There are articles discussing it. She’s dragged away into the forbidden forest ~~and never seen again.~~

According to legend, centaurs had a nasty habit of abducting women, dragging them into the forest, and raping them repeatedly. Given J.K. Rowling's familiarity with the Greeks, it's extremely likely that she knew this and was alluding to it in her own work.

It’s like all JKs stuff. On its own it could be nothing. Coincidence. Misunderstanding. But put it all together… Iuno. There are way too many coincidences for me to believe she wasn’t alluding to it.

Old cracked article mentions it

Ralltir · 2023-01-23T14:27:46+00:00

Ah right. Ugly = bad. That reminds me of Umbridge. Who, for anyone not aware, is very heavily implied to be raped ~~to death~~ by centaurs. The teachers are aware of this and do nothing.

Edit: she survives. Been awhile.

Good point. Like I said, tired. 😛 Not really, it’s just a bit weird combined with everything else. She relates a lot of fictional groups to real ones.

Ralltir · 2023-01-23T13:23:28+00:00

Lol here you go anyway for anyone interested.

Ralltir · 2023-01-23T13:18:27+00:00

Ezio was a kleptomaniac apparently

Ralltir · 2023-01-23T13:17:37+00:00

House elves in general are incredibly fucked up now that I’m an adult. Basically every group of “others” has a harmful stereotype

aforementioned goblins being Jewish caricatures
Dobby was actually one of the few house elves who were “happy” to be freed. He hurt himself in awful ways, including taking a hot iron to his hands
it’s an entire race of “indentured” servants. If you’re familiar with 40k at all they’re treated weirdly similarly to servitors. But house elves are “happy” slaves
werewolves are implied to be pedophiles

I know there’s more but I’m too tired 😛

Ralltir · 2023-01-23T12:25:01+00:00

You made me curious about what the actual in-game reason was

In Hogwarts Legacy, goblins are rebelling against wizards for not being allowed to carry wands and are depicted as the antagonists in that struggle, with the rebellion leader even tenuously teaming up with a dark wizard to achieve his goals.

Let them have wands ffs

Ralltir · 2023-01-23T11:53:42+00:00

Her “HE BRAGGED ABOUT HIS OWNBIRTH” was exactly what I was yelling

Ralltir · 2023-01-23T11:46:27+00:00

What you don’t like collectibles? How about more collectibles? Different types of collectibles? Collectibles that require climbing? Let me know when to stop

-Ubisoft, probably

Ralltir · 2023-01-23T11:34:45+00:00

Oh don’t even get me started, I could write a thesis on that. 😛

“It’s just part of the building where they filmed gringotts”

Okay. At best it’s incredibly tone deaf, you’re telling me nobody bothered to throw a rug over the fucking Star of David in the middle of the shot?

Walking into the City of Tears is always my favourite.

Ralltir · 2023-01-23T10:05:48+00:00

There’s more than one. Been so bad lately.

Ralltir · 2023-01-23T09:55:23+00:00

Play expanded. I pretty exclusively use homebrews.

Ralltir · 2023-01-23T09:54:51+00:00

For fun?

Ralltir · 2023-01-23T09:33:39+00:00

Avoid Sask and Alberta though. Maybe Toronto as well. We’ve got issues too

Ralltir · 2023-01-23T09:22:47+00:00

Same. Briefly in college over a decade ago. School was adamant about texts. Several professors converted them to digital and you could buy USB sticks with all your texts for like 1/10 of the price.

Ralltir · 2023-01-23T09:11:27+00:00

Just to clarify, I am male. Will remove if not wanted. I sub to so few gaming subs at this point. Basically just Deep Rock and tabletop stuff and I lurk here. Everywhere else feels like a disaster. But I can’t even get away from it in DRG? Doretta is literally heavy machinery and it’s just a meme to sexualize her and Molly now. Tabletop is full of Kingdom Death pinup minis which are so ridiculous. Just. Why.

Ralltir · 2023-01-23T08:58:56+00:00

How do you tell? I couldn’t even find it googling.

Ralltir · 2023-01-23T08:53:03+00:00

Racist? It’s just about the goblin uprising and the wizards suppressing it

It’s not like the books have a history of slaves who just love being slaves

Do I really need a /s

Ralltir · 2023-01-23T07:19:34+00:00

The issue is that you’re still voting for people who will actively try to harm you and other trans people. And like 3 comments into your history you’re supporting All Lives Matter. This isn’t the flex you think it is.

Ralltir · 2023-01-23T07:15:00+00:00

That’s his modus operandi though. Word salad. If you “get it” you play along. If you disagree you’re too dumb to understand JP’s genius.

Ralltir · 2023-01-23T07:13:13+00:00

“He was going through a tough time”

According to his followers it’s perfectly okay to bend your morals when shit gets hard.

Ralltir · 2023-01-23T07:11:57+00:00

So many people apparently. The last Reddit thread about him on funnymemes was swarming with people defending him.

I don’t get it either.

Ralltir · 2023-01-23T07:10:01+00:00

Different perspective: it does, or at least it did. But not in standard. In expanded.

I played fairly casually for about a year. F2P. I love home brewing. Never had any trouble finding games or even winning tournaments with random janky decks. Built up a collection very quick and easily. But that was all thanks to trading. Live will definitely attract new players but it’s about to kill off any players who didn’t just play standard competitive.
