Challenge #02844-G287: Therapy For Monsters

I’ve been wondering how the Galactic Alliance treats pedophiles who want help with, well, not being pedophiles anymore… – Anon Guest

[AN: Eliminating pedophilia in its entirety begins with not normalising the sexualisation of younger bodies, infantilising sex play(and partners), the eradication of most, if not all, adult characteristics in adult partners, and so on. Once it’s not culturally normalised, the entire predilection may also vanish. So let’s take this as a statistical anomaly in the future of my dreams]

The first step to getting help with a problem is recognising it as a problem. Throughout history, people like Van had justified their appetites by pointing at a distant point in the past when it was all allegedly perfectly normal.

Pre-shattering Humans pointed to the Medieval lords. Medieval lords pointed to the ancient Romans, who pointed to the Greeks, who pointed to another distant people less able to defend themselves. Back and back and back, to before the time of the written word. It was never normal. It was people who only cared to take what they wanted, who used the actions of other such statistical outliers to justify what they did.

At least Van was willing to admit she was a monster. At least she was willing to state as much in her own words and out of her own mouth. Worse monsters would jump through hoops and history to make their lusts perfectly normal. I was sure to tell Van as much. She had taken the first step. As a Therapist, it is my job to help her through all the subsequent steps.

Fifty Ways to Help an Artist

Welcome, dear readers, to Wordpress Wednesdays. This leaves me more time on the weekends. Which I need because reasons.

InterNutter.org is down?

I need y’all to do me a quick favour and go check my hub site for me. I’m getting a 502 error [bad gateway] and so is MeMum. If y’all are getting that error too, I know that downforeveryone is giving me horseshit about the site actually being live.

So please go to https://www.internutter.org and if it’s live, get back to me.

Thanks much.

Weird-arse question

I know loads of people dream about their teeth falling out.

What does it mean if you dream about plugging them back in?

Like for realsies. I had this dream last night and I distinctly remember plugging my teeth into my mouth through holes in my gums. It didn’t hurt or anything, it just felt strange. It was like a normal thing in my dream.

I even joked with my family, with only my front incisors in. Don’t ask me the joke, I don’t remember. I just remember messing about and my family acting like I’d done this a billion times before.

…but what does it mean?

He doesn’t malfunction often so I imagine he’s pretty confused when he does. Good thing he’s mister calm, cool and collected. Most the time.

I’ve got my eyes on the Reef

Please sign this petition to get the Great Barrier Reef listed as a World Heritage Site. You can have a hand in stopping Scabbott from ploughing it all under so he can sell more coal.

I have a problem

Entries into the writing contest need some splash art.

1200 by 420 pixels.

For each story.

I’m planning on putting in ALL my short stories (except RTFM, that’s in the slush pile at Andromeda Space Flight Magazine) and excerpts from my novels,

That’s a lot of art.

And I have the compositional skills of a dead whelk.

And I’m stony broke. I can’t afford to pay anyone. All I can offer is my writing.

I promise. Anything you concoct has got to be better than my pathetic efforts.

So… this is happening.

I know most folks like to celebrate 200 followers with a give-away. My problem is that I’m primary parental for two kids [also having their first day back to school tomorrow] and my laptop has just died.

I have zip to give away. And zero money to send it with even if I did have something.

What do I do?

What the flip do I do?
