Ruiner of Male Friendship @albi-bumblebee - Tumblr Blog

I’ve been losing my HP obsession recently because I’ve been #Kenstewy and #lawlight pilled and I’ve been mostly using a new account @finch-in-a-pinch . I still love my HP & marauders mutuals but this is why I haven’t been rbing or posting much here for like a month

It’s a shame that momson is regarded as the most unfeminist kind of incest because sometimes all you want is to see a son go down on his momma’s pussy. What was I saying

As a former scholar in misogyny in Harry Potter , no the misogyny isn’t because jkr is a repressed trans man what is wrong with you people

what the fuck?? do people say this???

I assume because she wrote about gender-weirdness when she was young that one time? Like 'I might have chosen to be a boy to escape girlhood' or whatever it was, in her ignorant writing belittling transmen?

the reason the OP gave(on a post with 100 notes & zero comments criticizing) was that the women & girls in HP were written weirdly and Jkr used a male pseudonym for her mystery noveks

#I know there are have been more posts about this because I think some yter did a video about this ‘theory’ a month or two ago???

If two fictional male best friends are described as being “like brothers” that means they fucked. Btw

Benjy Fenwick when he is shipped with Sirius Black.

Benjy Fenwick when his relationship with Sirius Black turns out to be doomed yet again because he was just an extra in the fic so James Potter could steal his lover away from him.

I'm listening to the Horace Slughorn chapter in HBP right now and I'm reminded why i love and am honestly really intrigued by the relationship between dumbledore and slughorn

Bc Slughorn sees Harry and he instantly clocks that Albus is trying to manipulate him. (The exact phrasing is: Slughorn turned on Dumbledore, his expression shrewd. “So that’s how you thought you’d persuade me, is it? Well, the answer’s no, Albus.”) And then he goes and let's him! He might grumble about it and play hard to get for about half an hour but once he says yes, he knows exactly how they got there.

And in general, Slughorn is the character who most treats Albus like a peer. There's real familiarity in the way they talk. Slughorn comments on Albus' age and injury from a perspective of someone who shares in this experience when most people will either not comment on it out of respect or else, comment on it in a way that implies that Albus is loosing his touch.

And obviously Albus knows Slughorn, too, or he wouldn't have so effectively manipulated him in the first. Only, Albus also knows that Slughorn is in the know.

It's like...

Albus: here is Harry Potter, the current most famous student at hogwarts, wouldn't you like to collect him into your network?

Slughorn: i know what you're doing old man and I'm not falling for it

Albus: well fellow old man, I actually think you are falling for it.

Slughorn: ... this is like in 1932 when you got me to take your detention supervision duties for a months. Alright alright alright, I'll come back to hogwarts!

I'm just finding myself endlessly fascinated by the potential of this dynamic: two intelligent, manipulative and intensely isolated old men who have known each other for decades and slowly watched their generation disappear, one of them approaching his death ...

let men be friends who just jerk each other off occasionally and maybe exchange blowies and they're lowkey mortified of the whole ordeal but they can't stop. they won't stop

Dolores would say that she wants a traditional marriage where she gets to be in her soft feminine pink but she absolutely hates it when Regulus tries to tell her what to do

GIVE HIM BACK HIS BESTFRIEND!

When people see wolfstar as a happy, healthy teenage romance and not a fucked up decades long situationship between two repressed and traumatised friends who keep messing up despite loving each other... 💔:(
