The Likes of Finn

A struggeling millennial writer absolutely willing to talk about her Hogwarts house and why she identifies with it so much. ✨️ (Finn | She/Her | My Birthyear starts with 19...) Sometimes I just ramble about traumatised Vampires…!

Love that Moneypenny had to basically run out of her office cos James just had to rail Theresa.

[thelikesoffinn]

Ok, so, Monroe definitely dies.

Uggghhhhh I wanna play 007 but it's so expensiiivvveeeee

[thelikesoffinn]

Sometimes, I wish all visual and interactive novel devs would legally be required to give at least a tiny bit of an indication of when the next book/chapter is coming out.

Like, bruv, I want to replay your fucking games, but if I replay them now and the continuation comes out in like two weeks, I'll be mad cos I need to replay everything immediately before playing the new one but I can't cos I literally just replayed them on a random Tuesday!

JUST GIVE US A YEAR AND A SEASON, OK 😭

[thelikesoffinn]

If I have one pet peeve it's when bitches are arguing about words from languages they don't even speak but consider offensive cos it is vaguely reminiscent of a slur from their native language.

Yara is a little bit of a weirdo, especially when she’s sporting her favorite plushie purse. Good thing Hamzah finds it endearing 😄❤️ (Nuhro is sometimes confused lol) Dating era for these two, also bonus little solo illustration of them from a previous post (he’s opening her soda for her 🥹)

Someone said "Are you really so stupid to think that Africa has the same technological advances as us? If they did they would probably have clean water and not live in houses made of sticks and mud. Get over yourself and stop being so ignorant."..... Below is a tiny collection of images of the Africa they refuse to show you..

ches

I’m sorry you’ve been made to believe that the whole of Africa is poor, I really am..

[shez-a-b0mbshell]

Reblogging for those of you who think Africa is only what the media and movies portrays it to be

[teddybearnova]

This fucks me up because it’s scary to think that we can be showed something all our lives and not even know it’s a lie

[2ollux-double-bulge]

And that my friend is the power of propaganda, indoctrination, and media

[the-collecting-turnip-deactivat]

Are these pictures of South Africa or of Africa as a whole? 

[fgsshinyhoard]

@the-collecting-turnip From top to bottom:

1. Port Elizabeth (South Africa)

2. Unknown

3. Nairobi (Kenya)

4. Pretoria (South Africa)

5. Aburi Botanical Gardens (Ghana)

6. Cape Town (South Africa)

7. Pretoria (South Africa)

8. Harare (Zimbabwe)

9. Windhoek (Namibia)

10. Windhoek (Namibia)

To @kushandwizdom this is a rather unfair portrayal of Africa as a whole since half of these are literally just South Africa.  So Instead to add to this post and better dispel the myth of Africa as the vast wasteland of poverty most people think, I found a much more mixed collection of pics from various countries.

Luanda, Angola

Agadir, Morocco

Lagos, Nigeria

Cairo, Egypt

Port Louis, Mauritius

Abidjan, Cote d’Ivoire

Algiers, Algeria

Tripoli, Libya

Dar es Salaam, Tanzania

Tunis, Tunisia

So, there, a much better case demonstrating the various major cities around Africa showing it isn’t some technologically backwards continent, but actually pretty up-and-coming in the world of commerce.

I once was talking to my Ethiopian manager about ignorant people asking her dumb shit about her life before she moved to the states…

the worst story she told me about was when she told a fellow student (at a fairly prestigious university) about a concert she went to back home. The other student responded with “omg you have music there!?” 🤦🏾‍♀️

[cricketcat9]

Rebloging, because we need to see these pictures. 

As for stupid questions: “do you have grocery stores in Ecuador?”

[justgot1]

These are great!

A redneck neighbor once asked my mom (in the 80s) if they had cars in Peru. Sigh.

This is the product of poor world history in school & little current affairs coverage outside Western Europe, except for catastrophes, so all we see are the war torn, poverty stricken, disaster-affected parts on the news. And racism, of course.

[lettingitoutabit-deactivated202]

I bet most Americans who think that African countries are just completely poverty stricken have no idea what the US looks like in its poorest areas, not everywhere in the US is nice suburbs or unrealistically large apartments on tv

[for-southendgirls]

Los Angeles, California

Hartford, Connecticut

New Orleans, Louisiana

Camden, New Jersey

Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

McDowell County, West Virginia

Flint, Michigan

Washington, D.C.

Do you see the world as it is, or as someone told you it is?

[hogwartsconsultingtimelady]

This photoset proves you can make anywhere look great or terrible. It’s all framing and more people should know about that

[gamebird]

Worth a reblog. I don’t think the US version was on there when I first reblogged.

[holyfudgebuckets]

All of this is true, and also- those stick and mud houses are actually amazing examples of indigenous African knowledge. They are being studied for their thermal properties and sustainability.

Of course traditional African homes look different from homes in the US or Europe- they’ve started from different climates and resources. It’s such racist hubris to assume different means lesser-than.

Do you still sleep in Grass thatched houses ‼️😳

Hey Fam Thank you for coming by Another video here answering why we sleep in grass thatched houses Hahahha some people clearly don’t know wh

https://share.google/MCbqIYkdTvWZ3TgTA

[aetherograph]

also also, the racism of saying “oh they build with sticks and mud” like we don’t do the same thing. Stick-built is a fucking category of Victorian house! Stucco is just mud! Plaster is just mud! Adobe is just mud! Clay is just mud! EVERYONE builds with sticks and mud! It’s very telling that people only use words like “sticks” and “mud” when they’re being insulting. Buddy I live in a house made of sticks and mud too.

I'm probably going niche here, but have the creators of 'Replay Boys' ever spoken up about a new project or anything? The game was awesome but I can't find aaaaany news online at all.

[thelikesoffinn]

I know people ship Leon with Ada and Claire and whatnot, but I just want him to go home to a tiny chubby woman with a blindingly bright smile that grows and sells flowers, makes a mean lasagna and decorates their home with the cutest, coziest shit you could ever imagine.

[thelikesoffinn]

Just finished the Cyber Manhunt games for the billionth time. I fucking adore them, but God it's empty here. It's like me and five other people holding down the fort.

[thelikesoffinn]

I'm always confused when people are so shocked that Germany has good music.

Like. Yeah. Obviously we do. Not all of it, but there's a lot of good music. The hell are you even saying.

[thelikesoffinn]

It's five a.m. and the cool guy found God.

Somehow an underwhelming yet expected conclusion.

[thelikesoffinn]

Also, the fact that the ginger Sharpay Evans caricature wanted to use the video of Max singing at the camp fire as proof of his dramatic change was just weird.

Sure, it could be a change of heart but chances are he just caught the singing bug bro.
