Thousand Reasons Why

My name is Ashleigh Marie Zurek.

Nothing makes you feel more like a helpless little girl than your employee smacking your ass

Ravenclaws probably have, overall as a house, the worst grades in the school tbh. 

[acaranalogy]

i feel as though ravenclaws would have driven Hermione Granger up a wall they neVER DO THEIR HOMEWORK??? I though this was the smart house???? and Ravenclaws are like yeah kay but GET THIS DID YOU KNOW AN ANIMAGUS - but potions homework - who even CARES about potions right now I’m researching this COOLER THING uncouple the idea of ‘smart’ with the idea of ‘good at school’

[bagera69]

I bet for the professors teaching Ravenclaws is like herding cats away from empty boxes.

[thepioden]

Older Ravenclaws have finely honed the art of asking just the right argumentative questions to direct their teacher onto an entire-class-session-long tangent about something entirely irrelevant to the course material. 

[thekisforkeats]

Can you imagine Ravenclaws trying to overhaul the entire school system with Muggle ideas. Trying to figure out how to best teach people, more concerned with how people learn than what they’re learning.

“Why do we force people to learn things they aren’t interested in, we should create our own curriculum.”

“We should figure out everyone’s learning styles.”

“We need smaller class sizes.”

“No, no, wait, guys, what if we eliminated grades entirely.”

Yeah, Ravenclaws would drive Hermione up the wall.

[thepioden]

“Fire the whole staff and start over.”

“Present more opportunities for seventh-year independent research!”

“Why hasn’t anyone made magically modified calculators yet?”

[sadgaywerewolf]

“Why are we still using quills and parchment when pencils exist? Please explain.” “I don’t want to enter the work force directly after school, what are my options for higher education? Is there magical university?” “I don’t feel confident in my professor’s qualifications because she’s teaching me astrology but doesn’t know any facts about space beyond about the year 1764.”

[thepioden]

Muggleborn Ravenclaws forming rogue study groups to teach other students chemistry and algebra and English literature, just imagine. 

“They call this the astronomy tower but we’re learning about the effects of Venus when it’s in the fourth house and the professor doesn’t believe Neptune is a planet I am really concerned.”

“Okay but what’s the oxidation state of Mandrake root in pepperup potion?”

“But can you apply differential calculus to arithmancy or not?“ 

“The portrayal of the witches in Macbeth has some pretty troubling implications, also, I don’t think their potion would have actually done anything.”

“Couldn’t we combine magic with science? Wouldn’t the magical world advance significantly in a short space of time if we scientifically deconstructed it? I think knowing how magic works would have a huge impact on way we perceive and use it.”

me: *doesn’t hear from best friend for a day*

me: omg are we drifting? we’re drifting. I don’t know what is happening in your life. I’m so out of touch. We don’t know each other anymore. What is our friendship?

In the event of a fire consult this 5-year-old. On Wednesday Cloe Woods of Louisiana saved her dog and blind grandmother when a fire broke out in her house. When the smoke alarm woke Cloe, she immediately went to her grandmother’s room and led her outside. Why she ran door to door after escaping.

[sourcedumal]

Is there a gofundme to help her and her grandmother get back on her feet? Because this girl needs all the things!!!

[jettestblack-deactivated2017080]

Yes there is a GoFundMe :-) https://www.gofundme.com/r7pzyme4

I approached the task of Kylo Ren really just as an extension of Darth Vader in a way. And I didn’t want to get too close to it. But if it could convey in a few short notes as the Imperial March does this evil power, strength, threat. It needs to be something that will hit you and accessible right away.

Who has not asked himself at some time or other: am I a monster or is this what it means to be a person?

what she says: i'm fine

what she means: but like why was Ginny depicted the way she was in the harry potter films why did they take away her funny personality and her ability to stand up for herself why does she randomly tie harry's shoe why is she not humorous and funny and witty in the movies and what is up with that kiss in the room of requirement that's not how it's supposed to happen that's a stupid way for them to get together why does she not tease harry why are her accomplishments pushed aside why is she not the strong ginny from the books why did they take that away from her why does she hardly say anything in the movies like after the second one she gets over harry and starts talking to him like it was never about her being shy or weak like the girl was possessed by voldemort and survived and didn't lose her wit or humor or strenght why does this movie ginny exist why are things they way they are why anything

“Stop calling Kylo Ren whiney, let men be emotional”

Ok but there’s a difference between men allowing themselves to be vulnerable and a violent beta male edgelord who spends their free time playing Hatred

[withswords]

you know who was an emotional and vulnerable man without having violent tantrums? FINN. stop looking for excuses to humanize “"damaged”“ white male fascists and murderers at the expense of well developed black protagonists lmao

[bananarangcumberdongisonmydash]

^This

Kylo Ren is not “emotional”, he has anger control issues.

Meanwhile all other male characters in the film act emotional without being toxic.
