Things I should be writing: 1. The next chapter of Unstoppable. 2. The 5+1 Natasha and Stiles fic in the Superheroes universe. 3. The Derek POV chapter between chapters 9 and 10 of Unstoppable. 4. The Other Side chapter where Fury tries to introduce the Avengers to the supernatural community and it backfires spectacularly. 5. The Other Side chapter where Ross gets his ass handed to him thanks to Stiles. 6. The fic that takes place between Superheroes and Unstoppable. What I started writing last night and can't stop: A fucking Harry Potter/Twilight crossover. I don't care what they say: it's @jacyevans and @spankerella's fault. It just is. They don't even know what's it about, but it's their fault to my ADHD brain, so there.

More comments that made me laugh:

It’s also worth noting that Leon’s VA for dbd Riley McShane knew exactly what he was doing.

may i please direct everyone to this tiktok, of which the dudes who voice leon kennedy and chris redfield have something more to add to this thread:

[tallahasseemp3]

the kind of gay representation i want from marvel is simple. i want to hear a grindr noise from bucky’s phone while he and sam are staking a place out and sam is like come ON dude

[spiritsflame]

this and the stakeout is in the middle of absolutely nowhere. Bucky pulls out his phone like he’s about to swipe right on Greg-the-Henchman, mostly to fuck with Sam.

Meanwhile, Greg-the-Henchman, showing off this hot match he just made and his buddy Jake-the-Henchman, who is more up to date on the briefings, just “...Is that the winter soldier.’

and there is a single moment. before they both remember that grindr is proximity based.  “Oh FUCK we gotta GO!” 

[chucktaylorupset]

Jake Thehenchman: Wait is it just me... or is that the winter soldier

Greg Theotherhenchman: Aw dang it, I'm being catfished?

Jake: Do a reverse google image search

Greg: ...I'm not finding it

Jake: Wait

Greg: Wait.

Jake: Is that his actual profile?!

Greg: holy shit, I got swiped on by the Actual Winter Soldier!?! The man hangs out with Captain America and he swiped on me!?!

Jake: He sure did, buddy! Congratulations.

Greg: Wow. The Winter Soldier

Jake: Yeah.

Greg: Crazy.

Jake: Yup. Hey, ask him if Sam Wilson is single for me.

Greg: I'll do it right now. Hes only 20 feet away--

Jake:

Greg:

Greg & Jake: SHIT!!!!!!

on another note, watched The Mummy (1999) the other day and I couldn’t help  feel like the O’Connells and the Addams (Addams Family Values (1993) would get on really well ya know? The O’Connells are basically the pastel adventure version of the Addams, surely they would just be vibin’ over tea and crumpets in an extremely haunted mansion having a ball of a time

[grumpyjesterr]

Morticia: “So what is it you do for a living my dear?”

Evelyn: “We dig up dead people who often have monstrous curses placed on them!”

Morticia: “fascinating”

[grumpyjesterr]

Gomez: *leaping out from behind a pillar which is encrusted with ominous looking runes* en garde!

Rick: *grabs sword from equally ominous looking wall full of weapons one of which seems to be glowing* fantastic I was getting a bit rusty

Gomez: *nearly in tears* oh he’s screaming nonsensically, what spirit! what reslove!

[grumpyjesterr]

*Rick and Gomez, still frantically sword fighting*

Rick: Have I mentioned how wonderful my wife is yet, I really feel like I haven’t really expanded enough on how wonderful she is

Gomez: do go on, I would be delighted to hear about how wonderful your wife is, I strongly encourge all men to extoll the virtues of their wives with rapturous praise, however I should perhaps mention my wife is in fact better

*sword fighting intensifies as both men rapturously extoll the virtues of their wives*

Jonathan and Fester and Cousin Itt watch from the bar, where Lurch and Thing are making the drinks.

[lemonsharks]

Jonathan and Thing knew one another from The War; each thought the other to be dead

Their reunion is highly emotional

[burntcopper]

Rick, whilst swordfighting:  My wife resurrected an ancient evil that brought about the plagues.

Gomez: What. A. Woman.

This isn’t for fandom or a meme. It’s real life and it hurts. On 10/31/25, my cat Parker jumped off my second floor balcony and has been missing. I had the door open for hours and she’s spent most of her life hanging out on second floor balconies. I never thought she would jump. She’s not microchipped and she wasn’t wearing her collar. I’ve posted about her locally on Nextdoor and Pawboost, as well as on lostlove.org and contacted my local shelters. But I also know the power or social media. Please share. I don’t care if you’re in Fort Worth. I just want my baby home.

Name: Parker

Gender: Female

Age: 11.5 years

Weight: 12lbs

Last seen: near Alliance Town Center in Fort Worth, Texas, 76177.

Description: Large brown and gray tabby with a light stomach, horizontal black facial and head marks. While she normally likes people, I imagine she’s very skittish as she’s an indoor only cat.

[dream-mancer]

I want to thank everyone who reblogged this post and gave suggestions on recovering my cat. I never did find Parker. I'm choosing to believe that since she is so friendly, a family picked her up, took her to a vet, saw she wasn't microchipped, and decided to adopt her. I live in a HEAVILY populated area in Fort Worth and I could only reach out to vets in a certain radius. Even the vet I normally used is outside of it, so it wouldn't surprise me if someone took her to a vet that I didn't contact. But this is the longest I've never not had a pet since I was five, and Parker was the pet I've had the longest. I got her when I bought my first house and she made the move from Arkansas to Texas with me. She's been my rock for the crazy last decade and it's been so hard not having her here, especially over the holidays.

I did not handle it well. Do as I say, not as I do. Some behavior specialist I am. I self-destructed, HARD. Like, almost required an intervention hard. What did not help is a medical emergency with my family that happened right before that that is still ongoing.

And we just had this massive ice storm in Texas. I was fully prepared for a repeat of 2021, where my apartment flooded and things were generally horrible. Luckily, the worst thing that happened is my smoke detector battery started beeping and it took an extra day for maintenance to replace it (I can do it myself, but my ceilings are so tall and I am vertically challenged and didn't have a ladder tall enough, of fucking course.)

So, yeah. Life has been rough the past four months. I'm on the upswing, though. I have amazing friends and family who have been very supported. Talking to one on the phone right now. I am also writing. Immediately after all this shit went down, I couldn't unless it was at the dentist (guess who had an emergency root canal the day before Christmas Eve? FFS, universe, leave me alone) or at random places. I have been for the last month.

Next chapter of Unstoppable will be out tomorrow or Saturday. I've also made huge headway into a fun chapter in Other Side and poured out my emotions in a 5+1 with Natasha. So thank you to everyone who cared and has sent messages. Even if I didn't respond, they did make me smile.

I still exist. Hi. I'm just never here. If I'm going to doom scroll, I'd rather do it on tiktok.

But my asks are open. I'm also on Blue Sky, which is public. Same name. Same with discord. Chat if you'd like. Sorry for all the asks and messages I've gotten over the past year and a half that didn't show up on my app. I've changed my notifications so hopefully that won't happen anymore.

I'm gonna go back to lurking on AO3 and staring at my Google Docs like I haven't been betrayed by the blinking cursor.

Messaging people for the first time is so hard. What am I supposed to say? Like, "You seem really odd and your blog intrigues me. Do you want to have philosophical conversations or perhaps talk about fictional characters?" What! Whatever. I will just follow you back and stare at your blog with my big beautiful brown eyes.

[scribe-cas]

Reblog if you're okay with people coming into your DMs with the "you seem really odd and your blog intrigues me, do you want to have philosophical conversations or perhaps talk about fictional characters"

[gingersnapwolves]

you know what else is bullshit? that car insurance doesn't cover maintenance, only accidents. for all the money I pay them you'd think they could cover fucking oil changes

[dream-mancer]

Or when someone hits your car but doesn't leave any info, it counts against your own insurance if you want to fix it. I've paid out of pocket when someone bashed my door in a parking lot because it would be cheaper in the long run than my damn premiums going up for five years.

[thenerdyindividual]

Not enough people in the teen wolf fandom engage with the fact that stiles is actually fucking insane. My man was looking for the other half of a dismembered body in the woods just for funsies in episode one. My man was out here bringing a baseball bat to an Alpha fight. My man regularly threatened to turn his werewolf buddies into fur rugs. Why are you turning him into a sweetiepiecandonowrong?

[graysparrowao3]

Turns out after discovering fanfiction I still must participate in society. Devastating news.
