@lizardsquid I like two right-hand pictures best (#2 and #3 clockwise). They provide more visual distinctness from each other, while still being pleasant on the eyes.
CW: Family, IED
My poor mom just sent me a link to a wikihow article for "Dealing with People with IED" (Intermittent Explosive Disorder).
It makes me sad because that's definitely what my Dad has, and also her looking up on wikihow to figure out how to handle it just makes me want to wilt.
@catoutofbed@octodon.social Hmmmmmm...
So in primatology (and zoology in general, but especially primatology because primates tend to do* this), sometimes the siblings of a parent will take care of the parent's kiddos instead of having their own. They're called "alloparents".
I know this is combining suffixes and prefixes in a way that doesn't actually make sense, but "allobee" sounds really cute.
Pibling is good too. :3
@catoutofbed@octodon.social also auncle sounds like ankle. No thanks.
Can we brainstorm something better??
@vahnj Is awoo.space set to the Queen's English? I keep getting spell check for American spellings of words like "flavor" and "honor". Not a problem, I'm just curious!
@snoothy@a.weirder.earth I looked through their architecture page. Apparently one building is named the Ithiel Town Building. It's named after its designer, but even Ithiel sounds more angelic and would be a better bird name than Phil.
Honestly it looks like a really cool and weird place. I love me some strange art installations. I'm not big on Christianity of any flavor, but this place looks like it could be worth a curiosity visit.
@snoothy@a.weirder.earth I don't! I'm a California native who hasn't even visited New York state before.
But let's all just take a moment and enjoy the pun you accidentally just made there. *wings*
@Doshirae Hello quality borb. Be friends, us?
@tom I do this all the time too.
@snoothy@a.weirder.earth I saw that too, but couldn't they honor those people with wings of the church instead? The peacocks need names like Soleil and Illume, or maybe angel names like Izrail
and Seraphiel (since it's a church).
@snoothy@a.weirder.earth Omg, that's hilarious. The peacocks go by Jim, Harry, and Phil. Who named them?! and can we take their naming privileges away??
@Efi Ah yeah, that's a pretty understandable thing to be mad about.
@Efi Hmm, context?
@snoothy@a.weirder.earth I would counter that a peacock garden in the middle of New York City is also a wondrous alternate dimension?
Hi friends! I took a nap and now I'm back. Woo~
I took almost this whole week off running because I was sick. I'm going to start up my "16 runs in 4 weeks" plan again tomorrow though, in the hopes of earning my reward of dance classes.
Anyway, what's everyone up to today?
@ruth OMG. <3 good.
real talk
@Efi @clairec@chitter.xyz
Try again. You'll be surprised by how many queer folks there are out there.
Right now 2 cool humans are trying to talk you up. 2 is a lot!
