I’m sorry, I didn’t mean it was your intention to enact sex fantasies. I meant I think I misunderstood where you were coming from re: dystopian HP. Not that HP canon is a dystopia (though others have argued that here, I believe, erroneously), but that you would be willing to have a dystopia-like HP theme park?

I suppose I misunderstood your intention. If nothing else, HP isn’t historical either. Have a great day.

A futuristic or parallel society in which we’ve created sentient robots that we kill and rape for fun and that will rise up against us sounds dystopian to me. Dystopia is “our world gone bad,” especially in the service of cautionary tale.

I don’t really see HP as a dystopia in the classic sense of the term, but a theme park where you could take place in HP activities would definitely be awesome.

Magic and dark themes =/= (necessarily) dystopia. Dystopia is characterized as a perverse world of totalitarian regime or complete breakdown of society, often used as a counterpoint or a cautionary tale against problems we face or could face in the real world. See Hunger Games, 1984, Children of Men, The Road, etc.

Robin Hood! You get to shoot arrows, steal from the rich, give to the poor, and hang out with merry men and women.

Dystopian though?

He basically said he only casts non-white people if they fit into some racist trope he needs in his movie.

I didn’t know UNTIL THIS ARTICLE that she wasn’t singing about how they would get along like Starbucks lovers. It’s Taylor Swift so a Starbucks reference just made sense to me.

I don’t believe you for a second. 

SCRUB behind your ears with whatever skin/hair soap is available. Your earfolds can collect all kinds of dirt, skin cells, and oil.

I wash my face last so I can be sure no pore-clogging conditioner sticks around.

The content of the yelling certainly matters. “Don’t run with that knife!” is OK yelling. “You’re worthless and pathetic!” is not.

“that”

I can tell whether you’re being facetious or obtuse, but:

I just realized Katy Perry has an AMAZING hairline. Is that a weird thing to say.

That must be an old Google Maps picture cause my map says the pool trash has grown.

She also potentially took a job from a black woman when she became the president of the NAACP after lying on her application that she was (part) black.
