Anyone remember Hand Pupoet Theatre, at JerryTheFrogProductions.com?
It's preserved on Archive.org!
Sadly Jerry the Frog never got passed the forth movie, so we never got a Tonks or Luna puppet.

Neville Longbottom's toad Trevor, and their Rememberall. Since I don't have my own Rememberall, I can't remember how large it or Trevor are supposed to be.

If you value value women's rights, LGBT rights, democracy, or minimalizing civilian casualties in war, you'll vote Blue.
If you care more about a "protest vote" than these issues, then you are NOT a "progressive."

"Moonlight Run"
Too late I realize that these are not wolves, they're domestic dogs. At least the ears need changing. Sigh.
When did Remus Lupin and Nymphadora Tonks fall in love?
Here is my proposal:
As they grew closer, Remus lamented missing his moonlight runs with the Marauders, the best times of his largely depressing live. Empathetic and adventurous, Tonks was already experimenting with her Metamorphmagus abilities for her undercover work with the order, using potions and spells to enhance her natural shape-shifting abilities. One full moon, she surprised Remus with a new trick, morphing into a wolf. Once she'd reassured him that she had not actually infected herself with the Lycan curse, they took off into the woods. Tonks amused Remus and herself by changing her fur color from red, to black, to purple, to pink, and so on throughout the night. That was the night Remus and Dora confessed their feelings for each other.
Tonks would later join Remus on some undercover missions infiltrating the werewolves, taking a tawny brown tint similar to her natural hair color. After a close shave, Remus refused to let her join him on such missions anymore, and this kickstarted her anxiety for his safety and depression. Once they officially hooked up and she regained her powers, they took to the Forbidden Forest for another run after Dumbledore's funeral.
I wanted to have a picture of Teddy Lupin and Victoire Weasley to accompany this one, since both had a history with werewolves on their fathers' sides, and shape-shifting on their mothers'. (Recall that Veela can transform into monsters.) Unfortunately I came down with a bad cold, and was lucky to get this picture done in time for Valentine's Day.
Edit: It took over a year but I finally fixed the wolves' ears.

Double-check that the Galleons, Sickles and Knuts you're donating really are going to free the House Elves or save a hippogriff, and not funding Horcrux manufacturing.
Falling for scams does hurt people, actually
TW: Human trafficking, SA, torture, discussion of scam farms
I see a whole bunch of people arguing that they would rather risk giving to a scammer than ignore someone's gofundme. I also see people saying things like "I can't believe some sick people are profiteering off genocide" and like, me neither, but I feel like you guys really don't understand who actually runs these kinds of scams and what they are.
Scams of noticeable scale-- like scam asks being sent from hundreds of accounts to every user on Tumblr!-- are typically related to organised crime in poor countries, not Susan from Milwaukee who wants a new coat and has no scruples. People get trafficked by gangs to scam farms in Asia and Africa where they're worked to the bone and tortured trying to get idiots in wealthy countries to part with their money. Genocide profiteering is pretty much the least evil thing these people do.
Here's a UN article on it. Obvious warnings for content related to human trafficking and SA.
When you donate to a scammer, you fund these organisations and give them a reason to exist. It's possible some of the fundraisers are legit. I honestly find it unlikely given I'm not seeing any from any other countries where urgent fundraisers would seem to have great reason to exist but which haven't captured the same level of attention on Tumblr-- the number of Sudanese, Congolese, Ukrainian, Burmese or Uyghur fundraisers in my DMs is a fat 0. In any case, there are safer ways to help.
If you want to help (which is great!) you don't have to take the risk of paying for human trafficking. Donate to legitimate charities which have the resources to safely and effectively ensure the money and help is getting to the right people. Funding human trafficking rings in Myanmar is not a good risk to be taking while trying to help.

Tel Aviv last night

Following the devastating news of the murder of 6 hostages, us Israelis are striking and protesting for a deal.
Saying we don’t want a ceasefire deal is just wrong. There are protests nationwide, school and most businesses are closed in protest.
We want a ceasefire / hostages deal . Bring them home now❤️🎗️

Seven does Hogwarts
I've always placed Seven in Ravenclaw, but her roles as a Fenis Ranger and command officer on "Picard" have me second-guessing that.
