I sincerely believe that by 7th year Ravenclaws would just tell the door to their common room to fuck off and it would open for them

Q “Why is a raven like a writing desk?” 
A “You shouldn’t shove either up your arse.” 
“…Technically, yes.”

Imagine it, a poor First Year is waiting outside the common room, they can’t answer the riddle in a way to appease the eagle and must wait until someone else to answer it for them. It’s getting late, they’re starting to resign themselves to having to spend the night here. 

Suddenly, their saviour comes! It’s a seventh year! Back from a night finishing off their Araithmancy essay in the Library. They look angry, but our poor little first year squares their shoulders, waiting to see what will happen, and hope that they’ll keep the door open for them. 

The Seventh Year bangs the handle against the wall, and a slightly disgruntled voice asks the question again: “What is the truth?”

The Student Replies, “The Truth is that I am so fucking sick of all these mother fucking questions about stupid fucking topics like this you bloody fuck-witted bastard. Who in the name of Merlin’s saggy left testicle gives a fucking damn about all this shit anyway? I’ve been working my arse off in the library for the last seven hours now let me the fuck in or, truthfully, I’ll blast my way in and take you with me.”

The eagle knocker tutts, but allows the student entry anyway, and our little first year enters, eyes wide and in shock. They watch the seventh year go up to their bedroom, awe all over their face at their new hero. They did, indeed, learn something that day by waiting for someone to arrive, they learnt that swearing has a magic all of it’s fucking own, and that sometimes it is big and clever to use it. 

The only head canon I will ever accept. Its both perfectly witty and fantastically assholish

witty and fantastically assholish… pretty much quintessential ravenclaw traits right there

“What is the truth?” 

“THIS IS A STUPID FUCKING WAY TO REGULATE WHO GETS INTO THE TOWER.” 

*door opens*

If you put your blades in water, they will RUST. That rust is dangerous if it enters your body! Rust can cause things like tetanus which could possible lead to amputation or even death! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE DON’T DO THIS. THERE ARE OTHER ALTERNATIVES THAT CAN WORK, BUT PLEASE DON’T DO THIS. PLEASE REBLOG, THIS COULD SAVE A LIFE!

Although! Ice cubes themselves can be a viable way to subvert the urge to self harm.

J. Skyler, a trans woman of color, writer, and speaker, has come up with a concise hashtag for signal boosting! Use #TransCrowdFund on both Twitter and tumblr to help boost visibility for your fundraisers or donation pages! I’m hoping to help set up a blog that would specifically reblog anyone using this hashtag, so please contact me or check the tag.

If you’re cis, and would like to help signal boost, please ask the trans person in question before using this hashtag.

This blog was created as a means to put these ideas into action. Please use the tag Trans Crowd Fund, as this blog will be checking that tag on a regular basis and reblogging as many posts as possible. We will also be taking submissions.

If any popular tumblr users would like to signal boost and help get the word out, that would be greatly appreciated (I tagged a few below, but everyone is encouraged to reblog)

Contrived Structures Nick Sellek

This series of photographs are of detailed models, embracing the contrived structures that surround us in our overdeveloped urban environments. They are close up, exaggerated studies of architectural components, severed from context to emphasise the absurdity of their design. The models are also intended to be displayed as freestanding objects, and to be viewed from all angles.
