Hey, our revisionist queen J.K. Rowling is back to her old tricks, with some more un-asked for and unrepresented tea about the inner workings of the expanded Harry Potter universe! Stop it! No seriously. Stop.

This is not new — J.K is constantly revealing weird little facts and figures, to such an extent that it’s already an established meme — who could forget the time she canonised the fact that wizards used to shit on the floor?

It seems like a million years ago that she casually announced that Dumbledore was gay: a fact that has famously had absolutely no representation in the books or the films, making it less “canon” and more “secret authorised fan-fiction”.

Lately, a lot of chat has been about Dumbledore’s “relationship” with the dark wizard Grindelwald — and because nobody asked, J.K. Rowling has confirmed that there was a “sexual dimension” to it.

Radio Times reports that on the special features for the upcoming Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald Blu-ray, Rowling said:

“Their relationship was incredibly intense. It was passionate, and it was a love relationship,” Rowling said during the ‘Distinctly Dumbledore’ feature. “But as happens in any relationship, gay or straight or whatever label we want to put on it, one never knows really what the other person is feeling. You can’t know, you can believe you know.”

Cool, great, whatever: I literally don’t care unless this is reflected, visually, on the screen. DUMBLEDORE MUST FUCK.

But, what IS enjoyable, is the latest and very funny meme dunking on J.K. Rowling.

Look, there’s just a whole bunch and they’re all good!
