      One thing I fucking despise about Harry Potter is the smarmy way it tries to have a mea culpa about its exaltation of blood family by depicting a virtual chosen family in the Weasleys As if Molly or anybody would have given a rat's ass if Harry wasn't a wealthy beloved celebrityhttps://twitter.com/arthur_affect/status/1337255049722916864 …

      The whole thing about "chosen families" is that people who've been damaged enough by their original families to need them are usually not in a state to make very good choices

      Actually I'll bring back this thread because @celestineofall's wonderful fic actually does address these issues a little The idea that, ultimately, your security as an adoptee into a family is only as good as your ability to avoid undermining any of the blood-related membershttps://twitter.com/Nymphomachy/status/1312645090280648704 …

      I want to talk about this for a second because a connection popped into my mind and I want to articulate it before I forget about it There's this SNL short with Emma Stone called "The Actress" that I often I think about https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9HVH_I04ZrM … https://twitter.com/Nymphomachy/status/1311763310321250309 …

      People related by blood are permitted to work at cross purposes in ways that people in chosen families simply are not The moment Huxley starts bringing less to the table than the trouble he's worth, he can be rehomed

      If family's not egalitarian than it's no kind of family at all Hell, look at how in polyam communities "unicorn hunter" came to be a four-letter word Because it connotes a committed couple looking for a hot cisbi chick they can consign to a permanent role of subordination

      It's like the irony of how the federal government's extreme hostility to polygamy can, in fact, make patriarchal polygyny as practiced by FLDS *worse* There's one real wife with a real marriage certificate with rights in the event of a divorce Everyone else has nothing

      sort of a side note, but this is why it drives me mad to see marriage equality discussed as if it's a purely symbolic "culture war" issue whatever else it is, a marriage is a contract, and a real materially important one

      and the lack of such has been so devastating for queer people for decades, when suddenly an informal relationship came up hard against a very formal part of material reality like hospital visitation, or funeral rights, or inheritance

      so yeah, the thing about "found family" is, it matters kinda a lot how things are going to go down when the rubber hits the road the lean times and not the fat, so to speak

          The people @Nymphomachy is subtweeting would be extra offended by that reference
