the fact that reboots used to be like thirty or forty years apart and are now instead like 3-10 years apart is absolutely ridiculous. like are we so trapped in a capitalist hellscape that instead of us naturally cherishing a beloved piece of media like it deserves and looking forward to NEW stories with NEW universes we have to watch the same thing over and over and over again with reboot after reboot after reboot until that media has been so sucked dry that us as an audience are literally sick at the mere mention of it

kind of annoyed seeing other trans folk going “well I’m trans and I say the game is fine, so it’s okay!”

our opinions as trans folk do not matter as much here. yes it’s related to jkr, most famous terf on the planet, but this is not our game to “excuse” when the main problem the game has is the fact it’s basically Antisemitism Simulator with Magic

what we should be doing is lifting up the voices of those who are genuinely effected by this dog shit game rather than trying to excuse it when it is not our battle right now. giving the game a pass as a trans person is basically shitting all over jewish people who are trying to get people to understand how harmful and disgusting this game is

there is no excuse. don’t buy it, don’t pirate it, don’t play it, don’t watch it

marauders doodles :]

What is with hArrh potter and its ability to cause artistic stagnation?

Context: currently on 10 mg thc, saw a trailer for Wonka today at the movies and thinking about how shit it looks.

Like. It was jhst barry potter again. The vfx made it clear it was 90% animated, and they did the big stupid fwooshy movements all the time, everyone had the posh tv British accent, there was unexamined perpetuation of racist tropes, the aethetics are vaguely steampunk pop victorian/dickensian, everyones costumes look like shit and made of velvet, so pretty much the only visual difference was that they didn't have any wands.

And then they showed in the trailer that one of the guys making it worked on harry potter like it was a draw. Like one: yeah we could tell. Two: that's not really the draw that it once was. Like i and every trans person i know actively avoids pretty much everything even tangentally relates to jk rowling.

Also it just looked bad.

Hi, having been on the Hogwarts Legacy server, I can say with certainty that many messages in the server violate Discord’s TOS. The blatant use of hate speech and discriminatory moderation behavior puts children who are not aware of the harmful nature of the game into risk, and thus I believe that it would be important for people to report the server using this form:

It’s really really really really really fucking funny that hogwarts legacy looks so bad. this is what people going out of their way to justify to author’s racism/transphobia/anti semitism into defending buying/pirating.

Edit: Even if it somehow gets an emmy grammy tony oscar it’s still bigoted and still not worth harming trans and jewish people over. If you say x gave it a 10/10 you’re trying to justify stepping on trans people for your own personal nostalgia.

please share more of your mauraders fandom thoughts in detail, it's always been such a crazy fandom to me ober the years considering their source material is basically nonexistent and how they act like certain fanfics are actually canon (and also especially how they excuse stanning it these days even with jkr's rampant bigotry)

its just so funny to me idk. theyve invented a canon for themselves despite it all being fanon so of course the canon is boring as hell. no social analysis at all and in fact there's a lot of woobifying death eaters as if all of them are just being forced into it by abusive fathers and not people making deliberate political choices based yes, on childhood indoctrination, but theyre also like. Adults. occasionally comes across as very like, 'wir haben es nicht gewußt'. if peter pettigrew was a twink they would love him but cos he's fat he becomes the bumbling fourth or just ignored or replaced with regulus (very funny). all the female characters are either BAMF feminist or nice kind sweet special baby. lily marlene tend to be the former, mary alice sometimes pandora tend to be the latter. they make up boring femslash in order to feel less guilty about only shipping the twinky boys cos theyre still in that 2017 era of "feminism is having the shafted female love interest become the sassy lesbian best friend". wolfstar forever tho

sometimes i think about the time years ago i posted a dramione edit on here and made it all angsty looking and serious but i decided to put a quote from spongebob in it just to see if anyone would notice and people were reblogging it and saying it was so beautiful and deep and that was peak comedy for me at the time

Begging an LGBTQ to do another first sometime soon so I can stop looking at these last two entries on the Wikipedia page for 2023 in LGBT firsts

My Harry Potter loving roommate has decided to have a Harry Potter movie night with her Harry Potter loving friends. And I’m just hiding in my room being trans and wondering when the kitchen will be free so I can eat dinner :)

I wish I had friends nearby that liked jojo because then I could have a jojo watching night with them and my roommate can quiver in fear of Bruno buccellati and his team of dumbasses

I know you are all watching jojo with me in spirit
