Pet peeve time: for the contingent out there who sneer at heroes like Superman and Wonder Woman and Captain America, those icons who still, at their core, represent selfless sacrifice for the greater good, and who justify their contempt by saying, oh, it’s so unrealistic, no one would ever be so noble… grow up. Seriously. Cynicism is not maturity, do not mistake the one for the other. If you truly cannot accept a story where someone does the right thing because it’s the right thing to do, that says far more about who you are than these characters.

poc!potter makes so much sense though

think about it: petunia and vernon /hated/ james potter, made up stories about him “probably being unemployed” and they seemed to thoroughly dislike him for more than just the magic. how much d’you wanna bet me that their prejudice may have been on the racist side? they treated harry pretty awfully, even considering his magic. they hated that he looked like james as well.

plus, harry has “great skin” but no specified skin colour or tone or anything!

draw and write about east asian harry, south asian harry, black harry. draw harry potter in every single race there is.

poc!potter is not really a racebend bc it’s all within canon

like, aunt marge has no idea about magic or anything and she clearly hates harry, and seems to be able to make generalisations about ‘harry’s lot’ despite never having met his parents and not knowing anything about them.

it would make more sense as to why people keep commenting on him having his mother’s eyes and dark skin and green eyes are a rarer combination than light skin and green eyes.

harry’s grandad made the family rich by inventing a potion that straighten’s hair, the one hermione uses in book 4, that’s a product way more likely to be used by poc, especially black poc like hermione, and so is more likely to come from a poc who noticed the demand in the market as it was relevant to them,

it would explain why no muggle ever investigated harry, why his teachers and other adults were content to let him be bullied and abused, because the area where he grew up is clearly very right wing, (voted tory/ bnp likes the EDL kind of place) so a mixed race kid is way more likely to be ignored.

it also add’s an extra dimension to Harry’s love for the wizarding world, the way he overlooks a lot of it’s flaws, because not only is it the first place he is loved but it’s also the first place he doesn’t have to deal with racism (at first at least)

50.

What is the most unusual conversation you’ve ever had?

okay EVER is a hard one because I have a lot of unusual hobbies so like I’ve spent an hour arguing about the Tudor family tree circa 1565 or whatever but TODAY my dad and I discussed the Salvation Army and apparently when he was a wee lad he’d go to camp and there was a camp song about the Salvation Army containing the phrase “throw a nickel in the drum, save another drunken bum” and it was all dirty jokes about the Salvation Army and???? what the fuck?????

64.

What do you think about babies?

i love them they’re useless and annoying i want a million and i want to dress them in adorable little outfits and spam social media with pictures of them and wake up in the dead of night afraid that my parenting was going to fuck them up
