here’s the stuff my mama taught me: there’s iron to bind the fae, throw salt over one shoulder and never wait for a man to fix you - get AAA but know how to change a tire, use tape or a knife or running water to open jars, stand on whatever you need to in order to reach the top shelf or else just don’t put things up there, and never put your man above your friends or soon you’ll have neither, baby
i wrote you love notes in sugar packets, told her i was so crazy for you i’d cut my hair off she said god i hope not i tore open the jar of my body and carved out whatever home you’d lick up, crawled on knees and changed myself until i was flat by the roadside, hated the cliche but called the devil to me
my mother picked me up off the kitchen floor. she said: here’s where to put the spoons but maman my heart is in his hands and he is a vice and i am the moon put salt on watermelon and brown sugar in tuna but maman i taste nothing and this world is nothing without him here’s how to fold a napkin but maman i can fold into nothing but him and him and him
she shows me how to sew. how to leave out milk. how to set a smile.
she presses the handle of a knife into my palm. “And when all else fails, my love,” she says, “Chop something up and move on.”
I dearly wish that people would view their bodies as they view flowers…

Dear someone,
Let’s make this world better. Let’s be polite and kind to other people. Let’s care about nature and ecology. Let’s give aid to sick people and people that need help. Let’s fight for the rights of those who do not get them. Let’s choose love every day.
Together we can make our future amazing. Just do good deeds and actions, even little. They all matter.
Sincerely,
Anonymous person
Aw, this is cute.
Omg I’ve just found your art and I just wanted to pop in and say that your Regulus is EXACTLY how I imagine him. Love your style, keep it up 💕
thank you!! taking the chance to talk about an hc of mine about reggie getting in the quidditch team:
james and sirius joined the gryffindor team at the beginning of their second year, and since they were already promising players, the slytherins had to think of a strategy.
team captain emma vanity decided to ask the youngest black, still a first year but well skilled on the broom, to join the team and play against his brother.
despite being scared shitless reg said yes because:
1) he loved flying
2) slytherin’s youngest seeker?? cool asf
3) he missed his brother
3) emma vanity was like a big sis to everyone
Wtf???

oppression isn’t generational and trying to frame politics as “the old people are wrong and the young people are right” erases the fact that there are old people who have been fighting the good fight for decades and the fact that there are young people who are literally nazis
