BONES DON’T READ THIS ok this one’s for spock. you know how you always say fascinating and you’re like “fascinating” and sometimes you’re like “fascinating” and you raise your eyebrow and you’re thinking “fascinating” and ok bones isn’t reading this anymore i definitely touched some flowers on the away mission when bones made me promise not to. my hand is purple and kinda glowing. we gotta fix this

Hi, I had a creative writing teacher who told me that reading was only for smart people and laughed when I suggested otherwise, she also told the class that when we had to consider our audience when we were writing and that we had to dumb down what we wrote “in case the people reading has no culture”… do you have things like these on your mind when you write? does the “intended audience” influences your work at all?

My intended audience for something I write is nearly always me. Just an alternate universe version of me, who didn’t write it.

one thing I never see anyone take into account is the fact that Hogwarts must be crawling with cats. you’re allowed to bring either a cat, an owl, or a toad. if we assume only 1/3 of the students bring cats with them, that’s still, like, HUNDREDS OF CATS.

#and how many of those cats were spayed or neutered??#are there rules about spaying/neutering your cat and when were those rules made if so?#do the teachers remember the ‘great kitten infestation of 65?#where they had not just hundreds of cats at hogwarts but HUNDREDS OF KITTENS#so many kittens the students come to hogwarts with a cat and come home with an armful of them#teachers are given kittens#mcgonagall walking into class carrying a kitten#kittens chasing after dumbledore’s robes in the great hall#playpens in the common rooms for kittens#kittens everywhere
