I've said it before and I will keep saying it. Watching the show, the movies, or reading the books puts money in her pocket. Even if you pirate them, you're contributing to the popularity of the franchise. JKR is an objectively awful person who actively harms others. Don't be an accomplice.

Wow we’re having “games are art” discourse again! Just gonna leave this here. From my dissertation:
2.1 Lenses, Not Boxes
I wondered whether this section was necessary, but games discourse seems to repeatedly find itself adrift in questions of whether _ counts as a _. We have seen
the question repeatedly: Do games count as art? Do games without goals count as games? Is The Sims a game? Are hypertexts interactive fiction? Are
Twine pieces literature? In fairness to the researchers cited here, all of whom I respect immensely, many of these sources pose or imply the question rhetorically. Still, the necessity of such a framing frustrates me.
"Is _ a _?" is, in my opinion, a fruitless question. The question can never be answered to anyone's satisfaction, and it often serves as either a provocation
to espouse politics or as a cover to institute gatekeeping. Its agenda is usually opaque
to onlookers and bewildering to those trying to advance the field from across disciplines.
We should be thinking in lenses, not boxes.
It is always more interesting to ask "If we think of _ through the lens of _, what do we learn?" We know it is more interesting to ask "What do we learn
by considering Tom Stoppard through the lens of poststructuralism?" than to ask "Is Stoppard's work poststructuralist?" And while some works may be more or less fruitful when examined through different lenses, sometimes the most unlikely pairings of lenses and objects are the most rewarding. Certainly any of the questions above would be much better served by reframing them in this way.

For any newbies, if you don't want nudity, don't fucking report it. This place is not for cops and that includes people who report when they find nudity or sexual content offensive. Use the moderation tools/options. This place is a haven for a lot of sex workers and queer people.
