That fact that anyone working with food in America doesn’t have guaranteed paid sick days is a health hazard to the public.

no but for real, the CDC has said the leading cause of foodborne illness is the lack of sick days for people who work in the food industry and that it costs billions a year to the economy.

My mom has been preaching about being pro-Hillary for like 90 years.  SO TODAY I made her take this quiz which asks you a bunch of questions about your personal/political beliefs and matches you with the candidate that sides with your issues most.  So she takes the quiz and her highest match was 98% Bernie Sanders.  Hillary? 83%,  Which isn’t terrible, but fuck!  There’s a candidate that you agree almost 100% with and you’re not gonna vote for him?  Now she’s questioning her vote.  That’s a good thing.  Please take this quiz you guys.  It’s called isidewith.com and it is so helpful ESPECIALLY*** for young voters who don’t know a lot about issues.  WE NEED YOUR VOTES MY YOUNG FRIENDS.  This guy could seriously change our country for the better.  Even if you don’t vote for Bernie, take the quiz anyway because it will help you figure out the candidate for you.  It’s not that long and it’s REALLY IMPORTANT!

I got Bernie too

I got 95% Bernie Sanders. I figured. This was neat.

I really hate this post bc i really disagree with it and I think it makes a bigger impact that a Hufflepuff was the Hogwarts Champion than if a Slytherin was bc Hufflepuff is the house that is treated the worst in canon (and in fanon too). Malfoy says he would rather leave Hogwarts than be in Hufflepuff and Hagrid says that Hufflepuff is full of duffers (or something like that). So I really think it was a big deal that Cedric (a Hufflepuff) was the Hogwarts Champion bc really Hufflepuffs deserve way more recognize than they get by everyone.

Yes! The whole point was that in-universe, Hufflepuff got so little recognition or respect that even a House defined by its adherence to fairness seemed to feel is was kosher to mock Harry because they believed he was hogging the spotlight. In terms of the narrative, Slytherin might have gotten the short straw, but in-universe, Hufflepuff was the house of the despised, the disrespected, the ‘also-rans’. Cedric being the champion had been the ray of hope for them.

Straight person: I like this cause its so realistic. Gay people don’t just talk about how gay they are all the time. Their sexuality is never brought up just like in real life because whats important is they are people not the gender they love

Actual queer person: I’m so gay guys. Like really really gay do you realise how gay I am? Sometimes I lie awake at night thinking about how fucking gay I am my gay potential is through the roof god save my queer soul

87% of my humor stems from my sexuality

minerva mcgonagall deciding not to go into retirement after seeing james sirius isn’t quite as bad as either of his namesakes or his father and is silently relieved because sure, he does some pranks but he also really loves transfiguration and adores learning and tends not to disrupt class. and she figures albus and lily luna can’t possible be worse. and she’s right about albus for the most part, the kid is quiet, if with a tendency to wander the castle after hours

but lily luna

oh god

minerva thought she was safe. but lily luna potter is the biggest menace she has ever seen in the smallest body. lily aces her classes and still manages to have at least three running pranks per school day. lily, backed by her pseudo maurauders molly and lucy weasley as well as the combined genius of the scamander twins. lily who wins the maurauders map from her brother within the first week of first year using a very cleverly planned game of exploding snap and some innovative taunting to get james to bet the map in the first place.

lily luna who is somehow her grandfather and her mother and her uncles fred and george all combined into one, with the evil genius and ambition worthy of a slytherin

minerva survives a few months before she decides to call it a day and leave asap. the scamander twins are amazed that lily calculated that retirement almost to the day
