The ones mentioned here are book plot holes and by extension became movie plot holes. The movies failed the books in my opinion, but that doesn’t mean that the books aren’t flawed themselves. There are many world-building or just plain logic holes. They infuriate me, but I love Rowling nonetheless.

Looking at these pics of crazy hair and costumes, I can only think of one thing: the Capitol is real, everyone.

This gif is my new favorite thing. And Lord knows... the scary menz?

I think there’s a super-fine, almost truly invisible mesh holding the whole dress together. If you look around the area where a jewel neckline would traditionally be, you can just barely see it.

I suppose my sample group is a bit limited—the handful of Brits in my grad program had all read at least Possession.

I think the pensieve is sort of a private thing that is only used in dire need. I think it belonged to Dumbledore, so he didn't really have reason to question Sirius. Or he knew that Sirius needed to be locked up so Harry could defeat Voldemort in the future, or something. Dumbledore is pretty wise in that way. Also,…

I re-read stuff all the time. Everything from the classics to Stephen King, whatever I really love. If it’s well written, you can get so much more out of it on later go-rounds!

I admire that second lady’s confidence. It takes a great deal to wear wings, that dress? and that hair. You go, stranger lady.

I reread Harry Potter constantly when I was a kid! I haven’t really reread books lately, but I did read the first two HP books around Christmastime, because I got into a bad car accident (well, bad for my now totaled car and my anxiety, but I’m physically okay) and I needed to read somehing familiar and comforting,…

Make sure he knows this could Be a deal breaker...changing old diapers, bathing her, etc

You know what I just noticed now, finally, after looking at this about twenty times tonight — Elena Lenina’s face is truly beautiful.

I suffer from impostor syndrome, too. I always feel like my writing is not good enough. I’m dreading my dissertation prospectus for just that reason. Good luck to you! And when all else fails, remember the immortal words of Stuart Smalley:

My one year anniversary is tomorrow. My beloved husband told me last night that we need to move in with his ailing grandmother because he doesn’t want to put her in a nursing home.

I passed the bar exam!! It was my second time taking it.

The sad thing about any addiction but which is particularly true of an eating disorder, is that you can’t help a person who doesn’t want help. An eating disorder is so much more than disordered eating, and, as someone who is currently in treatment, I can tell you that the pain of getting the help you need (especially…

How has no one posted this, yet?

I’d watch it. I would love to see her play a princess in a movie. The gowns, the beauty, the picturesque imagery, a worthwhile and worthy prince. I’m here for it.

Unless this person severely physically unwell—there’s nothing you can do.

She is a live action Disney princess.

Is the person’s life in danger? If not, I don’t think there’s much you can do except be a friend, and not be a trigger. Recovering is hard enough when you want to - it probably isn’t possible if you don’t. On the other hand, if they collapse, you call an ambulance. And if they start eating more and get refeeding…
