Does the wizarding world have a health insurance? Why isn’t the wolfsbane potion provided for free? Werewolves need that potion not only for their own benefit, but also for the sake of others around them. Werewolves have a hard time finding a job, so the fact that the potion ingredients are expensive is gross injustice. In this essay I will

As a linguistics nerd, I’d like to formally suggest “Nespring” as a nonbinary equivalent to niece/nephew and “Avaun” as a nonbinary equivalent to aunt/uncle
Nespring: literally meaning “the offspring of my sibling” from the old English roots “offspring” which is just ‘of spring’ and the Latin root “nepos” that both niece and nephew are derived from
Avaun: derived from the roots of both “aunt” and “uncle,” the anglo-French “aunte” and the Latin “avunculus”

what do you mean i haven’t reached out to you i literally manifest you in the fake scenarios i create in my head each night before i fall asleep

Me, chewing on my Bad Decisions™ Bagel in the corner:
The Universe: What’s that in your mouth?
Me, chewing faster:
The Universe: I said, WHAT THE FUCK IS IN YOUR MOUTH
This was already amazing. But that reblog comment and the extra they hid in the tags (for some unfathomable reason) makes this fucking hilarious and I love it even more. XD
The Universe: WHERE DID YOU FIND ANOTHER SWEET POTATO?!
Look, I know facile trope inversion is for weenies, but I still really want to see a JRPG-style game where the shouty teenage boy who gives long speeches about the power of friendship is the fragile healer and the girl with the gentle piano-and-strings theme song and self-sacrificing “must save everyone” attitude is the melee tank. I don’t think I’m being unreasonable here.
I’m not even being ironic – I honestly think it would work better that way. Like, let’s put power-of-friendship boy in a position where he actually needs to rely on his friends to get anything done, rather than just talking about how they’ve inspired him while he solos the final boss. And as for Little Miss Messiah Complex, well, tell me you can’t perfectly picture how the standard tank protagonist move where you intercept a blow meant for a critically wounded party member, facetank a fucktillion points of damage, then get back up again with one hit point and a voice quip about how the baddies will have to do better than that would play out under her idiom. You can see it, right?
People in the notes are looking at the second one saying “that’s just She-Ra, that’s just–” no, it isn’t. Gentle piano-and-strings theme song, remember? It’s essential that each archetype’s stock personality remain intact, and only the role changes.
She’s sweet. She’s humble. She wears homespun dresses and grows pretty flowers in her free time. She has that vibe that says “I’m going to die halfway through the game to make my boyfriend sad”, except that doesn’t happen, because the baddies don’t have a big enough gun.
I want to see the obligatory scene where the bad guy’s army is burning down her Beloved Peasant Village™, and she’s standing between the evil commander and a group of soulful orphans, begging with tears in her eyes for him to see that there’s already been enough death – except when he callously rejects her entreaties and moves to backhand her out of the way, she catches his armoured fist mid-swing, without even the faintest tremor of effort, and in a tone of infinite patience informs him: “You misunderstand, sir: it’s not our lives I’m pleading for.”
And then she punches people until all the soldiers run away and feels conflicted about it afterwards.

Iroh: so Toph, what are your goals in life?
Toph: I’ve been banned from every major city’s transportation system except Omashu
Toph: I don’t know what their limit is but I will fucking find it
King Boomie, having exactly zero limits:
Unstoppable object meets immovable force
[Toph eventually slips up and is captured by the city guard force. Instead of being imprisoned or exiled, Toph finds herself being given audience with the King of Omashu.]
Bumi: Well, well, well. It seems I have finally met the troublemaker who has been causing such chaos with my rail systems.
Toph:…
Bumi: I must say, I am thoroughly impressed with your earthbending abilities. You remind me of myself when I was a lad.
Toph: Get to the point.
Bumi: I see great potential in you, Toph Beifong. I want you inherit my title once I am no longer fit to rule.
Toph: Wait what the fuck
Why wasn’t this Toph’s future instead of becoming a freaking cop. This would have made so much more sense.
My favorite part of this is “when I am no longer fit to rule” because
1. Implying Bumi was fit to rule at any point
1.1 except maybe in the sense that he was completely shredded
2. That he has no plans to die, (nor would death necessarily make him unfit to rule), but that he apparently intends to like. Tuck his arms and legs into himself and just roll off into the sunset.
3. Given that the Earth Kingdom has an actual ruling family that causes some drama in LoK, Toph continuing to cause monarchy confusion is both 100% in character and fucking hilarious.
bumi “no longer being fit to rule” or whatever just means. like. toph beats him in arm wrestling
so I came to a realization while reading some stuff about ozai. bitchlord had the shortest reign of any firelord ever, but that isn’t the funniest thing yet. it was listed that the most notable victories of his reign was the surrender of omashu and the fall of ba sing se.
both of those were led by azula, not ozai. in short, his fourteen year old mentally unstable daughter did more in ozai’s seven year term than ozai ever did.
do what you want with this information. loserlord, indeed.
He didn’t even get the throne on his own, Ursa masterminded the entire coup for him
the tags say no lies
ozai fought two thirteen year olds as a grown man. the first one surrendered. the second one did not surrender and went on to absolutely kick his ass.
imagine if the first one had NOT surrendered
AU where Zuko fights back at the Agni Kai, wins, and unexpectedly becomes the Firelord at 13.

Bruce cannot harm a doggo!
I love how even the tiny bit of detail we get of his face looks horrified at the idea of punching a puppy.
Bruce will punch many things but NOT A DOG
tired: mermaids are all women
wired: much like elves, merfolk are mistaken by sailors for being all women because they have long hair and are very pretty
inspired: merfolk actually have very different concepts of gender to humans because they're an entirely different species with their own unique culture
marine scientist: what's your gender?
merperson: what's a gender
marine scientist: like, are you a man or a woman?
merperson: i'm merfolk
marine scientist: no, like, what's in your pants?
merperson: i don't... wear any? i don't have legs?
It’s a biological fact that fish do indeed change their sex to keep the male/female ratio balanced in their school population. So this fluidity actually makes more sense from a scientific standpoint than the silly idea that merfolk are born with a strictly assigned sex like humans.
Merfolk are all canonically genderfluid and we love them for that
Things Overheard on a Magical College Campus
“So, we had to have another fucking hall meeting about people teleporting in the halls.”
“Her parents are high elf sorcerers, so obviously they bought her her own Pegasus already and everything.” “Ugh, rich kids.”
“What are you gonna do with a minor in Dragonology?”
“Well, if you fail this class you can always sell your soul to obtain power through unholy means.” “I can’t! I already sold my soul to pay my student loans!”
“He’s got the Chosen One scholarship. Full ride,” “Really? I was going to apply for that, but my parents are still alive, soooo...” “I applied but I think they’re looking for more of a farm-boy-raised-by-aunt-and-uncle type. I mean, I’m adopted, but I grew up in the city.”
“Really?” “Yeah, so that’s why the freshmen aren’t allowed to learn fireball anymore.”
“Don’t you dare bring weed into my dorm. My RA’s a werewolf, she can smell that shit!”
“I’ve got an alchemy class in ten minutes, think I can afford to skip?” “Who’ve you got?” “Zorbo.” “Ehh, better not, he tests mostly from his lectures. His exams are whack too, last time he spent so long on transmuting copper alloys and it was barely even in the textbook.”
“Yeah, so the cat’s actually the RA’s familiar, so that’s how she found out I had a waffle iron in the dorm.”
“Oh, I know the girl with the seeing-eye spider! She’s on my hall!”
“I guess I could always sell my body to the Dark Lord’s undead armies to pay off my student loans...”
“So I’m doing a group project with a bunch of Heroism majors so that’s how my life is going.”
“Guess who didn’t get any fucking sleep because someone backfired a spell in the bathroom at 3am and the whole fucking dorm had to evacuate?”
“I’m taking Dark Omens 312 as an elective.” “Really? I thought you needed Interpreting Vague Prophecies as a prerequisite.” “Oh, I have transfer credit.”
“I love the Witchcraft building, it always smells like bog water and bone dust.”
“I left my fucking battle axe in one of the bathrooms and now it’s gone!” “I dunno man. You could check the Lost and Found desk.”
“Maybe we can hang out in your dorm?” “I dunno, it’s a full moon so I’m pretty sure my roommate is wolfing out right now.”
“So I’m majoring in Mad Science now.” “Oh, have you taken your Unethics class?”
“Hey, wanna go to the Abandoned Dark Tower and hang out in the torture dungeons?” “Nah, I have like a hundred sigils to learn before the test Monday.” “Come onnn! It’s one of the best spots on campus!”
“Done with that exam, pretty sure I failed it, time to run into the woods and join the roving bands of undead wolves.”
“Do you think it’s too late to change my major to Necromancy?”
“My professor came in this morning and she’d forgotten to change back from a cloud of crows into a person, so that was something.”
“You can tell the freshmen by how freaked out they get at hearing the werewolf club do their howl-off.”
“Look, just because a professor is a demon doesn’t mean I can sacrifice my firstborn to him to get a better grade. Anyway, I already promised my firstborn to a witch to pay off my student loans.”
“Yeah I forgot to take a towel or anything to the showers so I had to cast a glamour over myself and walk back ass-naked to my room.” “Don’t you have a robe?” “I mean. They don’t really make bathrobes that work when you have wings.” “Oh, that sucks.”
“I almost got an A. It was the fucking question about flight magic vs. levitation magic that got me.”
“There’s this one guy in my Divination 100 class who keeps derailing every class arguing with the professor about predestination...” “Lemme guess, an Arcane Languages major?” “I think he’s like double majoring in Cursebreaking and Arcane Engineering.” “Oof, even worse.”
“Ha, my professor spent like 20 minutes ranting about how shit the Dark Lord’s foreign policy is this morning.”
“We’re going into town, want to come with?” “Nah, I’m taking a nap. Still gotta work on stuff for Dreamwalking Club, and I haven’t got a lot of sleep lately.” “Aw. Ok.”
“So, yeah, I cast a purifying spell on the dining hall chicken nuggets and they just straight up vaporized into dust, so, no.”
“My parents are all like, go into something useful like Cursebreaking or some bullshit like that, blah blah blah...”
“So like, my roommate like bailed at the last second or something, right? And I got stuck with a rando and she’s a vampire and so she’s like, completely nocturnal and it’s driving me crazy because I can’t sleep when she’s up banging around heating up her blood bags in the microwave or whatever...”
“Fuck, I still haven’t got the chicken blood for the ritual due tomorrow. Shit.”
“I’m so tired, I think my soul is too thin to even be worth selling to pay off my student loans.”
“Fuck this shit. I’m going back to my room and making garlic bread.” “But...You’re a vampire...” “It’s finals week, do I look like I care?”
(inspired mostly by conversations with @awhellstothejoe, lol)
I love all of this
here it finally is my isopod terrarium table!!
it's built from real spruce and pine wood, sealed with epoxy and pond liner and has a thick drainage layer. right now i have springtails and a colony of magic potion isopods living in it and they seem to really love all the space and moss. they also don't mind me knocking on the table or putting things down at all.
this took me so much time and money but we don't talk about that to build. it's my first complex carpentry project and i'm really happy with how it turned out!!
i love my table isopods would absolutely recommend putting isopods into your table
“lgbt people are allowed to hate religion and u can’t call them out for it”
nah. im allowed to be like, distrustful and wary of and even hate christianity specifically, b/c i come from a christian background.
that doesn’t mean that 1) im allowed to give lgbt christians grief or 2) im allowed to be islamophobic or antisemitic
everyone who’s commented on this post and hollered over jewish and muslim folks and acted like they’re morally and intellectually superior for being an atheist is a fucking moron
