Me: *writes Fic*

RETURN OF THE KING

the “pleasure to have in class” to overly active tumblr user pipeline

A lot of people around me are having kids and every day it becomes more apparent that hitting your children to punish them is insane because literally everything can be a horrible punishment in their eyes if you frame it as such.

Like, one family makes their toddler sit on the stairs for three minutes when he hits his brother or whatever. The stairs are well lit and he can see his family the whole time, he’s just not allowed to get up and leave the stairs or the timer starts over. He fucking hates it just because it’s framed as a punishment.

Another family use a baseball cap. It’s just a plain blue cap with nothing on it. When their toddler needs discipline he gets a timeout on a chair and has to put the cap on. When they’re out and about he just has to wear the cap but it gets the same reaction. Nobody around them can tell he’s being punished because it’s in no way an embarrassing cap, but HE knows and just the threat of having to wear it is enough.

And there isn’t the same contempt afterwards I’ve seen with kids whose parents hit them. One time the kid swung a stick at my dog, his mother immediately made him sit on the stairs, he screamed but stayed put, then he came over to my dog and gently said “Sorry Ellie” and went back to playing like nothing happened, but this time without swinging sticks at the nearby animals.

I was today years old when I learned that when you type “otp: true” in AO3 search results it filters out fics with additional ships, leaving only the fics where your otp is the main ship

Ok so random thought but I need a Criminal Minds X What We Do In The Shadows fan fic. I just need the team investigating all the freaking Larpers Guillermo keeps feeding to the vampires. And just like I imagine it’s season three before Nandors wedding or just some time when Guillermo hasn’t slept in a week and their just getting investigated by the freaking FBI.

They love each other😌

Mumbo, when sleep-deprived enough, will regress into old habits and start building massive lag machines to try and crash the server.

His loopy logic is that if he crashes the server hard enough, his brain will also crash and he can get some rest. More often than not though, the lag just makes time skip forward more quickly and he forgets to sleep even more. By this point, he may have just designed an accidental sleep deprivation farm...

Maddie: Danny, are you free? I want to talk.

Danny: Not now, mom. I’m chastising my kids.

*looks at Billy, Constantine and Conner. Dani paints Dan’s nails in the corner of the room*

Maddie: Yeah, I thought I’d hear that from my boy in his early twenties at the worst. But here we are.
