You ever follow someone and then find out they think Dumbledore is a hero. Immediately unfollowed. Their art was nice tho.
there is literally no point in me doing a masters. but i could always do a masters
I still celebrate valentines with my best friend, while we never do anything too big one of us always asks the other to be their valentines and it’s one of my favourite traditions that we have going on for 12 years now. Valentines is meant to be a holiday to celebrate love why does it have to be restricted to romantic love?
aro culture is kind of forgetting that valentine’s day is supposed to be for romantic love because you always figured it was for all love (mostly because school always had students hand out candies so it SEEMED like a celebration for loving your friends….)
this is one of those things where i swear, people are like "oho children, this is what this is!" and then a few years later are like "oho, you believed that? You silly child of course I was lying!"
this is so similar to my experience as a trans guy and i have to agree. everyone seems to write the trans experience as the same all the time it’s exhausting, but i don’t want to be seen as ungrateful cause i still love reading about those trans experiences
Why is every version of trans!Reg I've seen the exact same
Like it's always the same exact thing of him coming out, cutting his hair, whacking on a binder, and then passing really easily and I feel like it only ever shows that one trans experience. Nobody talks about the transmascs who can't 'pass well' even when we try
Where's Reg keeping his hair mid-length bc he can't pull off any shorter haircuts and he'd rather look like a girl than a gremlin
Where's Reg spending half an hour on his trans tape and then looking at the result in the mirror and going 'well that's a B cup at best' because not every transmasc has a small bust
Constantly getting told his hands are so sweet and soft and having to go 'oh 😀 thanks'
Feeling good when he's done his eyeliner and lipstick but knowing he can't wear it in public and still have any chance at passing
Not being able to correct people when they misgender him bc he can't even blame them for getting it wrong and is absolutely terrified of their response
Wearing men's colognes and hoping for the best knowing it won't make a difference
Not even bothering to bind half of the time because it's so much hassle for hardly any effect
Not every trans masc has the same experience and I feel like people only ever write one version
don't ever look up what your childhood friends are up to now!!!!!!!!!! like girl you're a nuclear safety engineer. i put on matching socks today. we played tag a thousand years ago.
being on the aro spectrum would be a lot easier if being single wasn’t made to feel like a literal death sentence
Aro culture is a slow journey of finding your own peace.

Ok I love this, I’m hard of hearing myself and seeing this kind of representation in one of my favourite characters is amazing and you bet your arse I’m going to write this
I'm sick of everyone thinking the black brothers are perfect, they were the product of inbreeding. Of course, they had medical conditions, so here are my headcanons about it.
Sirius is hard of hearing
Most of his friends just thought that Sirius had a hard time paying attention
Remus eventually figured it out because Sirius didn't hear things that everyone else could when they were all paying utmost attention.
After Remus told McGonagall she gave Sirius books about spells that would work like hearing aids
Sirius was confused at that time because even he didn't know about his being hard of hearing.
Madame Pomfrey had to tell him that if someone's family (like his) is inbreeding that the child could have a lot of medical conditions
She told him that it could have been worse but Sirius immediately ran out of the room
He then came back with his younger brother, who was only 12 at the time, and requested that she check Regulus's ears
Sirius might not have liked Regulus but he still thought that his brother deserved to know if he had a medical condition
Regulus had perfect hearing, however, Regulus had Hemophilia
(For those of you who don't know, Hemophilia is a blood clotting disorder that makes you bleed a lot even from the tiniest cuts, many inbreed royals over the years have had it)
To Sirius this was a very bad thing, so for the rest of the year Sirius watched Regulus like a hawk
Anyway, it was fun to bring science into the equation.
im tired of people having these little nuances like i was talking about the word hate and i said “i hate nazis” and my friend was like hmm hates a strong word. for nazis ? no the fuck it is not. i could use stronger words too. i could curbstomp their sorry asses. i hate nazis and you all better hate nazis too
