Why haven't I seen any Magnus Archives/Monster's Inc crossovers. Where's the fic where they find out Humor is stronger than Fear and Jon has to become a stand-up comedian

parent cats are crazy because they have the protectiveness of a parent but at the end of the day theyre still just cats

Saw a tiktok of a guy saying he doesn’t feel comfortable talking to minors because he’s 19. And it’s just. I’m so fucking tired of this.

And like to be clear, I’m speaking as a victim of pedophilia when I say: We need to get over this collective fear of endangering children. Because holy shit, this stuff is getting out of hand.

The average person is not a threat to a child.

And also!!! It is actually really really good for kids to have friendships with adults that aren’t their family.

Having friendships with adults when you’re younger prepares you for adult life in a better way then only interacting with adults that are family members or teacher as well.

And also if there’s any sort of weird behavior happening with adults or teachers, it’s very helpful to have unrelated adults, you can go to, and also have a model for what normal adults are supposed to look like.

And also! You’re just making it way easier for pedophiles to prey on children when you completely avoid interacting with them as an adult. Because kids are naturally inquisitive and curious. They are going to want to interact with adults and they are going to want to ask questions. And if the only adult adults that are willing to interact and speak with them or adults who have ulterior motivations. Guess what’s gonna happen.

Also on a more general note. Having a model for what a normal healthy adult is supposed to look like makes it way easier for kids to be able to recognize and identify when adults in their personal life are being weird.

Things cats were right about all along:

Fuck staying hydrated by drinking enough water - eat! more! wet! food! (watermelon, cucumbers, SOUP!)

Feels great to be really high up in your house where you can see the whole place (loft bed loft bed loft bed loft bed!)

Express yourself as clearly as possible when people are touching you and you don't want them to.

Optional, but you can also express yourself clearly when your people are not touching you and you want them to.

Sometimes it's important to just go "hmm. actually, I don't care" and wander off.

You don't have to be the strongest or toughest to defend yourself, it's enough to just be difficult enough to not be worth the trouble.

Ghosts will eventually leave if you stare at them for long enough.

Okay based on current reactions and such, I am feeling compelled to work on some more Alexis/Sam stuff to post here! So poll options (very well may do all of these at some point but /lh):

[Option Explanations/Extra Details]

In my mind, Alexis and William have a nasty argument when it reaches him that her and Sam are dealing with each other again. So it'd be a bit of that argument plus Sam comforting her after the fact

Sam's turning is no secret and I think many of the older vampires/vampires from other houses would be very intrigued to see Sam and Alexis as a couple at a Summit

Since Alexis and Sam are dating prior to a lot of Porter appearing, Summit stuff, etc., I think it would be fun to explore her being the one to reveal all of William's behind the scenes string pulling

Alexis being a test patient for Sam getting back into healing magic after she gets into a scuffle while out and about

Something something I rewrote canon and Alexis and Sam kill Quinn for Darlin early on in a sort of friendship. The fic would be the aftermath a few hours after that kill, maybe with a sleeping Darlin in the back of Sam's truck

Alexis having a panic attack or waking up from a nightmare based around Sam's turning and/or her own (will flip a coin for which I go with)

Dealer's Choice being one of the options of my choosing *or* any other idea that comes to me after the poll is up!

The "erm akshually hormone conditions aren't intersex, what about diabetes, insulin is a hormone 🤓" people on my post about intersex kids being put on blockers or HRT or hormonal birth control are making me see red. Lord give me patience. Deep breaths.

i am being so fucking serious when i say a lot of people need to free themselves and queer characters from the shackles of the idea of "good representation" you are stifling and limiting and shrinking queer characters down just so you can fit them into a "good representation" box and it's so. exhausting. queer characters are not a monolith. free yourselves. and them.
