you are pentheus from the bacchae by euripides, and you hold yourself so tightly wound together and so perfectly in place that even the slightest push will make you shatter. you are determined, you are headstrong, and you are addicted to pushing yourself to your farthest limits just to see when you’ll snap. you find comfort in tradition, order, and authority, because that’s where you are allowed to be blind to the darkness inside you. once in a while, give into the temptation and the chaos you keep denying yourself. it’s the only way to not be afraid anymore.

you are orestes from the oresteia by aeschylus, and you are haunted by a cycle of pain. you try your hardest to be a better person, but sometimes you wonder if you will stop feeling trapped by your past. you have a strong sense of justice, you are quick to protect and defend those you love, and you are not afraid to compromise your morals if that means you are settling the score. eventually though, the consequences of your deeds will catch up to you, but that’s okay, because sometimes looking your ugliness right in the eye is the greatest release.

I mean… true…

i- dont have words-

you are antigone, from the theban plays by sophocles. you are bold, unwavering in your morals and your passion, an unstoppable force of nature. but when you go head-to-head with an immovable object, your ideals can lead you to self-destruction. you are stubbornly resilient and fearless to a fault, and aren't afraid to stand alone in the face of death. antigone, in your quest for justice, don't forget: you are allowed to step back, to love life a little, to be young once more before soldiering on to the very very end. be selfish in your fierceness, just once.

yeah sounds like me </3 slice that watermelon babie </3 also archi thats such a mess are you okay </3 

This blog has become , for lack of a better word , very clunky

So I have decided to move all my non-fandom related shenanigans (memes, info posts, etc) to a blog I will be dedicating specifically to said shenanigans : @elailah

That being said, this blog will now only contain content from the fandoms specified in the bio, namely:

- Harry Potter (mainly darry and wolfstar/maurauder content)

- Avatar the last Airbender

- The Raven Cycle (when I finally finish the series dont @ me)

- Some All for the Game content, but the majority will be on my sideblog @king-fluffikins

- Red white and royal blue

- Brandon Sanderson’s Cosmere (mainly Stormlight, some Mistborn)

- The Umbrella Academy

- the old guard

And my writing, both fanfic and original (tagged #spoopy writes)

But since what I’m mostly here for is hp content, this will primarily be a Harry Potter blog ^-^ hopefully this makes me easier to follow lmao

Lily Evans and James Potter lay side by side in the flower filled meadow behind the former’s house, underneath an ancient oak tree. It was a tradition of theirs - every year on the 31st of August they would lie together, heads buried among the flowers and grass, staring up at the oranges and pinks of the clouds in the setting sunlight. Lily couldn’t believe this would be their last year at Hogwarts, and tried desperately to ignore the nagging impulse to turn and look at James instead of the clouds. 

Stormé DeLarverie was a black butch lesbian who threw the first punch at Stonewall.

she was known as the “guardian of the lesbians in the Village” and “the gay community’s Rosa Parks.“ 

she sparked the crowd, yelling: “Why don’t you guys do something?“ 

(for the record i do it half as much as i would like)

DO NOT:

Yell at them for three hours

Take away their devices and look through them

Make them sit in their rooms in silent and do their homework alone

Side with the teacher and not get your child’s side of the story

Tell them that their grades are the most important thing they should worry about

INSTEAD:

Ask if they’re having trouble with other students or teachers

Sit down with them and help them with what they don’t understand

Speak calmly instead of yelling

Don’t invade their privacy by looking through their devices

Don’t take away their hobbies as punishment

Never make them feel unsafe or unable to trust you

if you claim ally ship to the trans community then you can’t ignore the bad things that happen to especially trans woc. and if you’re a white trans person you can’t just talk about other white trans people. it just shows that you only care about trans people if they are white and that shouldn’t be the case.

“This has happened to me before,” she said. “I’ve been trans my whole life. I’ve been harassed and bullied my whole life. None of this is new, but it’s still just kind of like, ‘Who cares?’ and then ‘Why do you need to be aggressive?’”

At first, Cox said she debated sharing her story on social media and wondered what she “could have done differently,” before realizing “it’s not my fault that this happened.” She also thanked her friend, who immediately recognized that Cox was the “target” of the attack and deescalated the situation.

And here’s the Instagram live she posted talking about the incident

Guess who wasn’t tagged but did it anyway lol

Wasn’t tagged, don’t care 🥳

my hair color is much darker, this is more like it under the sun but its the closest thing i could find so it would do tehe
