    Harry Potter fans care more about a fake elf’s fake grave than the lives and happiness of the real people JK harasses every day. Assholes.

    despite being asked not to by the land owner, the National Trust, because the beach is an ecologically sensitive site.

    Shouldn’t this have mattered more?

      Sure, but this was a film only thing,

      The character was laid to rest on Freshwater West beach in Pembrokeshire, Wales, in the film Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows

      Maybe not any other book. Well, thinking about it, if they’d read the bible instead, at least there’s a good chance it stops them from becoming religious. So maybe ANY other book is correct after all

    Those people are weird but also why is the National Trust giving in to those demands? Maybe we could have more harmony in the world if we don’t listen to every completely irrational nonsense?

    Even at my peak fandom I’d have thought that’s stupid. And now I think destroying that fake grave would have been an added benefit of the cable.
