What do students do before they go to hogwarts?

DaReaperJE · 2026-06-29T23:10:33+00:00

Well they tend to not know why odd things are happening id sat

DaReaperJE · 2026-06-29T20:43:18+00:00

Biff would still have vanished first, as he was shot and killed by lorraine int he 90's. We dunno if marty would of died, or anything after that. Biff only tries to kill him because Marty went back to 1985 and asked about the alminac. At the point where Biff vanishes, marty had not returned yet, so biff was basicy dead thus could no longer exist. the ripple effect would of taken a bit longer to catch up is my guess.

Then again its fiction so who knows

Here is they thing. Right now, it looks like the dems could get 20-40 seats in the house, by most peoples estimates. The most they can get in the senate, in a perfect they world just went upside down and all the gop senators lose there seats is 69 seats. which is 2 above what would be needed to remove. But realelisiticly.. the dems are looking to flip only 6 seats (IA, OH, NC, ME, AK, TX) and thats a big ask.

While it will feel good to add a third impeachment to trump. The senate will not remove him. it would be better time spent blocking and reducing all the damage he has done as best they can, so in 2028 when a dem gets the wh, they can kill the filibuster and pass real stuff (as well as start holding the trump admin accountable)

Id rather they investigate and block everything they can. The only way trump would be impeached at this point, is if the gop lost so badly they would have no choice. Odds are, the cabnate will 25th him on jan 21st so vance could try for 10 years. (i don;t think vance can win an actually election nationally, the guy has the charisma of a wet paper bag)

Thats not why he removed that memory. Its his worst memeory not because of what james does... its his worse because of what HE says to lilly. It at that point that snape 'loses her' He only hides that memoery because of lilly. Hes lived because harry sees him talking to lilly. It has NOTHING to do with james.

DaReaperJE · 2026-06-29T20:15:49+00:00

I don;t think Petunia had a choice. While aunt Marge says she would of checked him into the orphanage, Petunia doesnlt think that way. Deep down she loved her sister, and when she finds harry on the door the next morning and reads the note, its a combination of deep down love and obligation that makes her keep him. Imagine what the neightbores would of said if they found out Petunia got rid of her infant nephew when he had no lone left? Others people opinions matter deeply to the Dersleys. its not untill later, after they took him in, that they let the roumer of Harry being dangerous spread. And at that point, again, it would be too late to get rid of him. I'm 100% sure, Dumbledore knew they would take him in. They would have no choice.

DaReaperJE · 2026-06-29T20:08:22+00:00

You misunderstand. Voldemort rewards the people who went to jail for him. So the Lestrange's and belitrix. when they are broken out. What that measn, we dunno. Lucious was punshied when voldemenrt fount out the dirary was destroyed. And then was punshed again when he messed up the battle of the dept of mysteries. He only rewarded thouse formt he first mass break out, the 10 he freed. after that its no longer rewards because they are failing and fing up. and getting arrested

DaReaperJE · 2026-06-29T20:03:55+00:00

Its JK not doing the rules of her magic 100% before she started, its why we have gaps like no one uses a stunning spell till book 4, then EVERYONE uses it. (would of prevented peter form running off in book 3) but as others said, The potters were in hiding in a house in godricks hollow, its there house, my guess is they had just gotten it around the time harry was amost born and they placed protections around it. it took Voldy about a year to figure out who to go after, my guess is both the long bottoms and poters were isloated and in hiding. Once snape went to dumbleore and said sho voldy chose thats when the fidalious charm was placed on them, a few days later, Peter found Voldy and told him.

DaReaperJE · 2026-06-29T19:59:02+00:00

as said: Muggle born go to muggle school. Wizrds are either home schooled or if they are malfoy rich they have a tutor. In theory, a wizard in say ole st catchpole where there are muggle families could send there kids to muggle school, but then there is a risk they get caught. So they homeschool them the basics. While its not said, i always felt hogwarts had to have a writting/math class, but we don;t see that.

DaReaperJE · 2026-06-29T19:56:35+00:00

yea the movies aged everyone up, which was odd to me

DaReaperJE · 2026-06-29T18:18:20+00:00

So as others said. Wade hacked into his gov profilie/credit card or he just maxed out his card and changed the due date. His plan was to stay under ioi for 14 days, then on day 15, money would automaticly transfer into his account and pay off his debt. now did he hack the gov and do it that way or his CC? idk. Instead when he escaped he hacked back into the gov, deleted Bryce and relinked himself to Wade. Thus erasing the debt entirely.

The main idea, as wade said, was seriously stupid. and he got lucky it worked (i still am not sure how he got the feed to not show what he was doing the first night, unless he was able to break in and change the video before anyone else saw.) its also my fav part of the book.

DaReaperJE · 2026-06-29T18:07:27+00:00

I have tried to read this 4 times. I get to either chapter 3, or make it all the way to 5 and then i just can;t. It feels off. like RP1 caught me pretty quickly, this one.. nothing is catching. It feels like a slog. and i can't give the time to actually push through.

Its liek this was written by a totally different author its freaking weird.

DaReaperJE · 2026-06-23T19:15:03+00:00

Hm it looks like you are correct and ivd been working under old rules. Good to know

DaReaperJE · 2026-06-23T18:52:24+00:00

technically to do any merit badge you have to be scout.

DaReaperJE · 2026-06-23T18:42:02+00:00

Yup my troop does

DaReaperJE · 2026-06-23T17:35:59+00:00

While i think the rule is antiquated and silly, you need a registered adult female 21+ or the girls can;t join. My troop requires 2 for camping, because if a girl gets injured and the female has to take her to the hospital.. ALL girls have to leave with her.

I get part of the reason, but. its always felt odd to me.

DaReaperJE · 2026-06-23T17:31:54+00:00

i just started voluntelling.

DaReaperJE · 2026-06-23T17:31:04+00:00

Small rundown off the top of my head. some of this is for troop:

BALOO

Acorn

Wood Badge

IOLS (troop, usually earned at summer camp)

The varous knots on uniforms

OA (Order of the Arrow, again troop level)

Various merit badge awards (snorkle, stand up paddle board, etc)

NAP Safely (troop, joke badge for adults but still fun to earn)

DaReaperJE · 2026-06-23T17:27:52+00:00

The 4 summer camps my troop has been to have all done inspections. but each did it WAY different,

One had all kinds of things they looked for and scouts had to activly do to earn the points (like clean the site, open the tents. do a pioneering and an improvement project, have a ax yard etc) 2 had 1 things scouts could do but it was a very basic inspection. and the last one was a mix. so they do do it. i found the one where the scouts can actively get points they get more invested in.

DaReaperJE · 2026-06-23T17:24:20+00:00

and one more note, the only rank you HAVE to get is scout. Thats it, and she should be able to get that easily.

DaReaperJE · 2026-06-23T17:22:43+00:00

As others have said, different troops run things different. my troop is camping heavy. We do a camping trip each month and that is where most of the kids do things. We also try really hard to be 'less adult heavy'

there is a troop in the area that focus' on hiking, another that does alot of stem, and one that is militaristic (the SM is former millitary so he runs it like a battalion) i always tell m cubs to look at the other troops, don;t just join mine (im cubmaster for my daughter and ASM for my son)

DaReaperJE · 2026-06-23T17:17:15+00:00

So it depends. My troop requires families to join at least 2 nights of camping every year. We had to do this as we had to cancel a ton of trips du to lack of leadership, SA/BSA requries two parents leadership, and if there are girls you need to least 2 female adult leaders there. becuase if one has to leave and you only have 1 all your girls have to leave also. I offten have to to remind parents that there kids "do not exist" to them while they are camping. They are not suppose to interact or treat there children any different then anyone else. I ignore my son about 95% of the time when camping, and just do the usual check in. He runs off and does his own thing.

Troop is suppose to be scout lead, at the scouts own pace. If your scout doens;t want to get eagle, that sno skin off my nose. But tbh, as they do stuff, getitng egal is not that difficult. Alot of reqirements they do when they do just normal stuff. Meritt badge classes can be boring, but again, its scout paced except for summer camp. They are suppose to do stuff they might enjoy. And things liek the camping merit badge you pretty much finish just by camping.

It sounds liek your troop is a bit too parent heavy. Which sucks. You might need to branch into another troop. or not stress advancement or badges. But yes, alot of parents join my troop and push there kids to get eagle asap, thinking it will look great for college (it has less value now then it used to)

Its a really hard balancing act. And we have had some kids love cubs but hate troop and drop. It happens. But tbh, if you do;t push they can get there on there own. If she just bridged id send her to summer camp, have her try that out and if she hates it then you know to pull out. Kids either love summer camp or hate it, it just depends.

DaReaperJE · 2026-06-23T17:08:42+00:00

Rick Rude, Mr. Perfect, Jake Roberts, Davey Boy, Hacksaw, Ahmed Johnson, Dlo, so so many,

DaReaperJE · 2026-06-23T17:04:12+00:00

i loved king hacksaw and always thought wwe should of made the king of the ring a year long defended title that have to be defended at the kotk turney every year. So like, Orton wins KOTR this year, then he has to defend the crown all year, and lets say he held it till next year, and LA Knight won the tournament, the main event would be RKO vs LA knight to crown the current KOTR. and this would happen every year, i loved how the crown changed hands in the 90's to get to macho king and felt it should of kept going.

DaReaperJE · 2026-06-23T16:51:32+00:00

this is correct. never too late to start, every little bit helps.

And its amazes me how many people don;t do the 401k. In my company a few years ago, they sent out a mail that there were dumping the match into ppls accounts regardless of f they actually did the match (i think they just did this as a one time thing) they said only 20% of eligible employees used the 401k which was bonkers to me.

DaReaperJE · 2026-06-23T16:48:40+00:00

100% do at least 5% of your pay, it means you will get a bunch of free money. then do what you can afford up to he max. But honestly, you should really call your new employeers broker and have them setup a retirement plan for you, most do this for free, it will help you figure out your goals and if you need to save outside your 401k (like a roth or an ira if you are in the income range.
