Random Headcanon: The reason the Wizarding World in Harry Potter uses such arse-backwards technology isn’t cultural elitism. (Well, not entirely.) Rather, it’s because if you enchant anything more complicated than a screwdriver, it tends to become sentient over time. Devices that use electricity are particularly bad for this, and almost always “wake up” eventually. Arthur Weasley’s car going rogue and running off to live in a forest is actually a fairly favourable outcome; the students still tell horror stories about what happened to the guy who smuggled in (and subsequently enchanted) a digital wristwatch.
this is the best answer to this plot hole i’ve ever heard

40+ year old men who seriously believe the young girls working at stores and restaurants are actually flirting with them just because the girls smile and are friendly are the most disgusting and terrifying things on this planet.
i keep getting messages from men over the age of 40 who were upset by this post and i’d like to sincerely thank them for proving my point so effortlessly.

Alright, wait a second, hoooold up. Many sources are telling us that in the Civil War trailer, Iron Man says, “If we have no limitations, we’re no better than the bad guys.”
That jives pretty well with the Tony who, at the end of IM3, blew up all his drones after realizing meaningful things about weaponry and power. But how the merry fuck does that jive with the Tony Stark in Ultron who created not one, but TWO overblown robots that could have ended the world?
All I can summise is that we are being canonically asked to pretend Ultron never happened.
Let it be so.

let’s all stop for a minute and thank jk rowling for not making the golden trio a love triangle
You know it’s funny, because I read the HP series when I was…oooh, eight, I believe–blew through the first six books in four days (the seventh wasn’t out yet). And I read a LOT, now and then, every book I could/can get my hands on, so I was already WELL AWARE of the whole “three friends, BUT WAIT, one is a GIRL, and they do stuff get shit done whatever, BUT WAIT, both boys want to do the kiss and the sex and the date with her, BUT WAIT, she doesn’t know which one she wants to do the aforementioned activities with and so the friendship breaks down because the world is shitty and the boys can’t get past it.” And at the time I was like “what is this sort of sick feeling in my stomach” as I plowed through these FUCKING AMAZING books. And in retrospect I’m just like “that was you worrying a lot about a love triangle, honey.” And I’m still kind of bemused and delighted that my fears did not come to pass.
This has been the story of how Moran kind of fucking hates love triangles.

With help from a bunch of lesbians from youtube:
- “I think lesbians are smarter in a sense that we know what we want and we go for it, that’s why we’re gay”
- “so if you’re at a party and you see the hottest girl there who turns out to be bisexual, whats your reaction?” “that’s really unfortunate”
- “if she can make me laugh then I might be able to get past the fact that she had a dick in her mouth last week”
- “if you’re with a lesbian then you know that they’re going to be going for you, for a woman, but if you’re with a bisexual…”
and a special mention for personal experience:
- “I’ll have to keep a meter away from you tonight, otherwise you might make out with me haha”
- “I wanted to tell you that you looked good last night but someone told me not because you might make out with me”
we constantly get told not to attend pride unless we’re in a same sex relationship, get degrading comments from both the gay community and straight people, are told we aren’t ‘queer enough’ and that because we can pass as straight we don’t deserve a place in LGBTQ+ spaces.
get fucked.
to add to this: if you’re a bisexual dude people are straight up not going to believe you’re not secretly gay/in the closet
bisexual girls are fetishized and bisexual guys are considered liars

jobs are for survival, not for joy. not everyone has the luxury or pleasure of loving what they do. they do it bc it pays the bills and everyone needs to stop acting like everyone is supposed to love their job. if you love your job, you are lucky.

freedom of speech means that the government can’t imprison you for what you say, not that the rest of us can’t tell you to shut the fuck up
