KIM TAEHYUNG’S BIRTHDAY COUNTDOWN: D-3

@baguettiquette That's true. But if you google curly and bushy hair you can actually see quite a bit of difference between the picture with white and black people in it. There's even a picture of Emma during in The Philosopher's Stone and it looks just frizzy in comparison? But yeah, of course you can have all types of hair! @squeegeeyourthirdeye I have also never seen a black person with blue eyes but I do have an internet connection and the ability to type in any search engine. I would also like to point out that in I never said you had a problem with poc. You are getting defensive for no reason. I also only made one post about this subject, apart from answering you, so I would appreciate you not telling me to get over something that I started talking about ten minutes ago. I am very sorry if the fact that I feel like that the Harry Potter movies could've use more of a diverse cast, especially considering Angelina Jonhson was all but cut off completely and the origibal Lavender Brown was replaced by a white actress, makes you either uncomfortable or guilty, judging by your slightly condescending and defensive reponse (and I also apologize if I'm wrong about that aswell, but I can only form opinions based on the information available to me), but if you do like my stance on tgis subject you are more than welcome to stop interacting with me. We can't always agree with each other. I would also like to say that I have nothing against Emma. I think she did a brilliant job while being so young and inexperienced. I think she has a lot of traits that are very similar to Hermione's, personality wise, and that, as a person, she was probably one of the very best choices to play that character on screen. I'm only pointing out that she doesn't look like the Hermione I picture in my head when I read the books. And the fact that there's probably a lot of little girls out there that read the books and saw the same thing I did, girls that maybe wanted to see themselves represented in the HP universe, probably felt disappointed, that's kund of sad. So, no, I'm not going to "get over it". My cousins are just as deserving of that representation as your sister, except they almost never get that. Oh, and plays are not readily available to the public like movies are, you know. A lot less people have the opportunity to see them. I know my cousins haven't seen it.

For some reason, it never occurred to me that Project Gutenberg would have public domain old cookbooks. This is BRILLIANT. There’s a 1953 cranberry recipe pamphlet and a suffrage cookbook from 1915 and a translation of Apicus’s guide to food in Imperial Rome and a whole bunch of other fascinating old cookbooks, many pre-1800. Treasure trove!

@constantly-nocturnal as a matter of fact, I don't read them! I also don't leave comments in those fics and tell the authors about what I think. I do, however, post what I think on my blog, because, as you said, here I'll write whatever the hell I want no matter how much other people dislike that. If people agree with me, great. If they don't, it's alright.

But then somehow he was back at Winterfell again, in the godswood looking down upon his father. (Bran III, ADWD)

The thought of Jon filled Ned with a sense of shame, and a sorrow too deep for words. (Ned XV, AGOT)

Because even if they considered doing it together, after all they went through together Ron should've believed him. Because after all those years of death defying friendship Harry wouldn't have entered alone if he could. If he was the one who put his name in, he would've dragged Ron with him and if Ron is the type of person that can't see that or would ignore that about his friend then he is not a very good friend in return. I may be forgetting something but I don't recall any instance where Harry ever lied about something like that to Ron and Hermione.

It always pissed me off that Ron didn’t believe Harry didn’t enter himself into the Triwizard Tournament. I mean, this is the guy who defended him from Malfoy in the Express, who fought a troll and smuggled a dragon with him, who shared what he saw in the Mirror of Erised with him, went through the challenges to save the Philosopher’s Stone from Quirrel and that’s just in first year! And that little shit had the gall to turn to him and call him an attention seeking liar and a glory hound? I still can’t believe Harry forgave him. That kid has no self-esteem. If it was me, I would have kick Ron in the balls and refused to even look at him again.

Some advice for dressmakers:

1. Pockets are a thing. 2. Breasts are a thing.

Leave room in your design for both.

Chocolate Coated Caramels

If you are looking for a meaningful , delicious gift for someone close to your heart, this is the best choice !

Ingredients :

Soft caramels - 480g  [ my own recipe will be published separately ; but caramels can be purchased too , not only made at home ]

White chocolate - 300g ( it depends on the type of chocolate, in their melted state, some are runnier , some are thicker . If it is runnier, you will need less chocolate. )

Decorating:

Caramel flakes

Sugar paste

Coconut

Decorating is completely optional.

Instructions :

Boil some water in a pot on medium-low heat and put the bowl with the chocolate on top of it. Keep stirring until all the chocolate melted.

Add the caramels one by one into the chocolate , then use two forks to pick them up , allowing the extra chocolate to drip down the fork’s tines. Place them on wax paper.

Decorate them how you like. I kept mine very simple.

Set them aside to harden and cool , if necessary , refrigerate them.

Cut off the edges in order to give them a better shape.

And there you have it ! The easiest and most delicious treat you could have ever made at home!

Enjoy!

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.

Two nice things about Benedict Cumberbatch: 

1) he has pretty eyes;

2) he has a nice voice.

oh, yes, preach, that man was horrible. just hiring snape is a reason to hate him. and the douche did way more than that

Why is there so many Dumbledore apologists in this website?
