Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.
Our Rules:
-
Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.
-
No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.
-
Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.
-
Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.
-
No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.
Sister Communities:

A video essay I watched pointed out that Harry Potter's chief conflict is between old conservatism (the good guys (tm)) and new conservatism (the bad guys (tm)), and I will never ever unsee it.
Uh no. The conflict would have been between old conservatism (pure blood rule) and new conservatism (include muggle born). It's like one of the main topics of the story. The main baddies are declining aristocrats afraid of losing their position and power.
