The Anti-Christ came and went, but no one noticed because he wasnât worse than the current state of the world already is. The rapture followed, but no one went to Heaven, so we didnât notice that either. Weâve been living in Hell for the last 5 years, and no one has noticed, yet.

THANK YOU
I love this one personally.
It gotta better
THISđISđSOđIMPORTANTđ These comics RADIATE good dad energy and I am LIVING for it!
This one made me so happy.
how many muggle born kids showed up at hogwarts like, âi get youâre into magic and donât get me wrong, magic is awesome, but please donât try and tell me quills and inkwells make more sense than pencils. i realize you have an aesthetic going, but admit itâs that. admit itâs just for looks.â
Imagine how many muggles parents looked at the supply list and went âParchment? Quills? INKWELLS? Fuck this weâre going to staples.â
And then imagine if the muggle parents start getting into arguments with the teachers when they start getting messages telling them their kids arenât using the proper materials.
âOkay look we can accept working with frog livers, turning mice into fine china, and whatever the fuck âarithmancyâ is but weâre not going to let you shame our kids just because they choose to use a bic pen instead of this âye old inkwellâ bullshit. Also. itâs called a spiral notebook and Iâm not gonna make my Abby drag around five hundred feet of loose parchment just because you people have a theme going.â
Aesthetic or death
Iâve got to wonder, though, how much of the school supply list at Hogwarts is based on aesthetic and how much is based on what the Muggle world was like when wizards retreated into secrecy. Like, how many wizards who havenât taken Muggle Studies are aware that nobody uses inkwells and quill pens anymore? And I bet the Muggle parents over the years have always just assumed âwell there must be some reason for all this, it must work better with these supplies, there must be something inherently magical in parchmentâ and just went with it.
Give me the story of the Muggle-born witch whose parents canât afford all the fancy school supplies, who literally cringe when theyâre told about the fund for âunderprivileged studentsâ because theyâre not POOR but theyâve got four other children and two of them need special care, who scrimp and save and scrape together until they can afford the school supply list even if most of itâs secondhand, but they start at the top of the list with the things that HAVE to be bought in Diagon Alley and go from there, and when they get towards the end of the list they start making do.
On September 1, in this big crowd of ickle firsties, thereâs one who stands out because her robes donât look quite right but no one can quite pinpoint why, until an older student asks her the next day and she shyly admits that her mother made them for her out of some fabric sheâs had lying around for a while. She gets to her first class and sits in the back because sheâs a little embarrassed and pulls out the battered secondhand textbook and her wand and everything else she needs, prepared to take notes, and everythingâs going along just fine until Professor Flitwick suddenly stops in the middle of his lecture and asks what sheâs doing, and she just freezes but manages to stammer out that sheâs just taking notes, Professor.
Flitwick is suddenly at her side, how did he get there so quickly, and examining her cheap retractable pen and the packet of looseleaf paper in a flimsy three-ring binder where the center ring is already out of alignment, and the other Muggle-borns and half-bloods in the class are snickering because look at this loser who didnât know you need parchment and quills for this, who ever heard of doing magic with a biro, but Flitwick is fascinated and asks if he can try one, and maybe she tells him to keep that one because she has more (even though she only has a couple more, but she can make do with pencils, and surely somebody around here will loan her a little bit of ink to refill one of her pens if she needs to, I mean, it canât be that hard to fill up the little ink sticks inside of them, can it?) and he beams at her like sheâs just given him the House Cup and goes back to teaching like nothing has happened.
And then all of her teachers are asking her about these things, and maybe a few of the other Muggle-born students tentatively help her answer them, and when McGonagall presses her she admits that her parents couldnât afford to get her everything she needed and it was a lot cheaper to go to the shop on the corner and pick up a half-dozen packs of looseleaf and a packet of pens than it was to buy the quill and parchment and honestly, Professor, I didnât think it would matter, and McGonagall smiles because she remembers her own father and says it doesnât.
The next year the school supply list says only ink-based writing utensils and parchment or lined paper and a few of the more traditionalist pureblood families insist on only sending their children with quills and inkwells, but there are other studentsâa lot of other studentsâwith retractables and stick pens and a couple of the older Muggle-born students come in with really nice quality fountain pens and thereâs a whole black market (or at least grey market) going on with regards to the buying and selling and trading of glitter gel pens and a lot of debates over whether fine-tipped pens or the broader ones are better and thereâs at least one kid whoâs got one of those gigantic foot-long novelty click pens because what, you said it had to be ink-based, so what if itâs an inch thick and hot pink with Disney princesses all over it, itâs still a pen, and within a few years nobody can remember why there was such an issue with them in the first place.
Nobody has the slightest idea what to do the first time a student shows up with his grandfatherâs typewriter, though.

natalie portman radiates such a terrifying energy i canât describe itâŠ.. itâs not exactly evil but itâs not warm eitherâŠ. i feel like she could unhinge her jaw and drag me into the ocean like a kraken but she wouldnât bc itâs undignifiedÂ
Wanna know why?
âOscar-winning actress Natalie Portman told the crowd at Saturdayâs Womenâs March in downtown Los Angeles that she experienced what she calls âsexual terrorismâ as a 13-year-old after the release of the film The Professional.
Portman described her pride and excitement in releasing the film, only to encounter sexually explicit messages both directed toward her and made about her.
âI excitedly opened my first fan mail to read a rape fantasy that a man had written me,â she recalled. âA countdown was started on my local radio show to my 18th birthday, euphemistically the date that I would be legal to sleep with. Movie reviewers talked about my budding breasts in reviews.â
The experience, she said, changed the way she expressed herself publicly, in order to limit the ways she could be objectified by others.
âI understood very quickly, even as a 13-year-old, that if I were to express myself sexually, I would feel unsafe,â she said. âAnd that men would feel entitled to discuss and objectify my body to my great discomfort. So I quickly adjusted my behavior. I rejected any role that even had a kissing scene and talked about that choice deliberately in interviews. I emphasized how bookish I was and how serious I was. And I cultivated an elegant way of dressing. I built a reputation for basically being prudish, conservative, nerdy, serious, in an attempt to feel that my body was safe and that my voice would be listened to.â
Video of the speech here:Â https://www.vox.com/2018/1/21/16917130/natalie-portman-womens-march
I support Natalie Portman unhinging her jaw and dragging every last man who made her feel this way into the deep like a kraken.
The water was cold
The best damn thing about Quidditch is thereâs no gender separation like wizards donât give a fuck if youre boy or girl as long as you chuck that damn quaffle through the goal.
nonbinary quidditch players- âare you a boy or a girl?â âiâm a seekerâ âyeah but whatâs between your legs?â âa broom, usuallyâ
Cellulite is a female secondary sex characteristic and should be celebrated as a rite of womanhood, not despised or eradicated.
itâs really a secondary sex characteristic?!Â
It is. It has to do with the way our bodies network fat. Female bodies create sort of a mesh network to support fat (female bodies are MUCH more hardy in times of stress) and it can present as delightfully lumpy. More than 90% of women have visible cellulite, but all women store fat in this manner.
why did no one tell me this?!
You know why :/
Spread this. I only just started to see mine and I started to freak out a bit. More people should/need to know about this
Hereâs an illustration of the aforementioned difference in fat storage.
Menâs lattice pattern collagen threads holds subcutaneous fat in a way that, when the skin expands because of the fat storage, it expands evenly. Womenâs âpocketsâ expand unevenly when we accumulate fat, creating that orange peel effect. Our storage pattern means we can healthily store more fat than men. Like a woman with 25% body fat is average, a man with 25% body fat is chubby. Because of that, like OP said, women are hardier in times of stress or famine. Itâs also one of the reasons why our bodies can survive pregnancy, which is a massive energy demand on our system.
And thereâs absolutely NO âtreatmentâ for cellulite that will work. They are all bullshit designed to separate you from your hard-earned cash. Itâs a secondary sex characteristic, itâs perfectly normal and itâs not going away no matter what you do. Like Iâm very lean myself and I work out 5~6 times a week, and I still have cellulite. Someone giving a woman shit for having cellulite is akin to giving her shit for having skin. Itâs just a mixture of misogyny and corporate greed.
Love your lumpy skin, ladies. It means you are a badass surviving machine shaped by millenia of evolution.
I did not know this, and I pride myself on knowing shit like this.
I actually cried reading this oh man
we need carbs and we need fats and we need proteins and honestly fuck diet culture for normalizing malnourishmentÂ
People commenting on this saying we donât need sugars donât know how the human body works
