WtA thoughts, please poke holes in this if you know the lore
Weretype is determined by temperment/destiny/whatever else (in other words, player choice)
Auspice (if your weretype has one) is determined by when you changed, which itself is usually tied to some defining emotional moment (a bite can kindle the spark, but it ignites fully on its own).
Tribe/camp/etc is generally self-chosen based on ideology. Factions still bicker for the same reasonable and unreasonable reasons, of course.
@Jssra wheeee... I hope it passes quickly! <3
@Jssra mine are these like huge rabbit antenna ears--my userpic cuts them off halfway up. XD every so often I get the "but I'm a saurian, they didn't have big ol' ears" and then I remember "cartilage doesn't fossilize well, so MAYBE THEY DID." and then I think of Tyrannosaurus with these huge flappy elephant ears, and then I remember the drawing somebody did of a Trex with sparrow plumage that is a GIANT BALL OF FLUFF and I can't stop giggling...

begging, so sorry…
I don't like to beg… I feel guilty.

My girlfriend had the phone I gave to her in person as a gift stolen on the metro today. I want to replace it.
I'm in the middle of an unplanned move after taking a trip to see her last month. I'm near broke. I will be for a while until I pay off debt.
It's not going to be anything fancy. A used Nexus 6P.
If you can help, I would appreciate it…

uspol/Bannon/note of caution
if it becomes hostile, even THAT could be a calculated move in a way -- if the determination was that "too much" racism isn't okay but they may think that the super loud racists decrying the administration will make the administration seem more sympathetic somehow
but I think it's likely that Bannon's just fed up with not getting as much race war as he wanted, TBH
"actions speak louder than words"
it's one of those things that ignores that speaking IS an action
and plenty of shitbags like to say it to make themselves feel better about being shitbags, because, sure, they're open queerphobes or Gamergaters or whatever, but they send money to the ACLU or Child's Play or something, so ACTIONS matter more, because they can interpret their ACTIONS to feel like a good person
anything but actually look at themselves and trying out "not being a fuckhead"
uspol/Bannon/note of caution
I'm seeing conflicting reports of whether Bannon is really "out" or is being strategically and willingly relocated. the only way to know for sure is if the tenor of the Breitbart media garbage changes. if it becomes hostile to 45, then yes, he was fired. if not, then the mucus trail is still connected, and he's still a powerful influence on 45's administration, even if he isn't physically present in the House itself.
werewolves
@vahnj @indi I actually dreamed about this. there were two brothers, one was a wolfwere, the other was a wolf who got turned by a vampire and was a vampire-wolf, he could shift into a werewolf-like anthro form but was in wolf form most of the time. they bickered a lot but still loved each other as brothers. it was dark and kind of sweet at the same time. XD
@Jacel ugh, that sounds awesome. :D
politics/discourse
@literorrery @vahnj aaaaaah. got it. yeah, that's... gross. :| I haven't been to rallies/demonstrations because of health reasons which have managed to magically crop up RIGHT BEFORE the things happen, but yeah, I need to get my butt out there more often.
