thinking about that toni morrison quote that went to the effect of ‘you’re looking in your children’s face to make sure their face is clean and their hair is combed and they’re looking in your face to see love.’ because it’s saur true.

When he found that the administrators were upset, he laughed.

"Do they expect students not to be anarchists?" he said. "What else can the young be? When you are on the bottom, you must organize from the bottom up."

If you see someone with a really bad fandom take, I’m begging you to open your emails and write a strongly worded missive to your local government official about something bad happening in your community or country.

If you’re in Canada you could email a rep about concerns about Elon musk interfering in our next federal election.

If you’re in the US the list is endless.

If you’re in the UK you could email about trans health care.

If you’re in Australia, what about dental care in Medicare?

If you’re in Europe, look into some EU initiatives of particular concern. Perhaps something to do with nature and biodiversity? Idk

Just today I emailed my local mla about coal mining in the Rocky Mountains and tomorrow I’m going to pick something else and do it again

No Way

My brain won’t shut the fuCK UP so if it won’t let me sleep I’m making it write.

Harry blinks. He holds the magazine closer to his face, inches from his glasses, to get a closer look at the smirking shirtless man featured on the cover of Witch Weekly’s Quidditch Cuties issue.

Because there’s absolutely no fucking way. No way that Draco Malfoy, Seeker for the Abbleby Arrows and frequent star of Harry’s sex dreams, has a lightning bolt tattooed over his heart.

It’s not—it’s not possible.

And yet.

Harry makes decision. He folds the magazine, puts it in his pocket, grabs his wand, and Apparates away with a crack.

There’s only one way to find out.

“Describe the details people usually skip over: the drape of a blanket over skin, the small changes in breathing. Sex is an immediate physical experience and you should always ground the characters firmly in the moment. Rather than saying how something makes a character feel emotionally, describe what they’re feeling physically and let emotions filter down in between. A reaction gives away more information than an action does. Is there a winner, or a loser, or do they share the throne? Sex is a conversation expressed in physical details.”

My wife and I have a little game we play called "Speaking From Ignorance."

To play Speaking From Ignorance, all you need is a phone with a voice recorder, and another person who knows considerably more or considerably less about a topic than you do. The topic can be anything: from "how to bake a quiche" to "what happens in the Peter Jackson Hobbit movies" to "who is Florence Pugh" to "how does the traveling salesman problem work." All that matters is that one of you has a firm grasp on the material, and one of you absolutely the fuck does not.

Then the person who knows about the topic turns on the recorder, and says to the person who knows barely anything: "Hey - tell me everything you think you know about [X]."

The speaker is then not allowed to ask any questions. Nor is the expert allowed to volunteer any information. The expert is allowed to pipe up with a faintly incredulous "Oh--really? Do you--do you think so?" from time to time, but for the most part, the expert's job is just to sit there and make encouraging sounds while the speaker digs their own grave.

This is never not funny.

The reason you record it is because, very often, the first thing the speaker wants to do after finishing the recording is find out how you actually make a quiche, or whatever. Then you both get to go back and listen to how wrong they were.

We have a small library now of Speaking From Ignorance recordings, and I'm going to be listening to them until I'm eighty.
