I have a headcanon that Hermione insists her children attend some primary muggle schooling before Hogwarts, just as she had done. Now, imagine Arthur Weasley attending his grandchild’s science fair, being the ultra proud grandfather….and yet also completely geeking out over absolutely EVERYTHING.
Canon
“That is a volcano, that is a VERY SMALL VOLCANO, how - young lady, how did you make this? Baking soda and food coloring? MARVELOUS!”
the kids would love him.
Never have I ever loved anything more than I love this
All the muggle teachers would think he was being so adorable, “pretending” not to know how potato batteries and mini-volcanoes work, fawning over the hard work the kids did on even the simplest the projects. And he comes every year, because after the kids have aged out (”gone on to some boarding school in Scotland,” the teachers say over bad coffee in the break room, “they didn’t seem the type”), he gets an honorary invitation to the fair every year, because he never stops making the kids feel smart and good.
“And this airy-o-plane, it flies by means of a… rubber band? Did I hear that correctly? No magic at all? Doesn’t flap its wings like a bird? MARVELOUS! What an ingenious method of flight!” *looks around* “You, sir! With the ribbons! This child deserves one of those prizes!”
“Do you want to talk about it or be distracted from it” is honestly the best thing you can say to me when I say im sad/in pain etc.
this is really good advice to say to anyone who is upset
Alsooo may I add: “do you want advice or do you just want to vent?” Is also good to add because often unsoliticited advice can further hurt someone who really just wanted a listening ear.
Is it just me or is the reason that Eartha Kitt’s original version of “Santa Baby” is better than all the rest (other than the fact that Eartha Kitt is inimitable) the fact that Eartha was actually singing to a sugar daddy that she was playfully calling “Santa” and was dead serious about all the things she was asking for (…and Michael Buble was really trying to sing to Santa)
wait do people genuinely think that santa baby is about santa??? i’ve known that it was about a sugar daddy since i was like 11 i
Michael Buble doesn’t know what a sugar daddy is and that’s the flaw that will finally kill him
this whole thing is way too good to be giffed you need to expirience it
There are so many things that are TOP quality about this. The business with the mic rope. The bounding across the stage like an excited puppy or a newsie. The Voice™️ that is so synonymous with John, you know, the voice of a guy who sells ice cream at the soda fountain in the 50’s. The analogy itself.
It’s all so beautiful, such peak humor and content.
Emmy Award Winning™️
I FOUND IT AGAIN.
Here’s the “horse loose in a hospital” bit. Good news, it has closed captioning.
“I DONT REMEMBER THAT IN HAMILTON.” OMG
God I’ve heard so much about this guy and this is my first time actually watching one of his bits. He’s as funny as y’all make him out to be tbh
I had a dream about a version of Snow White where she’s actually like 12 and the dwarves basically adopted her it was basically Snow White and Her 7 Short Dads
When she got poisoned by the Queen the dwarves all gave her one last kiss on the forehead to say goodbye before her funeral and that was the true love’s kiss she needed to wake up, because her dads all loved her very much
Anyway Snow White is public domain so there’s literally nothing stopping me from publishing this
Concept: elves who fully fail to grasp the difference between their lifespan and that of humans. Coming back to a town like “wtf this shop was JUST HERE last decade years ago I don’t understand” “what do you mean Philipp isn’t here this is his house I just visited him 50 years ago” “I’m sorry this potion is HOW MUCH I should be able to get TWELVE for that price!”
Elves still using human slang from 100 years ago because this is how the young people speak these days, yes?
Elves with a smug sense of superiority because their clothing is appropriate trendy who just happened to revisit humans when the fashion had cycled back around.
Elves apologizing profusely because the item they gave a human hero was passed down through three generations and then broke, it lasted less than a century they have embarrassed themselves and their kinfolk with such a shoddy gift.
Elves who commisioned a human craftsman than return to the shop 50+ years later confused that the item has long since been sold to someone else, or hidden away
This is a comic I did for CALM (Campaign Against Living Miserably) who are a charity for preventing male suicide. They provide great mental health resources and a suicide prevention hotline. There is so much pressure to be happy over Xmas- it’s okay if you don’t feel extremely merry, and there are always people you can reach out to <3 <3 <3
why limit yourself between choosing between a pretty feminine aesthetic or a dark one? if persephone can be the goddess of spring & queen of the underworld at the same time so can you
