Honestly, a pet peeve of mine when it comes to romance in shows is when there are two main characters that are planned to be endgame from the start, but the show runners don't want them to get together just yet so they have them date romantic false leads before finally ending up together with their "one true love." Even if I like the endgame couple, that type of writing dampens my enjoyment of them because I end up feeling bad for the people who liked the ships with the romantic false leads. Depending on the character, I also sometimes feel bad for the romantic false leads, because I would sure hate it if somebody was just dating me as a distraction because they couldn't be with the person they truly love. It almost feels to me like show runners write their romance plots like this to purposely start drama among their shipping fanbase, and as a shipper who's seen way too many stupid ship wars, it gets tiring.

In honour of the 2nd Hogwarts game being announced:
Now do not misunderstand me, I absolutely hate JKR and everything she stands for and I hope that bigoted cunt burns in hell.
But can we please stop attacking absolutely everyone who just as much as mentions Harry Potter or the games and screaming at everyone to "read another book" or calling everyone a transphobe without any evidence if that is even true as most people have no clue what that TERF is even doing? Because just look what that behaviour caused with the last game, where a shit ton of people bought the game purely because they were so fed up with everyone just being mindlessly attacked and dogpiled.
It is no wonder that so many who had been completely neutral about the topic and had been allies, decided to go "fuck them" when all they saw were people behaving like absolute lunatics and attack everyone. Because no one wants to stand by a group of people, when all they see from that group is the most toxic behaviour ever.
By all means educate people and advocate for trans rights. But stop using the situation as an excuse to just bully people while feeling morally superior and make absolutely everyone else look like a group of crazy morons.

What the Harry Potter boycott is supposed to be: Don't gove Rowling any more money, because she's donating it to shady causes. Do whatever else you want so long as you're not lining her pockets with cash.
What half the internet turned it into: SHOW YOUR MORAL PURITY BY REFUSING TO GAZE UPON THIS UNHOLY TEXT! HARASS ANYONE WHO EVEN MENTIONS THE WORD MUGGLE!
It's only a matter of time before the latter group completely forgets the purpose of the boycott and starts buying her books just to publicly burn them, lining her pockets just so they can look morally superior...just like when the series first came out.

We owe an apology to all those direct to VHS Disney sequels
At least the people working on those actually LIKED the thing they were making a follow up to instead of constantly bashing it.

"How could people not see the signs that Rowling was a bigot?!"
Because the main theme in the books was that discrimination is bad.
Harry was abused by the Dursleys for not being normal in book one.
Book two showed us that wizards sometimes discriminate against people who aren't "pure blood" and against squibs.
Book three had people assuming a framed man was guilty despite minimal evidence, as well as discrimination against people with medical conditions.
Book four had an entire subplot that was removed from the films where Hagrid was being violently discriminated against for being half giant. Also, please look up what SPEW actually is. It was the name of a British women's rights organization. The SPEW subplot was supposed to be about how feminism is supposed to be about giving women a choice rather than assuming all women want the same thing. It was basically an anti-Radfem plot.
Book five was about how politicians run smear campaigns and weaponize existing prejudice to turn the public against their political opponents (the books had a lot more of this, particularly Harry being accused of mental illness by ableists to discredit him), and are willing to turn a blind eye towards horrific actions and discrimination perpetuated by government officials so long as said officials side with the government. The movies also minimized how heavily the ministry was abusing its power by removing several violent scenes of police brutality.
Book six was a look at how people can turn to extremism, whether by choice or through pressure by those around them (another story the movies ruined because they focused too much on teen drama instead of Voldemort's backstory and how he became evil.)
Book seven is a bunch of WW2 parallels. There's a reason the fandom calls the Death Eaters "Magic Nazis" and Voldemort "magic Hitler"
The Fantastic Beasts movies were in part centered around old laws banning interracial marriage (Though Rowling seemed to not understand how the US government worked, otherwise she would have known that multiple states likely would have already made marrying muggles legal by the time the series takes place since that was the IRL case with interracial marriage, and thus Queenie could have just...convinced Jacob to move away with her... instead of joining an extremist group).
Of course we're going to be shocked when the person whose entire career was built around the message "discrimination is bad and you shouldn't trust the government" starts discriminating against a group of people and defending crap the British government does.

Shipping is all fun and games until the actual show writers try to do it, and turn it into the focus of the entire show at the cost of the main plot
Fandom Problem #13,574:
When a series infamous for sloppy inconsistent writing and dropping plot threads accidentally does something really moving and impactful and cool but you know you can't expect to ever see the vision fully realized. Ah well. Food for fic authors at least.
