Anyone else get sick of being in their own head, listening to their own thoughts all the damn time?

Me: Where does everyone want to go?
Boyfriend: I’m saying Abner’s.
Me: Why?
Boyfriend: It’s cheap
Me: Well, if we’re going there I’m probably not going to eat I’ll just get some popcorn or something at the theatre.
Boyfriend: They have salads though.
Me:…

My thing is baked potato & beans. I mean, I like baked potato and beans, but I get really sick of having it everywhere we go.

Will someone explain to me why the word “stupid” is considered ableist? Because this seriously baffles me.

“Stupid” has been used by the medical community and the community at large to describe people with developmental disorders. My boyfriend was mocked by teachers and called “stupid” because he’s dyslexic. My doctor told my mother I was “stupid” because of various aspects of my autism. “Stupid” has been used to justify locking people like me in asylums, in basements. “Stupid” has been used to disavow testimony given by people like me. My grandmother is what is still medically classified in some places as “retarded” and as a child, was abused by various people in various ways, and when she spoke about it, nobody believed her because she was “stupid”. The eugenics movement is against us “stupid” people even existing, and I consider anyone who believes in always aborting Down Syndrome fetuses as part of this, by the way.

Intelligence is not a measure of character. Intelligence, in many ways, is also subjective. I cannot remember names or act in the usual social way. I cannot hold a pen My boyfriend cannot spell or pronounce things well. My autistic cousin Joe has been taught most of his life how to tie his shoes and he still cannot. Yet, we are all smart in various ways. My partner has a wide array of knowledge, as do I. And Joe is bloody smart for his age.

Insult someone by calling them ignorant, deliberately ill-informed, pig-headed, stubborn. Do not insult intelligence levels. Ignorance is a choice, intelligence… well, it just isn’t. Your capacity to learn, and your access to learning materials, aren’t always under your control, and have nothing to do with your character.

HEY GUYS
Here’s your reminder that there’s a new online literary magazine in town, JUST FOR YOU.

That’s right! Parallel Worlds has already got lots of book reviews up (go read them and share your thoughts/book-recommendations!). But we need STORIES! So check out our submissions page and start writing, or send in stories you already wrote if they fit the criteria for content/structure! OR you can help us out in other ways. Even just sharing this post will help because the more people we reach, the more content we’ll get, and the faster we get content the faster you can read more awesome stories! By the way, we’re not restricted to classic sci-fi, but include other related genres including steampunk and modern fantasy, so if you’re less about aliens and spaceships and more about time travel or perhaps clockwork automatons then that’s cool too.

REBLOG this to spread the word, or better yet, make your own post so that it will show up in relevant tags! Thanks :D You can also follow us on tumblr.

I can’t stop laughing at Harry running the fuck away, the boy who lived ladies and gentlemen.

….You realize, of course, that Hermione Granger lit a teacher on fire when she was eleven, and kept a person alive in a jar for a year when she was fourteen, and studies dark and forbidden magics for kicks, and is one of the brightest and strongest witches of her era. If she came at me, even wandless, I would aparate to Neptune to get away from her.

Hermione Granger also: 

• punched Draco Malfoy in the nose for being an idiot 
• purposefully performed a confundus charm on whatshsface WHILE HE WAS FLYING just so Ron would win (omfg that is so fucking dangerous) 
• literally pulled a fucking Bourne Identity on her parents and managed to set them up in fucking Australia (jesus christ she literally made it so that she NEVER EXISTED wtf that’s so fucking 007)
• Convinced the Ministry of Magic to give her an incredibly dangerous and volatile device that allowed her to ALTER TIMELINES COMPLETELY (just because she was so smart, literally, that is the reason, her “potential”) 
• Has enough basic survival skills and badass magic to literally disappear to the middle of nowhere and flourish AND figure out Voldemort’s plot with Harry 
• Hermione also figures out not only what Voldemort’s plan is, but generally how to beat it, WAY BEFORE VOLDEMORT EVER DOES. Why? because she is just that much smarter and better at magic than everybody else

in conclusion: Voldemort wishes he could be as awesome as Hermione, that’s why he wants to kill her so bad. 

Can we rehave this series with hermione as the protagonist. 

Hermione Granger and “That Time I Used the Power of Research and Deductive Reasoning to Make Sure Harry Didn’t Die”

Hermione Granger and “That time I figured shit out and literally ended up petrified for the cause and it took my friends weeks to figure out that I had the research on me”

Hermione Granger and “That Time I Was a Time Lord”

Hermione Granger and “That Time I Realized I was Hot and Smart and Saved Harry’s Ass with Research. Again. All the Time. Really, He Would Have Died Without Me.” 

Hermione Granger and “That time Harry was too emo to actually do shit so I did shit in his name because I am the power behind the throne clearly also PS fought evil deatheaters and won”

Hermione Granger and “That Time I told Harry about the Dangers of Copying off Somebody’s else’s work that wasn’t mine and OH LOOK I WAS RIGHT”

Hermione Granger and “That Time I let Harry Decide Where to Go and What To do and we ended up wandering the forests of dean for like 5 months before saving his ass at Hogwarts” 

OH LOOK I WAS RIGHT

all of the above ^^

So, where is my Hermione, Queen of Everything fanvid? :(

Because surely such a thing must exist, internets!
