When people start freaking out because some people still ship Steve and Robin although she came out as a lesbian. Like, most of the same sex ships that are wildly popular are not canon and can't be because the characters are straight. And I understand why people freak out and get all dramatic, but that doesn’t erase the fact that it's not okay. People ship whatever they want and that's fiiiine.
And did she really portray Hermione as a "pesky sjw" for trying to fight this system? GOOD GOD
Oh god did JK Rowling R E A L L Y create a fictional race of slaves that actually liked being slaves and - oh my- took it as a personal attack when you tried to tell them about the unfairness of the situation?
Good god.
Boston and Ray are parallels of each other as the rich and broken children of men who don't see them for who they are and who crave something they cannot get and so will fight desperately for what they think they can have whether that be sex or love or merely attention.
Nick and Sand are parallels of each other in what happens when they fall in love with the wrong person at the right time, who fell for the person with the most power to hurt them because the one they love is broken in a way that merely being loved cannot fix.
Top and Mew are... not parallels to anyone because they are opposites of each other and running alongside each other but in different directions, rushing to different ends but tied together against their goals.
Huh, I don’t really think that JK intended to portray Hermione as a white savior, because every rational character in the book dismisses her or shuts her up NOT because she’s trying to speak for elves but just because she’s trying to speak about the problem that exists. And we’re supposed to sympathize with the characters that are annoyed with her. In fact, I have no fucking idea what Rowling was trying to say with this. On one hand, everybody totally makes fun of Hermione for her activism because almost everybody thinks that elves being slaves is okay, and Hermione is just delusional because “elves are a race of servants”, which is sick. On the other hand, Hermione does try and free the elves by force (like wtf?), which fits into the white savior trope, but people who call her out on that are the ones that tell her that elves being slaves is fine. Seriously I can’t fully understand what the fuck Rowling was trying to convey. If she wanted her readers to see Hermione as a “white savior”, why didn’t she give any agency to elves and made them a race that is happy to be slaves and even offended when somebody mentions their possible freedom? I’m sO CONFUSED

I am so pissed off that every single tumblr playlist is on spotify and it's not available in my country
Don't mind me, I'm just going to blithely watch Parks and Rec to avoid the blatant lack of functionality in parts of real life
for real though Wikipedia is a great resource to get an overview of what you're trying to research and it gets too much flack for no reason
professors are always like “never use wikipedia as a source, anyone can edit that” but after going through 15 peer reviewed sources from jstor, i find the exact same info i got when i skimmed the wikipedia page
Because you haven't lost hope yet
so like if I cannot draw for the life of me someone plz explain why I attempt to do a bullet journal every year knowing with 100% certainty that I’m too much of a perfectionist to follow through
People wearing plain t-shirts to special occasions is my kink
Excuse me, if they don't put every single innuendo Jesper makes at Wylan in the show, i might just start to throw hands...
iconic moments that Must end up in the show:
“i. should. let. you. die”
jogs the liver
“i’m right here, father” (”has he been taking lessons from nina?” “maybe he’s a natural”)
“have a long trip down”
jesper’s oil presentation
kaz + puppies
