Just an blog for personal stuff

I like HP and I talk about it but I don't give money to JKR in any way. I don't support TERFs. She/Her, born in March 30, 2002. English isn't my first language.

[mostlyginger]

can we just talk about the time that Lupin was recovering from a full moon and Snape taught the DADA class and made all the students write essays on how to kill werewolves for Lupin to read when he got back I hate Snape so much it’s not funny

[mostlyginger]

Lupin gets back and he feels like crap and suddenly his best friend’s son is writing an essay about how to kill him like that is so fucked up

[take-my-eeveelution]

Bear in mind that an ex-Death Eater does this to someone who was in the Order, risked his life fighting against said Death Eaters and lost his best friends to the Death Eater’s genocidal leader, for the sole purpose of screwing him over, and as far as we know he experiences no consequences whatsoever for doing so.

[kn-rainbowblood]

And if that wasn’t enough, he made them write those essays hoping some of them would realize Lupin’s a werewolf. And one did, but Hermione is a fucking DECENT HUMAN BEING and said nothing. Apparently the ‘insufferable know-it-all' can keep her mouth closed, when it’s for something important. Just like Snape didn’t do at the end of the book.

I’m getting mad, so here’s something I’ve realized while reading The Order of the Phoenix again. (Please keep in mind that my books are in Italian and some concepts might be hard to explain, I apologize for my English mistakes)

In chapter 14, when The Trio talked with Sirius, he said that two years before Dolores Umbridge had written a law against werewolves that made it almost impossible for Lupin to find a job.

Now ask yourself this question. Why two years?

What had happened two years before? During Harry’s third year? Oh, right. The Magical World had discovered that one of Hogwarts’ teachers (someone who was in constant conctat with their children) was a werewolf. Does that ring any bell?

But that’s not all! If we take a look at chapter 15, in the Daily Prophet article we can see a familiar name: Remus Lupin. In a newspaper. Where everyone can read it. “The werewolf Remus Lupin”. No wonder he couldn’t find a job! And it’s not the first time the Daily Prophet has written about him, as it’s stated in the article itself. There must have been a huge scandal when it had all come out.

So basically, when Snape decided he couldn’t bear not having what he wanted (for example, SIRIUS BLACK GETTING KISSED BY A DEMENTOR) and spilled the secret, he didn’t only tell the whole school. He didn’t only tell the kids’ parents. The told the whole Magical World.

He told the whole Magical World that a man who had kept his condition secret all his life was a werewolf.

And the Magical World responded with a law against werewolves.

So, basically, Snape didn’t only ruin Remus Lupin’s life. He ruined the life of every single werewolf in the UK.

But, you know. Bravest man I ever knew.

There’s a BIG difference between being an asshole to someone in a racist hate-circle at 15 and being a asshole to multiple innocent children at 30.

Is there a trend on the pro-Sn*pe community to go on the anti-Sn*pe posts comment bullshit lately? Like, I ignored the last two ones that came on one of my posts(one that I didn't tag any pro-Sn*pe tags or even his general tag, mind you) but I just saw this happening on other people's posts?

The funniest thing is that one of them said on my post "I don't think you read our texts carefully", and... For that I have two answers:

1) Two months ago or so I actually made the mistake to see what was on the pro-Sn*pe tag and all I saw there was some half-baked excuses to his child abuse (mainly the ones targeting Hermione and Neville), twisting cannon facts (seriously, I've seen someone who made a ranking about "who did worse on their 5th year" and managed to say what the golden trio did was worse than him saying a slur? Like, make it make sense), and putting the blame on the marauders for literally everything wrong he did, so... That brings us to my second answer

2)... Of course I don't go for that tag since then? I have better things to do with my time than reading texts like the ones I just described, lmao

[carlislecullenstoe-deactivated2]

why do snape and draco stans exist? literally why?

[30slash03]

Alan Rickman and Tom Felton. It's only because of that and nothing they say will make me change my mind.

[the-slytherin-snape-hater]

Snape is less like “the poor little unpopular bookish nerd who gets bullied by the mean jocks” and more like “the creepy little neonazi kid who brings knives to school, hangs out with the local neonazi gang, and hurls slurs at the black, jewish, and lgbt+ kids”

[heyimboredtalktome]

Percy: I feel bad for boomers

Percy: Their parents taught them rules like, "Wearing a hat at the dinner table is rude"

Percy: And they were too stupid to be like, "What? That makes no fucking sense, at all"

[halfbloodwitxh]

I’m tired of S/nape apologists, srsly. They’re so hypocrite. I mean, they forgive S/nape’s abuse towards his students, but ‘oh, the marauders are evil for bullying poor little S/everus’. They forgive S/nape for joining a racial movement and being totally okay with killing people, and then ‘its James fault for bullying him’. They forgive him for calling his “best friend” a racial slur ‘because he was under pression.’ They totally forget that he was okay with using dark magic in people back at that same time. Bah, I won’t argue with people that obviously can’t see the difference between bullying someone when you’re a teenager, and becoming part of a supremacist racial group that killed a lot of people, and then leave them when the object of your obsession is in danger. And after that, abuse kids when you’re an adult.

[30slash03]

I am SO TIRED of the Sn*pe fandom saying "he can't be racist he was a half blood :("

You know who also was a half blood, yet NO ONE uses this poor tired excuse for him?

Lord Voldemort.

[smolmeg]

wake up babe new jesus just dropped

[valtsv]

does anyone else remember being in, like, middle school and every adult over the age of 30 being like “drawing or writing on your hands is literally the most EVIL thing you can do and can KILL you”

[sh12pen-bookfan]

My friend once put her maths homework in a bottle of water and drank it, then became ill and wasn’t able to go to school the next day, pen ink is really bad y'know

[get-thee-to-a-shrubbery]

ok but you see what the difference here is, right? like you see the difference between drawing on your hands and drinking homework juice, right??

snape hate

Let’s start from the beginning. Before Snape even reaches Hogwarts, he drops a tree branch on petunias head, which shows he wasn’t afraid to hurt people. We know that as a child, Snape was deeply invested in the dark arts. This was part of the the reason James hated him. Snape, in return hated James and the Marauders by extension. Snape complained about the Marauders to Lily, saying that their pranking was rude and mean. Snape however, was part of a friend group who bullied Mary McDonald, a friend of Lily’s. By bullying, I mean cursing her.

Snape also called Lily a mudblood when he was 15. He then tried to justify it by saying that she and she only was different. He also said it “slipped out” meaning he had been saying it in his head for a while.

Snap joins the death eaters, and tells Voldemort about the prophecy. When he finds out that the child in the prophecy is Harry, he begs Dumbledore to save Lily but he doesn’t care about James or Harry. If he really loved Lily he would want James and Harry safe too.

Fast forward 11 years, Harry’s first year at Hogwarts. On Harry’s first day, Snape asks Harry difficult potions questions which Harry didn’t know. As a professor, he should know that Harry only just found out he was a wizard. This is one of many examples of Snape bullying his students. Snape is often condescending to his students (minus the Slytherins). Perfect example being Neville. Neville's greatest fear was Snape, which is so messed up because a student shouldn’t be scared of his teacher; especially when this specific students parents were tortured into insanity by a death eater. Reasonably, Neville's greatest fear should be Bellatrix  Lestrange. Now there are many other occasions when Snape has bullied his students, but one that i remember vividly is when Draco hexed Hermione to make her teeth grow to an abnormal size. Snape looked at them and said, and I quote: “I see no difference.” Also, when Rita Skeeter was slut shaming Hermione in an article, Snape read it out loud in the class.

In Harry’s third year, Snape substitutes a class for Remus. In this class he teaches about werewolves, the homework he sets is how to recognize and kill them. Now not only does this risk exposing Remus, it takes away Remus’ right to teach werewolves as what they really were - afflicted people. Basically, when he exposed Remus, he took away Remus’ chances of getting another job in the wizarding world. Remember, Remus had lived in poverty for a majority of his life and being a professor at Hogwarts was his one chance to escape that. This is pretty annoying considering Remus was being civil to Snape. In the shrieking shack, Snape ignores Remus and Sirius and wants to give them to the dementors without listening to their story - all because of a childhood grudge. (Which the marauders matured from). Constantly made jabs at Sirius for not being able to do much for the order knowing that it wasn’t Sirius’ fault.

Physically abused Harry during occlumency lessons. When he was in Harry’s head for the occlumency lessons, he walked into the memory of the mirror of Erised and said: “feeling sentimental Potter”. Like what a jerk - as if he wasn’t the reason Harry had no parents.

That whole thing when he ripped apart a picture of a happy family to pretend Lily’s love was directed to him. That was creepy and obsessive. Walked over James’ body and ignored a crying child so he could cry over Lily’s dead body - a demonstration of his love, creepy and unhelpful. (I know this wasn't in the books, but most Snape stanners are movie watcher)

He invented the Sectumsempra spell. It was his specialty which shows that he used it a lot. He even cursed of George’s ear! This spell aims to kill which is slightly messed up for a 16 year old boy to make.

Now people try to justify his actions by saying that he had an abusive childhood. Sirius had an abusive childhood and still managed to be a good person. Harry was neglected and still managed to be a good person. Being abused as a child is no excuse to be a bad person.

They also try to justify his actions by saying he was in love with Lily. He was kind of obsessed with her but that’s a whole other debate. Just because he liked her, doesn’t mean him being a jerk should be ignored. What’s even creepier is that if Harry looked like Lily, Snape would’ve liked him.

Snape was brave by going spy, but that doesn’t mean we ignore his horrible actions. It’s doesn’t justify them either.

[30slash03]

Man, I have a ENORMOUS list of Sn*pe's behaviors that his fans excuse on the most shitty and nonsensical ways.

But I think the one that stresses me out the most is for the "I see no difference" situation. They will go out of their way to say "he was actually helping her" and DUDE. NO.

Seriously if you truly believe that you're just dumb. Not blind by a character, not struggling to come up with an excuse, just plain dumb.

[demonic-ninja-cat]

Anyone who acts like Remus purposefully and maliciously forgot his potion in PoA, and is a horrible person who purposefully endangered children, is an ableist asshole who has probably never taken meds in their life!

Forgetting to take one fucking dose of medicine, while under a fuckload of stress and dealing with a bunch of shit (teaching a class, Harry’s after-hours patronus lessons, all of the drama with Sirius and finding out that the friend who you thought was a traitor wasn’t really the traitor and that the real traitor was still out there and could potentially hurt your dead friends’ child who you really care about) does not make you an evil person or an asshole who is “purposefully endangering kids”!

Fuck off with that ableist bullshit you Snape-worshipping assholes!

[lakshmithesussybaka]

Snape stans are forever tagging their pro snape posts as anti but will have a heart attack when an anti post appears in the main snape tags

[coffeeviolinist]

TRUE. Not to mention they go out of their way to find posts tagged as anti Snape just to start an argument.

You know, the amount of characteristics they share with Snape (whiny, twisting facts, always playing the victim, even outright bigotry on occasion-I’ve literally seen them say that Snape was justified in calling Lily a slur) would be pretty funny if it weren’t so pathetic.

[30slash03]

I want to save this post forever in my heart. Never anyone will call them out again so perfectly.

[perfectlyimperfectcharacterfan]

Just a little study of snape's "apology" after he called his best friend the worst thing a blood supremacist could call a muggle : "Filthy little mudblood"

"I'm sorry."

"I'm not interested."

"I'm sorry!"

"Save your breath"

It was nighttime. Lily, who was wearing a dressing gown, stood with her arms folded in front of the portrait of the Fat Lady, at the entrance to Gryffindor Tower.

"I only came out because Mary told me you were threatening to sleep here."

"I was. I would have done. I never meant to call you Mudblood, it just--"

"Slipped out?" There was no pity in Lily's voice. "It's too late. I've made excuses for you for years. None of my friends can understand why I even talk to you. You and your precious little Death Eater friends-- you see, you don't even deny it! You don't even deny that's what you're all aiming to be! You can't wait to join You-Know-Who, can you?"

He opened his mouth, but closed it without speaking.

"I can't pretend anymore. You've chosen your way, I've chosen mine."

"No-- listen, I didn't mean--"

"-- to call me Mudblood? But you call everyone of my birth Mudblood, Severus. Why should I be any different?"

He struggled on the verge of speech, but with a contemptuous look she turned and climbed back through the portrait hole...

Maybe it's only me, but I've been raised in a way that when I do something wrong, I actually acknowledge it. Without context (and Lily), I would have no idea what snape was apologizing for.

Same when he apologizes again.

Usually when you mess up, you apologize properly, not through blackmail and emotional manipualtion. Or you give the person some space if they refuse to talk to you.

He never meant it ≠ he never thought of her that way.

It slipped out, which meant he had been referring to her in that manner more than once. Either when he was with his friends or at the very least in his mind. Another possibility is that his friends reffered to her this way and he didn't contradict them.

Lily had been hanging to the hope that Snape would change. She had defended him for years. Even with several people attempting to make her open her eyes.

Snape at this point, had been an aspiring Death-Eater for years. Even while knowing how they felt and said about muggle-borns, including Lily. This, in my mind confirms what I pointed above. It also showed he had placed his belief and bitterness for the muggle-borns above his friendship with Lily, and that it was far from recent.

Lily had likely known their friendship was doomed for some time. She still remained friend with him because she couldn't forget the boy who had introduced her to magic. And probably didn't know what had changed.

Unlike what the majority of Snape apologists proclaim, the Marauders had nothing to do with Snape joining the DE. He chose to join Voldy's ranks. While knowing that Lily would eventually be a target due to being a Muggle-born. So Lily can't have been very high on list of priority.

This could mean she either heard him call other muggle-borns this way, or heard it from her friends. I believe if she heard him say the word, she would had called him out on it. He probably promised he wouldnt do it again, which she believed. So when she would hear it from her friend, she would probably be skeptik.

Overall? Shitty apology. Snape was in one hell of a hole. Hole which he should have stopped digging when Lily told him they had both chosen their ways.

[30slash03]

Sn*pe isn't the "deep character" his fans, HP fandom in general and JKR wants you to believe he is.

You know who I think as a deep character, even if he is mostly a piece of shit? Dumbledore.

Seriously, I hate Dumbledore and the things he did, but why this fandom forces Sn*pe as the "deep and well written guy" when Dumbledore is right there?

(And before someone shows up saying something... No, it also isn't a "both of them are" situation.)
