Imagine getting a fun little wizard tattoo in the year 2000, then watching in horror as JK Rowling reveals her true poisonous colours over the next 25 years. It's not surprising many people would have regrets over that.

    @floofloof could be worse! What if you named one of your kids after a character!

    Oh it can get worse, it was common for a while for trans women to name themselves after a character. Yeah a lot of Liliths used to be Lillies.

    And yeah I have an ex with a Harry Potter tattoo and a trans kid
