There's something in us that is very much attracted to madness. Everyone who looks off the edge of a tall building has felt at least a faint, morbid urge to jump.

it takes courage to be kind. it takes effort to be kind. no, it does not cost $0 to be kind. Kindness is a choice. Sometimes, a hard one. But people still make it and that's what keeps the world going.

I love reading fanfiction from fandoms I'm not even a part of and have no intention of getting into. like fuck yeah I'm going to read a very serious and well-written Wordgirl fanfiction with bible quotes at the end of every chapter, that's what it's all a fuckin bout baby.

I love so many relationships in these movies but these two just hit different

Yknow, I'm genuinely surprised there hasn't been some sort of weird horror/adult adaptation of The Magic Tree House.

Like, an It style thing. And I don't know why that surprises me. The books weren't particularly scary, and I don't know if I ever read the origins book, so I don't know how it ended up there or why those kids are there in it all the time.

But it's still really weird to me. Like, it feels like the perfect recipe for some sort of weird, dystopian horror. An isekai horror, if you will. These two early-to-mid teenagers getting shoved into the past or future or different dimension or however you have it. And they need to get home or whatever.

I love badass, kick ass smart spiteful fix it characters in bashing fics as much as anyone

But sometimes the fandom is like 'Such a spineless and selfish character, why didn't they do nothing, should have faced the evil villains more, why didn't they start a violent revolution, why they didn't help my favorite character more...'

And its literally just a traumatized powerless child trying to survive

"Happiness can be found in even the darkest of times if only one remembers to turn on the light." Bitch, student Snape could have turned on a fucking lighthouse and you mother-fuckers would still have ignored him

I need to make it clear. I love Alan and Snape very separately. they are completely different to me. when I think of Snape, there’s an influence of Alan but it’s not just him. and when I think of Alan, I think of him as him, not as The Guy Who Played Snape.

my first exposure to both of them was watching PS at the age of 6. but I’ve seen Alan in so much since then that I’ve separated him from Snape. and I’ve read the books (and fanfic) so many more times than I’ve watched the film that I’ve separated Snape from Alan.

basically it’s like this

I would still love Alan if he hadn’t played Snape. I would have seen him in Love Actually or Die Hard and been like I love this incredible man

I would still love Snape if he hadn’t been played by Alan. I would have seen whoever played him in the film and I would have read him in the books and been like I love this gremlin man

basically there is an alternate reality where I’m like “oh man I wish Alan Rickman had played Snape. That would be cool I think.” and I am very grateful I live in the universe where Alan played Snape

I Wish for Liberation

I sit in the dark, my thoughts a storm of fragments, and I wish, not with the innocence of a child but with the bitter clarity of experience, that you would feel the weight of every wound you gave.

do you know the sharp sting of betrayal, the cruel echo of a lie, the loneliness that wraps around the heart like a shroud?

I want you to know the hollow ache of waiting, the gnawing uncertainty that burrows deep, the sleepless nights stretched out in their endless, aching expanse.

I want the weight of your own choices to press down on you, heavy and relentless, until you understand the pressure that drove me to despair, until you feel a trace of my sorrow settling like dust in your own empty spaces.

you, who sculpted misery with your hands, who wielded cruelty like a blade, are you aware of the echoes you left? do you hear them whisper in your dreams, the ache you wove so effortlessly into my days?

i could wish for storms to ravage your calm, for the sky to crack open with lightning that rends the fabric of your peace, for the tremors of regret to shake your foundation.

yet, even as I wish this, I realize that suffering does not heal, that the flames of revenge only scorch the hands that wield them.

so, instead, I let the weight of my sorrow settle, a quiet confession to the universe that sometimes I crave for the scales to tip,

for the pain to be known, but mostly,

I wish for liberation, for the shackles of my anger to fall away, and for a heart that no longer clings to the shadows of the past.

so I let the wish drift, a bitter gust of wind that fades into the void, and I turn away, searching for a release from this desire, for a way to mend the broken pieces without adding more shards to the world’s already jagged heart.
