looking through old notes as i'm compiling the plot for the other years to post and found one about the two dumbasses talking to the other's respective original love interests about how amazing the other is and just. the two girls being like, "are you sure you guys aren't in love??"

[punmster]

Hello you..i have brought forth your little guy

Throw him in a blender for me dear writer🫶🫶

HE'S GETTING BLENDED (LOVINGLY 💖💖)

[punmster]

Hi again!

Not sure if you’re open to talking about DSMSG again since you’re probably working on your passion project, but now every time I see ferrets I think of your fanfic 😭

oh i somehow missed this ask earlier!! aghdhgkhk i love that <33 frankly every time i see silly ferret videos i also imagine draco doing those things...he is truly Silly at heart

[flinterwingx13]

Hiatus’nt. Allegedly.

hello there..foes.or friends. Presumably

i am here to bring you fanart, from yet another semi cringeworthy fandom that i partake in because i have no fear of anything, anyway

MY BOY! The guy ever! Draco (x2) Malfoy of @punmster’s Draco Malfoy’s Sudden Memory Gain, a fic i am a fan of now, because it is highkey fun and silly. I heart fanfics. Yes. Wonderous.

Ill post again within a years time. Trust..(someone yell at me that usually works)

[punmster]

OH MY GOD?!?!?! THE COLORS!! THE PAINTING!! THE FERRET!!!! HIS LITTLE FANG AND :3 FACE I LOVE HIM 🥺🥺

[punmster]

Hello! I hope this message was brought to you while you’re in good health and a happy place. Will you ever post the rough timeline of DMSMG or post your other story idea? It’s ok if you’ve ever changed your mind—I’ve had a crazy year myself.

omg I missed this message agdjkh I've been super busy with college (and got into a few other fandoms whoops) so I haven't had much time but I do want to post the timeline!

I was going to wait until after finishing writing 2nd year but the chapter I'm on has given me so much writer's block that I might just not finish 2nd year and go straight to posting the timeline when I get the chance.

As for Bad Call, I do want to work on it! Making a new story from scratch is pretty difficult though--my notes on the magic system are extensive (bcuz I'm a magic system lover and need to know how absolutely everything works). Plus I want to make sure that the plot across all parts of the series is solid and interconnected, so I'm probably going to take a while before I actually write the first part.

thank you for asking <33

[punmster]

[punmster]

ok im going to #seriouspost for a second here. I don't think Harry Potter is a manifesto. I think it was a flawed passion project that millennials latched onto because of the fantasy of sticking it to their mean teachers and arbitrarily categorizing themselves (hogwarts houses; it's the thinking millennial's astrology). I think the fact that the series got popular when and how it did was very much a product of its time.

I don't think Harry Potter is the biggest symbol of JKR's bigotry. I think the most flagrant sign of that was how she responded to critics. I watched her become radicalized in real time. I watched how she doubled down on her racism when she was called out for the ways she promoted her tragically mid fantastic beasts movies. I watched her chase marginalized teenagers with a double digit follower count off of twitter for daring to criticize her thought process, and no one with any kind of power standing against her because she was the one who was paying them. This isn't to say Harry Potter is without flaws. This is to say she really didn't give a shit about that. Getting rich and powerful is a hell of a drug, and she had enough sycophants that she had no reason to care about what her critics were saying.

She was convinced that she was a martyr; a voice for the unheard; a leader for the ages, so of course her detractors were the bad guys. And I think we should take this to heart. We should see this as an example of how easy it is to get radicalized; if you think of yourself as a paragon of virtue, you are going to think that whatever you see as good and right is an objective fact. Most people don't know this, but the majority of terfs start out as trans allies. You are not immune to propaganda! You are not immune to falling into dangerous ideologies!!!

This is why the most important thing you can do as an activist is to listen. Do NOT think you're above being wrong; do NOT develop a god complex; do NOT form an identity out of being right all the time. Involve yourselves in the groups you claim to speak for. Listen to trans women; share resources that help trans women; familiarize yourself with the diversity of experiences that trans people have and the struggles they face.

No, none of you are as bad as JKR because you don't have her money or her power. You will likely never have the capacity for harm she does. But check yourselves. Do not affirm yourselves into thinking you always have the moral high ground. Watch yourselves; humble yourselves; check yourselves for signs of cult behavior and internalized prejudice. You are always learning. You will always be learning. Do not allow yourselves to get a power trip from brushing off marginalized voices.

#copied from prev:#harry potter was not a covert attempt to brainwash children into fascism#they're very milquetoast 1990s british liberal#she used to fucking hate the tories#and yes there WERE some tells in her books that she had ye olde unexamined biases

#but in the wake of her going off the deep end people have twisted that into#''she was always a hateful bigot and hp was actually a nefarious attempt to corrupt children into sharing her bigotry''

#and like#no#she was once a well-meaning fairly progressive normie who just didn't think too hard about her own background assumptions about the world#and then she got famous and then she got older and she got radicalized by people who targeted her on purpose because she had#enough money and cultural caché to turn into real influence

#and she was completely unprepared to defend her worldview from people who were telling her that her knee-jerk reaction was always right#and anyone who said otherwise was not only a jerk but also a dangerous villain who wanted to hurt her and other innocent women and girls

#and y'all are not nearly as immune to those tactics as a lot of you think you are

#fuck the ghoul that jkr has become but the story of how she got here is not the story of a crypto-fascist who made it into mainstream#it is the cautionary tale of a normal decent person who fell down a bad rabbithole and got swallowed up by a hate movement

#re-writing history so you can pretend she was always evil won't protect you from sharing her fate

#you have to put in the effort to interrogate your own biases and your own knee-jerk disgust reactions#you have to take a minute every so often to step back and CHECK if you have ended up in an echo chamber bubble and touch grass a little

#because radicalization doesn't happen overnight and it can happen to any of us#it's very easy to let yourself believe that you're Correct and anyone who disagrees with you is Obviously Evil

#you have to force yourself to double-check that notion from time to time and to hang onto EXACTLY what it is that makes the other side wron#you can't just say ''well they're conservatives so obviously they're evil'' because that is how you wind up at ''these men are hurting youn#''girls by PRETENDING to be women in order to take advantage of the protections feminists have spent decades fighting for! and we shouldn't#''even be surprised really - men are awful after all. all they do is TAKE from women and PREY ON young girls. we all know this from our own#''bad experiences with men. and we were right to hate them for it! you see!!'' and whoops now you're a fucking terf

#it's easy it's so easy it's so fucking easy and i promise you i PROMISE you there is a hate group out there who has your fucking number#no matter how good and progressive and leftist you think you are there is SOMETHING that could radicalize you into hate if you let it#there is an argument about how certain people are Just Fundamentally Evil that would appeal to you and make sense to you

[sweaterkittensahoy]

the reason horseshoe theory is a useful concept is because all it takes is one fucking issue to put leftists and conservatives closer to each other than they are to either of their middle points. Rowling had the option to learn, admit previous blindspots, and do better through her massive platform. She chose, instead, the same victim complex of the worst relative at your holiday dinner who can't believe the black girl at the grocery store was mad at her for saying she was a "credit to her race."

Harry Potter isn't a manifesto. It's a book series. There aren't layers here. JK Rowling is just a huge fucking asshole who wants to say and do whatever she wants without being called a huge fucking asshole.

AO3 has been scraped, once again.

As of the time of this post, AO3 has been scraped by yet another shady individual looking to make a quick buck off the backs of hardworking hobby writers. This Reddit post here has all the details and the most current information. In short, if your fic URL ends in a number between 1 and 63,200,000 (inclusive), AND is not archive locked, your fic has been scraped and added to this database.

I have been trying to hold off on archive locking my fics for as long as possible, and I've managed to get by unscathed up to now. Unfortunately, my luck has run out and I am archive locking all of my current and future stories. I'm sorry to my lovelies who read and comment without an account; I love you all. But I have to do what is best for me and my work. Thank you for your understanding.

[florallychaotic]

Im gonna be so real can yall actually talk about ways we can support trans women in the UK instead of giving all the attention to fucking JKR. I already know that Harry Poter sucks, I wanna know how to actually HELP people. Something something you have to love the oppressed more than you hate the oppressor

do you think in a world where magic exists, stage magic/party tricks would have to be called something else because calling it magic would ironically make it seem more mundane. like. "i made this rabbit disappear" yeah whatever any wizard with minor teleportation abilities can do that. "i made this rabbit disappear with NO magic" oh shit now im interested.
