Caradoc Dearborn "canon" House

A friend sent me this screenshot the other day, I don't have Twitter (X) and I had never seen this.

What do you think? Do we consider the author's tweets canonical? Can we say that Caradoc was Slytherin in canon? (Can I scream with joy?)

ways enya and JK Rowling are dissimilar: enya minds her own business and doesn’t spend her time spreading hatred among the masses also enya is Irish and Jo Rowling is from terf island aka England. also enya is actually good at creating works of art

America Ferrera FUCKING KILLED THIS MONOLOGUE GIVE HER ALL THE AWARDS!!!

“It’s literally impossible to be a woman.

You are so beautiful, and so smart, and it kills me that you don't think you're good enough. Like, we have to always be extraordinary, but somehow, we're always doing it wrong?

You have to be thin, but not too thin, and you can never say you wanna be thin. You have to say you wanna be healthy, but also, you have to BE THIN.

You have to have money, but you can't ask for money because that's crass.

You have to be a boss, but you can't be mean.

You have to lead, but you can't squash other people's ideas.

You're supposed to love being a mother, but don't talk about your kids all the damn time.

You have to be a career woman, but also, always be looking out for other people.

You have to answer for men's bad behavior, which is INSANE, but if you point that out, you're accused of complaining!

You're supposed to stay pretty for men, but not so pretty that you tempt them too much or that you threaten other women because you're supposed to be a part of the sisterhood, but ALWAYS STAND OUT and ALWAYS BE GRATEFUL. But never forget that the system is rigged, so find a way to acknowledge that but ALSO, always be grateful!

You have to never get old. Never be rude. Never show off. Never be selfish. Never fall down. Never fail. Never show fear. Never get OUT OF LINE. It's too hard! It's too contradictory, and nobody gives you a medal or says 'thank you!' And it turns out, in fact, that not only are you doing everything wrong, but also, everything is your fault.

I'm just so tired of watching myself, and every single other woman tie herself into knots, so that people will like us.

And if all of that, is also true for a doll just representing a woman, then I don't even know." -Gloria the barbie movie

this is it. this is exactly it oh my god.

Oh no! I think two characters who clearly hate each other have a parent/child or mentor/mentee relationship even though they have both never been anything but horrible towards each other… what a catastrophe.

I'm traveling to Italy this summer for a study abroad program and I needed a new passport book thing because my old Ravenclaw ™️ one I got in middle school has aged as badly as jk rowling. I've only used it once and it's been sitting in my sock drawer for years and it's literally falling apart.

as a woman, i claim the right to identify my own threats

"Do not pity the dead, Harry. Pity the living and, above all, those who live without love" is such a fucking raw line. Miss Rowling obliterated Emil Cioran Soren Kierkegaard and Jean-Paul Sartre with it. All those male pessimist or existentialist philosophers who are worshipped in academia because they jerked off in their bourgeois appartment saying life sucks are made to make you feel bleak. But the way JKRowling talks about life, death, grief and love, which are the main themes in all of her main books (Harry Potter, The Casual Vacancy, Cormoran Strike) is so human and moving and comforting, but of course, because she is a children book writer and, even more awful, a "TERF bitch", she isn't heralded the same way male philosophers are. There's a reason so many people find solace in Harry Potter, it's because it doesn't shelter you from the awfulness of death while, at the same time, it brings you an optimist perspective on life and offers positive values. As such, JKRowling's philosophy is counter cultural in that it challenges the existentialist worldview that has been embraced by the arts and academia. In this essay, I will-

Perhaps it's time for the semi-regular reminder not to support JKRowling due to her being a terf and a Holocaust denier (see recent posts where she claims trans people were not targeted by Nazis) and several other things I'm sure I'm forgetting. Supporting her includes: buying her books, pirating her books, consuming anything that has her name attached to it. Your desire to relive childhood nostalgia should not win out over queer people's desire AND RIGHT to live their lives without fear.

She is still alive and she is using her platform to boost and fund organizations that want to erase queer people from the world.
