Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.

Our Rules:

  1. Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.

  2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

  3. Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.

  4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

  5. No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

Kids? I'd fucking love to read it. Brilliant fucking premise.

That's actually surprisingly clever. Some people spend 40 years writing paying novels and never come up with anything half as creative as that.

IKR? If the execution is half as good as the premise, they are sitting on the next Goosebumps/ Babysitters Club series for popularity.

[–] GeekMan@sh.itjust.works 31 points 1 year ago

I strongly encourage you to write that.

Perhaps Wattpad.com?

Their mom was wrong. That does sound like a fun series.

[–] Domille@sh.itjust.works 26 points 1 year ago

Kids? I would eat that shit up. I am almost 40.

Those warriors cat books were surprisingly enjoyable to read in my youth, wonder if they still hold up today

This is why I try not to tell my kid how I feel about his stuff; even if I think he’s being weird, someone else might end up loving them for them later on, and I would hate to rob that from them.

[–] phx@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

Yeah exactly. What to do adult might just seem weird and part of an obsession (and likely is) can still be an idea what other kids would go crazy over and be worth a lot!

[–] elscallr@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

Everyone interesting is weird in some way. I don't have kids, but I've got nieces and nephews. I tell them all the time weird people are the interesting ones.

I don't know if it's because of that or because Gen Z is pretty accepting of weird shit in general, but they're all pretty comfortable being little weirdos.

[–] AnUnusualRelic@lemmy.world 17 points 1 year ago

It would probably sell well with cats.

[–] Jackolantern@lemmy.world 16 points 1 year ago

That’s a great premise for a story op

[–] Kecessa@sh.itjust.works 15 points 1 year ago

Can't wait for someone else to steal the idea and start a series!

[–] Player2@sopuli.xyz 11 points 1 year ago

Warrior cats + FNAF murder soul transfer. Sounds intriguing

[–] CaptPretentious@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago

Ranma 1/cat

[–] Getallen@feddit.nl 8 points 1 year ago

lmfao imagine a visual novel of this

[–] viperex@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

This is a great idea
