“I hope you live without the need to dominate, and without the need to be dominated. I hope you are never victims, but I hope you have no power over other people. And when you fail, and are defeated, and in pain, and in the dark, then I hope you will remember that darkness is your country, where you live, where no wars are fought and no wars are won, but where the future is. Our roots are in the dark; the earth is our country. Why did we look up for blessing — instead of around, and down? What hope we have lies there. Not in the sky full of orbiting spy-eyes and weaponry, but in the earth we have looked down upon. Not from above, but from below. Not in the light that blinds, but in the dark that nourishes, where human beings grow human souls.”

Ursula K. Le Guin, “A Left-Handed Commencement Address” (Mills College, 1983)

this passage planted itself in my consciousness when i was 24, and 10 years later, it informs so much of my approach to living, thinking, creating.

Midnights by Taylor Swift || October 21, 2022

What keeps you up at night?

This is a collection of music written in the middle of the night, a journey through terrors and sweet dreams. The floors we pace and the demons we face. For all of us who have tossed and turned and decided to keep the lanterns lit and go for searching. Hoping that just maybe, when the clock strikes twelve… we'll meet ourselves.

Indy!Harry/Slytherin!Harry Stories Be Like

James and Lily either living and being abusive parents or not even being his real parents, terribly OOC for the first point.

If it's WBWL, it's fuck all for Harry and a big W for his fat Wizard Dudley of a brother.

If Lily + James die, the Dursleys are either nice or so abusive that there is no fucking way Harry should survive the second they see him on the doorstep.

If it's a time-travel Fic, Harry transports his arse into his 7 year old self and convinces Amelia Bones and the Goblin hoes to do something. Yes, because a Ministry Figure would take the word of a 7 year old. And don't come after me with EEUGGH it's Veritaserum, I am pretty sure if a 7 year old was alone and somehow not picked up by Muggle Police, Aurors aren't gonna buy a time-travel story made up by a 7 year old.

If Harry is raised by Wolfstar, they are insanely OOC. Lets be honest, if Harry was raised by Wolfstar, he'd be a James 2.0 with an asshole personality, Remus would either neglect him like a coward or not be there because even if he's selfish, his werewolf arse ain't about to turn Harry into one of them Lycanthropes, Sirius is just emotionally unfit to be a parent, he lost Jily and too much emotional trauma surrounding his character. But in these fics, he's portrayed as a dumb overgrown teenager who constantly persuades Harry to get in trouble.

Lord Black, Lord Malfoy, Lord Potter, Lord Peverell, Lord Pendragon am I missing some? Anyways I am pretty sure either Sirius was being sarcastic about 'The Ancient and Most Noble House of Black' or only the Black's called themselves that shit. The closest thing to nobility in Harry Potter is Sir Cadogan and Sir Headless Nick. (Not to mention, Remus said that their was no Wizarding Princes, so bingo)

Creature Inheritance (I hate this part, Veela's aren't 'inherited' they are born, and it takes away from Fleur Delacour's character if she had to inherit it by goblin arseholes or earn her beauty privilege, Fleur is a smexy beauty, change my fucking mind.)

Drarry or Haphne or god forbid, SnArRy.

Or even worse, harems.

If Harry is a Pure-Blood, he becomes a Draco 2.0 and talks about 'Pure-Blood Culture.'

Ginny magically becomes a slut and gold digger (Wtf), Ron becomes a thick headed fat backstabbing Peter Pettigrew 2.0, Molly becomes a manipulative bitch (Uh, Mollywobbles would never), and maybe Arthur or Percy are bashed. Sometimes Bill and Charlie are included in the bashfest, do you know who isn't though? The twins, who have way more reasons to bash them, I suppose pretty privilege is a thing.

Harry trying to reunite Narcissa and Andromeda (Yeah, because that's gonna happen)

Tonks bashing (Why do y'all indy!harry writers hate my girl Tonks, she did nothing wrong other than prevent your puppy ship that wasn't gonna happen anyway)

Harry speaking like a 60 year old British Politician at the age of 11.

'Slytherin Court'

Being in Slytherin or Ravenclaw, why no Hufflepuff? Or even a Gryffindor Indy!Harry.

Snape liking him for whatever reason.

Hermione is either Harry's love interest or a manipulative slut.

mpreg.

I'm not saying all Indy!Harry or Slytherin!Harry are bad, in fact they can be quite interesting, but Harry is so god damn annoying and overpowered in these fics.
