but then again, its kind like putting a meat suit on and telling a shark not to eat you

We (men) are not fucking sharks!

We are not rabid animals living off of pure instinct

We are capable of rational thinking and understanding. 

Just because someone is cooking food doesn’t mean you’re entitled to eat it. 

Just because a banker is counting money doesn’t mean you’re being given free money.

Just because a person is naked doesn’t mean you’re entitled to fuck them. 

You are not entitled to someone else’s body just because it’s exposed. 

What is so fucking difficult about this concept?

How can you not reblog something like this

This is not circus but is something very Scottish and highly patriotic.

Basically, Glasgow does anti-Trump better than anywhere in the world. If ever there was a reason for Scottish pride. A not-circus post that simply had to be shared. Especially since 99% of my followers are not Scottish and it’s important to share the culture.

Ravenclaws probably have, overall as a house, the worst grades in the school tbh. 

i feel as though ravenclaws would have driven Hermione Granger up a wall they neVER DO THEIR HOMEWORK??? I though this was the smart house???? and Ravenclaws are like yeah kay but GET THIS DID YOU KNOW AN ANIMAGUS – but potions homework – who even CARES about potions right now I’m researching this COOLER THING uncouple the idea of ‘smart’ with the idea of ‘good at school’

I bet for the professors teaching Ravenclaws is like herding cats away from empty boxes.

Older Ravenclaws have finely honed the art of asking just the right argumentative questions to direct their teacher onto an entire-class-session-long tangent about something entirely irrelevant to the course material. 

Can you imagine Ravenclaws trying to overhaul the entire school system with Muggle ideas. Trying to figure out how to best teach people, more concerned with how people learn than what they’re learning.

“Why do we force people to learn things they aren’t interested in, we should create our own curriculum.”

“We should figure out everyone’s learning styles.”

“We need smaller class sizes.”

“No, no, wait, guys, what if we eliminated grades entirely.

Yeah, Ravenclaws would drive Hermione up the wall.

“Fire the whole staff and start over.”

“Present more opportunities for seventh-year independent research!”

“Why hasn’t anyone made magically modified calculators yet?”

“Why are we still using quills and parchment when pencils exist? Please explain.”

“I don’t want to enter the work force directly after school, what are my options for higher education? Is there magical university?”

“I don’t feel confident in my professor’s qualifications because she’s teaching me astrology but doesn’t know any facts about space beyond about the year 1764.”

Muggleborn Ravenclaws forming rogue study groups to teach other students chemistry and algebra and English literature, just imagine. 

“They call this the astronomy tower but we’re learning about the effects of Venus when it’s in the fourth house and the professor doesn’t believe Neptune is a planet I am really concerned.”

“Okay but what’s the oxidation state of Mandrake root in pepperup potion?”

“But can you apply differential calculus to arithmancy or not?“ 

“The portrayal of the witches in Macbeth has some pretty troubling implications, also, I don’t think their potion would have actually done anything.”

I can’t not reblog this holy frick

Protect trans people. We are here and we aren’t going anywhere. We deserve to take up space. We deserve to exist.

To my fellow trans friends, you are valid and you will be okay. Keep fighting for change in any way you can. Don’t give up.

We are here.

We exist.

We will not be erased.

We deserve to be here.

To my fellow trans siblings out there, if what’s going on is affecting you, please know that you deserve to be free to exist and regardless of anything anyone thinks, you are valid. Please if you can, go vote okay? We cannot let them win.

To cis people following me, do not let them erase us! Help us by voting and spreading love and awareness, and support. Help us protect our rights. Help us feel safe.

if your feminism doesn’t include all women, i’m not interested in it 

this goes for trans women, women of color, disabled women, neurodivergent women, nonbinary women, queer women, women in poverty, religious minority women, refugee women, and women in and from other countries. If your feminism starts and stops with women who look, act, and exist in a very restricted category, then it isn’t feminism and you aren’t a feminist.
