I like pretty things, vintage things, political things, animated things, British things, flippy things, fiendiesh thingies and things that are funny, interesting, speak the truth, or simply manage to catch my very short attention span.
Hope you like some of these things too. :)

You know what I’m grateful for? That they never made movie covers for the Harry Potter books. Can we all just take a moment to appreciate that?
Can we all please take a moment to appreciate Hagrid here? Seriously, everyone always talks about how Harry has no father figure and how terrible it was for Sirius to die because now Harry’s all alone (dont get me wrong, Sirius is my favorite character) but honestly, Hagrid is the best father Harry ever had. He did so much for him, and no one, sometimes not even Harry realizes that. Hagrid gets no where near the mount of credit he deserves. Take a minute and try to imagine where Harry would be with out him and you’ll understand what im talking about.
I think JKR said it was really important to her that Hagrid carried him out of the forest, because he carried him to safety when he was a baby. Hagrid has been there since the beginning, and he was also there at the culmination of Harry’s journey. He’s always cared SO MUCH and been really open with Harry for the most part, which is something Harry needs since people tend to keep secrets from him. Yeah, he’s irresponsible with the monsters, but all of Harry’s father figures were pretty irresponisble, and Hagrid was definitely like, the most solid and reliable out of all of them. And he never left.
im crying
Hagrid was also most like a parent in his correction of Harry. For Sirius and Molly, Harry could do no wrong. Dumbledore saw Harry’s flaws, but he depended on them for his own plans to work.
But Hagrid saw Harry for exactly who he was, good and bad. He was the first to publicly defend Harry’s innocence anytime he got blamed for something he didn’t do; but he was also the first to call Harry out on his treatment of Hermione in PoA. He is consistently honest and forthright in addressing Harry’s behaviour and choices, and always acts in the way he believes will be best for Harry’s growth and especially for his moral development.
Harry is the man he is because of Hagrid. No one else did that for him.
Awesome point, awesome awesome.
So JK Rowling started a foundation dedicated to ending the institutionalization of children worldwide.
Just to be clear, your faves have never.
OMG. J.K. Rowling, why are you so perfect?
I like the chart about why children are institutionalized.
And how it acknowledges disability.
Four for you, Rowling.
You go, Rowling.
YEEEEESSSSSSSSSS
And I love that it is called Lumos!
if Fred & George had the map for years, how did they not notice that there was a man named Peter sleeping in Ron’s bed every night.
or did they just not want to ask or
OH. MY. GOD.
