I heard that during a Tokyo Dome concert Yoochun was sick and couldn't sing his high note, and Changmin finished it for him. I really want to see it. Do you know how can i find a vid of it???

Sure! It was for Kiss the Baby Sky, and Yoochun trails off at around 2:50 but Changmin picks up his line. [yt]

Interesting note: It definitely uses whoever you're following now, not at that date. Even the 2020 one includes a lot of people I was absolutely not following yet in Feb 2020, which is actually kind of cool, I can see what they were reblogging from this fandom before I got into it.

Downton Spoilers and Speculation

"Set in 1930, “Downton Abbey: The Grand Finale” follows Lady Mary (Michelle Dockery) as she navigates London high society, while Lord and Lady Grantham (Hugh Bonneville and Elizabeth McGovern) oversee the Yorkshire County estate."

Downton Abbey 3 Trailer: 'Grand Finale' Says Goodbye to Granthams

Very vague, but it seems like London is going to be a central setting.

Guy is back, doing some stage acting. In New Era, Guy expresses doubt over his acting skills, so him doing some stage work might be him trying to prove himself. It also brings Thomas back to the fold, thankfully.

Mary wearing a red dress, Edith describing Mary as going to be a "sensation" makes me wonder if there are some stakes to Mary partaking in London high society, especially with her getting photographed entering that party.

It could be that the party has Guy there, so the press are there for that reason, and Mary wants to be a "sensation" to compete with the Hollywood guests.

Another theory is that Mary and Henry have divorced, and this is Mary returning to society after the divorce, and Mary needing to hold her head up.

The trailer makes it look like the Crawleys are leaving Downton, but that easily could be misdirection.

Hopes are that Anna and Bates finally leave to get a Hotel, and seeing as the movie seems to be set a lot in London, we get to see journalist!Edith at work. Her plot in the first and second movie was all about her getting back into her writing and her magazine after marrying Bertie, so fingers crossed.

I didn't read Edith as necessarily saying those words to Mary, actually.

I did read the trailer as implying that the Crawleys are finally giving up the estate, which, in addition to just being damn sad, puts paid to a wartime headcanon of mine in which George — now the Earl of Grantham and serving with the R.A.F. in Malta alongside ... but wait, that's a crossover — anyway, he agrees to a request to allow two adjoining untenanted farms on the estate to be used for permanent rehousing for people in the region who've been bombed out, as long as they wait for him to come home so that he can be involved in the planning and design — and he proceeds to name all the streets after his relatives and members of the staff from when he was a child.

We saw nothing of the children in the trailer, incidentally. Not good.

Hi Jess! I am 8 weeks pregnant and had to self refer to a OB here in Canada. There was a list of like 30 doctors, and I was like, “how the hell am I going to choose?”

But then the 6 or 7th doctor I clicked on, it said she studied at St Andrew’s so that’s how I decided 😂

Haha I mean that sounds as good a reason as any! Shame you can't do a speed dating thing! Studying medicine at St Andrews is odd because it's a relatively small town. There's about 18,000 residents including all the students who are only there in term time. Because it's so small it just has a community hospital which treats minor issues. There's no teaching hospital etc. So you only do 3 years at St Andrews (your BSc) and then you basically transfer over to a different medical school St Andrews has a partnership with for your clinical training.

I cannot believe people let Snape get the high ground.

How do people casually overlook the fact that Snape spent six entire years of his life telling a kid—who never even got the chance to know his father—that said father was an arrogant douchebag? Like, how do people think that behavior is normal?

Snape, a grown man, spent years trying to convince a grieving, orphaned child that his dead father—who literally died protecting his family—was a terrible person. No compassion for a man who gave his life for his wife and son. No sympathy for a kid who grew up abused, unloved, and completely alone, only learning about his parents through stories told by others.

Instead, Snape chose to rehash his teenage rivalry with James Potter by bullying his son. Imagine being so petty that you can’t move past your high school grudges, even when the other person has been dead for over a decade.

Even the coldest, most detached person would muster some respect for a man who died fighting for good. But Snape? No. He chose to sit on his high horse—ignoring the fact that he was once a Death Eater who only changed sides when his own personal interests were threatened—and still had the audacity to act morally superior to James.

James Potter died a hero. Snape, on the other hand, spent his life tormenting the child of the woman he claimed to love—while refusing to let go of a teenage rivalry and weaponizing it against a traumatized, grieving boy.

I cannot get over how utterly selfish and cruel that is. Snape had no empathy for the dead and no sympathy for the living. And people still try to defend him? Seriously?

What About The Kens?

I'm already seeing guys complain about the Barbie movie end, how they wanted Kens to be equal in Barbieland but were only given a small part on the Cabinet.

That's the point.

You're meant to feel bad for the Kens. Believe me, women aren't partying over the 'Returns to Matriarch' ending. Some will be, but the ones who also clocked the meaning behind it won't. Most women will also feel bad for Kens. Because it's an exact parallel to how women are treated in reality.

Men, you're meant to be upset. You're meant to question it. Because you're meant to feel it, and feel what that is like, so you can finally understand women. You're upset at seeing it in a movie, now imagine living it in reality. That's being a woman.

Kens were shit on so you could feel what it was like for women this entire time. Kens were being used as a placement so you could see yourself in a woman's shoes. A world dominated by the opposite sex. When Ken leaves, and sees male presidents (All men) for the first time, men being doctors and lawyers, etc, realising he is more than just a prop for Barbie, that was on purpose. Because that is the feeling that Barbie gave to women. It's why you cheer for him at first before he goes a little overboard.

It's exactly why the real world was an exaggerated Partriarchy and Barbieland an exaggerated Matriarchy. Neither wins. Neither is equal. None of them change for the better. It's why you should want women in the real world to be respected, and Kens in Barbieland to be respected.

The thing is, women also didn't win. Not in the real world. In Barbieland, yes, but not anywhere else. The real world didn't change. But you didn't notice, did you? That Gloria (The mother that helped Barbie) also didn't get a position on the Mattel board? It was still all men? Her idea was ignored until it made a profit, and the men will likely get the credit? She'll still just be the receptionist? The women representing the real world didn't get anymore opportunities, neither did the men in Barbieland.

I was hoping that Gloria would be offered a position on the board, and that the Barbie Cabinet would introduce another entire Cabinet to represent the Kens, but neither happened. They're complete mirrors.

But which one did you actually notice? Which did you actually care about? Now tell me again the ending was unfair. Because it was. For both parties. That's the point.

The difference is, Barbieland is fictional. You will walk out of the theatre with the reassurance that at least it's not real. Women won't. Women can't. Companies not giving women equal opportunities or voices isn't fictional, and that was just one example. There are no women presidents (USA at least) for us to go look at in the real world. We don't have somewhere to go to realise it could be different for us like Ken did. Barbie and make believe is all we had when we were kids, or even now.

You're supposed to be mad, just not at the movie.

daily reminder that at the age of thirteen ron weasley was dragged inside what he believed to be the most haunted place in the entire britain by somebody he believed to be a mass murderer on the loose and stood on a broken leg to shield harry from said murderer. he was thirteen absolutely terrified and injured and he stood up to a convicted murderer to protect harry. i have never in my life doubted why he was the person harry would miss most

Distinct character development of Ron in all 7 BOOKS

He was shitty to Hermione in 4th year. He asked her to dance with him at Bill and Fleur's wedding in DH before anyone.

He was scared to werewolves in 3rd year. But He defended remus at the grimmauld place in DH.

He was scared of half giants. But it was him who defended Hagrid against luna when Luna called him a bad teacher.

He was against SPEW. But during the battle of Hogwarts  it was him who wanted to save the house elves when Hermione had forgotten about them.

He was rude to Luna initially. But in HBP he appreciated her Quidditch commentary when everyone else made fun of her. He also said she had got ten times her father's guts.

He was all about physical appearance in GOF. But it was him who gave Harry advice to date a more cheerful person in OOTP.

He was scared of uttering Voldemort's name throughout all 7 books. But it was him who yelled at voldy 'he beat you' in DH and broke the silencing charm.

He hates Crookshanks in 3rd year. Later he took Crookshanks' validation whether pig was good or not.

He bought Hermione a perfume in OOTP to make up for his atrocious behaviour in 4th year.

He thought he was least loved by everyone. But in the epilogue he joked about him being famous.

Not fanfics. He has such growth in canon books. Let that sink in
