Ūropi, also known by its indigenous name “Europe”, meaning “wide-gazing” or “broad of aspect”, is a small continent first discovered in 1806 by Moehanga of Ngāpuhi, although indigenous Europeans had been living there for many thousands of years. Modern researchers believe the indigenous Europeans originally migrated from the Middle East, and over time split into separate tribes or “kingdoms,” with many retaining their ancient rangatira (called “monarchs” or “nobility”) to this day.
While many see Ūropi as timeless and exotic, indigenous Europeans have actually adapted well to the modern economy, often exporting cultural products like baguettes and vodka, the former of which may be recognisable as the basis for bánh mì.
whenever this comes up i like to remind people that harry going back to the abusive dursleys every year was treated by the narrative as something necessary and good because they’re his family after all, and percy jackson gave his mom medusa’s head so that she could turn her abusive husband to stone and sell his remains as a sculpture to pay for her degree and that was framed as a good decision without remorse. and that’s the difference between hp and pjo as stories i think
Rick Riordan received the Stonewall Book Award while rowling’s friends are nazis, if that helps
Internet mobs will be like “why doesnt anyone just ADMIT when theyre WRONG anymore??!!” and then treat someone like they deserve the death penalty because they said something off-colour on twitter when they were 14
No one will admit that they were wrong if you treat being wrong like its an eternal indictment against them with no chance for rehabilitation
these tags, tbh. we fucked up when we allowed “the people you hurt aren’t obligated to accept your apology” to shift into “…so you have to shut up and accept whatever abuse is hurled your way no matter what, forever, and if you ever say anything about it, you’re deflecting and playing the victim.”
all this accomplishes is driving people to double down & refuse to acknowledge any wrongdoing, bc to admit fault would be to accept that you’re a Bad Person, which means you deserve whatever you get.
