Sirius Black Was Willing To Die For James Potter.

when you're reading a aftg fic and the writers drop a "now Neil knew that it wasn't new news"

Brazil's Rio Grande do Sul is currently flooded

I don't make these kinds of posts, but Rio Grande do Sul (a brazilian estate) is going through its worst natural catastrophe in recorded history and I need everyone to know about this. Its currently looking like this:

What is going on

Most of Brazil suffers from yearly floods during the rain season. These floods most of the time aren't bad, with water going away a few hours later. Sometimes they are a nightmare, with people losing their homes and most if not all belongings. But this?

This is not fucking normal.

Currently (May 6th, 2024) there's +80 confirmed deaths and 873 thousand people are being affected by these historical floods. Eight hundred and seventy three THOUSAND people. Once again: THIS. IS. NOT. NORMAL.

Rio Grande has 496 cities, and currently, 364 are reporting problems related to this. It's almost the entirety of Rio Grande - and you know how big Rio Grande is? If you're from the USA, its just a bit bigger than Colorado, and just a bit smaller than Nevada. If you are European, Rio Grande is bigger than the United Kingdom. Can you imagine if almost the entirety of the UK was underwater? Because I sure fucking can just by watching brazilian news!

Rio Grande expects floods. It rains a lot in Brazil. What no one expect is having to deal with 2,30 meters - 7'7 feet for reference - ABOVE the expected flooding level, which is 3 meters (9'10 feet). This means that there were 5,26 meters (17'3 ft) of water. Chart for comparison:

I live in São Paulo, which is completely unaffected by what is going on over there, but I need people to be aware of this. Why?

The worst Wolfstar fanfic I’ve ever read ?

Oh definitely Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix

I don't care what anyone says. I'm defending Aziraphale for the rest of my life.

does anyone know the name of that wolfstar fic where sirius, james, peter and marlene are in a band, and marlene wants to have a biography so bad, so all of them agree, and lily calls remus to write it for them because he and lily were friends from college, so he will live with them for a while, and he gets so mad at sirius because he does not cooperate at all with his job?!?!?!?!?!??!?!!

I LOVED READING IT AND I CAN'T FIND THE LINK ANYWHERE PLEASE SOMEONE HELP ME I'M GOING INSANE

imagine being that good of a writer that, even in third person, you can describe your protagonist personality so well, that even we who have read Neil's pov for three books were shocked seeing how other people (Jean) see him

me reading a fic: ugh, canon neil would never do that

canon neil:
