That's right, cocksucker. Go back to Durmstrang!
The idea of someone just standing out of sight upstairs somewhere and yelling through a window is funny to me and I don't know why. It was funny in the Sopranos and it's funny for me in virtually every meme about it. It's just funny to imagine them standing there stoically.
>>216926326kek
>>216926326>picyo dawg, i herd you like towers
>>216926757>TEN DOLLARS A FUCKING MONTH!
last tower should be up taller
>>216926882It's a magical castle so it makes sense
>>216926882His office is tiered, first from the staircase going up to it, and then you can see it going up further behind the desk
>>216926882>So we put 3 towers on your tower
>>216926326Dumbledore turn himself into a Headmaster's Tower
>>216926326Is that structurally feasible?
>>216927540Sure
>>216927540It's magic
>>216926326I don't want to be a muggle bros. It's not the real me. How can I transition to purebloodhood?
>>216926326This style of Architecture wouldn't have existed 1000 years ago (when Hogwarts was first built)
>>216927827Hogwarts has changed and grown plenty over the centuries.
>>216926882kek
>>216927827Wizard culture is more advanced than muggle culture (except when it comes to indoor plumbing for whatever reason.)
>>216927827Hogwarts invented it. The architectural style spread to muggles later when muggles figured out how to do it without magic.Wizard structures are always supported by magic so they don't have to care about structural stability and shit.
>>216927804You're gonna need to swallow a lot of elf cum.I mean it's easier to just bang an elf and have magic babies, but if you want to be a wizard yourself then that's not gonna cut it.
>>216926946lmao>>216926757my cat used to get on a kink in my roof, perch himself directly in sight of some of the windows (wierd townhouse roof) and just meow for like half an hour for absolutely no fucking reason at all. if he could see you he'd stare at you while doing it, if not, he'd just meow at the skyi miss him every day :(
>>216928760Eggshelly, unchained architecture would look completely different. Why have thick walls at all? Why make walls look like walls? Why roofs like roofs? There's not even the need for cohesiveness. Rooms could be anywhere.
>>216928860>for absolutely no fucking reason at all.He found an acoustic sweet spot. He's listening to his voice echoing back at him.
>>216928860My cat does this sometimes alone in another room. When I walk in on him, he reacts like a human caught while doing a Travis Bickle routine in front of mirror. Like, uhmm you didn't see that, right? How much have you seen???
>>216927540its on an angled 'roof' so probably
>>216927827>Castles were built and then never added to
GOOD BYEFOREVERBEAUXBATON SCUM*releases tigers*
>>216926326No way this real, the outer towers would fall off
you now remember there was harry potter movies released in the mid 2010s. one was even released 3 years ago!
>>216926326I know it can't work in reality, but it feels übercomfy. Why the fuck is that?
>>216929382Why would you tear down the central tower part? Fucking bullshit ass bullshit. Look into Starforts people. These bitches are lying about everything
Wizarding Fact #572: Westoid Wizards didnt know how to bathe until a cultural exchange with superior West African Wizards brought bathing technology to them
>>216930074Not the tigers!
>>216930250Actual wizarding fact, African wizards have a specialty of turning into animals and being master thieves (they invented the unlocking charm).
>>216926326>>216926946>WHAT IN THE FUCK>STOP WITH THE FUCKING GUNS
>we don't want your fucking Nimbus 2001s
>>216927540No, but it's a castle built with magic so it doesn't matter. The entire building is constantly changing.
>>216926326what does the interior of this section look like?
How do you even build that without the whole thing breaking off from the main section?
What goes on in here?
>>216930227It's just an illustration of how the same location might have been fortified in different periods. By 1500, the design has been significantly adapted for firearms/cannons.

>>216927022terrible location for an old man. all those stairs and shit.
>>216931602Dude can literally teleport anywhere he wants though.
>>216926326Uncle Phil became a castle.
>>216927827It was built later, genius.
>>216928885They don't have to be autistic retards. Maybe they like thick walls. Maybe they find comfort in walls that look like walls.
>>216931042Guys will look at this and say hell yeah
>>216930213>I know it can't work in reality, but it feels übercomfy. Why the fuck is that?I've always wanted some cozy corner to hide/work in. The idea of sitting in some tower while working on some passion project is really fascinating to me.>look at the tiny window up there>yeah?>just behind it is a tiny alcove>ok?>anon sat there for 8 years and wrote his great novel>who gives a shit?I do.
>>216931863They cant apparate onto or off of school grounds, they made it clear in both the films and books
>>216933213He literally apparates to the astronomy tower in the films and when asked about it says "well, being me has its privileges".
>>216926326
>>216933533imaginine unplugging from the internet and joining a charity mission in a shithole to try and find yourself, only to be confronted with that staring into your soul.
>>216930250>West African Wizards brought bathing technology to themAfter copying the Roman wizards who developed it first after literally inventing the bath, and the Roman wizards were western.
>>216933675that's probably a brazilian favela, nobody goes there to "find themselves"if you're white you'll only find yourself killed
>>216930250shame west africans lost the technologyprobably stolen by colonialism
being high up in somewhere thats also that claustrophobic is a literal nightmare of mine
>>216933533If a building inspector comes by it's not a room it's a window box
>>216930074The Frenchies never knew what hit em.
>>216930227Because cannons were shooting the shit out of everyones keeps n shit, accidentally even if not on purpose when overshooting the walls so they had to start keeping everything pretty much no taller than the walls. The star shape just makes it so no one can approach the walls without entering a cross fire.Or maybe its just some satanic thing that only by coincidence went out of style the second dynamite came into play and walls were no good at all anynore...
>>216934042>building inspector>in a favelalol, lmao even
>>216934049there's one frenchette that knew what hit her :)
>>216933533This dude building rust bases irl
>>216929382Those first two would be real comfy. I'd watch a movie during the schooling done there.>>216932291Your university didn't have a quite side in the library that came with reservations for a carrel?
>>216934168yeah, it was a tiger
>>216933213>thinking Dumbledore will follow rules that he wrote10 points from griffindor
>>216933533Is this Haiti? It feels Haitian
>>216933533Is this Poland? It feels Polish
>>216933533he's got AC and sattelite TVcan' t be all that bad
>>216934298are you mad? the poles in the UK are coming back to poland because england has become such a shithole that Poland is better nowthey've received billions in EU investments for development
>>216931042
>>216934376Are you Polish?
>>216934389are you?
>>216934401I wish I were Polish
>>216931042Hell yeah
>>216934425been playing too much witcher, haven't you
>>216934463I'm not much of a gamer, I would just die for Poland, that's all
>>216934389Nah, I almost was, though. My Polish ancestor died in WWII when he left the screen door open on the submarine
>>216933533>The text "PETARE" on the modified basketball hoop refers to a large, deprived neighborhood in Caracas, Venezuela.
>>216934509>My Polish ancestor diedPoles don't die, they just become the angels they were always meant to be
>>216934528Hello Germanom from /int/

>>216934883>>216934906Fucking kill yourself, you spamming loser faggot. Everybody here hates you.
>>216927540I can't see how.
>>216930164This.
>>216930164nah it checks outhttps://mathworld.wolfram.com/BookStackingProblem.htmland also... you know... the fact that the bricks extending outwards would be attached to the wall
>>216934978brown rage is entirely unintimidating
>>216926326nice
>>216933533all this needs is some galvanized square steel and eco friendly wood veneers
>>216926326I would get serious vertigo standing in these fuckers. Constantly on edge.
>>216926326okay, so is this a study? storage? It's cool.
>>216936217>>216927022
>>216934384LMAO
>>216931602He really likes to “stretch his legs”
>>216926326See that overhang? Aesthetics? No, tax avoidance! You paid taxes for your building based on the area of the ground floor.
>>216936732Bad for Fire though
>>216936777Ever heard of the great fire of 1666?
>>216934980FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, MONTRESOR
>>216931602Dumbledore has splendid endurance. He likes to stretch the legs of a different twink every night.
>>216934980>he never used a VIP urinalpleb

>>2169293821125 is the coziest
>>216926326I can't imagine how much of a pain in the ass it would be to replace the shingles.

>>216934376>ask of billions from the EU>...>so are you going to do this gay shit?>"no"they managed to pull off what no other EU country could
>>216938563Niggas have flying brooms.
>>216927540don't think so, the stone is built out from the roof which would just be timber under the slates
>>216936809What was so great about it?
>>216940526The first part of the tower is clearly attached to the super structure.
>>216930977Buggery
>>216940880It was London.
>>216927540>>216940526>>216941118Stone works very well under compression loads (which would be at the bottom of the turrets) but is absolute shit in tensile loading (at the upper portions of the turrets).
>>216930164And the leaning Tower of Piza should be rubble on the ground by now.
>>216941338The weight is diffused across the surface and the way its off set means its just compressive weight with very little load being held laterally.
>>216941430Sure if you're building on turret, which was done many times. Try going out further with another turret. You can't
>>216928860
>>216931042They took this away from us
>>216930227As siege weaponry progressed to cannon fire, they quickly would've learned that their walls weren't thick enough as they were shot down, exposing the main keep, which also was either destroyed or pulled apart to build lower, thicker walls and ravelins
>>216926326ni
>>216938611Janny has to do parkour to replace it.
Is that Dracula tower from Castlevania?
>>216934069>The star shape just makes it so no one can approach the walls without entering a cross fire.It also means rounds are more likely to hit the walls at an oblique angle instead of dead on.
>>216928860He wanted to find a mate and fuck but was also castrated. So he had an itch he couldn’t scratch
>>216941839Sure you can. At that height the weight of the extra towers is negligible on the sheer force of the stone. Also look at a cross section of the bottom part of each turret. They're just a bunch of arches reinforcing it.
>>216933533>Steel bars on the door and lower window, upper window made too small to crawl through.Living around low iqs must suck. They get hungry they want to rob you, they get hard they want to rape you

>>216943464>Latin AmericaDragon Ball Super: Broly
>>216926326You couldn't pay me to set foot in this death trap.
>>216930977The occasional rave and Limited Edition Potency Power Fizzing Whizzbee which were discontinued for their unexpected side effects, but Dumbledore has a full crate of them in his backup tower.
>>216942996Wrong; if you're building further out, tensile forces become a problem that stone is awful at handling; that's why stone arches can span considerable distance but stone cantilevers are comparatively small.
>>216934279gonna tell you something grim bruhthat is way too sophisticated for haiti
>>216943666And its not sheering force anymore, Again, refer to the arches themselves, the weight is all diffused down through the wall. All it needs to support laterally is the walls themselves. Its negligible force as a while.
>>216944597Exactly, stone works in compression and not tension, making cantilevered turrets an impossibility. I have accepted your concession.
>>216943549Those poor portraits. Imagine being a fully sentient being and getting trapped in a painting for all eternity. You'd go from being a powerful wizard to being hung in someone's bathroom, watching them shit.
>>216944668they're not true people, they're sophisticated recordings/memories left behind, like ghosts
>>216944668also it's not like they're trapped in the painting, they can go to other paintings or just duck out entirely
>>216944699I always assumed that was the case, but from the films there's no proof they aren't people. Maybe the books or JK explained it more clearly. Looking it up you're correct, but I don't know the source.
>>216944668They can freely move between portraits. It's not really made clear how much sentience they have but they seem to have their own community between portraits.
>>216945067>>216944766>>216944741>>216944699>>216944668i always thought of them as being in their own dimension and the portrait is a portal to said dimension, hence why they can move to other dimensions (other portraits) or probably come out of portraits as well into the real world
