What this means is, that ever single one of the following
Jack Be Nimble (who jumped over burning candles for fun)
Jack the Giant Killer (who sold his cows for magic beans then robbed and killed a giant)
Stingy Jack (who tricked the devil so many times he was banned from both afterlives)
Jack of Jack and Jill (who splattered his head open falling down a hill)
Jack o’ Lantern (the headless horseman spirit of halloween)
Jack Frost (the spirit who heralds the end of autumn and the start of winter)
Are literally the same jackass who made so many bad life choices he ended up an immortal ice dullahan with a pumpkin serving as both his head and flashlight
but what an incredible journey he had getting there
I have a headcanon that Hermione insists her children attend some primary muggle schooling before Hogwarts, just as she had done. Now, imagine Arthur Weasley attending his grandchild’s science fair, being the ultra proud grandfather….and yet also completely geeking out over absolutely EVERYTHING.

“That is a volcano, that is a VERY SMALL VOLCANO, how – young lady, how did you make this? Baking soda and food coloring? MARVELOUS!”
My mom and I went to the grocery store and as we were checking out, an old woman in a pink bathrobe, dirty nightgown, and dirty pink slippers who seemed to have difficulty standing up straight came in and started yelling at the cashier. The cashier rolled her eyes in a “not this again” way and just started clicking like a chicken at the woman. The woman was so confused she stopped, stood up straight, and walked outside the store but just all the while she silently stared at the cashier through the store’s front windows.
When my mom and I finished paying and went outside, the woman saw us, yelled incoherently, and threw one of her slippers at my mom so hard that my mom fell. I checked on my mom and when I turned around, SWAT was surrounding the woman and getting ready to arrest her, but she threw her other slipper at them and they shot her. Everyone around cheered and the cashier came out and said she’d been “waiting for them to do that for AGES.”
The new Tumblr trend that replaced “this is so sad Alexa play Despacito” was just “this is so ass” and eventually it got picked up by Instagram meme accounts and soon enough it was common to say “this is so ass” irl at the tiniest inconvenience.
lolita fashion (NOT to be confused with loli/lolita cp) is so cute I just wish it were named something else
lmao then call it something else because there’s a reason it’s called lolita and they aren’t at all using it because of cute fashion.
The name Lolita has nothing to do with pedophillia. It was chosen by Japanese designers in the 70’s because it sounded old fashion and European so it fit the style. Due to a language barrier they did not know what connotations it had outside of Japan
The Lolita fashion community is very anti pedophillia, please do not try to say that we are fetishists for using the terminology our community has used since the 70s it is not our fault
Lolita fashion was intended to be intentionally childish, but not because it would be sexual to pedophiles. The original lolita fashion movement was a symbol of rebellion, of girls reclaiming their sexuality from a society that told them to dress formally at all times to find a husband.
These girls created fashion based around a little girl’s idea of fancy. It wasn’t good looking to men, but the women who wore it loved it, and that was the entire point.
Lolita fashion is basically the Flapper movement of Japan (which, for those who don’t know, was also a movement of young women defying traditional gender roles by dressing in ways they found fun instead of in ways that were deemed appropriate).
a bunch of folks hated the idea of getting salary jobs. the work force and the schools where sucking souls dry. feminism is definitely different in japan but looking like a victorian doll was raidical. because of the hostility towards femininity the idea of looking girly was a middle finger.
I love this subculture because I always wanted to look like a princess. if younger me could see the dresses I own, I would of been more optimistic about the future
