Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.

Our Rules:

  1. Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.

  2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

  3. Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.

  4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

  5. No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

To be fair, Hogwarts probably felt like a shit show for staff. Children are hard enough to deal with, I can't imagine dealing with throngs of (largely wealthy and entitled) magic children. It's pretty obvious that the only thing that kept Filch going was pure, unfiltered spite.

He was JKR's self insert character

I refuse to believe JKR ever loved a cat.

She may have loved a cat, I don't think she was ever loved by a cat.

Especially seeing how full of hate she is

It's hard to imagine her loving anything other than herself

I refuse to believe JKR ever loved ~~a cat~~.

Well her other self insert, Hermione, also had a cat, so things aren't looking good for cat lovers.
