An Open Letter to Harry Potter,
Hi. Many of you may have read my Open Letter to All Fandoms recently. I got a lot off my chest in that post, but I wanted to talk very specifically about Harry Potter for a bit.
Let me begin by establishing my Harry Potter nerd cred. I love Harry Potter. I have read every book and seen every movie. I went to midnight book releases and film showings. I have been to the theme park. I have a Hufflepuff robe and a Gryffindor robe. I have Hermione’s wand AND Time turner. I have a Nimbus 2001, a Hufflepuff scarf and tie. I even have a Harry Potter tattoo. When I tell you that I love Harry Potter, I mean it.
All of that being said, I have some beef with Harry Potter, mostly about how it completely and totally sucks at LGBTQ+ representation. Now, there’s so much going on with this topic that it’s going to take some effort for it not to just be a rambly incoherent mess. So I’ll organize this into three parts: What I wanted, What I got, and Why that isn’t enough.
If you want to comment on this, want to tell me that I’m overreacting or that I’m wrong or whatever, all I ask is that you really read all of this first. Please. Hear me out.

She Writes and Draws: An Open Letter.
To the girl who waited on me (or didn’t wait on me) at Nordstroms tonight:
I wonder if you think that ignoring me was the right thing to do, or if, to you, it was just a thing to do. I’m not sure if you know this or not, but fatness is not contagious. Also, I won’t eat you, step on you or squish…

Angelina Jolie had a double mastectomy, in case you hadn’t heard. How dare she remove those ticking time bombs from her chest, amiright? Like, hasn’t she learned by now that her body is public domain and we all get to vote on what she does with it? Sheesh, how selfish can ya get.

1. you have never read it before and think it’s boring (it KINDA is on the first read-through, but the beauty of the language and the realism of the language totally makes up…

Moffat’s “feisty” female characters all seem to speak in the same quickfire, gimmicky manner which grates ever so slightly to my ears. Whatever faults one might have attributed to Russell T. Davies’s series openers, he always sketched out convincing characters incredibly well. Even minor figures could take on a dense weight of realism. By contrast, many of Moffat’s characters carry an air of stylized unreality, something which I’d say has been true of Amy Pond in the past, and seems true yet again of the major new character here, thanks partly to things like the “chinboy” and “beaky” shtick.
