>threw away a couple of really grody balls that the raccoons had been chewing on
that part made me smile SO MUCH

current mood: looking at former Eastern Bloc light rail stations for work; feeling (platonically) nostalgic about @acetone_kitten
re: mood (+)
@Leucrotta Mars isn't really a beer planet, tho. Mars is more of an "everclear, catnip shatterwax, and a whole salmon" kind of planet. =^___^=
re: mood (+)
Plus, this morning I washed with Dr. Bronner's and the insides of my eyeballs still feel, taste, smell, look, and sound like peppermint. So I got that goin' for me, which is nice!

Man, being the old fart who's constantly out of the loop is... pretty awesome.
I have no polycule, no kink life to manage and no libido to drive it, no idea what the fuck is going on in The Current Youth Discourse, no idea whatsoever what gender you'd consider me, not a single song on the Top 10 charts I recognize, precisely *one* dragon to fret over, and no drama whatsoever.
I'd forgotten how good boredom could be, and I am feeling like one very smug and comfortable greymuzzle today. Hell, I'm even thinking about investing in a Martian IRA* plan. :D
(*"one fish nao, ten fish l8r")
Also, I just want to assure all you dragons that I feel no need for envy over your species getting a holiday. Every day that nobody gets devoured is Appreciate A Tiger Day. =^____^=
@anthracite is a pretty good dragon. 15/10. Would and do pet. The other dragons I know are also much appreciated, but I know a lot of quality dragons and I'm not getting paid to do a freakin' magic lizard census here. 😽❤️
re: A simultaneously exciting and horrifying thought
@mawr I still have most of my MUCK logs from 1997-2015. Over 1500 files in all.
They are _cringe_. n__n;
postfurry, headcanon, solar politics
New 12Fold headcanon:
In the early days of planetary independence, a particularly cunning Mooncat made a proposition to the Martian tigers: "We both need leverage against the Terrans, and if there's one thing we know about humans, they love their stereotypes*. You pretend to be dumb and aggressive, we'll step in and be the voice of reason, and we'll split the foreign aid 50-50 under the table."
The entire Martian-Lunar "War" is a huge artwar setup, like the "religious persecution" in Cat's Cradle. But instead of having forgotten it's all a scam, both sides are just having too much fun to stop. They can't freakin' believe it's working. (Er, then their scholars point at the Trump Era-- and they shrug, nod, and giggle.) Over time, both sides' masquerade roles have shifted based on what they need out of the Terrans.
Therefore, as part of the put-on, Martian propaganda broadcasts of Rezy's time consist largely of things like my previous toot. The Terrans have bought into the charade completely, and have gone from seeing Martians as dangerous, barbaric warriors to cute, bumbling cartoon kitties who can't even manage their own planet. The fish donations should start rolling in by the kiloton any day now...
*(The irony of this was lost on the Mooncat, but not on us. But ve wasn't wrong...)
> Guess which scenario I've been bonking my head against for the past few months?
"Gee, Brain, is it the one where we put bowler hats on all the pigeons and tried to convince everybody the British had invaded?"
