If there's one subject I can easily say I'm more tired of than goblins it's Y2K paranoia that is currently gripping the muggle world. Except I don't think it's paranoia because I really don't want to be in London if the tube stops running because the computers are down or something.

Thank Helga I can apparate.

Except that's not going to help me with my growing addiction to Coronation Street if the tellys are affected too.

	In full disclosure, some of my friends and colleagues are launching our muggleborn awareness campaign at this match. We would like to count you among us. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Do you count Isla Cameron among those friends and colleagues? She sent me an arm band. It's pink. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Isla Cameron Monte Cameron Dawn Withey Aiden Lynch Just to name a few, and we under general agreement that neon pink is a very nice color. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Well it's certainly not something found in nature. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It's also not much of a wizarding color. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	They do have lime green however. Have you visited St. Mungo's recently? I thought those robes would be seered into my mind. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	More than I might like, which is why we are going with neon pink right now and likely picking safety orange or yellow for phase two. However, we are less concerned with the fashion statement and more with creating visibility. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Jason \| Justin justifiability 2017-11-28 04:58 am UTC (link)
	Oh yeah. Sure. I'm all for visibility and all that, but it just might not be as foreign a color as everyone thinks it is. Or who knows, I could be wrong. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

I can't help but wonder if you are negotiating the execution here. My plan is for neon pink so bright it is quite literally glowing, which while it might not be an inherently wizardborn color, being a wizard does allow me the ability to make things glow.

It will stand out. It is by no means the final step, but rather the first in a long campaign we are using our public stage on the pitch to start fighting.

	Maybe I am. People say I'm a pain in the ass like that. I can wear pink, no problem. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	As long as you know it's not just a color. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Jason \| Justin justifiability 2017-11-29 01:46 am UTC (link)
	Yeah I know. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I figured you might, but I'm working on full transparency here and want to make sure you're aware of what the choice means. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

So I am going to preface this by saying I understand how flippant this is going to sound, but honestly, what do I have to lose?

I don't have a career in the wizarding world. I am independently financially secure. I can claim friendship with Harry Potter and his ilk. What are they going to do, throw me in Azkaban? They already tried that.

So sign me up because I can only watch so much Coronation Street before my mother starts making noises at me. Which, for the record, she's already doing.

	Not all of us were that lucky. I can also appreciate that some muggleborns as part of their recovery process don't want to engage in the political arena because it is too painful. This also won't be an easy road. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Jason \| Justin justifiability 2017-11-29 03:22 am UTC (link)
	I guess what I'm trying to say that if someone has to go down, I would rather it be me rather than someone else who could lose a lot. I don't mind. I'm going a bit spare here. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Jason \| Justin feelingyou 2017-11-29 05:39 am UTC (link)
	I find it astounding that you don't think you have anything to lose. Astounding and honestly kind of worrying. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Jason \| Justin justifiability 2017-11-29 03:28 pm UTC (link)
	~~I'm sorry?~~ Well it's probably not normal. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Jason \| Justin feelingyou 2017-11-29 11:39 pm UTC (link)
	And I will fully welcome you to the fucked up from the war club, but there is always something worth fighting for, just like there is always something that should be protected because there is always something to lose. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Jason \| Justin justifiability 2017-11-30 12:23 am UTC (link)
	~~Yeah. My friends and stuff, but if I had to I could probably walk away. Maybe.~~ I just want a purpose. Maybe this is it then. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Jason \| Justin feelingyou 2017-11-30 12:29 am UTC (link)
	Then I would say welcome to the revolution, except the war is over. Now comes the longer far less exciting part of actually changing hearts and minds, and more importantly how governing works. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Jason \| Justin justifiability 2017-11-30 12:47 am UTC (link)
	Yeah. Okay. Sounds good. (Reply to this) (Parent)
