It hurts so much, she thought. Our children, Ned, all our sweet babes.

Two applicant profiles were created for a police chief position. One profile was streetwise and one was formally educated. When the streetwise candidate was named Michael and the formally educated candidate was named Michelle, participants tended to choose Michael-and when questioned why, would believe that streetwise characteristics were more important for the job of police chief. But when the streetwise candidate was named Michelle and the formally educated candidate was named Michael, participants would still tend to choose Michael, and would now believe that formal education was more important. This is how we are as humans. Many people who discriminate “feel especially convinced that their selected candidate is the obvious and objective choice.”

“Where did you learn to fight like that?”

“I have three older brothers.”

“Really?”

“Yeah, Wilson played first table on the chess team, Chester used to start crying every time he heard a sad song, Dan can really rock a cocktail dress and six-inch heels, and I wasn’t going to let anyone give them any shit for any of that.  So I had to learn to beat up people bigger than me pretty early on.”

This is my new favourite post. Whenever there’s a female character who fights, it’s always because she’s learned from older male relatives. I’m gonna print this post and put it on my wall bc it gave me new hope for humanity.

don’t pity the dead harry, pity the people who never read the books and don’t understand that sirius was the hottest motherfucker in the series

I love Sirius Black, but let’s be real, part of the reason he was not put in Slytherin is because he lacks cunning and has no chill. Like, if he had been the one to figure out the locket was a horcrux rather than Regulus, he would have sent Voldemort a howler, “I FOUND UR HORCRUX AND I’M GONNA DESTROY IT, I’LL BE THERE IN 20 MIN, ALSO I DRANK THE LAST FRESCA OUT OF THE FRIDGE AT HQ, SO SUCK IT!!!!11111″

February 14th, Valentine’s Day, is about romance. But February 13th, Galentine’s Day, is about celebrating lady friends. It’s wonderful, and it should be a national holiday. It should be a national holiday….
