hardly the best poster child for ‘reading is cool’

It’s

hard to pick a sin­gle thing to de­clare as mind bog­gling, and I think we of­ten de­fault to seek­ing shel­ter in pop cul­ture for a myr­i­ad of rea­sons, one be­ing it’s more man­age­able on a per­son­al scale to di­gest the on­go­ings of our me­dia and fa­vorite celebri­ties.

But twen­ty years ago, I’d nev­er have guessed J.K. Rowl­ing would have end­ed up be­ing su­per fuck­ing bonkers.

I read my most re­cent roy­al­ty cheques and find the pain goes away pret­ty quick­ly. pic.twitter.com/s4gl9rlqxl

This woman’s rags to rich­es saga is fas­ci­nat­ing to me be­cause she turned out to be one of the most in­suf­fer­able and nasty peo­ple on the plan­et.

And she is also now the world’s most fa­mous trans­pho­be – she can’t just. Shut. The fuck. Up.

She should just go away and en­joy her lu­di­crous wealth in her retro­fit­ted lux­u­ry cas­tle or wher­ev­er the fuck she lurks. Every time I see a pic­ture, she looks more and more like some ghoul­ish crea­ture that lives in a bog and drowns small an­i­mals.

 

Also,

here is an an amaz­ing YouTube video that is long but is an ex­cep­tion­al­ly well done take­down of why the en­tire se­ries is more or less bull­shit and com­plete­ly falls apart if you ex­am­ine it even just a lit­tle more close­ly:

The de­pic­tion of gob­lins, slav­ery, the slaves, race, Har­ry him­self, ne­olib­er­al­ism as a theme is wo­ven through­out the en­tire se­ries.

Har­ry Pot­ter was an ass­hole rich kid. He bought out the en­tire sweet trol­ly and then didn’t give any to the rest of the kids on the train ex­cept Ron.

Daniel Rad­cliffe tho – what a fan­tas­tic hu­man be­ing.
