Couple of new blog posts:
* xkcd-for-my-daughter: a list of XKCD strips, which were the
most relevant for me.
* enemies-to-friends: most “Enemies to friends” stories are just
incredibly stupid.
* hinny_dump: just a disorganized dump of Hinny stories
* huna_drinny: one of plot bunnies, which I would like to read
fulfilled, but I certainly cannot do so myself.
* james-potter-werewolf-incident: it is just impossible of events
happened how they are described in canon, JKR had to make a
mistake in ordering those two sub-stories, otherwise James
Potter would be quite a monster.
* lords-supper-and-magic: I have never understood why the idea of
magic should be against the Christian faith.
