HPL's early life and family were extremely hosed up and he was scared of super weird things, and afraid of going crazy like both his parents. He admitted a bunch of his stories that were about someone discovering their hosed ip family history only to degenerate to the same level were based on his fear of being like his asylum-bound parents. I imagine those other factors compounded normal old timey racism into whatever weird breed of superracism he had. He also seemed to think hillbillies were subhuman, but Im not sure I can disagree with that.

Oh also his wife couldn't get him to gently caress her, he thought men were only horny till like age 19 and by the time his wife was randy he'd aged out of it.

He was profoundly fuckin weird.

Even as a kid I basically ignored the existence of the last couple books. I loved the first 4? 5? of them but after that they are absolute loving garbage, ESPECIALLY snape's "redemption"

I also honestly thought bras were functional wear most of the time, to prevent medium-to-large breasts from being uncomfortable to carry around while doing anything physically exerting. Like isn't that the entire point of a sports bra?

Yes! The bigger the tit the more support it needs. Its part of my theory as to why you can easily find small bras in a rainbow of colors, styles, and frills while its hard to find a big bra that isn't white, beige, or black and entirely utilitarian in design. They aren't for show, they're performing an important duty.

Yep. If you're larger on top, the only time you can comfortably go without is when you're lounging and doing nothing around the house. It can get painful without one, and forget exercise. I fully agree with your theory about pretty vs functional. The bigger the cup, the more it looks like an engineering project.

It hosed me up as a teen a little cause my mom would shop at victorias secret and get pretty stuff and I'd get fitted and they straight up told me they didnt have bras in my size so I had to go get some construction equipment looking poo poo at walmart

Even then, underboob sweat :( BTW, Victoria's Secret not having larger sizes is a deliberate marketing plan, because they don't want people to shop there who aren't "their customer".

There are now a lot of zazzy brands that have colorful bras for bigger cup sizes. https://us.brastop.com/ https://www.bravissimo.com

As soon as this pandemic is over I'm putting on my rude fish shirt and taking my fat rear end and tits to take pics in VS and tweet them at the brand

Maybe she's worried they're using being close to her as a "test" to see if they really want to transition too. The date more like more like "do i want to be her" rather than "do I want to be WITH her". Its good for them to figure that out but would still kinda suck for her.

I've seen versions of this story before and for some reason there's never the opposite version of this story. "Go ahead, shag a communist, you might learn something"

I'm half mexican but for some reason all my dads melanin skipped me and went to my brother so I've always been in a confused position as far as to what I "am". No doubt that I'm my dad's daughter, my bone structure/facial features are 100% his, but being a weird mutt in a country so obsessed with race is a strange experience. I always have this weird feeling like i need to categorize myself, but in a way other people will accept? Saying I'm white feels weird because I'm like a recolor of my dad, but i have pale skin and auburn hair so idk. Being american is weird.

Carolla is a dumb bitch but lets all be honest here, stew in almost all forms is delicious and generally very easy to make. We should all be eating stew, chowder, and idk...curry is basically spicy stew, toss that one on too. The easiest way for a lazy cook to make something delish.


Is there an italian version of plastic paddies? I feel like American "italians" are like 500x more annoying about their poo poo. My favorite thing is when they do those DNA tests and find out they're not italian at all

Italian American culture is such a weird distinct thing that’s so separate from actual Italian culture that I don’t want to call it plastic. It gets satirized in an exaggerated way in things like Jersey Shore, but it really is it’s own thing. So much so, that you’ll find a lot of people who operate fully within the Italian American culture who aren’t actually Italian by blood. It’s not unusual to meet someone who seems to check off all of the Italian-American stereotypes but is actually of Puerto Rican or Colombian background. It’s not necessarily that they falsely believe themselves to be Italian, that’s just the culture they feel comfortable in.

Ok but they absolutely refuse to shut the gently caress up about how they're "italian" and all the various things that implies, and they always had "family in the mob" or "connections"

They're like what olive garden is to italian food, but they make it their whole personality

As a kid i would read the first 3 HP books over and over, then I'd kind of slow down on goblet of fire and order of the penis, struggled my way through halfblood prince, and straight up couldnt finish deathly hallows. The more popular they got the worse the writing was. As a kid I didnt understand what was going on but i realized later that the more popular she got the less editing was happening, after all she was the genius author behind the first half of the books, so why not let her bloat them to 3x the length and make them impossible to read. Its sorta like george lucas, and many others.

Look how easy it is to see where the quality took a nosedive

I ran the largest Harry Potter roleplay group on Deviantart after highschool, like literally the biggest one there WAS on that site, the founders were two lesbians and a trans man, and a lot of our members were young queer people

It hits different when you read it as an adult vs reading it as a 6-10 year old outcast/minority, you want to be harry and get delivered out of your closet into a magical world. It really made it hard to accept who JKR was, and it doesnt surprise me that her being this way has broken a lot of people's brains, either through trying to rationalize her behavior or the sadness of having something you love twisted against you like that.

It genuinely depresses me what shes done to that part of my childhood, and I cant revisit that media and enjoy it like I used to without her shadow looming over every aspect of it. I loving hate her so much that every tweet and comment ripping into her makes me happy.

"The studio’s management has not addressed recent comments from the author J.K. Rowling that were widely viewed as transphobic"

quit being wishy-washy, its not the backlash that upsets people, and her statements arent 'widely viewed' as transphobic. Its her venomous bullshit that is making people reel back and her statements are clearly, blatantly, and unapologetically transphobic. Geeet hosed
