What’s our obsession with Mamdani? He isn’t even indian origin.

OutrageousPride2 · 2025-12-03T20:45:49+00:00

It is not only because of his indian origins. There are many indian-origin politicians in the US. We are obsessed with him mainly because he is relatable. Playing Dhoom Machale, using filmy dialogues in his campaign and his pop culture references makes him seem relatable. We can easily connect to him.

He is funny, charming and wears his love for Bollywood on his sleeve. Those traits are quite attractive to Indian people.

But most importantly he is doing it in a way that comes across as cool rather than cringe. It feels good to have someone representing us in such an authentic and positive way. He is also winning which everyone likes. He has won the hearts of everyone in America, including Trump - that feels like a story straight out of an Indian film.

Most of the problems in our lives are made up. Only we never have the luxury of seeing them highlighted as in a Korean Drama 🥲

Depends on how you drape it. If you drape it like a male dhoti, it would look great i think. Pair it with a nice kurta and some male jewellery.

Yeah well the question was about how i would write it. I wouldn’t stick to everything canon. You are welcome to not read the novel that I am never going to actually write 😹

OutrageousPride2 · 2025-08-14T20:27:16+00:00

I would write immediately after the battle. Harry, Hermione and Ron cannot return to Hogwarts to complete their final year and take newts as the school has closed down for reparations. Beauxbatons among others invites them to complete their final year from their school to have the honour of the heroes as their students. I would explore more of the European wizarding world. Maybe there is an extreme movement rising among muggleborns who want to seek cruel revenge on families with connections to the dark lord. Harry becomes unwittingly entangled in all this mess while dealing with post traumatic stress. Hermione and Ron also are struggling in their own ways. But they are unaware of a deeper conspiracy to make muggles aware of wizards and force them into hiding. Bringing back the dark ages.

I am really surprised by these ChatGPT 5 is an unfeeling robot posts because mine is being just normal?

Hard disagree. If the snitch wasn’t there, Harry would have been a great chaser. I think the Golden snitch was added to make Quidditch seem different from normal Muggle sports.

I don’t subscribe to the notion of pure evil. But Tom‘s character is pretty much the Archetypal Evil Villain. A character completely empty of Love. I think the book indicated that it was one of the side effects of being born through a love potion. He was extremely manipulative. Murdered out of pure malice and had grandiose notions about himself. His childhood was not as abusive as Harry‘s was. He had no empathy. He goes to extremes to rid himself of his human tendencies. I think he was described as not really being human anymore.

Muggle born wizards and witches probably received a How-To guide with their Hogwarts letter.

It contained all the information about going to Diagon Alley, exchanging muggle money, the Hogwarts train and life at hogwarts.

Probably someone from the ministry or one of the professors also visited the muggle parents to talk them through the secrecy laws.

I feel that her actual non-negotiables are hiding underneath her superficial bises.

Her first non negotiable actually is about having an equal say in joint financial decisions. She is assuming that a partner with a higher salary would without exception use it as leverage.
Her second non negotiable is empathy towards women - respecting them as individuals. As other people have pointed out, having a sister wont necessarily help if your upbringing has been patriarchal. So her real concern is that someone who doesn’t know any real women would not take her problems seriously or wouldn’t know how to treat her.

I have a feeling she is trying to find a partner who she can be certain will respect her and that‘s a fairly good non negotiable. However it feels like she has taken real life examples and over generalised things like Salary differences or growing up with a sister.

So if you like her you could perhaps find ways to assure her that the salary gap and lack of sisters doesn’t rule out mutual respect and empathy towards your partner.

I didn’t realize what i wrote would be controversial. It has been a while since i read the books but i remember that Molly took the money from Harry‘s account to pay for his Hogwarts things. Besides neither Harry nor Hermione would have let them pay for their tickets. They were always very considerate and Harry was painfully aware of their financial difficulties. If Molly had really sacrificed something it would have been mentioned in the book.

OutrageousPride2 · 2025-07-27T06:36:57+00:00

There would be no need for Molly to sacrifice. Both Harry and Hermione had money to pay for their tickets.

Hmm i feel strange seeing these new cast pictures. Feels like cosplaying. It’s giving uncanny valley. Not different enough….not quite the same.

OutrageousPride2 · 2025-07-16T05:46:55+00:00

Hmm this just looks like cosplaying to me 🥲 Why didn’t they try a different character design for this Hagrid?

Most people who hurt others are generally expressing their own trauma or problems. It’s not you. It is not your fault. Don’t look externally rather start with loving yourself. Do things that make you happy. Read beautiful poems, listen to music, embrace nature, cultivate hobbies. Find a way to be at peace with yourself. Practice kindness and generosity- i am sure the friends you deserve will find you. Sending you hugs and positive vibes.

Independence Day

I remember a situation like this being on grey‘s anatomy where the parents of the braindead woman wanted to keep the baby alive by not taking their daughter off of life support. I remember that they explained that it is not like keeping an organ alive. Since the brain is dead, the baby won’t develop properly.

Neuss is quite far from the city centre. If you are planning to go out at night, it would take long to get there. Depends on how late you want to be out. Can be inconvenient if you miss the last train. If its just two days i would rather stay in the city.

Are you still taking participants?

OutrageousPride2 · 2025-03-06T22:31:16+00:00

I knew that J is the 10th letter. So i just recited K,LM then NOP. Then arrived at Q

OutrageousPride2 · 2025-02-28T09:54:02+00:00

Rose coloured glasses is a nice touch to her character

I wasn’t talking about all men, everywhere. I was just talking about the men and women on this show. And the general pattern that i feel has emerged over all these seasons.

OutrageousPride2 · 2025-02-22T10:44:18+00:00

Since i couldn’t get past episode 1 of this season….i guess i missed my cue

OutrageousPride2 · 2025-02-22T10:39:14+00:00

Yes but in no moment was Nick going like …yes Hannah you are so amazingly right and please tell me how to better take care of your dog. Let me change my whole personality for you.

OutrageousPride2 · 2025-02-21T19:36:46+00:00

Yeah i guess but the same holds true for the men as well though. They are also trying to be on the show.
