they're gonna try and tell me this wasn't, that none of this happened,

We spent time here. We made friends here. That's a part of us.
Cause Hogwarts is bigger than any of us, of any of it's founders,
and it's going to be around long after we're gone.
Maybe we'll see our kids come here one day.
That's the thing about Hogwarts.

Burma... isnt that the place with the militia thing and them blocking relief aid so nothing gets to its people? i know its a decent act to donate but throwing money their way isnt addressing the real problem.
