hey so i've been wanting to make a form for the marauders fandom to fill out for a while now looking at how headcanons/ship preferences/etc relate to how long people have been in the fandom, and i just want to know how interested people would be in seeing something like that. please reblog for a larger sample size and so more people know i might be doing this :)
thanks to everybody who answers and/or reblogs !!
Don’t look at things you know will make you angry. Don’t read the comment sections. Don’t look at the blogs of people who add dumb comments to posts to confirm that they’re dumb all the time. Don’t read old conversations you had with people you don’t talk to anymore. Go look at pictures of kittens or something instead. Protect yourself from negativity in every way you can.
Jennifer Lawrence being a zionist apologist ruined the movies for me. Katniss deserves better than to be represented by someone like that.
“Crimson rivers is better than the hunger games,” I say into the mic.
The crowd boos. I begin to walk off in shame, when a voice speaks and commands silence from the room.
“They’re right,” they say. I look for the owner of the voice. There in the 1st row stands: Suzanne Collins.
Todo lo que fue de los dos son ecos de amor
(Everything left between you and me are echos of love)
Regulus means "little king" in Latin.
its Greek equivalent is Basiliskos or, in Latinised form, Basiliscus.
Regulus is also the heart of the constellation Leo.
Hear me out. Regulus, whose second house is Gryffindor.
The hat sure thought for a few minutes about whether to send him to Slytherin or Gryffindor.
the ICON that regulus is, even in canon. like even before getting into the marauders, WHAT DO YOU MEAN A RANDOM 18 YO DISCOVERED THE HORROCRUXES AND DIED DESTROYING ONE BY HIS OWN?!?!?! iconic behavior if you ask me
james potter the man that you are
So you all have the Marauders fandom that is mostly out of jkr's clutches. It's super gay and fun and we all love it.
BUT...what if I tell you about the Four Founders fandom where Jkr only has her the tip of her little pinky, giving us a LOT to work with. Where it's old magic, medieval fantasy with cottage core aesthetic, discovering Hogwarts, battles, royalty, found family, strangers to hostile friends to friends to lovers to enemies! and as usual pain...a lot of pain. This one is also gay just in case anyone was wondering.
'Cause I have a project going on. I already have some dedicated readers, but just in case anyone missed out here's your chance!
It's with a heavy but hopeful heart that I watch Palestinian families fundraiser on here, slowly accumulating the precious little money to go around that they need to survive. However, not everyone is so lucky. A lot of Palestinians that have not had that kind of luck, that did not get early verification, that did not get massive platforms behind them from large bloggers, have approached me in my inbox, asking me kindly to do what I can for them. It kills me that I have so little to give myself, but I've seen this platform collectively raise enough to change someone's life. I've made a list of Palestinian fundraisers that are extremely low on funds, in the hope that drawing attention to people who have not been lucky at all can help turn that luck around. I know most of us can't possibly give enough to get all of these families safe in one go. But please, reblog this list. Pick one or two fundraisers, give what you can, and then keep track of it. Slowly, collectively, we can make a difference in these people's lives. Share and donate as much as you can. https://docs.google.com/document/d/178EGDFKkHlh3y4TMVX82kqgITHsqtoMdNccI2f_94Os/edit?usp=sharing
HA! Canon material that sirius DID care for reggie! Damn he should've known his dear little brother did defect in the end😭 rollercoster of emotions rn
just. dropping this here
Me: *Removes my cat from my lap to do something else.*
My cat: Father is...evil? Father is unyielding? Father is incapable of love? I am running away. I am packing my little rucksack and going out to explore the world as a lone vagabond. I can no longer thrive in this household.
I think anybody else by faozia and Rose-colored boy by paramore are such jegulus coded songs. In james pov and reggies pov respectively.
Anybody Else by Faouzia
"Can we go back to a time when you were just a stranger, and my heart was strong? It's a cruel love, never-ending"
Regulus to James !!
"Can we go back to a time when you were just a stranger,"
aka his brothers best friend
"and my heart was strong?"
when he never showed emotion and just did what his parents told him to. When the only time he ever let himself cry was as a small child in Sirius' arms. Before James, he was able to pretend his thoughts and emotions didn't matter. That love wasn't important. He sees his emotional vulnerability as weakness, so now, in loving James, he feels weaker than he ever had. His heart is no longer strong in his mind, even if it's actually stronger now than it ever was.
Rose-Colored Boy by Paramore
"But hearts are breaking, and wars are raging on. And I have taken my glasses off. You got me nervous. I'm right at the end of my rope. A half empty girl. Don't make me laugh, I'll choke"
I know you said jegulus, but my first thought was actually Peter to the rest of the marauders.
"But hearts are breaking, and wars are raging on."
they're literally in the middle of a war :/
"And I have taken my glasses off. You got me nervous. I'm right at the end of my rope. A half empty girl."
He no longer gets to be a stupid kid whose only worries are what pranks he and his friends are going to pull off. He has to pull himself together and be an adult. Pass his exams, worry about a war effort. He can't be some silly kid anymore, no matter if he's ready to grow up or not. He's worried about the future. Everything scares him. He's not ready to grow up, and neither are his friends, but in his eyes, he's the only one who's accepted that they need to.
"Don't make me laugh, I'll choke."
In other words, don't make me secret keeper, I'll spill. Peter betrayed his friends. Into the war, he became detached from them because of his mindset that I previously mentioned. No matter whether they saw it that way or not, Peter thought his friends hadn't accepted that they had to get serious (ha) and grow up, and he had. He thought he was making the right decision in growing up by preserving his own life rather than James and Lily's. He thought that keeping himself alive and preserving his own self had meant he'd grown up, but really, it just meant he lost his friends. He didn't see them on the same level. Don't make me laugh, I'll choke. Don't make me secret keeper, I'll spill. Don't act that way, I've grown up (you should too).
Did they win the fucking lottery???
Tom Holland as Peter pettigrew fancast. Came to me in a dream lol.

Are you heading for a burnout without even realizing it? For neurodivergent folks, the warning signs of burnout may look different and be harder to recongize.
Neurodivergent or not, we all need to understand our limits and boundaries. When you’re neurodivergent, you may not know you pushed yourself too far - until it’s too late!
Need help with some of the terms in this post?
😎 “Masking” or “Camouflaging“: a coping strategy that many neurodivergent people use to suppress aspects of themselves to appear neurotypical. It’s important to note that social masking is a tool many neurospicy folks use to keep themselves safe, and usually starts in childhood. 🥄 “Spoons” refers to Spoon Theory, which is a metaphor describing the amount of physical or mental energy that a person has for daily activities and tasks. It is a helpful tool for disabled and neurodivergent folks to describe their energy. 👋 “Stim” short for "self-stimulation” is a term used to describe repetitive behaviors or movements that people may engage in to help cope with emotions. It may include rocking, flapping hands or twirling.
If any of this resonates with you, try letting the “mask” slip a little!
Summary: they don't owe you shit. Get your head out of your entitled ass.
Daily reminder that fic writers do what they do for free and for their own enjoyment; creating a toxic environment around them, sharing public posts bashing their work because you don’t like a ship and pretending they write about what YOU like will poison this fandom, a fandom that exists only thanks to content creators like writers and artists.
Please, think before hitting the post button.
Join me on my daily fuck you to JK Rowiling 🖕🖕🖕
And for the last time, he tried to reach for the sun.
Leave me to the beasts and bears, I'd rather that the feast was theirs
They can't reserve neighbouring plots or request to be buried on top
Leave me for a day or two to make sure that I turn blue
For the first time since I drew breath, I'm undesirable again

july 31 - age - jegulus - 305 words
James and Regulus’s age gap had never truly mattered, only being two years apart.
The only person that had cared when they got together at fifteen and seventeen was James’s best friend and Regulus’s older brother, Sirius. He had insisted that Regulus was his baby and James was dishonoring him. Ridiculous but loveable, they had blown him off.
However, this year, James was turning thirty, and Regulus would not shut up.
“What will they say at work? You dating a mere twenty-something,” Regulus asked scandalized, a week before James’s birthday.
James eyed him, “You’re twenty-eight,” he rolled his eyes.
“You should be buying this, you’re my sugar daddy after all,” Regulus said, embarrassingly loud at the store checkout, three days before James’s birthday.
James’s eyes widened and shot to look at him, he swatted Regulus’s shoulder, receiving a laugh in response, “You hush,” he chastised.
Regulus smirked at him as he used James’s card to pay, “What do you really think I’d be with such an old man if not for his money?” James covered his face with his hands.
“The big three-oh, maybe you should date people in your decade,” Regulus prompted the day of James’s thirtieth birthday.
James had looked up from placing the grocery bag on the counter and raised his eyebrows at his husband, “Maybe I will,” he shrugged. He ignored the way Regulus’s eyes widened slightly and his jaw clenched.
In a moment, Regulus’s arms were wrapped around the back of James’s torso and he was pressing his head into James’s back, “No.” The word was firm and James couldn’t help but laugh.
He spun around to place his hands on Regulus’s cheeks and looked into his eyes, “You’re such an idiot.” He watched Regulus’s face morph into false outrage before James kissed it away, grinning into his husband’s lips.
Hello,👋
I'm Abdelrahman, 22 years old. My journey has been marked by loss and resilience. When I was 18, my father passed away from COVID-19. Determined to build my own future, I pursued an education in multimedia technology, balancing my studies with work to cover my expenses. I was preparing to establish my home and life.
A few days later, I was hit by a missile in this previously destroyed house
However, the war in Gaza, especially in the north, brought devastating tragedy. My home, university, job, and family were all destroyed in the conflict. While my family moved to the south, I was in the north, facing famine and moving from place to place, trying to survive.
Our street used to be lively and full of people, but it is no longer like that.
I have witnessed countless difficult and painful scenes while escaping death multiple times. In northern Gaza, life is reduced to a cycle of fleeing from danger and searching for food amidst the rubble of destroyed homes.
Our house that sheltered my entire family
Now, my dream is to travel abroad with my mother and sister to continue my education and develop my practical skills. For the past eight months, I have been unemployed, focusing on self-improvement and hoping for a better future.
My mother: the princess whom we strive to make happy and satisfy. ❤️️
This is where your kindness and generosity can make a profound difference. Your support will help me rebuild my life and continue my education. It will provide us with the opportunity to escape the cycle of danger and destruction, and to work towards a future filled with promise and potential.
I am humbly asking for your help in raising funds to cover the costs of travel, education, and basic living expenses as we strive to start anew. Every contribution, no matter the size, brings us one step closer to safety, stability, and success.
With deepest gratitude,
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for considering my plea. Your support means more than words can express. Together, we can turn a story of loss into a journey of hope and resilience.
With deepest gratitude,
Abdelrahman
