HIM 👺

Good things are about to happen.

He got it in him like mad. Fantastic casting. This and Ron are my favorites so far.

@ade_lamina @thegabejamie Very true.

@thegabejamie @Debisi_ I think Snape is one of the most complex characters in the show. It's a compliment to any actor to be considered for the role.

Snape being black is so funny to me. I didn’t think they’d actually go through with it. I’m just going to assume race doesn’t exist in the show. It can’t be that the scary skulking teacher that used to be a member of the wizard KKK (etc) is a black man.

Wait these are so gorgeous, omggg.

@Asteriqq I think they did.

they should have stuck to the eyes, too.

Harry en el colegio muggle y cuando le crece el pelo en una noche, es tal cual pasa en el libro 🤧😍

Yes, Erica sucked but Pike sucked harder (atleast she was funny). Pike was so annoying. “wHaTs yOuR pLaN?” Not to ask a person I’ve just started dating to leave her job and move to a new city with me then propose as an afterthought, that’s for sure.

@needonegoalfc Yessss 😂

mashburn gave such good jealous jane content

@Asteriqq Lmfaooooo, it’s not even about the Elf. They’re generational bigots. But race blindness means the entire family can be any race, because race wouldn’t matter. Anyway, they should include more people of color.

@Debisi_ oh also, sirius being black would mean the whole black family is. and remember how crazy their elf was😭? that definitely won't work.

Someone said they should make one of the marauders black for balance (per bullying). And someone asked which one? The werewolf, the rat or the prisoner named Serious Black? Lmfaooooo, you know what? Fairs. Everybody in the story is lowkey problematic. R ace blindness.

@Asteriqq That’s what’s funny to me. Race blindness in theory but race matters in his context. It’s hard to ignore.

@Debisi_ even with the snape race swap, we'd have a group of white boys bullying him as a student😭. there's also how it can push the notion that he and lily couldn't work cos of their race. it's lowk hard to be race blind😂.

@Asteriqq Apart from the fact that JKR has been credited with saying she saw Hermy together but wanted to do something different, it’s obvious from a writing perspective that Hinny simplified the shipping structure. However, you’re right about the movies doing Hinny a disservice.

nahhh, the movies just didn't get the relationship with ginny right.

@Asteriqq Lmfaooooooo, black people can be troublesome too. The optics of them wrongly imprisoning the black man in the friend group is lowkey funny but you know what? Why not.

@Debisi_ the marauders are too troublesome for one of them to be black😭.

@bigbrutha_ Their ideology is rooted in racist ideals i.e race supremacy of (pure blood) wizards above all magical and non-magical beings. The dynamics of muggle-borns, half bloods and pure bloods is alternately tribalism at best. I’m aware of what the Death Eaters were about, not to worry

The wizard’s kkk was basically about pure blooded wizards Not racial wizards

I think it’s going to be the way stage play is; race blindness. Where race doesn’t matter and there’s no such thing as racism. Which kinda works for me tbh. Ngl, I wanted black Dumbledore/McGonagall.

@HoleyGrailo @Nkomehfa But race matters in context hence the third sentence.

@Debisi_ @Nkomehfa Maybe just maybe, stay with me here The one actor that embodied the role in auditions was black and it’s not an intentional race swap

As the solicitor to the family of the late Ochanya, I have been hesitant and very cautious about making public statements regarding this tragic case. However, people have been tagging and reaching out to me for clarifications. @Winifunds has very serious questions to answer regarding what she knows about the circumstances of the death of Miss Ochanya. I have attached certified excerpts from the judgement of the Federal High Court sitting in Makurdi, delivered on 28th April, 2022 in the charge filed by NAPTIP against Mrs. Felicia Ogbuja (Winifred’s mother). Mrs Felicia was convicted and sentenced to five months imprisonment for failing to protect the late Ochanya who was under her care. If you read page 14 of the judgement, you will see that Winifred’s name came up in the course of the proceedings. A witness testified under oath that Winifred caught her brother (Victor Ogbuja), who is still on the run, and reported to their father, Mr. Andrew Ogbuja. Based on what I know, Winifred refused or failed to cooperate with the investigators. She failed to make a statement regarding her role in the case. Efforts by investigators to get to her proved abortive. If she had cooperated, it would have likely had a profound impact on the quest for justice for Ochanya. That is all that I can say at this time.

“This is a sensitive matter that has already gone through legal processes, and I will not be making statements that could misrepresent that process or reopen wounds for those directly affected” is insane. She’s also claiming she didn’t see anything but raised concerns? ??

I didn’t like the Polin book but I think the season swap played a part in how I felt about the season. Because I didn’t like the Kanthony book but I enjoyed their season. Going to rewatch the entire show.

Mashburn scoring the least is very real. Favorite ex.
