Why antisemites always have a blast—and how Jews enhance the experience
I just discovered this the other day, and it perfectly described the... for lack of a better term, "gleeful sadism" that permeates "antizionist not antisemetic" culture these days.
HOGWARTS SCHEDULE MASTERPOST because I haven’t done one of these yet (and because nerinelunacyran asked for one)!
First row is pretty explanatory (Years 1 and 2, look at the captions.) Third year on each take up a row, because they need two schedules to deal with the electives. The only way for the electives to make sense is for ‘elective’ to just be a slot in their timetable, and because each house shares a timeslot with another house, and both have two options, during every timeslot there are four elective options (so Monday period 3 of year 4, both Gryffindors and Slytherins can choose between Care of Magical Creatures, Arithmancy, Divination, or Ancient Runes). This way, a student from any house can take any combination of two electives. It’s complicated, but it works. Hermione Granger is special and kind of fucked up.
This fits in with canon as much as I was able to make it fit with canon; she did not give this a second of thought, and it’s painfully obvious if you actually look into it. Fifth year Gryffindors have a class that starts halfway through second period, for crying out loud that’s what periods are for. So there’s some artistic license that I’ve had to take, and of course filling in all the blanks was entirely just myself. I tried to keep the fictional students in mind and not give them awful schedules, too – I have spreadsheets for each house for each year, as well, to see what the kids would groan about in September. I gave the first-years four periods instead of five, because 3:30 is explicitly stated for their flying lessons, and during one Oliver Wood is still in class.
As far as how the teachers’ schedules work out or how Years 6 and 7 work or how this makes any sense at all: it really doesn’t, but I’m working with what I’ve got :P
This was created for the Pottermorphs AU, but feel free to use these schedules for whatever you want – I’d love a link back to this post, though, since I hope it’s obvious just how much work went into these.
The deuteranomaly and protanomaly ones are very similar but they are different. The purple section ranges out a little farther to the right in the protanomaly one. Not seeing the difference between might not indicate color blindness but rather difficulty with color differentiation.
I would argue that the two most perfect critiques of Harry Potter come from a pair of 4chan posts, which take opposite approaches to their critique but reach equally damning conclusions
the second one isn't because you meet people in real life and they just have names like that. i'm people in real life. and yes i do have a surname as a first name.
It’s also not valid because Cho literally isn’t the only Asian character. We also have Padma & Parvati Patil. There’s nothing wrong with their names, Patil is a common Indian surname and their first names really are names that are given to girls, I know 4 Padmas myself.
If anything the second poster is the racist one because they’re engaging in the subtle racism of “only East Asians count as Asian, South Asians don’t matter or don’t count.”
Critics on both the left and the right decry surrogacy as exploitative, especially when carriers are compensated.
Yet American surrogacy is nothing like the Brave New World of the right or The Handmaid's Tale of the left, and current research does not support critics' views. Instead, surrogacy is voluntary, gestational carriers are well-compensated to the tune of $30,000 to $60,000 personally, and the vast majority of carriers have their own legal representation during the process. Gestational carriers also report undergoing medical and psychological screenings, during which they are informed of the possible risks.
Gestational carriers typically have positive long-term psychological outcomes—and although pregnancy and fertility treatment are not risk-free, medical outcomes for gestational carriers resemble outcomes for the general population of women using IVF. Children resulting from surrogacy generally do well from a psychological and medical perspective.
If surrogates feel exploited by the process, the research doesn't show that. Instead, gestational carriers often experience a sense of self-worth and achievement following the process; there is little evidence of postsurrogacy regret, and many surrogates would consider carrying again. A long-term study that followed gestational and genetic surrogates in the U.K. found that no surrogates expressed regret about their involvement in surrogacy 10 years after the birth of a child. A separate survey showed 83 percent of gestational carriers in California said they would consider becoming a gestational carrier again.
As for financially compensated surrogacy:
Although compensation was not a central focal point for the Clarks and Schneiders, compensation is a major sticking point for critics of surrogacy in the U.S. and elsewhere. Various countries—including the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand—have made compensated surrogacy illegal while allowing uncompensated surrogacy.In the U.S., most surrogacy is compensated, and gestational carriers and intended parents are both made better off under voluntary compensated surrogacy arrangements. In a curious paradox, critics characterize surrogacy as "exploitative" but are eager to outlaw the payments that cover gestational surrogates' time, efforts, and voluntarily taken risks, even though outlawing payment would make gestational carriers objectively worse off.[…] Compensation helps efficiently allocate resources, provides incentives for participation, effectively signals a need, and ensures participants are treated fairly.
It's crazy to me how heavily no genitals is winning. I don't even like sex that much but idk. Modernity isn't so bad For ME. I guess for the world I'd have to pick no genitals utopia. But it'd be tough.... It's like. It's taking away something of humanity....I guess it's just genitals....
ive been getting some replies like this and its like, guys, im trying to engage with the premise of the poll. if i say "well MY utopia involves having the technology to give everyone cyborg genitals" or whatever then i feel im not really engaging with the question, right. if i can devise a utopia that completly negates the premise then im just doing that thing where people go "i would wish for infinite wishes" or "i would just save both people tied to the tracks". the point is that this is a tradeoff, if we make it no longer a tradeoff we are not engaging in good faith with the spirit of the question
My assumption would be that it’s a different type of reproduction that doesn’t require genitalia. What type depends on how exactly the lack of genitalia occurred. It’s possible humans bud like hydra, it’s possible we use vats and artificial dna splicing. Not really sure how you can have a utopia if its very premise is based on it being doomed.
let's ignore the inquisition and pretend they've moved on.
let's ignore how catholic they are.

keep going.
EDIT: So, spain was antisemitic enough that I opened up enough tabs that I forgot their...wonderful traditions:
(that's leon. incidentally, they are apparently accidentally self-aware enough that this is a local tradition:
also, in 2014 in the same province:
"no no no, it's fine, we appropriated a symbol, too!")
anyway, yeah. forgot about that amid the parade of judenhass
pedro
pedro, is this you?
PEDRO BE CONSISTENT (to be clear, both the article i'm quoting here and the one above are from april 2026)
so that's a double standard. anyway.
pedro...?
pedro, you do realize that nuking israel won't help, right? right??
to be clear, i think that it's okay that the word is in there if it's being used as such. pretending like people don't use it as insult does no one any good. but not flagging it as offensive and discriminatory is...not.

A spanish-jewish website:
Spain: The Promised Land of the new antisemites?
From the same website, on the Museo Reina Sofia:
Essentially, in February of this year, a group of visitors, including some old Jewish women, were called, among other things, child killers. Instead of responding, staff asked the victims to *checks notes* be less Jewish or leave.
Meanwhile:
Well, they're going to be if France decides to copy you...the incident, by the way:
ah yes, how disruptive.

don'tcha love it when ferdinand and isabella's direct descendant steals our heritage back and says they're proud of the sephardic roots they dumped herbicides on for fucking centuries?
damn right he's proud of the sephardic roots -- he's proud they didn't grow into anything, not in spain anyway.

Before many women could vote in the United States, they lobbied male legislators to change statutory rape laws and gained political skills i
The very first bill ever proposed by a female lawmaker in the United States came from Colorado state representative Carrie Clyde Holly in January 1895. Building on a decade of women’s activism, Holly’s ambitious legislation sought to raise the age of consent in the state to 21 years old. In 1890, the age at which girls could consent to sex was 12 or younger in 38 states. In Delaware, it was seven. Such statutes had consequences extending from the safety and wellbeing of young girls to women’s future place in society and their potential for upward mobility. To women reformers of various stripes—temperance advocates, labor leaders and suffragists—Holly and her historic bill symbolized what was possible when women gained a voice in politics: the right to one’s own body.
By petitioning legislators in dozens of states to revise statutory rape laws, these women forged interracial and cross-class collaborations and learned the political skills they’d later use to push for suffrage. Today, as the United States marks the centennial of the ratification of the 19th Amendment, the impact of women in politics, and their fight to maintain their bodily autonomy, remain touchstones of the nation’s political conversation.
