It’ll be great for your career, he said. Bollocks.” Helena, finding herself at a spectacular impasse on her latest novel, decides a change of scenery should help her finish the nightmare of a book she reluctantly agreed to write. Myka has been contentedly living the laid back life of a bookstore owner on the Big Island of Hawaii. Perhaps a little romance is what is missing from Helena's romance novel.

I was thinking about Harry Potter today. A lot has been said, and rightly so, about anti-semitism and anti-queerness and slavery and a lot of other problematic issues. So I want to mention something a little different: the fact that the magical community literally created their own enemy, through a series of choices made over generations and by virtually every British witch and wizard.

"There's not a single witch or wizard who went bad who wasn't in Slytherin," Ron tells us. Maybe he's exaggerating, but certainly most of the nastier ones seem to be Slytherins, including the Big V-Man himself. And why does such a thing as a "Slytherin" exist? Because the entire British magical community continues to endorse the practice of letting an old hat choose one quarter of their kids to be radicalised.

If I was looking at schooling options for my kids, and one of the choices was to send them to a school which provides a safe and nurturing environment for neo-nazis, I would simply choose something else. Homeschooling, establishing a new school, writing a stern letter to the principal, moving literally anywhere else.

But the witches and wizards of Rowling's world are happy to accept the inevitability that either their kid will become the magical equivalent of Andrew Tate, or will have a great deal of close contact with lots of mini-Tates.

Over hundreds of years and many generations, Slytherin house has provided children who have those tendencies (remember, the Sorting Hat sees a child's potential and places them in the house that will nurture them!) with like-minded peers and authority figures. They are in an echo chamber. There's no intervention, nobody's going "Oh, this is problematic, let's try to help these kids be better, to think more critically, maybe little Johnny Magicpants could be a valuable member of society if we feed him some David Attenborough instead of Tucker Carlson."

They did this to themselves.

I threw together a truncated Lashton timeline, going by albums. (This is different from a full timeline I’ve been working on continuously, but still gives a good overview.)

Is this something anyone is interested in me posting?

"Children of Men" (2006)

countries will be like “nooooo our birth rate is falling exponentially and it’s effecting our economy” and immigrants will be like “hey can you let us in so we can boost your economy and fill your empty jobs and raise our children here” and inevitably the country is like “the only thing worse than a large scale collapse of our population is letting foreigners live here”
