White allies and white leftists and liberals need to read this.
In regards to posts about racism or intersectionality with race involved you MUST listen. Not respond. LISTEN
What I have seen so many white “allies” do is add onto posts (my own included) to put their own thoughts and opinions. In some cases take the words of the original poster and try to “translate” what is being said to other white people.
You are ACTIVELY taking away the voices of poc and speaking over them when you do this. When you tack on your own personal anecdotes or try to to give a definition of what a person or color is saying you are in the simplest of ways insulting their intelligence

What made you guys first read Harry Potter?
I first read it because a girl I liked was a fan and I wanted to impress her 🙃 didn’t work, but now I’m stuck in this fandom heh
Why is it always ‘queer people are projecting their identities onto characters’ and never ‘straight people are presuming that their identity is the default’?
Reblogged, refreshed my page, forgot I reblogged this, saw this again, was about to reblog it, noticed that it was me that reblogged it, reblogged anyways
reblog if what jkr says is no longer canon to you
Harry Potter Rewrite: Help!
I’ve been outlining more or less what I want the final result for my Harry Potter rewrite to look like but I’m stuck on two outcomes of Hari’s childhood:
NOTE: I have a headcanon in which the Potters are Indian, so James names his son Hari. I think I mentioned this before, if I didn’t, feel free to ask about it.
Petunia’s marriage starts falling apart when Lily dies.
Vernon didn’t let her go to her sister’s funeral because he was sure that the place would be crawling with “freaks”. Even if Petunia begged, he would still prevent her from going.
Vernon made nasty comments about Lily and James’ death, saying that they’re two less freaks to worry about.
Eventually Petunia leaves her husband and moves back in with her parents (who are alive in this version).
Petunia decides to go to college, a decision supported by her parents since they promised to help her financially and with the boys.
She studies to become an English teacher.
She loves her job. Also, she might fall in love with the History teacher.
She remarries, and it’s a man who treats her right and is good with the boys.
Both boys are treated equally while with her.
Dudley and Hari get along well. Although whenever Dudley returns from his weekends at his father’s, they fight a lot.
Hari grows up knowing he’s a wizard and knowing (more or less, because Petunia didn’t have all the details) what had happened to his parents.
Many more…
Remus, along with several other people who believed Sirius was innocent, start protesting and putting pressure on the Ministry so that they can give Sirius a proper trial.
Sirius is renamed innocent.
Dumbledore still refuses to hand Hari over to them, even though they were the rightful guardians of the child.
The last straw is when Dumbledore casually corrects them and says that Hari’s name has been changed to Harry.
They whitewashed his name. They were livid.
Remus and Sirius, along with some handpicked friends to help them, manage to kidnap Hari.
They take him to Wales, further away from Remus’ former home. They cast an insane amount of spells to hide themselves from Dumbledore. They were untraceable.
Other than the protections needed, they lived a muggle life.
They have other children (the names I’m still working out), there’s five kids in total.
Two of those children are werewolves, attacked at a young age by another wolf pack that’s not Fenrir Greyback. They—Remus, especially—wanted to bring them comfort when he found out about them.
Hari lives in a loud, chaotic household in the middle of nowhere.
Lyall Lupin eventually moves in with them because Remus worried for his father—the man was old and alone.
And many more…
NOTE: The outcome of the votings will determine the overall plot of Hari’s era. Choose wisely, what do you want to see?
“you dont get to like the harry potter series because jk rowling sucks” correction: you dont get to monetarily support the harry potter series or fawn over jk rowling because jk rowling sucks. you have permission from me, a mixed trans person, to interact with the media, just recognize the bullshit and we’re good.
jk rowling doesnt like it when you make her characters trans. she doesnt like it when you throw the racism out and replace it with a more thoughtful worldbuild. she doesnt like it when you make the characters interested in actual institutional reform.
and i say: go for it.
make it queer, make it antifascist, make it intersectional, improve it, knowing that jk rowling hates that. be my fucking guest.
do not do her the courtesy of banishing yourself from her universe. by all means, be involved, and keep harry potter trans. she doesnt want harry potter to be trans. and thats why you should do it.

SOMEONE TO STAY; Epilogue.
Part of my rewrite series, starting from the Marauders’ Era. More is coming soon.
❛ There’s a dream that used to hold Remus Lupin hostage during his darkest hours . . . ❜
It’s finally here! After months of announcing my work in progress, and years of fixing and outlining the Harry Potter world, I have finally posted the epilogue for what is sure to be a great journey, I hope you’ll show some love and support! Any feedback, comments, advices are welcome!
The Epilogue is very short — it’s meant to be, the rest of the chapters will go from 2,000-ish words and, if the inspiration strikes, more.
WATTPAD. AO3. 
Special thanks to @fen1s for being my beta reader!
BRING IT ON

unsurprising, indeed ┐( ˘_˘)┌
Am I throwing whatever JKRoach wrote about werewolves out the window for the sake of my fic? Yes, yes I am.
