like we really hate to hear this - but power is in every human relationship. unless you are the exact same as your partner in age, class, race, ethnicity, religion, language, nationality, citizenship status, gender, sexual orientation, physical and mental ability, salary, education, etc, you have to negotiate the problems material power differentials pose to love, to treating others well. the response to this seems to have been to make certain points of difference - like age - load-bearing, in a way that erases others - class would be my example: far bigger a power disparity than, say, a ten year gap in age between adults is class and inheritable wealth, but you almost never see that acknowledged in the same way. and even if you were at parity in all those areas (gay twincest sweep??) there is still the emotional power that someone’s love and desire for you gives you over them. you can’t get rid of it. you cannot find the perfect relationship where it doesn’t exist by steadily winnowing down your “ethical” options via widening designations of “problematic relationships.” you have to confront the power you have over other people and think how you will wield it most lightly. sorry!

I think I found my new favorite rabbit hole. This voice actor does Shakespeare scenes in a southern accent and I need to see the whole damn play. Absolutely beautiful

Top 10 favourite hp characters???

1. auntie muriel [she's firing out banger after banger from the second she arrives on the page and she sustains that level until the moment the wedding ends - fantastic energy, i love to see it]

2. that auld fella at the quidditch world cup who refuses to wear trousers [live your truth, king]

3. dawlish [both voldemort and dumbledore take the time to point out that he's completely incompetent and then the conclusion of his character arc is him getting fucking wrecked by an old lady]

4. mrs cole [day-drinking is a proud tradition and i'm delighted she honoured it - harry being genuinely impressed by how much she can put away is one of the funniest things he ever does]

5. the portrait in st mungo's which claims ron has spattergroit and which deserves to be thanked for clearly inspiring his cover-story in deathly hallows

6. gladys gudgeon, who doesn't abandon her devotion to lockhart, even after his brain injury

7. madam rosmerta [she manages to sustain her position as the hottest woman in hogsmeade over a period of at least twenty years - unmatched aura]

8. the employee at the owl office who received a postal order form from a cat and thought "legit"

9. piers polkiss [yer man finessed multiple day-trips out of the dursleys, what a #girlboss]

10. hagrid's dad [he walked so that the monster-fucking girlies on tumblr could run, and don't you forget it]

My favorite thing about J. Jonah Jameson is that he just hates Spider-Man. He supports mutants and doesn't hate enhanced people. He's not racist, sexist, homophobic, or transphobic. He just hates Spider-Man. And I'm half convinced that he's faking for the publicity.

He'd probably get pissed if he hears someone hating on Spider-Man for being enhanced.

"Spiderman isn't a menace because he can climb walls! He's a menace because he's climbing walls without a license or safety equipment! He's setting a bad example!"

"I just want you to know that you that your identity as an enhanced person is valid. Your identity as Spiderman is trash."

a siddur belonging to marilyn monroe, complete with her annotations in pencil. many remember her as a sex symbol who lived a difficult life, but few know of her conversion & devotion to judaism. "everybody's always out to get them, no matter what they do," said monroe. "like me."
