Miriam Margolyes worried about adults still obsessed with Harry Potter

"Gosh, what's their first night of fun going to be like?" 😏

edit- thought she was referring to their honeymoon lol

edit edit- based on my understanding of “HP adult,” I am an HP fan, but not an HP adult.

But joy is joy, and why would you want to risk stealing that from someone? 💚

they can stan anything and immerse themselves in the fantasy whenever they can, as long as it's good and it doesn't fills the pockets of a bigot creator, but they prefer to be oblivious or excuse her because their hedonistic nostalgia is more important than any critical thinking

You are not morally superior to Harry Potter fans. You fill the pockets of criminal corporations everyday of your life, and you can make small changes to avoid it, but you dont. You are typing from a phone made by slave child labor, and you buy products made by them too.

I remember one time being in a Tesla Uber, and the owner of the car was complaining about how much he hates his car, and that he wants to sell it because Elon is bad! But I reminded him that all car companies owner are like Elon, if not worse.

This doesnt mean we shouldnt do anything about i, but hating on Harry Potter fans, and acting morally superior is not what we should do.

Im fine with making fun of Disney adults as a joke, but most people are doing it in a serious way, and judging them in a condemning way.

Of course there are always different levels and degrees to bullying and discrimination but none of them should be condoned or shrugged off.  Her comment is unnecessarily alienating a group of people who are completely harmless people and do not deserve to be made fun of.  The more we normalize that kind of the stuff, the more tolerance we build towards it, and the worse it can get.  
 

you’re making it sounds like it’s our fault for our existence and we should have to expect and just deal with people belittling us for our interests 

Not letting your own happiness be taken by some bitch with an opinion isn't normalizing that opinion nor did I even remotely imply the people on the receiving end of annoying comments or outright hate are at fault

Not entirely sure how you came to either of those conclusions after reading my post

I just said drawing a parallel between "HP fans are a bit weird" and "gays deserve no rights" isn't really appropriate or accurate. It's like comparing a scuffed shoe to a broken spine

On the internet?

In the year 2024?

No way!

I refuse to believe this

you guys waking up each morning, logging in to a GGD, fighting constantly with lady Gaga avatars about charts, pop music, and some other shallow things, for the whole February you were at the hype train, then had meltdowns when nothing happened, you searched for clues in her lipstick and you cry like babies when you get a warning point because u were assholes in a pop forum but yeah.. a harry potter theme wedding is the weird thing? 

And what about it?

(I say, planning my dual space/Michael Jackson themed wedding)

The theme of my wedding was "just let us sign the f-cking paper and let us go to the beach already"

I read "prescriptions" instead of "conscription" and got excited about the free drugs and Gaga as our VP

Congrats on losing my vote

I don't give weight to either the judgement or the response to the judgement, I'm too dead inside to truly care one way or the other

Part of me actually legit wants a big celebration. I never even got birthday parties growing up so let me rent Times Square for my wedding

Me waiting for my turn to descend the stairs and sing my vows:
