Why is that important when J K Rowling has already said (over ten years ago,) that Prof. Dumbledore is a gay dude? Because word-of-God/author is not the same as on-screen canonisation (official-ness.) It comes across as queer-baiting. At best.

Friday Fics Fix - Dumbledore is Gay. Dumbledore is Gay. Dumbledore. Is. Gay. Deal With It.
You may or may not know that the chance has once again been lost to allow the Harry Potter universe's Albus Dumbledore to BE gay on-screen.

Comics Wrap-Up - They Say We Are What We Are
Due to some American football hijinks, we got an Avengers: Infinity War trailer this week.
I can't help but feel that we've had more in past years. But if a random-a** sport wants to give me superheroes, I'm fine with it! ;)
(And yes, it is American football - real football is played with a round ball and two nets #JustSaying. Also, I was a fantastic goalie as a kid. #TrueStory.)

Month in Review(s) - January 2018
January felt like a month which put a rocket to my secret* blogging powers.
I don't know why, but I actually really liked the posts I wrote this month! And I'm (finally) beginning to get a handle on the whole 'juggling work, life, blogging, and miscellaneous other stuff' thing.
That said, I've probably just jinxed myself for the year ahead. My life tends to resemble an episode of Milo Murphy's Law sometimes 😅

Nerd Church - Hatred Has No Place Here
Darren Osborne - the man who drove a truck into a group of innocent Muslim mosque-goers last year - won't be coming out of jail any time soon. As it should be.
This was a terrorist act. The sentencing took that into consideration. (Though the press could make this clearer, tbh.)
It was a vile, terrorist, murder. As a Welshwoman and a white British chick, I can only apologise again for this horrendous act.

Friday Fics Fix - Everyone From Harry Potter Has Mental Health Problems, M'k?
You want some Harry Potter fanfiction discussing mental health problems? (Of course you do, is that even a question?!)*
This fic could be heavy sh** for some people, so be CAREFUL when reading my nerdlets.
