@Leucrotta I love the color of his eyes, I wonder if they're going to lighten into the usual yellow, or change into something else entirely, or stay this shade?
@001zlnv @anthracite YARNBOAT 4: THE BOATYARNENING
@anthracite for me, E3 has always been Just Another Event I Don't Pay Attention To, like the Superb Owl or Father's Day. :P I don't have the context to know if it's changed over the years, for better or worse...
@hummingrain he is so handsome. I often forget to comment on your pictures, but I enjoy them greatly, and Jerry is just such a striking reptile. <3
@001zlnv he is so tiny! when he is annoyed he makes tiny annoyed noises, but when he's happy his purr is FIVE TIMES THE SIZE OF HIS BODY. I don't know how he does it.
also I believe I just saw a Cooper's hawk swoop past my window, possibly missing a grab at another bird. I heard the "snap" of a quick-flapping wing and saw it glide past; about the size of a crow, but identifiably brown. pretty sure that'd be one of the parents, shopping for lunch for the kids they've got nesting close by again this summer. yay! :D
meet the newest member of the family, on his first full day at home! Raziel came from PAWS, is 2 months old, likes exploring, playing, cuddles, exploring, sleeping, cuddles, playing, food, and exploring, and purrs like a buzzsaw on overdrive. he's just over 2 lbs, has a vet appointment on Friday (but is in excellent health), and his markings remind me very much of a spotted skunk.

@kara@occult.camp a villain who tries to make me think about complicated stuff when I've just woken up. o_____o
though it's probably just because I've seen the relevant material lately, I'd say Thanos (as portrayed in the Infinity War movie, I'm not familiar with the comic canon)--brilliant, complex, caring, interesting and interested--but like before he came up with his "50% of everyone should die" thing, you're searching for a solution, but I can see you being that driven once you find one.
@noelle I see Kool-Aid Man!
dream, friendly/aggressively recruiting group mind
one of the other Stage 1 hosts was a teenage girl who was burbling that she'd just joined for the concert, it was going to be AMAZING, absolutely EVERYBODY would be there, and after that she's just quit! we all laughed at her, very gently and kindly, and I dreamily (because I was dreaming) explained that she was in the group mind now, and there was no going back and away, only forward and deeper...
dream, friendly/aggressively recruiting group mind
the group mind had gotten me with a physical virus, in the early stages of development (one of their "drones" had stabbed me in a fight). by now it was on the second stage of spreading, via memetic devices, both random (posters in public areas) and directed ("go tell all your friends!"). the hive node was preparing for the third stage of infection, which was happening in a couple of days--a memetic signal in a massively popular televised concert.
dream, friendly/aggressively recruiting group mind
like the CW says. I'd been "recruited" into the group mind, but I was still in stage 1, my mind was being integrated but I was still individual enough to feel attached to my body. I came to the local hive node because I was feeling physically distressed, and they cheerfully took me in, wrapped me in a warm blanket (which felt AMAZING), and put me in a quiet room with other stage 1 semi-individuals, and we talked a bit.
@zebratron2084 @Leucrotta whatever the ingredients, it ends up getting strained through a black fishnet stocking with big holes.
