If I had a nickel for every big name Harry Potter fanfic writer who started their own cult, Iâd have two nickels. Which isnât a lot but itâs weird that it happened twice.
Oh man, are we talking about Snape wives?? I because every time I remember them I just have to stare off into the distance for a while.
Iâd have three nickels.

*giant wind gust outside*
Me: âDonât say it.â
My Brain:
reblog to cure the stomachache of the person u reblogged this from
me remembering that luke and rey didnât even have a good relationship and we didnât get to see them as a parental relationship or even as friends
cant believe they expected us to believe luke saw rey; a lonely kid from a desert planet dreaming about finding her parents, struggling with her identity, and dealing with the weight and pressure of bringing back the jediâŚ. and he didnt want to help her. not only that, they also made them argue the whole time. SICK
the real luke skywalker would meet rey and be like oh i know you. iâm your dad now. i can teach you three things: how to Force, how to make the perfect cup of hot chocolate, and how to destroy fascists. letâs go do barrel-rolls in x-wings
the way the real luke skywalker would have taken a single glance at that feral desert girl and been like. "my child now." come here girl I'll teach you how to build moisture vaporators so you never have to exploit yourself for water. yes this is more important than jedi training. yes we can cover that later. oh you want to fight kyle? oh you're struggling with the idea that he might still have a soul? ok learn from my mistakes and don't lose a hand in a fight you can't win, but also did i tell you about the time i beat my dad's ass so hard he bounced back to the light side? funny story actually,
all of this in the 10 minutes after she gives him anakin's lightsaber
Rey: i was abandoned by my family on a backwater desert planet and waited for them for most of my life before a droid and the man who would become my best friend showed up and i chose to leave everything i knew behind in order to help save them and help the rebellion. i am very strong with the force and want to learn in order to protect the ones i love but my own capacity for darkness scares me. i need help understanding who i am and what my power means
Luke:
the force: here, have an apprentice who's a metaphorical narrative mirror for you. she needs guidance and a mentor figure.
luke: oh you mean my new daughter
the force: what
Rey: here dad meet my friends
Luke, meeting orphan mechanic rebel rose tico, pilot with a flair for drama poe dameron, and man who chose goodness in the face of overwhelming evil and is powerful in the force finn: oh you mean all my new kids
luke, talking to the force ghosts of the jedi council: so my first apprentice grogu has a mandalorian dad right? and he told me about how he rescued him and adopted him and how that's custom for mandalorians, right? to adopt the children they rescue. so THEN i got hit with a tax bill for religious organizations and i thought you know what doesn't get taxed? children. like when you have a child. you're not paying the government for having a child. SO i thought you know what i ain't payin the government shit-
force ghost obi-wan: but isn't leia the chancellor?
luke: EXACTLY imagine paying taxes to your sister!!! i'd rather die. anyway that's how i ended up with 15 children. they're all skywalkers.
yoda: force-sensitive, some of them are not.
luke: yes. your point?
@softieskywalker you canât just leave absolute gold in the tags

Marvel Comics #1000: Weâre Calling Him Ben
I feel this is an important addition. He saves so many people on a regular basis that this just keeps happening. And he feels so much for his uncle that the answer is always the same.
âŚ. This hits different when you realise heâs canonically Jewish
Can you please elaborate ? Iâm curious as to what it means
You can read a pretty good summary of it here, but as (most likely) Ashkenazi Jews, PP probably follows the minhag (custom) that says âthat by naming a newborn child after a deceased loved one, the soul lives on through the child.â (Quoted from the site linked above.) And given how his Uncle Ben died, it just makes it all the more sadder tbh.
another fine distinction is that the soul isnât thought to be reincarnated, itâs that the memory of the loved one is kept alive and more good deeds in life can be inspired by (and thus partially attributed to) the dead. âmay their memory be a blessingââthe memory of the deceased is honored, respected, and who they were is retold as inspiration to the next generation.Â
benâs memory is a blessing. thatâs extremely jewish. spiderman is inspired not just by the shame of his death, but by the moral teachings heâd given peter in life. and his name given to these babies is another part of it: babies named in spidermanâs honor are also very honestly and truly named in his honor, and continue to be blessings to the world.Â
itâs very joyous, i think. very sweet. Â
I swear to God I get happy tears every time I see these panels, and the commentary makes it even better
Broke: vulcans donât play games, as they are illogical
Woke: vulcans absolutely play games as resting so as to recuperate after exertion is highly logical and they have a marked preference for the Terran game, chess
Third eye slaming open at 4:27am: vulcans love poker. They wonât mention it and theyâll justify it but after first contact they descended on poker like a murder of starving ravens as a unified cultural phenomenon
I donât watch Star Trek really but âCompetitive emotional suppression with probability assessment and observation skillsâ is the most Vulcan leisure activity I can imagine.Â
everyone who reads this post will get some big spicy joy within 24 large minutes (hours)
Ok y'all but like Iâm not even kidding about this I read this post yesterday and today I got an email from the peeps at hamilton and I won the lotto gor $10 tickets and I would like to give all my thanks to the internetâs favorite fish, Goldie Gurston, for making this possible because I totally believe they did this with their amazing gay powers
So I know this is likely a coincidenceâŚbut I reblogged this and just now discovered Iâve been given a $150 amazon gift card as a bonus at work. So thank you, fish!
If it worked for them I hope it works for everyone else
Some big spicy joy pls
SOME BIG SPICY JOY PLEASE
S o m e B i g S p i c y J o y
Can I get it too?
Canât hurt to try
Picture this, you're stressed out because Covid and climate change finds you out of a job and now you can't pay for dental work so as you listen to the hold music to the dental clinic to cancel your wisdom teeth surgery you log into tumblr to calm your nerves only to be greeted by a Destiel meme informing you that the word flashing is banned and you realise fellow tumblr users can't use a warning for post that could trigger your epilepsy. Imagine this, you're now afraid and there's nothing you can do, no tag to filter out, no warning to safe you.
the phrase âpulsing lightsâ has been suggested as a workaround. I know I will be using it. Your safety is important to me.
!!!!! I don't care if you've already rebloged this, reblog again and get the phrase 'pulsing lights' on blast to save an epileptic's life. This is a serious matter and should be brought to staff and apples attention !!!!!
Holy shit guys, I wasn't expecting this to blow up, over 7.5k notes in less than 12hrs. I wish I could've worded it better and not some angry self-indulgent rant when I originally posted it but thankfully I've gotten so many helpful comments/tags from so many users on here.
As frustrating as it is to have to filter out many tags instead of just one or two specific tags, I have been able to find different work arounds from the wonderful ppl who have rebloged my original post. Here are some I've seen meantioned a few times.
Strobe alert
Eye strain
Eyestrain
Strobing lights
Epilepsy warning
Strobe lights
Also, and I haven't really fact check this for obvious reasons, but adding a period (.) at the end off the work "flashing" is a good work around too.
Please do not use 'epilepsy' tag as a warning, for epileptics use that tag to communicate about their own health within the epileptic community.
it's time for â¨GLAM SALSAâ¨

How come a badger would fuck up a coyote
you wouldnât necessarily clock this from just looking at one, but all species of badger are basically just little fucked-up biological TANKS with hearts full of murder.
adorable murder.
to start with, badger skin is so tough that it can resist most attempts by other predators to bite through it, and is also very loose so that even if itâs grabbed by a larger creature, the badger can still turn around and bring its own claws and teeth into the situation!
which is very bad.
and on top of this, badgers are STUPID strong and ridiculously hardy- badgers can shrug off just about any injury that doesnât kill them outright and will immediately seek retribution by attempting to open you up with those big ol claws like a can of beans being fed into an industrial shredder.
badgers can even 1v1 fucking BEARS and walk off without a scratch, theyâre that op.
no, I was not kidding.
the coyote, a fragile creature built for speed and maneuverability, would stand NO chance if it tried to start shit with the badger, and they both know it.
My favorite quote: âBadgers are what happens when evolution wants to make an alligator, but all it has to work with is a weaselâ
Badgers can also outrun horses in a sprint. They give zero fucks and are just amazing critters.
We could have just let badgers have this planet, why didnât we do that?
To Wong Foo Thanks for Everything, Julie Newmar (1995)

This was such a formative movie
This shit was revolutionary for the mid-90s. Among other things it helped me understand that transgender and cross-dressing were completely separate things.
To this day, I am in awe of the fact that Patrick Swayze not only campaigned hard to get the audition, not only auditioned in dress and makeup, but spent most of the day leading up to the audition walking around LA in dress and makeup.
This was a man who could sing, dance, act, ride a horse, fight, and walk in heels, he had nothing to prove to anyone, and he is MISSED.
Okay, Iâm not done feeling about this.
If youâre younger, you may not know Patrick Swayze; he was Taken From Us in 2009. But Patrick Swayze was an icon of masculinity. Men were willing to watch romantic movies because Patrick Swayze was in them.
Patrick Swayze was fucking beefcake.
And this man didnât just agree to do a movie where the only time heâs not actually in drag is the first three minutes, which involve stepping out of the shower, doing make up, and getting Dressed. He has ONE LINE that is delivered in a manâs voice, and itâs not during those three minutes.
And if you watch those three minutes, you see a stark difference between his portrayal of Miss Vida BohĂŠme and Wesley Snipes as Noxeema Jackson. (I am not criticizing Snipesâ performance. They were different roles.) Noxeema was a comedy character. Chi-Chi was a comedy character. But Miss Vida BohĂŠme was a dramatic role, played by a dramatic powerhouse.
When Vida sits down in front of the mirror, she sees a man. And she doesnât like it.
Then she puts her hair up, and her face lights up.
âReady or not,â she says. âHere comes Mama.â
And while Noxeema is having fun with her transformation (at one point breaking into a giggling fit after putting on pantyhose), Vida is simply taking pleasure in bringing out her true self. And when sheâs done, she sees this:
And you can FEEL her pride.
All of this from an actor who, up to this point, walked on to the screen and dripped testosterone.
It matters that this happened in 1995. It wouldnât fly today, wouldnât be the right choice, weâve moved past it, but it mattered and was important that it happened the way it happened today. Itâs one of the stepping stones.
My hot take is that actually food allergies are a disability and more people need to realize that. The amount of research people with food allergies have to do when they want to go visit places but arent sure if theyâll have access to any food there is insane. Allergy friendly food is almost ALWAYS incredibly expensive in stores bc of all those fucking fad diets that like yoga instructors and middle age soccer moms make popular. And on top of the price, it is so hard to FIND! Almost evrry grocery store ive been to has a tiny ass allergy section that is almost always near empty. Plus what about people who donât have the money to pay 10$ for a loaf of bread? You go to starbucks and non-dairy milks are like 70 cents extra? People are definitely out there buying and eating stuff that is destroying their digestive systems because they have no other choice. I am begging people to stop pretending that catering to peopleâs food allergies is elitist and not worth is. We need to make these options openly available.
And this is one of several reasons that I firmly hold the opinion that prohibiting people from bringing their own food into sports stadiums and amusement parks and hotels is an accessibility issue, and should be treated as such. Concession stands and hotel restaurants do not and cannot provide enough choices to accommodate every possible food allergy or intolerance, and that means not letting people bring in their own food = not letting people eat while theyâre there.
(Side point: itâs also a religious discrimination issue â and itâs even more trouble when religious dietary restrictions and health-related dietary restrictions overlap. Iâve been in the center of that particular venn diagram and it sucks.)
There was a court case which ended up mediated and established that if a facility doesnât provide food you can eat, they have to permit you to bring your own. It was specifically about celiac.
If you have a food allergy or other digestive issue, it is covered under the ADA update of 2008.
Come armed with paperwork. Call or email ahead. And remember these magical words:
âI am requesting a Reasonable Accommodation for my disability.â
One of my go-to moves is an email like this, a week or two ahead of a visit or an event:
Hello,
I am writing to request an accommodation for my disability from your facility. I will be attending X on Y day with my family. I have celiac disease and must eat specially-prepared food from a âsafeâ kitchen. Celiac disease is an ADA-recognized disability and the ADA provides for me to be able to bring my own food to any facility that cannot provide me with food I can eat.
Since X does not have a dedicated gluten-free kitchen, what is the least-stressful way for me to bring my own food to X on Y day? I am happy to bring whatever paperwork is necessary to show security, please just let me know what you need!
Thank you in advance for your help.
Approach it as though your right to have safe food, and that clearly the people in question are going to help you. Make clear that you know the law, but donât be a dick about it. State as fact that theyâre going to let you bring food in, and what you are negotiating is how to make that easy on everyone. State as fact that the kitchen isnât safe, if thatâs the case, and make clear that you are happy to bring paperwork or otherwise work with them to make this accommodation easy on them.
Enforcing the âno outside foodâ rule usually falls on the people making the least money. If you approach this from the perspective of âhey weâre both in kind of a shitty situation here, I just want to eat and not shit my pants for hours or asphyxiate or whatever,â then usually things will go pretty easily. Every once in a while youâll run into a total dick and youâll have to go over their head, but⌠usually you wonât need to as long as you prepare the way.
[ID: Text that reads: âThe ADA will allow you to bring your own gluten-free food to places where safe food wonât be available. Professional mediators helped to decide a case in New Hampshire involving a tour train operator that refused to allow a passenger with food allergies to bring her own food. Ultimately, the tour train operator revised its policies to make them more accommodating to people with allergies.â /End ID]
The point of officially naming a pet is not to actually use that name but to have a baseline from which to come up with every conceivable nickname to call them instead.
You bury a seed not because it looks nice in the dirt, but because the limbs that branch out will look nice in the sky

When youâre sorting the tank filters and a big boye wants cuddles.Â
(Source)
âGotta make sure they are cherishedâ
Someone with a degree in biology please explain this, is the grouper really cruising for cuddles or are we misinterpreting its behavior?
Because it looks awful cuddly is what Iâm saying
Fish are WILDLY intelligent and many are so social that they naturally have social behaviors for interacting with other different species as a whole reef-wide community!! When it comes to interaction with humans, many fish can learn to recognize specific humans and increasingly seek attention such as scratches, rubs and simple play behaviors!
@linddzz can you confirm the fishy desire for skritches?
Iâve had a 4ft goliath grouper come up to me and stare reproachfully until I started giving her scritches and gravel showers. Picking up handfuls of the gravel and gently dropping it over their back is a nice fish massage. We encourage the behavior bc itâs a great time to check over them for any health concerns.
Also this looks like maybe a diver helping with a gravel vac tube. Basically a big siphon used to take junk out of the bottom of tanks.
But yeah this is pretty standard grouper neediness lmao
My betta fish used to love getting little pets
Iâve had 5-6 bettas over the years that have enjoyed cuddles. Half of those would do just about anything to swim into my hand or butt up against my fingers during tank cleaning to âaskâ for attention. Fish are smart and some species are very, very sweet if they happen to imprint on you.
Brings new meaning to the concept of âpet fishâ
