Being A Ravenclaw Would Include...

Slytherin | Hufflepuff | Gryffindor

* * *

Getting extremely excited when people start to talk about space

“DiD yOu SaY sPaCe?!”

Having the best ever conversations with other Ravenclaws at 3am

Getting frustrated at the eagle knocker when you cant figure out the riddle.

“Why is a raven like a writing desk”

“I don’t know! Can’t you just let me in it’s been like an hour!”

Listening to 90′s muggle music in the common room

Decorating the common room with art and poems etc that house mates have made

the common room being so beautifully original and obscure that everyone just smiles when they enter it

Having play readings in the common room where someone chooses and play and you all just sit and read for different characters

secret drinking games on Saturday nights

Laughing whenever someone mentions how ravenclaw are the “goodie two shoes” of all the houses because you haven’t handed homework in for at least a month

Being able to get away with a lot and using that to your advantage

Going up to the tower after a long night and finding a group of first years who can’t get into the common room

“Don’t even tell me the fucking riddle, I have been in the library for four hours and I am so fucking tired so just open the fucking door”

*Door slowly sings open the eagle knocker staying silent*

Being the second loudest table after Gryffindor

Not even caring about house points

Karaoke in the common room

Watching old disney movies in the common room while pure-bloods gather round in awe at how cute Bambi is

Using pens because if you are going to experience running out of goddamned quill ink again you are going to scream

Ravenclaw PRIDE

Being A Slytherin Would Include...

Gryffindor | Ravenclaw | Hufflepuff

* * *

Getting excited every time the giant squid would swim past the glass in the common room

Having to stock up on warm clothes bc damn it gets cold in there

Everyone in the dorms having like ten blankets on their beds during winter

Having huge games of Chinese whispers at the Slytherin table which confuses the whole school as to why all the Slytherins are deadly silent

Having the sassiest and most sarcastic conversations ever with your house mates

Staying up late on Friday nights with loads of other slytherins and playing weird drinking games with firewhisky while the minors watch in awe

Always defending people from your house even if you’ve never talked to them before

Getting confused as to why Slytherin is supposed to be the “badass” house because what actually goes on in the common room is eating competitions and rap battles

Creating the strongest and most last-longing friendships

Passing notes in class

saying “fight me” under your breath to literally everything

So much swearing

Everyone swearing all the time that you forget that swearing is “bad”

Getting told off in class for swearing

“God fucking dammit i just spilled my fucking ink”

“Excuse me?”

“Sorry professor…slip of the tongue…”

Getting extremely stubborn when people tell you what to do, making you do the opposite.

Not being as huge a fan of Snape even though everyone thinks Slytherins worship him

Getting really annoyed when people are surprised at how lovely you are, despite being in Slytherin

Slytherin PRIDE

So I was at LUSH the other day and I saw this table of soaps and thought “Some of these straight up look like cheese…..”

You know who else would think it looks like cheese?

So Adrien had to stop buying the soaps that were the same color as camembert….

My roommate is gay but I believe we’re probably like platonic soulmates bc whenever I text him “bad day” he picks me up a greek salad and a five guys fry and whenever he texts me “bad day” i pick him up ribs and cheesecake at bbq heaven on MLK street and we texted each other “bad day” at the same time today and came home to each other’s food that’s like. real love imo.

Ruby Bridges was the first black child to desegregate the all-white William Frantz Elementary School in Louisiana during the New Orleans school desegregation crisis in 1960.

This movie made me cry, I was so heart broken by how Ruby Bridges was treated! She was only 6, but was so strong. She is a very brave girl and she did not care what the white folks called her.

People are simply disgusting to minimize people by skin color!

Ruby you might not think you’re a hero… But to other people you are! You are A HERO and you are A PERSON WHO MADE AMERICA CHANGE!

this is white culture, this is their history, this is their legacy…being enraged at a damn baby just because she’s black.

Ruby Bridges in 2010

“As Bridges describes it, “Driving up I could see the crowd, but living in New Orleans, I actually thought it was Mardi Gras. There was a large crowd of people outside of the school. They were throwing things and shouting, and that sort of goes on in New Orleans at Mardi Gras.“ Former United States Deputy Marshal Charles Burks later recalled, “She showed a lot of courage. She never cried. She didn’t whimper. She just marched along like a little soldier, and we’re all very very proud of her.“

U.S. Marshals escorted Bridges to and from school

As soon as Bridges entered the school, white parents pulled their own children out; all the teachers refused to teach while a black child was enrolled. Only one person agreed to teach Ruby and that was Barbara Henry, from Boston, Massachusetts, and for over a year Henry taught her alone, "as if she were teaching a whole class.”

Every morning, as Bridges walked to school, one woman would threaten to poison her; because of this, the U.S. Marshals dispatched by President Eisenhower, who were overseeing her safety, allowed Ruby to eat only the food that she brought from home.

Another woman at the school put a black baby doll in a wooden coffin and protested with it outside the school, a sight that Bridges Hall has said “scared me more than the nasty things people screamed at us.” At her mother’s suggestion, Bridges began to pray on the way to school, which she found provided protection from the comments yelled at her on the daily walks.”

THIS SHIT WAS ONLY 58 YEARS AGO. PEOPLE WHO PARTICIPATED IN THIS RACIST TERRORISM AND ACTS LIKE IT ARE STILL ALIVE, AND THEIR KIDS ARE IN THEIR 40′S AND 50′S.

DON’T LET RACISM APOLOGISTS GET AWAY WITH “WHY ARE YOU LIVING IN THE PAST,” BULLSHIT ARGUMENTS. WE ARE LITERALLY STILL DEALING WITH THE FAMILIES THAT FORMED HATE MOBS OVER BLACK CHILDREN ATTENDING SCHOOL WITH WHITE KIDS.
