not enough women stabbing each other to symbolize sex in the media actually
my job is to get drunk at family functions and judge people’s bookshelves
Top 10 favourite hp characters???
1. auntie muriel [she's firing out banger after banger from the second she arrives on the page and she sustains that level until the moment the wedding ends - fantastic energy, i love to see it]
2. that auld fella at the quidditch world cup who refuses to wear trousers [live your truth, king]
3. dawlish [both voldemort and dumbledore take the time to point out that he's completely incompetent and then the conclusion of his character arc is him getting fucking wrecked by an old lady]
4. mrs cole [day-drinking is a proud tradition and i'm delighted she honoured it - harry being genuinely impressed by how much she can put away is one of the funniest things he ever does]
5. the portrait in st mungo's which claims ron has spattergroit and which deserves to be thanked for clearly inspiring his cover-story in deathly hallows
6. gladys gudgeon, who doesn't abandon her devotion to lockhart, even after his brain injury
7. madam rosmerta [she manages to sustain her position as the hottest woman in hogsmeade over a period of at least twenty years - unmatched aura]
8. the employee at the owl office who received a postal order form from a cat and thought "legit"
9. piers polkiss [yer man finessed multiple day-trips out of the dursleys, what a #girlboss]
10. hagrid's dad [he walked so that the monster-fucking girlies on tumblr could run, and don't you forget it]
"it's all in your head" correct! unfortunately I am also in there
When someone you love offers a bid for connection, you say yes every time. When someone sends you an article, a video, a funny post, it’s a bid for connection. They are trying to connect with you. When someone shares details about their day, their life, their thoughts, or their feelings with you, that is a bid for connection. They want to connect with you on a deeper level. They are trying to pull you into their world. If you love them, you say yes every time. Yes, even if the article they send is not particularly interesting to you. Yes, even if it means listening to them ramble about a game you don’t care about and think is stupid. Yes yes yes. And let’s hope they always say yes to your bids, too.
I’m sorry I haven’t responded to your message if it helps I have though about responding 37484388338 times today
Not "humans are inherently good" or "humans are inherently evil" but a secret third thing (humans are inherently social animals which means that we're very good at cooperating and being compassionate towards those we perceive as being part of our community but we're also very good at being tribal and violent towards those we perceive as threats to our community and everyone defines their community differently)
legitimately my first feminist awakening as a ten year old child was realizing that girls were expected to respect “boy stuff” but boys were never expected to respect “girl stuff”
✨The Marauders Yap✨
it's here !! i did it !! y'all asked for a pod wayyyy back in july and i deliberated (stressed) for so long about it but ! it's here <3

Ep 1: The Importance of Fandom -> link here
this is the introductory episode so you know 🙂↕️ give him some grace 🙂↕️
i talk about how i got into the marauders fandom and what it looks like for me, and then about the importance of preserving these spaces given current events!
i yap about representation, community, and creativity and how these things are so so soooo important right now, and how we need to do our Best to keep them here <3

the next ep will be my jkr,,, thesis? dissertation. diss track. application for a defamation claim. whichever is your preferred term for it is, it's my jkr monologue!
but for now, i hope you enjoy listening to a 20 year old wizard fan with the technological skills of a caveman that's been confronted with chatgpt yap away about fandom spaces for 50 minutes !
and thank you @itsradla for the logo and banner <3 again, tech is my worst enemy <3
(guys fr like the sound is not great sorry ! it goes very back and forth because i figured out what was going wrong AS i was editing, so i fixed the worst bits?? but i didn't want to refilm all of it because i liked that it was unrehearsed and sparsely planned ! but i promise from here on out, my mic works and i will not sound like a lawnmower <3)
are you picky about food?
no, everyone eats skittles by first putting them in rainbow order and then selecting them in pairs from least delicious to most delicious
generally speaking when it comes to mental and physical health, if you're asked "do you struggle with this" and your answer is "no, Because I Have A System," then your answer is actually yes
