Remus Lupin: Sirius you did what.
Inspired by this post and others by lotstradamus
the nerd i reblogged this from has a quality blog & i recommend you all follow them.
imagine: remus lupin, after the events of prisoner of azkaban, silently going up to dumbledore’s office, and throwing a frickin tantrum. “you told me not to pursue it! you told me he was guilty!”
“i did not know,” answers dumbledore, “no more than you did, remus.”
“I - DID - KNOW! I TOLD YOU! I TOLD YOU HE WAS INNOCENT AND YOU TOLD ME TO LET IT GO! you - i - TWELVE YEARS HE ROTTED IN THAT CELL! TWELVE YEARS, AND YOU DID NOTHING! you - you………”
he draws himself up, stops shaking, and takes a deep breath.
“i quit,” he says bluntly, then turns and walks away.
It depends, if you do it at home and don’t use expensive dye, I’ve heard it’s actually pretty cheap. I'm not really an expert, though, thanks to the aforementioned uniform code.
How should I get my hair cut? send me suggestions!
(I’m not getting it because it’s her style, just because I like it.)(Not that there’s anything wrong with getting your hair cut specifically to look like a celebrity.)
How should I get my hair cut? send me suggestions!
I suggest the Jennifer Lawrence pixie cut -- it’s what I’m getting tomorrow, so we’ll match! Also, dye it blue if your dress code allows it because blue hair is cool (although unfortunately out of uniform.)

I have read both Order of the Stick and As the Crow Flies and they are fantastic.
Webcomics w/ Black Leads
I was wondering how many webcomics there were out there with black protagonists (for my own reference). Then I figured plenty of other folks would love to see a list. So heeeeere we go! (Please reblog and add more!)

its so weird how ur gender supposedly dictates which shapes and textures of fuckening cloth u are permitted to drape over ur flesh prison
Watch: Bernie Sanders delivered a stirring speech at religious school Liberty University about reaching across the ideological aisle.
“Cis and straight people can do as much propaganda as they want about cisness and heterosexuality, but as soon as we try to give the choice to children, they call it ‘brainwashing’.”

The Fandom That Lived
Okay, muggleborn headcannons are adorable. But can we take a moment to appreciate their poor parents?
Desperately trying to find a book about how to raise your kid who is all of a sudden a witch/wizard.
Trying to explain to the neighbors why your kid suddenly has an owl/toad for a pet and spends an excessive amount of time polishing that ancient broom out on the back porch.
Debating if it’s better to try and wash robes in the sink or just risk taking them to the laundromat.
Having to clean out their trunks when they get home from school because Merlin knows what the hell you will find in there.
Trying to keep any younger siblings from telling random strangers on the street that their big brother/sister is a wizard/witch.
Showing up to Diagon Alley for the first time and holy shit what the hell is all of this honey please make a friend with witch/wizard parents so they can tell us what to do.
Galleons? Knuts?
WHY IS YOUR TEXTBOOK TRYING TO ATTACK ME?!
Trying to explain to grandparents/aunts/uncles/cousins why they can’t attend visitors day at the child’s new boarding school.
Having to come up with a whole new system of rules to deal with anything magical.
Standing awkwardly outside platform 9 ¾ and waiting for another wizarding family to show them what to do.
Learning that the main wizard sport, which your child is determined to participate in, involves riding around on a thin little stick a hundred or more feet in the air while moving at excessive speeds.
Getting letters from your kid after their first night demanding you come pick them up because there is no wifi and THEY SAID IF WE WENT TO THE FOURTH FLOOR WE WOULD DIE.
Seriously. Muggle Parents of Witches/Wizards are adorable. I just have this picture of them rushing out to Diagon Alley after the representative from whatever school visits them to tell them about their kid and they just buy every book they can get their hands on to figure out what the hell they’re supposed to do now.
*transgender but otherwise this is a nice list. Off the top of my head, I can also add Fires of the Faithful/ Turning the Storm to the fantasy section -- it’s mostly a fantasy novel, but it has two very prominent lesbian characters.
This is a list I made for YALSA’s The Hub on the wide range of YA literature featuring LGBTQ characters. See the full post and a downloadable pdf here.
Alien Invasion?
Here’s a different take on the alien invasion trope:
The world is going to shit: overpopulation, deforestation, pollution, global warming, everything. The only question is if we’ll kill ourselves off before we kill the planet out from under us. Then one day ships appear in the skies all over the world- not just America and countries with trendy landmarks, but EVERYWHERE. Efforts are made to stop the “attackers” but humanity is still rounded up and carted off to some strange alien facility.
Food (of a sort) and shelter are provided, but no answers are forthcoming because humanity’s captors don’t bother talking to us. Maybe select individuals are taken off for testing, but they all come back in more or less the same condition they were found, except maybe with immuno-boosters or a few troubling terminal diseases cleared up. There’s massive speculation about what’s going on and probably religions are formed based on various beliefs about what the aliens are doing with us, but no one knows for sure.
This goes on for years (or longer) and then one day everyone is rounded up again and taken back to Earth. Everything is exactly how we left it (except maybe dustier and overgrown) except now there’s no pollution, the ice caps have been repaired, global temps stabilized, ozone holes patched, everything. There are more forests, more crops, and maybe a few critical species (like bees) have been given a population boost. There probably isn’t a lot of thought to where people get dumped so a lot of folks end up in the wrong countries and whatnot, but eventually we sort ourselves back out and either make our way back home or settle down where we are. In a world that’s a little better than the one we left.
And that’s how humanity finds out they’re just an alien terrarium and the owners have stopped by to clean the tank.
567. To make a horcrux, you have to give up one part of your body. That's why Voldemort doesn't have a nose.
Grover: What is going on with you two?
Percy: Come on, Underwood, not this again.
Grover: You gotta admit there’s a spark.
Percy: How many times do I have to say it? She’s like a sister.
Grover: That’s what Luke said about Leia.
Percy: HEY, LUKE DIDN’T KNOW! NOBODY KNEW!

“Yes, Captain America has LEGS!”
(Trigger Warning: rape) Well, I couldn’t find any statistics on what percent of interactions in which a woman turns down sexual advances by a man end in violence. However, I did find a study on what percent of men are rapists. (http://www.davidlisak.com/wp-content/uploads/pdf/RepeatRapeinUndetectedRapists.pdf) It found that (roughly) 6.3% of men have raped or attempted to rape someone. The majority of those had done so more than once, and averaged 5.8 times. The rapists had also committed an average of roughly 10 “acts of interpersonal violence, including rape, battery, and child physical and sexual abuse.” 6.3% might not seem like a lot, but it’s definitely enough to justify trust issues.
too true.
My teachers have literally had to ask the class for help opening a new tab. She also screwed up a Google search and accidentally showed us breasts.
why do teachers not know how to work computers

Reblog if you're not straight
baby ginny sitting herself down in professor lupin’s office hours with her eyebrows furrowed and lupin’s like “shit” bc ginny is an excellent student and very observant and contrary and less likely to take shit than even hermione granger and is rather reminiscent of other red-haired gryffindor women he has known
“i know you’re a werewolf,” she blurts
“oh?” he says though he is thinking shit shit shit shit shit
“yes, and I don’t care,” she says forcefully
“oh?” he says again, though he is carefully not feeling anything
“yeah, I know what it’s like to be possessed by something evil. it doesn’t make you evil,” she says
