7 most unhinged canon drarry moments

Harry calling Draco his arch nemesis just a few months after Lord Voldemort tried to murder him for the second time but also immediately thinking that he kinda misses him

Harry getting hit in the head by a piece of luggage because he got so distracted by the sight of Draco changing that he didn’t notice someone swinging a large object at his face

Harry lying to the Order and Magical Law Enforcement to obfuscate Draco’s crimes at the end of sixth year

Voldemort immediately assuming Draco has gone looking for Harry when he goes missing during the Battle of Hogwarts…and being right

Narcissa assuming Harry will know where Draco is and if he’s still alive…and being right

Lucius getting mad at Draco in book 2 because he has spent the entire summer talking nonstop about Harry Potter

Harry forgetting about the time Voldemort possessed and nearly murdered Ginny but remembering every item he saw Draco look at in Borgin and Burkes 4 years previously

Do y’all ever reread an old unpublished fanfic you wrote and then get invested on the storyline but get sad because you never wrote the next part of it, just me?

Was Remus' boggart always the moon, or did it only become that when he no longer had to fear losing everyone he loved?

electing a brown skinned cop who uses imperial feminism to reinforce American exceptionalism all while she backs the same colonial projects and state funded violence that allows for the re-criminalization of poverty, the erasure of civil rights, and the expansion prison industrial complex is not a win.

there are a multitude of ways and workings to disrupt, divest, and dismantle the master’s house. kamala winning this election doesn’t fix this lovecraft country. kamala winning this election means a return to our communities to manifest direct action, collective liberation, and radical abolition that upRoots fascism, imperialism, and white supremacy from our gardens.

James- Draw me like one of ur French girls

*Bats his eyelashes with a grin*

Regulus- You're an idiot

*James grinning as regulus yanks James's collar, pulling him into a kiss. James pulls regulus closer by the hips*

Regulus-Take ur clothes off

James- Wha-what?!?

*Regulus backs up and takes his sketchbook out*

Regulus- You asked, so deal with it. Take em off.

The Terror is both a celebration and a warning of the certain breed of masculinity which you come into as a white man. A celebration, as a trans man, as there’s so many different narratives of masculinity to follow in the show, both adherences and rejections to heteronormativities. A warning with the hubris this certain brand of white masculinity which celebrates imperialistic thinking and ultimately dooms both them and harms the indigenous people whose home they are trapped in by their own doing. The show asks, “What is a man?” But really the question is, “What is an English man?”

The performance of Fitzjames in a faux masculinity, in his pursuit of vanity he clings to it. Only in the private, authentic moment of femininity does he see his real face in the mirror, bloodied and decaying from the scars of his imperialistic persona. The resolute marine Tozer, the paragon of masculine strength, finally breaking in composure and confiding in another man who cups his face. Goodsir, the soft academic, emasculated in physical strength, is the one to point out the imperialist lie— but he too is duped about the English man. “This isn’t what we’re like.”

No, Goodsir, this is the foundations of their masculine truth— and only to question their very structure of gender itself will save them. Or at least, be a fun little read on ao3.

Some Dumbledore and Snape thoughts while i drink my coffee:

As a Snape and dumbledore enjoyer i do think it’s interesting how differently the fandom treats them.

For example i made a post about Dumbledore on tiktok yesterday, over 24 hours ago, that hasn’t even broke 2000 views, and today i made a post about Snape that will likely hit 5000 views before it hits hour two of being up.

(I am very aware of tt algorithm and posted them at similar times and similar traffic days so let’s remove that from the variable!)

My comments on the Dumbledore post are mostly attempts to discredit his feats or faulting JKR for lazy writing (fair and true) despite the fact that overall Dumbledore’s achievements have the greatest impact on the entire story. Him defeating Grindelwald is in fact the only reason we even have the story of Harry Potter; not to mention despite some manipulation and heavy handed schemes Dumbledore is firmly a pillar for the greater good. Not to mention the complexities that make him such an interesting character.

Conversely my comment section on the Snape video is full of praise and even contributions for other fantastical things he may or may not have done in canon. Occasionally there’s a hate comment, but it’s overwhelmingly positive. Snape is arguably much more of polarizing character in canon and does things that made some fans life long haters.

I’m mentioning this not because i believe Snape needs more haters or deserves less praise; but because i am confused by how little fans Dumbledore seems to have.

I know this has to do with HC’s surrounding him and his relationship to the marauders etc but i do think it’s interesting that on paper Dumbledore is exactly the type of character the fandom claims to want and enjoy (powerful, complex character with a doomed romance and self sacrificing tendencies) but he is often rejected on a basis of perception.

Anyways just my thoughts on how interesting the effect of fandom culture is on people’s view of characters.

Funnily enough,in the ten minutes i spent typing this up, the snape video hit 5k, and the dumbledore video received a singular view in that time.

How come the media could have endless coverage about every time Biden made a gaffe or slurred his speech but there's not the same furor and energy around covering the fact that Donald Trump literally openly admitted that he wants to abolish voting?! (X) (X)

Vote Blue all the way down the ballot to save democracy. This is so much bigger than any type of partisanship or party alignment or petty politics. Dictatorships hurt EVERYONE. Everyone's future and freedom and safety is at stake. Vote to save your freedoms. Vote to save your life.

Vote now because if the GOP gets their way you won't get another chance. Abstaining or voting for a third party makes you complicit.

The choice is simple: Freedom or Fascism.

I think there should be more weirdly neutral conspiracy theories about politicians, so here are two I'm proposing:

Donald Trump doesn't eat bacon

Kamala Harris has a 3DS and makes her political opponents into Miis
