- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.

Speaking of touching hair, this isn't really related but what are you supposed to do when holding a baby?
Like I held my family members baby the other day at Thanksgiving and my brain just defaulted to petting their nearly bald head like my cat ๐ญ
I think that's normal, actually. Little kids like affection and caressing their bald head qualifies. I'm not sure what age that ends, though.
I'm over 30 but I still like it when my gf gives me head scritches/scalp massages. So I guess never for some?
My wife will hiss at me if I don't caress her hair before sleepytime. I may have married a cat.
Does scratching behind ears work?
I think that will get me bitten
Could be fun
If she starts vibrating that means it is working
I don't have kids, but a friend of mine that does commented I sway while carrying a cat in the way someone holding a baby does.
I guess that's more proof part of the domestication that went on with cats is that they somehow signal "baby" to our minds.
It makes sense it goes the other way too.
Either that or chew on its ear. That is normal, right?
