I hate the “houseelves are a metaphor for British housewives you just don’t understand because you’re a dumb american” thing so much it makes me want to break things.

Even if we ignore the fact that the narrative of HP uses arguments actual slaveowners did to justify themselves, the metaphor would be shitty, at best choice feminism, at worst endorsement of the statue quo disguised as wanting to support women(very in character for jk rowling btw).

British women aren’t a special kind of women whose decisions aren’t influenced by being subconsciously told a devoted wife and mother is the best thing a woman can be from early childhood omg.

Art Hacks for Physical Disabilities!!

I know art can be inaccessible to physically disabled people for a lot of reasons, and I think art should be accessible to everyone, so here’s a couple of the things I found to help for a few different issues you may face that stop you participating!

I have a link to all these items (UK) in my link tree!!

End of ID.

what do you mean elon musk did a nazi salute on live tv at the united states presidential inauguration twice and is now erasing the evidence off the internet by replacing the footage with the crowd cheering instead?

would be a shame if people reblogged this, wouldn’t it?

What if we just pretended Drix was a woman. What if we referred to Drix as She/Her. Every time Drix is onscreen we perceive them as a female character with a masculine voice (if the voice is even masculine). Every time Drix is referred to as male we just ignore it. If you go to this fandom everyone discusses Drix as a female character and we edit the Ninjago wiki. What if we just collectively gaslit ourselves and everyone around us to the point where even Doc Wyatt gets confused and female Drix becomes canon.

Lin still really needs to be set free from the actual mess he is in, my man did NOT sign up for any of this. I mean like literally he did but that's besides the point. How was dude supposed to know about Nice's boyfriend bestfriend?
