Stuff you can think about while continuing to ignore JK’s racist and pathetically misguided attempts at approximating American wizard history:


magic schools in old, one room schoolhouses enchanted to have a dozen rooms for a hundred students at a time

magic schools under the Appalachians disguised as old, abandoned coal mines
magic schools disguised as abandoned railroad towns (there are a LOT more of those than you think. Seriously, look up West Virginia ghost towns sometime)
magic schools under the Kansas hills, built like sod houses to resemble the old faerie mounds
historically black magic schools
each Native American nation having its own school of magic, making sure their own traditions won’t die out and be forcibly replaced with European ones
Chesapeake Bay Academy, the magic school for the DMV (DC, Maryland, and northern Virginia) being sister schools with Mahoutokoro

magical schools mascots like hidebehinds, cactus cats, and teakettlers (because lumberjack folklore is weird and adorbs and makes perfect magical creatures)

and the weirdest news stories in the American wizarding world still come from Florida because some things are universal

trashybooksforladies:



In my time working for the state government, my job sent me to 46 cities in 11 years. I lived in villages with eight people, rural farming communities, college towns. I was sent to every corner of Indiana. And then I came here, and I realized that this whole time, I was just wandering around, everywhere, just looking for you.

listen. i know jk rowling knows absolutely nothing about america but for the entire country to only have a single wizarding school there must be either 200 professors working at this place or you get to your first potions class and it’s held in a fucking baseball stadium.
