Yesterday I turned 21.

And I had my first real drink. Along with drinks 2-6 (don’t worry, it was spread over the course of the day).

I really did have such a great birthday and I am so grateful to all my friends that helped me celebrate. I don’t think I could have done 21 any better.

awesome.

Remember this post where I talked about being allergic to Santa Clarita?

Well, I’m pretty sure I’ve figured it out and it looks as though I’m allergic to sunlight.

I’m not even kidding. I’m about 95% certain it’s a condition called photoallergic eruption.

…I’m calling to make an appt to see a dermatoligist tomorrow. =/

my schedule is finally final. hello graduation =)

Was she going to slap you because you never in any way made him gay in the actual books, taking zero risks/doing absolutely nothing for gay characters in literature, and only announcing your “authorial intent” afterwards for a cheap shot at looking like an ~ally~

^^^

Gay people are just normal people. We are not told about any of the Hogwarts professors love lives, other than Snape, and it would be completely out of character for Dumbledore to walk around telling everyone about his sexuality.

Did you want her to make him dress in glittery platform boots, a crop top, and decorate his office in rainbow flags to make it more obvious for you? Would that be enough of a stereotype to appease you people? Or what? Please tell me. I’d like to know how you think a gay character is supposed to be portrayed.

And did you miss the Grindelwald chapters in the ‘actual books’? Or was that also not obvious enough for you? Did Dumbledore need to whisper “always” wistfully in order for you to connect that he had romantic feelings for Grindelwald? Maybe you are American and need them to gaze longingly into each others eyes with awkward close ups of their fingers almost grazing each other that Hollywood thinks means ‘true love’.

It didn’t fit into his relationship to Harry to ever say “I’m gay”, and so it was not stated explicitly (you might have noticed the book was told from Harry Potter’s perspective).

The point is though, that he is a homosexual, well respected, powerful, and very loved wizard- and his sexuality doesn’t matter because no one else thinks it matters. a.k.a. no one cares that he loves men, and that is wonderful.

Uh what the fuck kind of straight man would make their password Lemon Drop? Dumbledore was gay right off the bat.

Seriously though. Pretty sure anyone who’s gay/bi/not straight can read those books and tell you that Dumblydore was gay.

Why does every major book series HAVE to be compared to Harry Potter?!?

Why can’t each be an accomplishment in their own right for whatever it may be?

All over the internet today I am seeing news of The Hunger Games being the “bestselling series ever” and they always seem to tack on the end “beating out Harry Potter.”

First of all, this isn’t even true. It is the best selling series ever ON AMAZON. I mean, let’s be honest, Amazon is only a percentage of Harry Potter sales because HP fans went out and bought these books at midnight, in stores. They weren’t gonna wait 3-10 business days for that shit.

AND this statistic includes e-book sales (kindle). Kindles have become HUGE in the past 3 years so obviously that has had a major impact as to what medium people chose to purchase The Hunger Games in. Let’s not pretend for even a moment that the sheer number of people who have read The Hunger Games compares to Harry Potter.

I love both series but I just don’t understand why they are constantly put up against one another. JK rowling wrote SEVEN amazing books. Suzanne Collins wrote one great book and 2 good books. The end.
