Dumbledore has glasses in the books, right? Plus Myrtle. And Rita Skeeter. But I can’t remember if they also had glasses in the movies. Myrtle’s a goddamn ghost, though - your eyesight really carries over to that?

You’re absolutely right. I just signed up on .ml because I was a reddit refugee and it was one of the largest instances, and it got the fastest updates. Like a year later, suddenly everyone’s talking about me like I’m part of some crazy cult. I bet well over half of .ml users don’t even come close to the extreme stereotype, but are considering going to another instance just so we don’t get bullied any more. It’s likely going to be a self-fulfilling prophecy.
This is dumb, but I actually don’t blame the couple THAT much. It’s probably a shitty sexual education coupled with the taboo of talking about it. I went to abstinence-only sex ed back in the day, and all we were told was “sex before marriage is evil,” and basically nothing else. If it wasn’t for my church’s (yeah, seriously!) really good sex-ed classes, I would have been dumb as bricks.
The DARE officer at my school (anti-drug police officer supposed to scare you straight) was actually yelled at by my health teacher for saying “sharing needles can cause STIs, oh and also wear a condom.” A teacher shouted “Abstinence only, no condoms!” at a bunch of ninth-graders. Moron. Although I guess the kids in that class wouldn’t have had trouble getting pregnant.
Before I realized and came out as bi, I was in the GSA (gay-straight alliance) in high school as a “straight.” My state was voting to ban gay marriage at the time, and we campaigned against it. I got just as much if not more hate from people than the LGBT members. Maybe because they viewed them as a lost cause? It was usually adults yelling at a 17-year-old kid for being a “betrayer” and a “pervert lover” (I liked that one), just because I supported two consenting adults marrying regardless of gender. Staunch allies definitely earn the title.
Damn that FDA and their suppression of…*checks list…sunshine?
Was the solar eclipse an inside job?!?
Hoover, to himself: He should see what I wear in private…
Multiattack claws now, tiger power!
Is this done in the style of A Softer World?
Damn you, Kain! This act of genocide is unconscionable!
One of my favorites! She is just so incredible with making you think about concepts.
I finally got me an ostrich! Very cute!
Ah, okay, thanks! I love reading them, but James Marsters is phenomenal on the audio books, so maybe I’ll check that collection out as well.
I’ve been meaning to read Side Jobs - does it finally explain the sasquatch? Gotta do something while I’m waiting for the next book!
I’m currently doing a re-listen to Name of the Wind and catching a lot of references I missed on the first read and first listen.
My man R2-D2. Took no shit from anyone, did what he thought was right, was around from the beginning, and survived practically everything. Plus was a loyal friend to Threepio even when he was acting like an idiot
I loved the SW card game as a kid, but everyone wanted to play Magic instead. I will admit, however, that the rules probably weren’t the greatest. You just played for that 1 game out of 20 where you actually managed to get the right cards out to blow up the Death Star or superlaser a planet, or had a Vader vs. Luke fight.
Also IG-88 had a whole backstory in the EU (now SW Legends) where there were FOUR of him
Carrot in a Box is legendary because of Sean Lock. I watch at least once a month
Yeah, more an aspect of where I’ve lived than everyone. Although I’ve yet to see a farm on the beach, which is what I really want. Drinking fresh milk while you watch the waves…the dream!
Yeah, but having done both, it’s equally weird that people can just…go to the beach? Without making it a whole week trip! But then they can’t just go to a farm for fresh cheese and eggs on a Thursday afternoon?
Walter White really took a different criminal path in this alternate universe
