Me reading about “Draco”

1) Draco was a dragon killed by the goddess Minerva and tossed into the sky upon his defeat.

WHAT’S WRONG WITH YOU MCGONAGALL?? I THOUGHT YOU LIKED DRACO :O WTF. I HOPE YOU DIDN’T TURN HIM INTO A FERRET TOO.

2) In some mythology, Draco had guarded the golden apple tree, and was put in the sky as a constellation for protecting the apples with valor.

DRAPPLE o_o

3) Draco, the last dragon, ascends into the constellation after he sacrifices himself to destroy an evil king.

YEAH WE KNOW YOU PLAYED A PART IN THE DESTRUCTION OF VOLDY

4) The much larger SuperDraco engine will be used on. SuperDraco engines are capable of being restarted many times, and have the capability to deeply reduce their thrust, providing precise control. As of 2015, SuperDraco is the most powerful engine and only outmatched by Merlin.

OOPS SORRY FOR THAT ONE

5) The price of Draco was about 14,990 US dollars, but a lot cheaper in Europe.

YOU EUROPEAN BASTARDS.

6) Draco established the legal code. The laws that he laid down were the first written constitution. It featured several major innovations: Instead of oral laws known to a special class, arbitrarily applied and interpreted, all laws were written, thus being made known to all literate citizens. The laws distinguish between murder and involuntary homicide.

OK, HIS LAWS WERE BAD, BUT AT LEAST HE TRIED. MUDBLOODS, WIZARDS? SAME THING. PLUS HE WAS AN INVOLUNTARY DEATH EATER.

7) The death penalty was the punishment for even minor offenses, such as ‘stealing a cabbage’.

I THOUGHT YOU LIKED APPLES, DRAY. OMG. CABBAGO. LET’S SHIP CABBAGO. DON’T TOUCH MY CABBAGE BECAUSE OTHERWISE MY FATHER WILL HEAR ABOUT THIS.

8) Draco means “serpent”, “dragon”. The root means “to watch” or “to guard with a sharp eye”. It is a derivative of Greek drakōn"gazing".

DEFINITELY A SLYTHERIN. WATCHING HERMIONE. OF COURSE. AT THE YULE BALL, YOU KNOW. CANON STUFF. BUT AFTER TOO. HE FOUND HER PRETTY ONCE? HE’S NOT GONNA FIND HER UGLY EVER AFTER, YOU KNOW. HE’S NOT AN IDIOT.

9) Draco was undoubtedly seen by the army as a special protective symbol, while it also played an important role in the religious life of the people.

DRACO REPRESENTED HOPE. HOW CUTE.

10) The draco shows a religious syncretism.

YEAH, LIKE PUREBLOOD AND MUGGLEBORN. PERFECT SYNCRETISM.

11) The draco is the symbolic image of victory although it is absent from pictures on the column that illustrate the 2nd war.

HOW CUTE. PEOPLE KNOW HE’S AWESOME, BUT HE STILL FEELS BAD. NO PICTURE. DON’T WANT TO GET AN ITW WITH SKEETER. AND HIS WAND DEFEATED VOLDY, OF COURSE.

BONUS: Hermes, aka Hermione, had a magic wand framed by two intertwined snakes; at the top of the staff are two wings. She is the guide of the dead and protector of merchants, gamblers, liars and thieves.

OH 2 SNAKES AROUND HER? OH SHIT THEY HAD A KID! AND WELL, NOW WE KNOW WHY LUCIUS DIDN’T WANT HIS SON TO BE A THIEF; HE WAS SCARED DRACO WOULD TALK TO HERMIONE THEN, THE MUGGLEBORN GIRL. BUT SHE’S HIS PROTECTOR AND YEAH, SHE’S ONE OF THE REASONS HE DIDN’T GO TO AZKABAN; THAT’S A WELL KNOWN FACT.)

BONUS 2: “I’m going to start with Hermes‘ connection with Gemini, as it is the most obvious and so it will be out of the way first. Given the god’s association with Mercury, as well as the famous Gemini traits like intelligence, quick talking, playfulness and trickery, it’s no wonder that Hermes is closely tied to this sign.”

DRACO IS A FUCKING GEMINI, YOU ALL. HIS BIRTHDAY IS ON JUNE 5TH.

BYE.

URGENT: STRAIGHT MALE ALLIES NEEDED TO SHUT DOWN LEGAL RAPE “INTERNATIONAL MEETING”

This coming Saturday, February 6, at 8pm local time, followers of “Roosh V”- noted sexist, racist, homophobic, and overall horrible monster (not a human being)- will be holding secret meetings to rally for rape to be legalized. You didn’t read this wrong THEY WANT RAPE TO BE LEGALIZED.

This shit is dangerous af, and as they have barred anyone who isn’t male or straight, so we need all our white male allies to gather and shut this shit down. If you are a straight man of colour, please be careful. Even though the website says the meeting is for straight men of all races, the Roosh V following has also been known to be very racist and xenophobic.

Here is how the meeting will take place, as according to their website (I’m not going to link it because it does not deserve any hits, but all the info here is authentic- you may google and see for yourself):

We will have 165 meetings in 43 countries for our international meetup day on February 6, 2016 at 8PM local time. Hosts have been instructed to wait at the meeting point from 8:00-8:20pm before moving on to the final location. If you arrive at the meeting point at 8:21pm, you will miss the meetup. Arriving on time within the window is absolutely paramount.

To identify your fellow tribesmen, ask the following question to a man you suspect is there for the meetup: “Do you know where I can find a pet shop?” If you are asked this question, answer in the affirmative: “Yes, it’s right here.” You can then introduce yourself and get details about where to proceed at 8:20. If you ask someone for the pet shop and they appear confused or actually try to direct you to a real pet shop, they’re not there for the meetup.

If you are a woman, DO NOT GO, your safety is at risk. Roosh V has made it very apparent that your presence might be met with violence.

I won’t be able to attend a shut down (obvs- brown gay turban guy), but we need to shut this down ASAP. So to all my white brothers who identify as allies, now is your time to stand up and act.

I will be calling the RCMP and reporting this, make sure you report this to your local police as well.
