There are two types of people in the world: The people who naturally excel at life. And the people who hope all those people die in a big explosion.

a concept: Harry Potter with his mother’s hair and father’s eyes instead of vice versa. Harry with fiery dark red hair and soft hazel eyes please and thank you

[tashaneva]

i imagine this is how harry and draco’s first meeting would have gone then haha

[musicalluna]

can you imagine how much more confused arthur would have been in that scene where he first meets harry 😂

[mimosaeyes]

his eyes would probably sweep right over harry at the breakfast table, and then he would freeze and have to do a mental tally of his children

[shoggoth88]

I can see Fred and George really going with it too… “Come on Dad, don’t you remember Harry?” “Next you’ll tell us you don’t remember Craig” “Or Ethel” “Or Annie“ “Or Ryan”

[aliee80]

I really want this to be a thing

[zoeneetopaz]

Okay but like…every professor at Hogwarts would have to do the exact same mental math as Arthur, and then realize that he’s Harry freakin’ Potter, and redo their math AGAIN.

[dravni]

Arthur sits down at the table. As he picks up a piece of toast, his eyes sweep the table, ready to greet his family.

“Good morning childr-”.

He stops when he spots a young boy with fiery red hair and fringe. The child is also wearing old clothes that once belonged to Charlie and round glasses on his face. Arthur sees his family looking at each other at the confusion this brings him. Molly speaks up.

“Harry, would you care for more eggs”?

“Yes, please. Thank you”.

Arthur breathes a sigh of relief. No child of his would be so polite. He didn’t forget anyone…this time.

[tiny-tired-star]

“No child of his would be so polite” Im dying xD This is freaking amazing

To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before (2018) dir. Susan Johnson

[hexmaniacmareen]

what they say: cats are evil and unable to love

what they mean: i dont know how to handle small animals and consider them lashing out in SELF DEFENSE an insult

[rad-roach]

Usually what it boils down to is “I’m mad because the cat didn’t act like a dog”.

[black-nata]

[luvtonique]

Pushing fragile things off tables and breaking them: Self defense. 

Destroying Christmas Trees: Self defense, I mean the tree attacked them. 

Scratching their owner’s eyeball: Self defense. 

Scratching their sleeping owner’s face: Self defense. 

Jumping on their owner’s back and clawing into their spine: Self defense. 

Admittedly yeah 

A dog doesn’t do those things because a dog’s version of self defense is to be a good animal who loves you and doesn’t attack you unless you attack them first. 

I mean if a cat feels that threatened by everything in their owner’s household maybe the owner shouldn’t have gotten a cat. 

[amphiaria-deactivated20250226]

Pushing fragile things off tables and breaking them: Playing. Cats are well-known to like to play with small objects. Your cat does not know what “fragile” means and does not understand the distinction between toy and not-toy objects. Place fragile things out of a cat’s line of sight and reach, and if you don’t provide them with enough enrichment items that they go looking for them, that’s on you.

Destroying Christmas Trees: Cats like to climb things. They’re not doing it to spite you.

Scratching their owner’s eyeball: Probably an accident, due to overstimulation when playing. It wasn’t trying to hurt you. Don’t anthropomorphize animals by attributing spite to them. Animals don’t do spite the way that humans do.

Scratching their sleeping owner’s face: Trying to rouse you with its paw, probably gently, because it loves you and wants to play with you.

Jumping on their owner’s back and clawing into their spine: Come on. If a cat is jumping on you, it loves you and wants to be close to you. Digging in with its claws is how it balances itself on an unstable surface and is purely a reflexive reaction. It isn’t intending to hurt you.

99% of cat behavioral problems stem from bored cats. Cats need to climb, need to scratch, and need small objects to play with. I only recommend adopting cats in pairs, so that they can keep each other entertained. Cats are not purely solitary. They get lonely, and lonely cats act out. Once again, your entire problem with cats as a species seems to stem from the fact that you don’t understand how cats express affection and it upsets you that they don’t do so the way that dogs do. Cats aren’t small dogs and cannot be expected to behave as such.

Tbh I wonder what Marie kondo says for items that are gifted to you that you disliked but feel bad about throwing it away bc that is a lot of clutter in my room

[dayoldhakarl-deactivated2021011]

Hello, friend! I dug through my book because she actually does say something about this!

“…let’s consider this more carefully. Most of these gifts remain unopened or have been used only once. Admit it. They simply don’t suit your taste. The true purpose of a present is to be received. Presents are not “things” but a means to convey someone’s feelings. When viewed from this perspective, you don’t need to feel guilty for parting with a gift. Just thank it for the joy it gave you when you first received it. Of course, it would be ideal if you could use it with joy. But surely the person who gave it to you doesn’t want you to use it out of a sense of obligation, or to put it away without using it, only to feel guilty every time you see it. When you discard or donate it, you do so for the sake of the giver, too.”

(The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up, page 108 - emphasis hers)

Hopefully this answers your question a little bit?

me: you’ve already used this exact turn of phrase two paragraphs ago, that’s too repetitive

me, an intellectual: if I use it three more times it becomes a motif
