FIGHTING WORDS!

“Miss?” FIGHTING WORDS!

Back from the gym, did some baking and about to take bub for a walk as soon as the brownies pop from the oven

Hey, Rae. 😉

Hi, Rae!

I’m a monster- Max got (slightly) hurt on my watch. I put him on his playmat and dared leave the room to go for a quick wee- only to hear heartrending shrieks and barks. Best I can tell, he kicked his feet, kitten attacked his feet, and Bae scared off the kitten (which may have caused the scratch rather than the play attack)

Poor bub.

Oh dear!

his first battle wound!

Didn’t break the skin, but I still feel TERRIBLE

Awwww!

Now he belongs to the kitten. He is marked, part of the pride.

No no, this will be a story you can use when he's older "I left you with the wolves overnight, and you survived" "What?" "Well, kinda"

Ha! That works better if he has a battle scar

Hopefully he doesn’t until he fights his own battles!

aw, bebe

hey catnik

Timing is a thing. I have to get off the computer soon.

NP 🙂

Athena!

G Glad you liked

oh, I am intrigued by Rowan.

NB EIluned troll wilder?

Yeah, she's coming to life a little faster than I expected.

Sorry, THEY'RE coming to life. Need to check myself.

Pardon my own use of she then if I got that wrong

They might be a she/they, depending on mood/day

See...THAT I don't get. The point of the she/her, he/him, they/them is because one is the subject form and one is the object form. With she/they, they're both subject forms! That's not how pronouns work!

Sorry, minor rant. Jumping off soapbox, and going to switch over the laundry.

Later all!

She/they is shorthand for BOTH she/her & they'them

Later, Rahne!

Ah, thanks, Catnik. I did wonder

We have a lot of NB & trans kids in our department, I've got a decent grasp of the nuances

Be necessity nod

All the they/thems I know I've met online, that I know of. The South isn't really embracing the terms much as i hate to lend credence to sterotypes on that

I am kind of Proud that "Y'all" has proven useful though!

hee

I think it is likely less safe for them to be out in TN

And a number of my kids I need to deadname or misgender them if their parents are around

Oh yes. I mean, I don't want to think that but I fear it maybe true. Even if 50% of Tennesseans would at most roll their eyes, and 45% go along with it supportively, that FIVE percent that might do harm... it's not worth rolling the dice

yup

It's why I don't fly Georgia bulldog colors!

jk on that but still
