So this is definitely the first morning where I have woken up confidant in my abilities to not cry during the day.

Because I’m going to look ATTRACTIVE while I’m in Amsterdam.


and I’ve been sort of reeling in the fact that my legs are gorgeous ever since, so I am going to talk about them. Feel free to skip this post, people.
My legs are the sort that are big-boned and chubby and thick and by no means long or lithe. And I really didn’t like them for a really long time—like, I exclusively wore pants for like 3 years, even in the summer.
Except now I’m like, “Dude! My legs are so fat and cute! Dawww, look at themmmm they do this precious wiggly thing when I walk!”
And I feel like that’s a testament to body acceptance and the fucking of beauty standards and whatnot.
My new blog dedicated to student activism (obviously).
If you’re interested, please follow and share and submit and all that; I’d really appreciate it.
because I think it’s
a) something to be celebrated
b) something that deserves attention
and c) demonstrates our generation’s refusal to be apathetic, despite what State News columnists say.
If anyone wants to co-admin/teach me how to use Tumblr, please send me a message.
Rowling wrote Hermione to eschew stereotypes. She doesn’t end up with the hero; she is never there to function as Harry’s love interest. She prefers Arithmancy to Divination in school. Hermione is also a total badass, despite her prim and proper reputation. (…) So often, female characters are allowed to be aggressive or rebellious, but in exchange are stripped of any traditionally feminine qualities and instead are forced to pick up traditionally masculine traits. However, Hermione is never made to do that. Most notably, she is written to be highly logical AND emotionally expressive, a combination not commonly afforded to most of today’s leading ladies.Liz Feuerbach, The Women of The Harry Potter Universe (via writingadvice)
