A thing that bothers me about wizard schools in popular media – outside of the magic-grade-school stuff, anyway – is that they're typically depicted as being basically magic universities, but their actual curricula and pedagogical approaches look much more like those of a technical institution. Like, buddy, that's not a wizard university, that's a wizard trade school. You can't just slap university student culture on top of trade school pedagogy. It doesn't work like that – the one emerges from the other!

I have the feeling I'm gonna see this post all over the place in my immediate future and I think a lot of the comments that are already on it are going to be about The Rich but I think the most unsettling thing about it is that any of us can be the kind of person it describes, if only on a smaller scale--and on a societal scale those of us living in the developed world almost certainly are. In a lot of modern takes on the morality play the implicit original sin is being a citizen of the capitalist west with all the knock-on effects that entails. How can you ever even come close to unbalancing those scales? I am myself indifferent honest, but yet I could accuse myself of such things that it were better my mother had not borne me.
(I also don't think the answer is "overthrow society and burn it all down to fix the systemic evils at work in virtually everything we do" so idk, maybe that's part of my own particular evil?)

14 and 19 please!
14. that one thing you see in fics all the time this is a personal stylistic preference, rather than a inviolable rule laid down by god, but if i open a fic and see "the Monégasque" or "the taller man" or w/e i am probably closing that tab, it just grates at my brain.
i will also take this opportunity to note that the adjective form of the adverb "gingerly" is in fact "gingerly":)) "He laid a ginger hand--" no he didn't, not unless he'd just been cooking
19. you're mad/ashamed/horrified you actually kind of like... answered here!

I made a joke about Royal Affairs characters as dogs, told myself I would not spend hours working out what character would be what dog, and now I cannot stop thinking about it

it seemed that searching three words allows you to find all posts containing those three words
with two words, it seemed that both words have to be in tags, or else it doesn't work. maybe unless the post is popular
but what if i write a really long tag? the maximum limit is 139 characters per tag
i did this experiment in this post
i concluded that if your search contains common words, for example "what write really", it only retrieves certain posts where those words are in the text
for uncommon/nonexisting words in the text of your post such as "brasput yabet mituarb", you can find your post by searching just 1 word
for two words in any of the tags, it retrieves the post, even if the words are common. for example "eat above"

Hey proko, with the fairy vs walrus debate going on, did you forget extremely portable baby walruses exist? That seems kind of an oversight for the tax law loophole guy of tumblr.
If you're allowed to go "what if the walrus is a baby", I'm allowed to go "what if the fairy is just a guy with no obviously supernatural attributes", and we're right back where we started. This is one of those scenarios where sophistry perfectly cancels itself out unless you arbitrarily stipulate that only one side is allowed to engage in it.

I've seen more than one "at least Pat Robertson was sincere in his beliefs" takes and every time I just about white out with rage.
Like OK! I'm not even sure that's true, because damn did that little worm have some scams going, but ASSUMING that he sincerely wanted me dead, that doesn't actually seem much better than just thinking my life is expendable for power! Those both actually seem pretty motherfucking bad, guy!
Oh, he ONLY hated my joy and love with every fiber of his being. So much better than using his outsize cultural cachet to agitate for genocide cynically!
