j.k.r. needs like one close friend to sit her down and go: β€œokay, but, go over this with me again. you decided the evil snake your dark wizard kept as a pet and vessel of his fragmented horrific soul – the one that has to be murdered in order to defeat the evil wizard – is in fact….an asian woman who was cursed to eventually become a beast and monster in her own body. am i getting this right? the asian woman turns into a snake because her bloodline is cursed and then she becomes the pet of a white supremacist with magic. you invented a body curse specificallyΒ for turning women into monsters and your first thought was not like, subversion of fairy tale misogyny but….to add a layer of racism? just trying to understand here.” 

accio-shitpost:

actually thinking about the time turner anyone else think it’s weird that, depending on how much she used it, hermione might be a good few months older than she should be?

hermione is actually 30 by the end of prisoner of azkaban, it just wasn’t relevant to harry’s story

It baffles and infuriates me that Hogwarts students don’t take Latin or Greek. Accio? Literally β€œI summon.” Lumos? FuckingΒ β€œlight.” Expelliarmus? Expel weapon!!Β Ooooh I wonder what Levicorpus does– you Dumb Ass Bastard. You ILLITERATE. It’s called Levicorpus, it lifts someone’s body, it LEVIES your goddamn CORPUS-

Counterpoint: Hogwarts actively discourages students from taking Latin or Greek because if they knew either one every single magic twelve year old would be trying to mash up twenty words and make their own Ultimate Spell instead of using the Good Standardized Spells Known Not To Explode Magic SchoolsΒ 

I have a feeling that last point is aimed at the ravenclaws…

okay but neville longbottom as head of gryffindor house and there’s all these stories of him going head to head with an army of werewolves, being tortured by death eaters and killing Voldemort’s snake with godric gryffindor’s actual sword but when the students see him he’s like cradling a pot plant and crying cause he saw someone lost their pet on the noticeboard and they’re likeΒ β€œthat guy? are you sure it’s that guy” 

BONUS: one of the older student’s get dared to go up and ask him if it’s true and neville just makes direct eye-contact and saysΒ β€œvoldemort was a punk bitch” and continues knitting a lil baby sweater for a mandrake
