Design gripe (hopefully amusing) 

@somekindofcrow I think this is probably what happens when you let restaurants add their own options to standardized online ordering forms.

I'm sure someone had what they considered a good reason for not just saying "Do you want us to include utensils? Y/N". I would LOVE to hear it. ;)

"Do you not want us to remove the lack of eating utensils from what your meal does not have?" awoo.space/media/--_RV48EBr3qh

Aww yes after wanting him for years I finally got the tyrannosaurus counterpart to my big triceratops plush!

And they're already getting along great!

@mawr That's why I appreciated that in this case, "yes" was a sufficient answer. I managed to avoid saying more, or even giggling about it. Barely. ;)

Well that's a new and amusing way for gender-presentation ambiguity to manifest.

Went to get flu shot at work, the form I filled out had a question:

#5: Are you pregnant or suspect you might be pregnant?

So the nurse is going through confirming my answers, like they have to do, and rather than skipping or reading that one, she just goes "And have you read #5 very carefully?"

Rarely have I witnessed such a combination of remarkable tact and remarkable awkwardness. XD

@mawr @Oneironott @IrisKalmia @KawaSeadrake *waves from all the way over here * Hey I heard something about a plushie pile?

You'd think being plush would make awkward phantom-tail stuff easier since it can just squish against a chair back or something, but it always still feels kinda awkward for me. Not sure why.

Am realizing this morning that I've been feeling really... listless... lately? I think I had a lot of mood whiplash from NM trip and Equinox and then just cold cold cold work chores drudge.

@starkatt That would be great because sometimes I wanna do deer emoticons but it's hard to find a good character for antlers. XD

I feel like I should talk about the being-a-synthetic-critter thing more often but I'm kinda not sure how?

Coyoteing 

@CoronaCoreanici I was just commenting on the similar vibe to a lot of fox-as-trickster and coyote-as-trickster stories.

Dang it got cold out fast.

I guess it is time to start carrying my hot water thermos everywhere again.

Plush critters like me seem to be bad at temperature regulation. >.<

@literorrery I'm just trying to fit in with the Mastodoners with their . ;)

@starkatt i don't have any resources immediately handy, but as I recall, it's about what you'd expect. :)

@starkatt (Of course, scavenger/psychopomp is an easy thing to derive in the first place)

@starkatt Also consider jackals. And the trickster/psychopomp connection that is sometimes a thing. ;)
