do you know where the wild things go?

there’s something so embarrassing about all the cast members in the new harry potter series that are openly being like “i want everyone to know i don’t agree with jk rowling’s views on trans people” like they think that will make up for them being on the show. maybe it’s just for the sake of their own consciences but it reads as “i know her views and actions harm people but i’m in it for the paycheck”. it’s not like this is just an adaptation of rowling’s work without her involvement, she is an executive producer on the show 😭 at that point just don’t say anything

oh my god I just saw the cutest thing in the world. little Black girl with beads in her hair for the first day of school and the beads were pink then silver then a bunch of yellow then beige then grey to make them look like pencils 🥺🥺🥺 brb I will draw an artist’s rendition

Hey guys you should totally get into this thing i like. Yeah it's mid at best. It also aged poorly. You'll get nothing out of it at all. You'll like the idea of it more than the actual thing. But at least only takes half your natural lifespan to finish it

hate the weird self-infantalizing “but i’m just playing with my dolls” shit people will pull in response to any critique of overall fandom trends, especially wrt racism, misogyny, transphobia, etc. very embarrassing to be a grown ass adult yet still so myopic and devoid of self-reflection

like in a way i do sympathize because being told that your thoughts and beliefs are more often a product of your context and not individual impulse is uncomfortable but at that point you have either the choice to put your head in the sand or take a minute to consider these things more deeply and it seems pretty clear to me which option is the more mature one

is it a natural and innate part of humanity or is it some shit they made up in europe

“i love how we as a fandom have just agreed that–” don’t include me in this. do NOT lump me in with that.

one of my favoriteeeee buddie things is when eddie is forced to say something to buck about HIS feelings. not chris, just him. and every word feels like it's dragging up blood with it, every syllable is gritted out or awkward, eyes not quite catching. 'it's not nothing'. 'you do matter to me.' not so easy when it's about you, is it? better to pretend that it's about anyone else, instead.
