i’m maybe buying stuff over the internet but it says the shipping estimate is like $60??? what??? i am buying four books it should not cost that much to get them to australia

remember when iphones were new and people figured out how to make a whale through text and the internet collectively lost its shit

does anyone else have an issue on 8tracks where it won’t play all of the songs in a list? not even that it skips over them or doesn’t load properly or whatever, it acts like they don’t exist, like the whole playlist is just the songs it played (repeat listens are exactly the same). i know there are more songs than what it’s playing bc 1. the listed number of tracks is much higher and 2. i listened to some of these before this started happening and it played all the songs then

bc i just listened to a 14-track playlist where only three songs played. that’s kind of disappointing.

I just realized that on the night Voldemort failed to kill Harry as a baby, there would have been three dead bodies in the Potters’s house in Godric’s Hollow. James’s, Lily’s and Voldemort’s. It never occurred to me before that Voldemort’s body would have had to be there too. But remember, he was ’ripped from his body’. The Voldemort who fled from Godric’s Hollow didn’t have a body, so the only logical conclusion is that it was left behind where he was defeated. Plus, his body being there would have been the only way other wizards could have understood that Voldemort had been defeated – proof to them that he was really gone (turns out he wasn’t really gone but they didn’t know that at the time).
It is rather scary to think of Sirius finding Lily’s dead body with Voldemort’s next to it and Harry still alive in the crib.

Not to break the depressing mood or anything but I do hope Sirius had the clarity of mind to give Voldy’s body a good kick in the face

Maybe Sirius kicked his nose off

no offense but support mentally ill people who hallucinate, who struggle with empathy, who have delusions, who are hypersexual, who have frequent mood shifts, who speak in ways you’re not used to, who behave in ways you can’t relate to, who have symptoms you consider “immoral” or “strange” and can’t help that fact

“Qing Lin, 47, a manicurist who has worked on the Upper East Side for the last 10 years, still gets emotional when recounting the time a splash of nail polish remover marred a customer’s patent Prada sandals. When the woman demanded compensation, the $270 her boss pressed into the woman’s hand came out of the manicurist’s pay. Ms. Lin was asked not to return.

“I am worth less than a shoe,” she said.”

Guess it takes a major publication to validate what Asian and Latina working women have been saying for years now. This isn’t just prevalent in NYC; Boston, Virginia as well as other places are included.
