Barnes and Nobles is gonna start serving food and alcohol.
Everybodyâs cracking jokes about how itâs a desperate attempt to stay relevant in the age of Amazon.
But you know what? Props to them. This is exactly what Blockbuster didnât do. At no point was Blockbuster like âHey, movie rentals arenât the lucrative enterprise they once were. Perhaps itâs time we become known for our cheesy garlic bread.â
Okay butâŠif someone wants to take me on a date to a Barnes and noble and get me dinner and a drink and then let me peruse the stacks like Iâm not saying no. A sandwich, a beer, and 2-5 books on various topics I hope Iâll someday read about? Good night.
The Swedish equivalent of Blockbuster is now best known for its candy, snacks and sodas.
This is El Ateneo Grand Splendid, an old theatre turned bookstore in Buenos Aires:
The stage itself was turned into a cafe:
You canât even begin to comprehend the massive amounts of money this place makes, despite the fact that they turned the theatre boxes into reading nooks like this:
Iâve literally spent days holed up in there reading books for free while also consuming massive amounts of coffee and pastries.
Adapt or die, people.
Take me to Buenos freaking Aires⊠Leave me in this bookshop⊠Never look for me, you will not find me again.
If I ever get to Buenos Aires Iâmma vanish into this bookshop and live there forever.Â

My dear cinnamon roll Wylan Van Eck, too sweet for this worldÂ
â I told you, I like your stupid face â
Wylan belongs to Leigh Bardugo
okay but imagine that james wasnât in the house that halloween. he was talking to dumbledore or out to get groceries or anything that has him out of the house. so lily is home alone but she still sacrifices herself for her son, so the curse still rebounds and hits voldemort and âkillsâ him. so harry is still the boy who lived, but james is alive.Â
and of course itâs awful. itâs a terrible moment, burying lily. james is devestated and has no idea how heâs going to raise harry alone. he has to testify that peter betrayed the order, because heâs alive to pass on the knowledge that peter was his secret keeper, not sirius. sirius doesnât go to prison because heâs too busy helping james cope with lilyâs death to go after peter, and peterâs already faked his death by the time he can leave james.Â
remus and sirius move in with james to help take care of harry, because he swears he canât do it on his own. remus doesnât have to focus on rent and food money because james tells him heâs family, so he can focus on a job he actually enjoys such as editing or writing, something freelance so he can take full moons off and no one will wonder why.Â
sirius refuses to get any job beside full time babysitter, curls up as padfoot and keeps harry warm and safe, especially when the boy gets older and starts having nightmares about what happened to his mom.Â
harry is raised in the wizarding world, with the most protective family of anyone heâs ever met, and invites ron and hermione over to his house during the summer and somehow padfoot always gets them into some sort of trouble.Â
when harry goes through hardships at hogwarts, he always has his dad to turn to. james would stroke his hair back from his forehead and kiss his sonâs scar and remind him, âyour mother was the most brilliant witch there ever was and sheâs watching over you, so youâll never have to worry.âÂ
even when pettigrew comes back and revives voldemort, james is on the quidditch pitch the minute harry comes back with the cup and cedricâs dead body, remus and sirius right behind him and swearing heâll destroy anyone who doesnât take his son seriously.Â
the fight at the ministry harryâs fifth year, james would remind sirius to keep focused, remind him not to get overwhelmed with adrenaline and to focus, and would watch not just harryâs back but his best friendsâ too. when he sees sirius too focused on making fun to notice bellatrix amazing a curse straight at him, he dives in front of it to push sirius out of the way and ends up in St. Mungoâs after the fight, a little bruised and battered but with promises that heâll heal and a sheepish apology from Padfoot in the former of an old, drool covered chew toy.Â
when harry disappears seventh year, he and james keep in contact with the magical mirrors that belonged to sirius and james paces the kitchen every evening, listening to potterwatch and shrugging off Siriusâ shoulder on his hand telling him that their boy will be okay because heâs incredibly smart and incredibly brave and honestly mate howâd you make such an amazing boy?Â
and then the fight at hogwarts happens. remus and sirius have each otherâs backs and james just wants to find harry. he does, a little too late, being carried out of the woods in hagridâs arms. he breaks down and drops to his knees and remus and sirius look at each other and think, âthere is no way we can fix him after this.âÂ
but then harry is back and voldemort is dead and jamesâ face is tear stained and theyâre all worn out and bruised but their family is alive and sirius, a little hesitantly, offers, ââŠso who wants ice cream?â
Ow my heart.
Well fuck
me, an aroace: idk maybe i could see myself in a relationship they donât look horrible
me, as soon as someone approaches me with romantic intent:Â
professor flitwick was ruthless as fuck like he even addressed harry by his name whilst asking for his nameÂ
I think what I find even funnier is that Harry doesnât use the âIâm Harry Potterâ response. He uses the âYouâve been my teacher for five yearsâ response.
@petel-ka asked me to draw her idea. Harry Potter became the Light Lord :D and changed all dark marks with his âLighting boltâ. Not his original zigzaging one but nature lighting bolt
Beautiful art by @nataly-lanier depicting the intriguing idea of @petel-ka đđœđđœ
having a permanent full time job is you thinking to yourself âso this is really the rest of my life huhâ as you come home every single day before using your 4 hours of recreational activity to do nothing and then going to bed
11 Questions Tag
Ages ago I was tagged by @helenrasing and I finally finished it :DÂ
Always repost the rules. Answer 11 random questions posted for you. Create 11 new questions and tag 11 people. Let the person who tagged you know that youâve answered.
1. Your favourite word ever (language not important)?
some of my current and all time faves would be: parapluie, vocĂȘ, mandarynka, Einhörnchen (even though itâs not a real word butâŠegal :D), discombobulated
2. Why is this your favourite word?
eh, no idea, because they sound fun or I have some weird associations with themÂ
3. Do you know sign language?
no
4. Do you think everybody should know sign language?
er, I think it would be definitely nice if society payed more attention to that and maybe sign language classes at schools would be a good idea but then againâŠdoes everyone have to speak English for example? I donât want to sound ignorant or arrogant in any way but I donât think learning any language should be mandatory.
5. If you had to delete a language from your head, which one would it be?
Spanish. I know it the least, most of it just disappeared from my brain and IÂ also enjoyed it the least out of all the languages Iâve studied or tried to study
6. Is your family multicultural?
ah, define family. yes and no
7. How did/do your interests influence your learning of a language?
A lot. English: I just really wanted to learn it and I wanted to have access to all the media available primarily in English (music, books, tv shows, youtube etc). With SpanishâŠIâd say my lack of or very tiny interest in that language made me not very dedicated to studying it further and focusing more on German instead. As for German basically my plans for the future made me study it more. And all the other languages I tried to study⊠I picked them up only because I was interested in them (or with Russian I was scared I would have it at school but luckily I didnât because we didnât have the right chemistry)
8. Do you have a languages-to-learn-list?
Em, no, I donât. I know that I want to master German and if by this time Iâm not in retirement age (on the other hand I would have a lot of free time then :D) and have time for it I would like to try some other languages and possibly sticking by one of them IF I enjoy it but Iâm definitely not set on having to become fluent or even advanced in a 4th language after Iâm satisfied with my German.
9. Discuss this list (8)!
WellâŠI didnât give you any list :D but I think if I had to choose another language rn it would be Italian. Iâm also interested in Portuguese, Dutch and French but idk, they are all a bit scary.Â
10. Can you sing a song in a language that is not your mother-tongue?
yes I can
ROSA ROSA ROSA
11. You are founding your own country. What is the official language?
Cat. meow.
I think I would rather to focus on geopolitical issues tbh. But probably English, just to be boring :D
Here are my questions for you:

What is your least favourite colour?

Do you send postcards to your friends and family when you go on vacation? Why, why not?
What is one thing on your to-do list?
And what is one book on your to-be-read list?
What is the most fabulous thing you have ever cooked or baked?
