Whenever Teddy doesn’t feel well, he will (only) ask Harry but not grandma Andromeda to bring him to his favourite healer, his uncle Draco who works in St. Mungo. Harry suspects Teddy might know about his crush on Draco.

THIS IS INGENIOUS
This squad was a blast to design.
Luna: My girl’s got all kinds of little Easter eggs in her ink. Her patronus and the moon are her big ones, but there are little guys like her parents’ names, a thestral, and magical elements as well.
Draco: The snake isn’t so much “slytherin pride” as it is a “post-Deathly Hallows” ownership of his past; I thought putting it on his ribs was a good vulnerable spot for that.
Ginny: My main chick has a lot of quittich tattoos (left forearm and ribcage, and a Holyhead Harpies logo on her left thigh), but I put a lot of family ones in there too. She has her family’s first initials down her right leg, a Weasley “W” on her wrist, and Harry’s quittich number 7 on her bicep. I also threw in a little something for Gryffindor: a cursive “hear me roar” across her ribs.

Honest Advice On Relationships And Life In General By This Balloon Artist
"I try to make commentary about, or poke fun at, social media. The balloons were a social media trope often used in bridal showers and gender reveals, so they were a natural progression of that idea. I love the contrast of profound, funny, or challenging quotes spelled in silly balloons. And since another common cliche is endless selfies, I tend to put myself in most of the photos. They often make people cringe, but the cringe is the point,“ Michael told Bored Panda.
I love these so much. Needed to hear more than one of them.

The Himba (singular: OmuHimba, plural: OvaHimba) are indigenous peoples with an estimated population of about 50,000 people living in northern Namibia, in the Kunene Region (formerly Kaokoland) and on the other side of the Kunene River in Angola. The OvaHimba are a semi-nomadic, pastoralist people, culturally distinguishable from the Herero people in northern Namibia and southern Angola, and speak OtjiHimba, a variety of Herero, which belongs to the Bantu family within Niger–Congo. The OvaHimba are considered the last (semi-) nomadic people of Namibia.
The Himba often cover themselves with otjize paste, a cosmetic mixture of butterfat and ochre pigment, to cleanse the skin over long periods due to water scarcity and protect themselves from the extremely hot and dry climate of the Kaokoland as well as against mosquito insect bites. The cosmetic mixture, often perfumed with the aromatic resin of the omuzumba shrub, gives their skin and hair plaits a distinctive orange or red-tinge characteristic, as well as texture and style. Otjize is considered foremost a highly desirable aesthetic beauty cosmetic, symbolizing earth’s rich red color and blood the essence of life, and is consistent with the OvaHimba ideal of beauty. The OvaHimba are also accustomed to use wood ash for hair cleansing due to water scarcity.
Hairstyle and jewelry play a significant role among the OvaHimba, it indicates age and social status within their community. An infant or child will generally have his head kept shaven of hair or a small crop of hair on his head crown. This soon is sculptured to one braided hair plait extended to the rear of the head for young boys and young girls have two braided hair plaits extended forward towards the face often parallel to their eyes. This style is called ozondato, the form of wear being determined by the oruzo membership (patrilineal descent group). The style remains during preadolescence until reaching puberty. Some young girls, with exception, may also have one braided hair plait extended forwards, which means they are one of a pair of twins.

Once they reach puberty, OvaHimba girls will have many otjize textured hair plaits, some arranged to veil the girl’s face.
This girl is going through puberty, a fact made plain by her hairstyle, which has been designed to cover her face and help her avoid male attention. The puffs at the bottom are either goat hair or synthetic.
(In daily practice, the hair plaits are often tied together and held parted back from the face.)
This girl’s braids are arranged to reveal her face, indicating that she’s ready to be married.
Women who have been married for about a year, or have had a child, wear an ornate headpiece called the Erembe, sculptured from sheepskin, with many streams of braided hair, coloured and put in shape with otjize paste.

Unmarried young men continue to wear one braided hair plait extended to the rear of the head. When Himba men marry, they start wearing turbans, which they never take off unless someone in the village dies. After a death, their heads are shaved. Because the turbans are never removed, things can get a little itchy underneath, so men carry pointed arrow-like instruments to scratch it with.

Just an experiment. Reblog if you actually give a fuck about male victims of domestic violence and rape.
Of fucking course
What sick bastard doesn’t
“You’d be surprised”, said Xaldien, who just lost four followers and received a lovely “men can’t be raped” anon shortly after reblogging this the first time.
I am abt to lose my fuckin mind because I happened upon this gender reveal party. and like it’s soo over the top expensive
And like I’m like. Oh great, a horse themed gender reveal party.
complete with like … just truly excessive foods and of course, themed cocktails
and this sign which like… the fragility of like *not* italicizing the word ‘colt’. Like imagine being this weird abt gender
with like, a bucket that eventually ‘revealed’ the gender
But like… the picture that really just completely undid me, for this party which surely was more money than many weddings -
it’s not a horse themed gender reveal party. It’s a gender reveal party FOR A HORSE. I can’t even like imagine the life that would lead to hosting a gender reveal party for a not-yet-born horse. Think abt getting an invitation to this. the cis are at it again.
wow okay whiplash, now I can’t decide whether it actually being about a horse makes it less weird or much more weird.

you could put a dead body there and put a blanket on it and people would think they were just sleeping and it would be a great way to transport dead bodies inconspicuously.
