Things My Impossibly Young Looking Roman History Lecturer Has Said

Who was the Potter cat?

So we all know the Potters had a cat, right?

All we have per descriptions of this cat is that 1. It was enough of a Potter to make the list when they went into hiding and 2. Harry scared it with his new broom he got from Sirius.

There is further no mention of said cat.

On the other hand, don’t we know another, really old, beaten down, ugly, sad, sad cat?

A cat that befriended Sirius Black and seemed to KNOW Peter Pettigrew’s smell, hold a grudge against him, even?

Part-kneazle, so it has a remarkable ability for finding things that are shiny and that it has a connection to, like, say, a family member.

A cat that knows it’s way around Hogwarts, around the Whomping Willow, almost like it had been there before with another owner.

A cat that absolutely REFUSED to let Hermione leave that shop without him after seeing a certain rat, was CRAZED, almost.

We have no mention of this cat/kneazle’s age, except that it had been in the shop for a while and no one had wanted it. Magical creatures live a long time. Cats live a long time. It’s within reason that this cat could be 30, even 40 years old.

It makes too much sense.

The Potter cat is Crookshanks.

Recipes from Portland's famous but long-closed Rheinlander restaurant. This cookbook was produced in a limited window before Chef Mager's death. All of these fucking slap.

All I'm seeing today is a different version of "if you don't personally get down to fight in this very mortal battle, not being a fighter at all and with no experience, you're a coward, you cowardly chicken you" and I don't get it. That's a really strong word. Surely if he was a coward, he wouldn't have set foot in an island with no easy means of escape (again, an ISLAND), a considerably smaller army and basically no claim to a rock in Wales, let alone the goddamn THRONE, to face a man who was everything he was not in the worse way possible (for Henry), to fight a battle everyone probably assumed he was gonna lose? Let's be real, that takes balls.

Wait. Philippa Gregory realeased how many books while I was busy not giving a shit?

Dear Netflix, why do you care if I use VPN? I’m still paying for it. I just want to watch Poldark in peace.

Sometimes I think people just can't get more delusional... Then I read fanfiction that has a magical portrait of James and Lily saying they trust Snape and I realize how wrong I was.

I trash talked Reign so much that now I’m sad it’s over. Even if it made no sense.
