    I’m the core demographic, I grew up with the books and a lot of friends are fans of the franchise so I do see a lot of stuff related to HP. I always post these kind of “memes” so my friends can see them and I tell them to stop giving money to JK Rowling at every mention of HP they make



  • I’m reading “don’t let him in” by Lisa Jewel, it’s great so far, very intriguing (I also recommend “none of this is true” by the same author)

    Last week I read “the road to tender hearts” by Annie Harnett and it was very moving. It touches very hard topics with a splash of humor to make it easier to digest

    I also recommend anything by TJ Klune. His books are very wholesome, sometimes I just want an easy reading where everything is solved with hugs and love

    I love HP and they were a big part of my life, made me enjoy reading and helped me a lot with English (and British) vocabulary. I still enjoy the books and movies that I already own from time to time but I cannot see myself consuming anything new knowing that it will give money directly to Rowling’s pockets to fund his trans hating organizations

    My PC didn’t support boot from CD, so I had to use about 6 WinXP floppies just to load the necessary drives to install from the CD. Good times

    I think we also had the Win 95 and 98 installallers somewhere although I learned how to do it when upgrading from 98 to ME
