So transfiguration is like chemistry, right? Orchestrating a reaction that changes one thing into another? So why do we have to weigh things?
What if transfiguration follows the law of conservation of mass? So if I changed a stone into a feather, it would weigh the same as it had before?
Are there then subsequent spells that can alter the density of objects? Incantations that can, in an “ant-man” sense, expand or contract the space between atoms?
I’m just so interested in the nuts and bolts of magic itself. Now I’m sure I’m a ravenclaw
My blog theme in the first year of being on tumblr: carefully chosen font, ‘professional’ style, high quality neutral images with “deep” meanings like the ocean and sunrises. My blog theme after 4 years of being on tumblr:
remember when Aang was going to stand trial for a murder Kyoshi committed, and they found all this evidence that proved that Kyoshi couldn’t have done it, and it was all pretty solid that she shouldn’t have even been near the murder when it happened, and they were going to prove her and Aang’s innocence if they could just argue the defense, and then Kyoshi manifested during the trial and was like “nah, I killed that man” and peaced out, leaving Aang to get boiled alive just so she could take credit for it
The world’s oldest tortoise is in a relationship with a younger reptile, and it turns out that tortoise is a male. Jonathan, who is 186 years old, has been in a relationship with a fellow tortoise Frederic for the past 26 years.
I got a good response on my last tutorial, and I want to thank all of you for that. I revived a handful of questions and requests on other subjects too, so, a least for a while, I’m going to post a new tutorial (or tutorial type thing) once or twice a month. If you left a question or request you’re on my list and I promise I’ll get to you, just be patient (these things are kind of involved to make). Also, if anyone else has a request, please feel free to comment and let me know!
New rule, non muslims can’t say the word jihad. Until you stop conflating a word that means personal struggle with faith and temptation with terrorism youre just not allowed to say it.
I’m not a Muslim but I just thought I would reblog this because I think it’s definitely worth listening to.
It’s totally okay for non muslims to reblog this, and i encourage it. Im just glad you’re listening.
Oh god, finally someone said it. Every time I see words like “jihadist” I want to scream, but I’m not Muslim, so I wasn’t sure I should say anything.
Jihad means struggle. It doesn’t mean holy war or anything like it. In fact, there is no word in Islam for holy war, because the nature of Islam does not leave room for holy war. Islam has a juridical system, not a Pope who can just say “Go wage holy war.” Conflating the personal nature of jihad with violence is so very gross and it needs to stop. Period.
Actually, there’s another word non-muslims in the media shouldn’t use:
Allahu Akbar. It’s not a statement of terrorism. It means “god is great”. It’s something we say to praise our lord. It’s what we say when we pray. It’s not a statement of terrorism. Allahu Akbar doesn’t mean terrorism stop using it as one
I would really appreciate it if non Muslims understood this
