Zuko stopped attending when he moved in with Iroh, but Azula is a third-degree black belt. 
Toph:
She likes more physical arts, especially boxing and wrestling. She dabbled in taekwondo but the speed wasn’t her forte so she decided to go into boxing instead, and from there, she joined the school’s wrestling team and does BJJ on her own time. She’s gotten in trouble many, many times because she doesn’t care much for rules, and has a clean WR rate of 84-3. Like Azula, most people are too scared to spar her, but she isn’t as frustrated about it.
Sokka:
His first experience in martial arts was from a crappy mall studio where he went because his parents wanted him to learn self-defence. He was a big Karate Kid watcher when he was young, and tried lots of martial arts, though was the best at taekwondo. As he got older, he didn’t have much interest in it, and just had his dad teach him techniques at home rather than attend a school. Toph always insists on sparring him, and he agreed once, but it left him bruised for weeks, so he doesn’t dabble in it much.
Katara:
While originally not much of a fan, she was raised the same as Sokka: take martial arts to learn how to defend yourself. While he liked the fighting, she was more of a fan of the technique, like her mother was. When her mom passed, it only magnified the choice, and she kept at Karate for a few years while Sokka only dabbled. She got to brown belt before her dojo was shut down and, combined with the other stresses of life, she took a break. She still loves martial arts, though, and watches lots of videos about them. 
Aang:
He took a lot of Tibetan White Crane and tried a few other Chinese martial arts. He is skilled with the bo staff, too, and once he and Zuko became friends, they practised a lot of weapon sparring together. Aang’s marital arts practice involved a lot of conditioning, so he can do an impressively high amount of knuckle push-ups. He was taught mainly defence, which especially part of the reason he rarely won fights against Zuko, because he was often too afraid to attack, though that’s more of him being a pacifist than his martial art background. 
Suki:
While she mainly performed Aikido and Kendo, Tessenjutsu had always been her favourite. She has extremely fast reflexes from so much practice. Additionally, she started a martial arts club in her school and met Sokka through there. She was like a mix of Katara and Sokka, enjoying the fighting and cultural aspects equally. When she went to college, it was harder to find a place to train especially with such a packed schedule, but she makes time for it.

WN fandom's aikido facts of the day:
Traditional aikido has two belt colors, white for low ranks, and black for the three dan ranks. Some dojos will identify highest rank beginners with a brown belt. Some super americanized ones will use karate style rainbow ranks. (Gauche. Wrong. Ick.) Unlike sport martial arts, aikido testing also has time and seminar attendance requirements. Aikido counts down from 6th, until you hit black, then counts up to 3, like a negative to positive axis.
In brief, Beatrice would have needed to attend a minimum of 520hrs witnessed practice with a regular sensei, and 4 seminars to reach even shodan (1st degree black belt). But it's unlikely her school permitted her the travel necessary to meet test requirements, in which case she maxed out at nikkyu (2nd degree white belt).
It's even more unlikely that the OCS has an aboveboard sensei, and visibly obvious that she switched to jujitsu dominant mma once she joined their organization. So she's probably 2nd or 1st kyu (highest rank white belt) in aikido.
In a real life AU, she is old enough to have reached shodan and be working on her nidan (2nd degree black belt), accounting for the break created by switching dojos.

Mother Superion: Where is Camila? We need a tech savvy for a mission.
Bea: Ava and Camila were having a playdate, something about improving their aikido skills.
Lilith: And you didn't go with them to supervise?
Bea: they told me not to interfere.
Lilith: It’s too quiet for them to be sparring.
*They hear a big thud from the other room*
Lilith: I'm gonna kill Ava.
*Perspective from the other room*
Camila: Uh oh.
Ava: What?
Camila: I see an angry girlfriend heading our way.
Ava: Yours or mine?
Camila: Does it matter?
Ava: If it's mine, there's a chance we'll live, but if it's yours, I'M dead.
