most snakes don't actually wanna interact with people so if you leave them alone they will leave you alone

White Snake by Axel Sauerwald

Okay, hear me out:

Evil x but they're a milk snake

Propaganda:

Milk snakes are harmless but look like coral snakes, which are a lot more dangerous (=ex attempting to be scary by telling everyone he's a coral snake)

THEY HAVE THE SAME COLORS!!!

ex is a derp evil and cool. Yk. Like a snake >:D

(thank you @livinggold for providing me a snake that LOOKS really dangerous but is harmless <2 and thank you evil X discord server for giving me the idea to make ex a snake)

For whatever reason, I found myself thinking about the theme of heritage/inheritance in Harry Potter and how it's, like, catastrophically broken in the text.

The villains in Harry Potter are almost unanimously racist and classist - they believe they are entitled to behave however they wish and live at the top of the social hierarchy because they were born to rich, pureblooded families, and anyone who wasn't is filth to be exploited and/or purged. That's the philosophy of evil in the book - "I deserve everything because I was born in the right family with the right genes and the right social standing. My heritage makes me better than you."

All the injustice and evil in the books is rooted in this belief in entitlement by way of heritage. People are abused and die because of it. Inherited wealth and status, and more specifically the unfair priveleges it affords, is the root of evil in Harry Potter.

So you'd think the protagonist would present some sort of strong contrast to it, right? That they'd be born poor, or mixed race, etc. But no, Harry is from a rich pureblood family, with the vast wealth and social status that affords.

Well, that's OK, we can still make a contrast. Maybe Harry differs in how he acts with wealth - perhaps, realizing his inheritance is an unfair privilege, he gives it away? Maybe he works to give the underprivileged their due? Again, no, not really. He sometimes buys stuff for his poor friend Ron, and defends his "mudblood" friend Hermione from racist criticism, but he sees no reason to change the system that dehumanizes them in the first place, and by the end of the tale is pleased to exploit his privilege for his own gain.

The whole house elf subplot illustrates this failing well - we have a race of slaves who are frequently shown to suffer from abuse. One of them, the property of a rich racist, risks his life to save Harry, and Harry frees him in return. Oh, nice, finally fighting the system, eh? Except no, not really - while Harry frees that specific slave, he's content to leave the others in bondage, especially when he inherits a slave of his own.

The contrast Harry Potter puts up against its rich, racist, privileged villains is "Hey, being rich and higher in the hierarchy is awesome and just, but you can't be a dick about it." That slaves belong in the dirt, but masters should be polite while putting them in their place.

Voldemort posits himself as the heir of Slytherin - claiming his inheritance is vital to his rise to power and villainy. And Harry opposes him by... also claiming inheritance from a rich old dead guy. Hell, the final battle comes down to who rightfully inherits a specific rare Wand!

The fact that Harry and Voldemort have shit in common is not a flaw on its own - villains and heroes are often foils for each other. But in this specific tale, the relationship the villain has with inherited power is so central to the conflict that the hero having the exact same relationship is a major failing. The story is just shy of saying "Voldemort was basically right, but he shouldn't have been rude about it." It's bad from both a moral and a writing skill perspective.

(The only inheritance Harry fully rejects is parseltongue, i.e. the ability to talk to snakes, which was accidentally given to him by Voldemort, and could be argued to be a symbol of trauma rather than inherited wealth. Also I'm still salty about how that series turned on snakes so cruelly, but that's a whole other rant.)

Snakes, pigeons, turkeys, and skunks. Love these babies. They need more attention ❤️🦃 🐍🦨🐦❤️

i held a corn snake today

im in love but my mom is scared of snakes 😿

So I’ll try to get better lightning next time but for now I think this is the best I can make out of it. (there’s a lot of smoke that’s blocking the sun here because of forest fires and the indoor lights aren’t the best either). Anyway I’m sure people already came up with this idea but I wanted to do my take on Deceit’s scales. The headcanon here is that scales pop-up the more you lie to yourself and others. And of course the sides try to hide it at much from the each other as possible because they think they’re the only ones, they are insecure and various other reasonable well explainable lies reasons. Which only makes it worse. I guess this is basically considered angst for all sides woops.

I’m hoping I didn’t tag anyone that didn’t want to be tagged if so please inform me.

A snake story, based on an experience I had while I was in Florida.

Medusa’s Garden by Iren Horrors

This artist on Instagram

In season 1 episode 2 it’s so funny that Arthur and Morgana are fighting like siblings and they don’t even realize it. (Y’all someone stop me this show is slowing going to become an obsession again)

Found on IFunny.

I have a pet snake, did you know I, Bee, have a pet snake??? Could someone even conceive the thought of me, a Tumblr user, housing a reptile????

He has found his castle. ♥️♥️

Stand with us 🍉🍉🍉

This is me, Mother of Ahmed from Gaza 🍉🇵🇸🍉, here small message from Ahmed:

I have autism, which means I sometimes find things a bit hard. Before the war, I used to go to therapy sessions to help me, but now I can't because of the war. I get really nervous and fidgety, and I don't talk much. Mom really wants to take me somewhere where I can get better and be like other kids.

Snak cat (Or is it just a ferret?)

cool snake fact: long

Noodle doodles I did :)

I cannot emphasize how much I wish I was this snake. my quality of life would improve so much.

I had no reason for this except that I wanted to draw a bunch of tiny snakes.

I saw a picture of a friend and his GF having a nice date and having snakes on there necks and I just felt like drawing them and challenging my art skills. Hope you guys enjoy it and I hope they like it.
