Empress of Mars: Undisputed @zebratron2084@awoo.space

@frameacloud A little cursory Googling suggests these issues may apply to owls in general, though I don't know enough about barn owls to say if they'd apply to them. Granted, many of the following are true of other domesticated species (ponies are BASTARDS) and have been dealt with...

* largely nocturnal
* very little flocking/bonding instinct
* require fresh/frozen prey; difficult to feed consistently
* require disproportionately large habitats compared to other domesticable animals
* extremely messy and difficult to housetrain
* raccoon-scale destructiveness (*blush*) when bored
* violent when surprised or stressed
* comparative lack of veterinary expertise for the species
* EXTREMELY loud during mating season
* dumber than a bag of hammers O:)

@mmsword I admit I'm intrigued...

@anthracite Babe, you've been CRUSHING IT lately, even without the quarantine MP penalty. I'm so proud of you for tearing through all those commissions AND doing that gorgeous hypersaturated page of Px AND helping me so much with the plot today. 😻​

@fineursine It's OK that I heard "Tatered Tots" in the voice of Old-Timey Strong Bad, right?

@001zlnv Yeah, there's actually a ton of erotic visual novels and stuff. Not my thing, honestly, but they're there.

(OK, OK, technically *their* Kincaid is a wolfgirl and she's, like, not visibly made of plastic... but still. XD )

I'MMA SUE

@hystericempress Screw Grimes--I read the Wiki summary that Clowes comic sounds AMAZING.

@kistaro There used to be an entire series of New York magazine mail-in contests that centered around this fact. I can't think of a good example offhand, but it was major childhood nostalgia for me since they compiled them all in a book (along with many similar contest formats).

@Soreth Hey, I've been one of 262's biggest supporters! I look forward to it!

@Soreth Oh, excuse me, I mean...

:D

Fun fact: 262 is the lowest integer that doesn't have its own Wikipedia article.

Me: "Hey, kiddo. I love your mom--a lot--but I'm really getting frustrated at the fact I can't seem to make much gender, social, or spiritual progress down here in NOLA. Also weed. -_- What if...? Just what if. What if something something Seattle again. I guess that's it."

Dawn: "Stick to the plan, you asshole. Here, have a Justice. It's not for you. It's for HER."

Me: "You're absolutely right. Just checking. I can't imagine bailing on your mom anyhow. Not ever. Not only is it a moral imperative... she's cute and funny and she's giving me a comic. And she's got a nice butt. Just peeking into those alternate universes we talked about last night. Thanks, Dawn, you're a good kid."

Dawn*: "No shit. And please don't talk about Mom's butt. If I was meant to think about butts, I'd contain a Seven of Butts. Or a King of Butts. Or something."

Me: "You and I both know damn well she was probably tempted. Maybe I'll badger her into finally doing the Yiffy Vixens Tarot. You want a little sister?"

Dawn*: NO GO AWAY

*I might be putting words in Dawn's "mouth" here for comedic value. n.n;

You ever just catch a glimpse into an alternate reality portal and just... kinda avoid making eye contact with that other, happier, saner, realer you and pretend you didn't see them? Because waving, let alone reaching out to touch them, would be far more painful than you could bear?

Yeah. A dear friend of mine is celebrating one hear on HRT. And I could never harsh my genuine joy for her by saying this where she can hear it, but...

Bugger all. I hope this whole fucking timeline collapses in on itself and leaves the other one of me to live her life in peace. The last fucking thing she needs is to know about me, and how close she came to being me.

@kistaro @anthracite Have you considered adopting a small, fretful bear with a bowtie?</private_joke>

(Anthy and I have nicknamed my fretful, overly-practical side "Booboo." The Ranger doesn't like it when she forgets to pay her medical bills. -__- )
