day 8,794: I love the whole idea of using math to show how, by the end of DH, Voldemort has less than 1% of his own soul in his body (it’s about 0.78% of a soul), and frankly, it could have been great and almost redeemed how he is otherwise one of the most painfully stupid villains ever…… except for how somebody (Joanne) didn’t put it in the books or apparently think of it at all (aside from the, “blah blah, increasingly dehumanized, blah blah, that is why he looks fuck ugly” thing), and instead just let everyone run with the idea that all Tom’s Horcruxes would be equally powerful (which is really glaring in the case of Hermione, because of all the characters on Team Harry, she should have gone, “wait, that does not add up” because she loves logic and math [arithmancy] almost as much as she loves going to the library)
#and now i'm complaining about how much voldemort sucks again#which means it's time to give up on being awake and go sleep until i can pretend to be a functional adult again#mine: hp#mine: shitposting#voldemort is a ding dong#jk rowling is not a gift#harry potter for ts#opinions for ts#criticism for ts#he's just…… so. painfully. STUPID.#like?#WHY WAS DARK LORD THE ONLY CAREER OPTION YOU CONSIDERED TOM#YOU ARE BLATANTLY FUCKING TERRIBLE AT IT WHAT THE HELL#WHY ARE YOU SO UP YOUR OWN ASS THAT YOU NEVER CONSIDERED FAR MORE SINISTER EFFECTIVE OR THEMATICALLY CONSISTENT WAYS OF DOMINATING EVERYONE#ugh i can't with you tom you are horrible like even if you weren't a magical fascist you would be the worst#because you are just SO BAD………………… at everything#ugh self shut up it's okay#he's a better dark lord ​in that cornetto trilogy mashup au that i'm never going to write where he also got adopted#and then both of his moms and both of his dads just collectively ignored it when he hunted down & murdered tom riddle sr. oops#(i mean. um. albus ariana gellert & hepzibah were all too cognizant for 'oops' to actually be a viable anything#—but the fact remains that all of them treated it like 'oh. our son committed premeditated triple homicide & framed his uncle…… maybe let's#just ignore it and pretend that nothing's wrong and remind him that he is brilliant & talented & then he'll never do it again :)'#……yeeeeeeah that worked out other than well. at least most of the rest of lgbtq magical britain is there to oppose him though.)#(also i mean?? harry grew up with parents; a godfather; and two eccentric uncles who loved him instead of abusive garbage people who locked#him in a cupboard under the stairs & he also doesn't have to spend his adolescence constantly being tortured & nearly murdered? yay??)#anyway i'm going to go to bed now#p.s. voldemort sucks and is written terribly like… unforgivably 'jkr you are undermining your own themes & don't even see it' badly
