Stuff I Do

STAR WARS:

As much as I love being indoors with my people, I’m pretty sure I’m solar powered.

Because I have never heard the words "oh god, it burns!" from anyone in this household.

The kittenballs sing the song of your people. 

I always assumed wizards just ignored science, because the fact that “magic” exists, can explain anything. But there are MuggleBorn wizards, ones who, until they were eleven, lived in the real world and learned science and things. Did they all just abandon that normal, muggle knowledge, like Harry did? It’s always been there, itching in the back of my mind.

FOUR FOR YOU SCIENCE WIZARD

like voldemort couldnt even do that shit

molly fuckin weasley couldnt fuckin do that

ALL her wizards are Science Wizards who don’t need fuckin wands

if I say her name three times can I summon her

Wow, I’m never buying anything Tony Harris does again. Disgusting.

It means I paid to get into that con.  Because he’s wrong.  The con exists because people paid to go to it.  Trust me.  I’ve seen con financials.  And if there are 5,000 people attending a con, and 4,500 of them are Twilight Sparkle fans who are there to discuss MLP, than the official stated intent of the con doesn’t make a damn bit of difference.  The fans pay the rent.  And the fans are fickle little creatures.

But Comic Book Writers and Comic Book Artists are no more than guests, used as a lure to encourage people to show up.  Very, very few people go to a con that they weren’t already planning to attend because of a particular guest.  There are the die hards.  There are the fanboys.  But most people go to their local cons, the cons they enjoy, in places they enjoy.

You know, where they can see their friends and go to the dealer’s room and catch a panel or two and trade cosplay tips and maybe get an autograph.

This pathetic, out of touch, desperate for relavance, has-been sitting at his table remembering how awesome things were years ago when he was IMPORTANT is exposing the usual fearful nonsense: that the world, and fandom, is changing, because people other than white males are making their voices heard.
