I bet for the professors teaching Ravenclaws is like herding cats away from empty boxes.
Older Ravenclaws have finely honed the art of asking just the right argumentative questions to direct their teacher onto an entire-class-session-long tangent about something entirely irrelevant to the course material.
Can you imagine Ravenclaws trying to overhaul the entire school system with Muggle ideas. Trying to figure out how to best teach people, more concerned with how people learn than what they’re learning.
“Why do we force people to learn things they aren’t interested in, we should create our own curriculum.”
“We should figure out everyone’s learning styles.”
“We need smaller class sizes.”
“No, no, wait, guys, what if we eliminated grades entirely.”
Yeah, Ravenclaws would drive Hermione up the wall.
“Fire the whole staff and start over.”
“Present more opportunities for seventh-year independent research!”
“Why hasn’t anyone made magically modified calculators yet?”
“Why are we still using quills and parchment when pencils exist? Please explain.”
“I don’t want to enter the work force directly after school, what are my options for higher education? Is there magical university?”
“I don’t feel confident in my professor’s qualifications because she’s teaching me astrology but doesn’t know any facts about space beyond about the year 1764.”
Muggleborn Ravenclaws forming rogue study groups to teach other students chemistry and algebra and English literature, just imagine.
“They call this the astronomy tower but we’re learning about the effects of Venus when it’s in the fourth house and the professor doesn’t believe Neptune is a planet I am really concerned.”
“Okay but what’s the oxidation state of Mandrake root in pepperup potion?”
“But can you apply differential calculus to arithmancy or not?“
“The portrayal of the witches in Macbeth has some pretty troubling implications, also, I don’t think their potion would have actually done anything.”
I can’t not reblog this holy frick
Hogwarts students reading Discworld.
Ravenclaw students bringing the wonders of the modern world to school. Such as a fucking flashlight or a typewriter, since all electronics die when they get near hogwarts Honestly, I’ve always wondered why wizards, the more “advanced” ones lives in a world of candles, quill and parchment, and fireplace heating
Imagine the students working a way around the enchant that kills electronics and also figuring out a spell to keep the electronics fully charged and posting hogwarts selfies and making vines and some of the other wizards are amazed because despite that photographs move, they still don’t make noise. Only paintings do.
Imagine them making a youtube channel dedicated to interviewing various paintings and ghosts and peeves just uses it as an opportunity to jumpscare.
This is actually pissing me off. It has begun to ruin halloween for me knowing people don’t spell check. Things are massed produced in factories and sent out for sale to the public spelt spoopy, doo, and creppy. Like what the actual fuck. My computer even automatically changes spoopy to spooky. I mean, come on. The best holiday season and businesses don’t even care enough about it to spell check the items they’re gonna sell. Fuck this shit.
yes, my favorite. trans characters played by cis people 👌👌👌👍👍👍👍
What if I told you
You do not need to be transgender to portray a trans character effectively
Because it is fucking callled ACTING
dont fucking follow me lol
There are so many able trans actors out there and yet all of our roles are played by cis people. It’s getting real fucking old T b h
true tho. chose me. i am trans and like acting and am cute enough to be shown on a large screen
im still excited for this tho
OKAY as much as I wish there was a trans boy playing this role can we all just sit back and fucking admit that FINALLY we’re getting some sort of seemingly valid trans boy representation in a transgender spike that’s been focused on trans women?
i couldn’t care less if the actor is trans or not i’m fucking stoked for this movie FINALLY SOME DECENT REPRESENTATION FOR TRANS MEN!!!
If they have a trans man in the movie, he would have to go off hormones for long periods of time and that would fuck with the whole transitioning process. medically, it’s actually better to not use a trans man.
