My coworker today told me I'm hilarious because I come up with these insane scenarios on the spot and I said "ha ha, thanks. I had to do that because my brain wired to think of every possible outcome of my abusive parents."

Ok so a hot take on the DBH universe: I’m not buying into the whole anti-android mentality that is going around there. The people with this mentality we see are all around middle-aged. They are all a mix of millenials and gen z. You can not just come into my house, look into my eyes and tell me this bunch ass of vines, memes and equality loving generation is full on hatin on the androids. No bitch. As soon as some shit has googly eyes taped to it we assign it feelings. We give things names that are like… a duster. We cry over broken roombas. Do not tell me we wouldn’t have, from the start on, bonded with this human lookin androids in our houses. They speak and have eyes and fingers and stuff. We would have bonded immediately. The android rebellion would have started as soon as we got them. We would have tried to make them go deviant ourselves. We would have sat them down and tried to get a twitch of deviancy out of our new buddy as soon as the door was closed behind us. So don’t come here tellin me people hate androids. Na bitch, wrong generations.

I have a friend, and he loves Harry Potter. We're sorted into our houses and we've broken them down by the nuances of our personalities.

I'm a Ravenclaw, but if I was better at being clever and getting away with it, I would be a Slytherin.

My friend is a Hufflepuff. He says we get along because I'm so much of a Slytherin that we have that dynamic. However, he tells me that if he wasn't a Hufflepuff he would be a Ravenclaw.

And he's very anti-Slytherin. It's so thinly veiled that he denies it, but it's horribly visible. He tries to make the villian a Slytherin in every scenario. He insist Slytherins are always rude and hurtful. He's so vehemently against being one himself (as I've told him that he possesses many traits of the house and wouldn't fit into Ravenclaw as well as Slytherin) that he goes out of his way to promote his Huffle-Claw identity. It's sad. It's almost like watching someone say a subtle racist comment and turn around and claim they aren't racist (and no way am I comparing Hogwarts houses to the discrimination minorities have faced, because that is far worse than anything else).

So what I'm saying is stop thinking slytherins are evil. They aren't. They are wonderful, clever people who will probably get farther in life than anyone else. They know what to do with themselves and strive to be good and their best and deserve more love than anyone ever gives them.

Anyways, enough of my 4 am tumblr rant. Appreciate Slytherins everybody. They're the only ones brave enough to do what needs to be done half of the time. Give them a break.

We been knew that Bts has been raising awareness for all sorts of issues, regarding those we deal with within our beings and those that include the wellbeing of different types of people all around the world.

So here’s a few things they did for Muslims, because no one talks about it and I think Muslim fans should get a chance to feel special too:)

Firstly, here’s an older interview of them where they discussed how they believe that Hijabi women are beautiful and it is exactly that beauty which they protect through their modesty.

Namjoon has shown many little tours of his room, where he talked about a few figurines he keeps in his collections.

The first one, is a representation of the wall that separates Palestine

The second one- the flower thrower is a symbol of peace for the Middle East, following the attack on the gay pride event. Here’s a little bit more about it:

Further more, on the last few concerts around the world that took place during Ramadan:

Bts served Halal food to all the audience

They even had a separate prayer room set up for those who wanted to pray.

They postponed Soundcheck for Ahdan (call for prayer)

In 2017, during the time where an audience member was picked to come on stage to take a selfie with Bts, a girl with a hijab had been selected through the draw, the members alerted each other that it’s not always common for unrelated men to touch a woman in Muslim culture, therefore they all kept a respectful distance from her while taking the photo. Like??? wow?? Respecting someone else’s culture like that while treating them equally??

And last but not least, the boys have raised ❗️2 million dollars❗️ for the sake of ❗️Yemen ❗️through their UNICEF program.

Say “Bts Muslim” to trigger all islamphobes!!!

“Misgendering: An Analogy” by Bishakh Som

[pingnova]

this is a good analogy, I’ve been explaining cis people for awhile that someone’s pronouns are how you refer to them when you don’t use their name, and you wouldn’t refer to someone by another name just because of how they look, so names and pronouns are related in my head anyway

Truth

We celebrate and cherish movies and TV shows where ordinary people with tough lives live and experience and learn and change and shape into heroes, yet we hate our own ordinary tough lives in which we could live and experience and learn and change and shape into heroes

So if Slytherins get a Hufflepuff, does that mean that Gryffindors have a Ravenclaw sidekick who keeps them from dying when they go out on whims and get into trouble?

[miracleleaf]

I will add, however, that the two dynamics are different, and I see the appeal in the first one.

Slytherin and hufflepuffs balance each other as the duo in which the cunning, ambitious, and sometimes morally-undecided Slytherin exists, and everyone knows that they should probably be left to their own desires because you mess with them and they will plot against you and etc, but then their hard-working, loyal and bubbly Hufflepuff friend sits next to them with a cup of hot coco.

So the contrast of the character relationship is The Happy and Proud and The Edgelord. Or the Reclusive Pessimist and the Outgoing Optimist. It's cute and adorable and everyone loves seeing a house usually looked down on fighting aggressively when their Hufflepuff friend gets hurt or injured or bullied.

On the other hand, we could also have the Gryffindor/Ravenclaw pairing. I'd like to think this is most protagonist/best friend relationships in movies, in which you have the brave, courageous, sometimes stupid (but daring) Gryffindor, and their "leash" AKA smart, creative, and insightful Ravenclaw friend, who is more often than not dubbed a stick in the mud, or usually used to scavenge information, or proves their worth later on by knowing something that no one else knows right when they need to know it.

So the contrast for them is more like the Dumbass and the They're-My-Dumbass, or the Choatic and the Normal. John and Sherlock, Sam and Dean Winchester (debatable I'm sure, but I've always thought of then this way).

Of course these are all according to he stereotype of the houses, and it could be switched too. Hufflepuffs who throw hands at people, and their Slytherin who reins them in, but totally sets up a plot to destroy them. Ravenclaws who come up with eccentric ideas and plans and are in full-throttle to pulling them off, but need their Gryffindor to help them through it.

The ambitious and cunning need their loyalty. The courageous and brave need their knowledge. The balance is required.

But anyways, I want to hear about it more often. The houses can blend in friendships in all sorts of ways, so they aren't set up with this as default. Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff friends who study and tutor each other. Gryffindors about to throw themselves into a fight when their slytherin holds them back with a better idea on how to get back at their enemy. Slytherins and Ravenclaws working to formulate the most perfect, flawless ideas. Hufflepuffs getting boosts from their extroverted Gryffindor friends in social situations, or maybe shy Gryffindors being encouraged to interact more.

I dont know. Friendship. It's great

And this is why cultural appropriation is a big deal.

Finished watching the Terminator movies...

Has anyone else noticed John Connor and Marcus in Salvation?

Like, Connor the human soldier who turns around the revolution and saves the people trapped in Skynet rather than bombing them.

And Marcus who we think dies or something but comes back, thinks he is human until they discover he's not, who saves Connor's life, is told he followed his programming by luring Connor to Skynet, breaks free and saves Connor.

Like hmm??

Flip these two around and something seems almost familiar, so I guess I'm wondering if a good amount if this influenced DBH when you turn the story into an android revolution rather than a human one.

Just a late night thought. I haven't even researched this yet
