Harry Potter and the Jesus Christ You're Still Into That, What the Fuck
Spend so long waiting for a letter from Hogwarts an AARP card shows up first
@jalefkowit
"Yea're a geezer, Harry!"
@jalefkowit Harry Potter and the You're Not a Hufflepuff, you're thirty four
@frogglin @jalefkowit Harry Potter and that time they lit JK Rowling’s yacht on fire.
@frogglin @jalefkowit Harry Potter and the my dude if Hogwarts were real there would be a court order banning you from residing within 500 feet of it
@flyingsaceur @frogglin @jalefkowit Honestly given the whole "mindrape is normalized and date-rape drugs are sold in the open", I don't think one would really want to have anything to do with its surrounding country.
@jalefkowit two tastes that taste great together re: HP. Yours, and Verge:

@jalefkowit I get what you're saying, I really do. Despite this being a big part of my childhood, I have boycotted her works.

However... I cannot bring myself to hate my friends for not boycotting the things I dislike. A weakness of mine

@sounddrill but they recognize rowling being a transphobe is awful at least, right?

@jalefkowit

@xyhhx @jalefkowit oh yeah they do.

I don't have any friends that love JK Rowling after that, I think. It was a general statement after some self introspection

@sounddrill friendship is important. Don't cut off your friends when they obviously need you. If you actually can't stand the mental cost of staying with them, sure, but not before that. We seriously need to normalize sticking to friends despite some awful views they have because you might turn out their bridge back into sanity or prevent their radicalization. @jalefkowit
I feel like I get blocked so much for saying stupid shit that seems like such a great idea at the time, and if someone's like "Hey that's stupid, and shit," I'm like "Oh shit man you're right."

@jalefkowit Harry Potter and the Dirty Bloody Terfs.
@jalefkowit was never into Harry Potter, to many internal inconsistencies in the world building. Which to me is a big thing when it's strong enough to brake my immersion, which it did.

@jalefkowit Actually, trim some words off and that is the perfect Paramount/Skydance/Warner Bros. fodder to pander to their intended suckers.

Harry Potter & the Jesus Christ.

No further pitch needed.

@jalefkowit To quote Stewart Lee: "I haven't read [Harry Potter], but I have read the complete works of the Romantic poet and visionary William Blake, so fuck off!"
