I’m reading through how my expenses will be evaluated for my taxes last year and I keep having to stop and laugh because I know what that file says, I know what’s itemized. And that’s a whole lot of skeletons to go through.
Have fun random IRS person have fun.

My favorite headcanon is Ron teaching Harry to shave with some sort of charm that all the boys are taught growing up by their dad’s. But of course Harry never got to have that, so when he’s like 13 and hair starts forming on his face, Ron being the sweetheart that he is offers to do it for him.
I LOVE this idea. I can see Ron helping him out and Seamus wandering into the bathroom and giving them shit and Ron being all “Piss off” and just continuing to carefully shave Harry’s face all the while sharing horror stories of all the crap his brothers tried to pull on him the last summer when he first started shaving. “Stop laughing, Harry, or I’m gonna accidentally charm off your whole sodding chin!”

Mikael Chukwuma Owunna, a queer Nigerian-Swedish artist raised in Pittsburgh, has spent the past two and a half years photographing Black men and women for a series titled Infinite Essence. Hand-painted using fluorescent paints and photographed in complete darkness, Owunna’s subjects are illuminated by a flash outfitted with a UV filter, which turns their nude bodies into glowing celestial figures.
Owunna tells Colossal that the series was his response to the frequent images and videos of Black people being killed by those sworn to protect them: the police. The photographer’s friends, family members, dancers, and one person he connected with on Instagram serve as models for the project, which is named after an idea from his Igbo heritage. “All of our individual spirits are just one ray of the infinite essence of the sun,” Owunna explains. “By transcending the visible spectrum, I work to illuminate a world beyond our visible structures of racism, sexism, homophobia and transphobia where the black body is free.”

In the US, a person’s wheelchair is viewed legally as an extension of their body.
1. If you touch someone’s wheelchair without their consent, that is Assault. In some states, this is automatically Aggravated Assault because the assault has been committed against a disabled person.
2. If you grab a someone’s moving wheelchair to stop it, lean on their wheelchair making it jolt or tilt, climb over their wheelchair to get past it, or move their wheelchair because you think it’s in your way, you are risking injury to an obviously medically fragile person and that is Reckless Endangerment.
3. If you grab or hold onto a wheelchair, block it or in any other way prevent the person from leaving, that is Unlawful Detention or Unlawful Restraint.
4. If you start pushing a person’s wheelchair without their explicit consent, that is Abduction.
This is not a moral philosophy or an opinion. These are legal definitions. If you do any of these things, you are committing a crime for which you can be prosecuted and do jail time, and you will have a criminal record which will follow you for the rest of your life.
These same laws are applied in the same way to any mobility device including canes, walkers, and scooters. If you kick someone’s cane, grab their walker, pull on the handlebars of their scooter or in any other way touch or manhandle someone’s mobility device you are committing a crime for which you can be prosecuted and go to prison.

To new, inexperienced drivers:
so idk if they teach you this in drivers’ ed class or whatever, but if you see someone in the opposite direction flashing their high beams at you, they’re NOT being a dick. they’re saying, “SLOW DOWN, I just saw a police car back there”.
If I hadn’t known that today, I wouldn’t have noticed the police car hiding in its fox hole and gotten a ticket for going 20 over the speed limit. and I’m glad I don’t have to pay $80 for a dumb mistake!!!

im EXHAUSTED at the implication that being 25 is old. im very young. i am not a child at 29! i am an adult!
HOWEVER,
people who are 30 are not old. people who are 40? not that old! your 20s arent a marathon with 50+ year cooling off period? you don’t have to accomplish literally anything in your 20s if you can’t or don’t want to, and you can still do things afterwards. acting like people who are no longer teens or still teen flavored are all ancient would be a much funnier joke if people didn’t seem to legitimately believe it!
when i was in high school my best friend told me all the time that she’d rather be dead than turn 40 because she wouldn’t be beautiful anymore, and like… i see so many young people on the internet sharing similar sentiments.
there are things that youth will afford some of us—energy, access, ability, health, etc.—that you can take advantage of during your teens and 20s, but to believe that your impact will lessen, that your life will diminish, that you have to “grow up” and stop having interests or friends or an independent or social life once you turn 23, 25, 27, 30??? guys, that’s BANANAS.
please don’t buy in to the idea that your youth is all you have to offer.
