You’d think, but I live in the UK and cons and cosplay aren’t as much a big thing here. People tend to limit their cosplay to ‘defined events’. Myself and a group of friends cosplayed at the midnight showing of the last HARRY POTTER movie, expecting a massive cosplay turnout.... Nope. We were literally the only ones.…

LOL yeah. Although I only spoil people if they ask. Otherwise I keep it to myself. I’m not interested in whether or not OTHERS know, all I care about is that I know.

I don’t understand why Japan seem so comparatively calm about all this.... Regardless of how they may or may not feel about the US, why do they seem so ‘chill’ about the fact that North Korea could obliterate Japanese people with a tiny miscalculation or faulty ordnance? Help me understand? Are they secretly freaking…

As someone who HATES surprises and CONSTANTLY spoils herself for EVERYTHING, it’s become a bit of a compulsion for me - I always flip to the end of a book to find out how it ends; I always looks up spoiler-y episode recaps for shows that air in America before they air here in the UK. I embraced the GoT Season 7 leaks…

Oh what a shallow and vain species we are...

Oh yeah. Ditto. The repeated phrase just took me out of the rhythm she’s built. But then perhaps that’s the point? To keep the listener off-balance?

So, regardless of whether these emails are real or not, I have the following thoughts:

he went rouge

I love Goldberg machines.... I find them relaxing. The commentator though, he was getting well excited! LOL

Oh yeah, tightly curled hair is not an exclusively PoC trait - I’ve seen many MANY ‘white’ people with frizzy, ‘afro-like’ NATURAL hair - most commonly people with red or ginger hair.

I actually quite enjoyed sleuthing out the mystery, but the rape was so unnecessary. Fucking manfeels. I’d have expected better from JKR tbh.

He is described in the books as ‘looking older than his thirty-five years’

His hair is described in the books as ‘Pube-like’ and ‘tightly curled against his scalp’ which certainly suggests a racial origin where hair characteristics are ‘tightly curled’, but I think the racism backlash of casting an actor of colour in a role the author has described as having ‘pube-like’ hair was probably the…

Do not speak of the travesty that is ‘Jack Reacher’ in my presence... I become She-Hulk-Levels of angry.

Ha ha haaaaaaaaa I know, right? I HATE MATTHEW!

See I pictured an uglier, more rugged, London-accented Gerard Butler

Ha ha haaaaaaaaaaa yeah, my thoughts exactly! I love the Strike novels too, but he’s supposed to be this rugged, dishevelled man with ‘Pube-like hair’. The ending of the last book DID leave me angry, but I don’t know if my reasons are the same as yours - I’ve never really ‘rooted’ for more than a good working…

I have..... feelings...... about this. I don’t quite know if I want to fuck it or bury it in a hole....

Is it true that there are/should be a specific number of pleats (I heard 7?) and that the pleats and the direction of wrapping, and the shoulder over which the Pallu is worn is always the left? Should the Pallu always be long enough to touch the ground? Or is the direction of wrapping and shoulder over which the Pallu…

True, but he’s a schemer with fingers in many pies - it could be an interesting persona to take on for spying purposes.
