Hehehe. Amazing birb names. There was a woodcock in my parents yard one winter. It was so cute! Took us a couple of minutes to figure out what bird it was, we'd never seen it before. It was so busy out there. First it completely flattened itself like a dead leaf when it saw my dad, then when it felt safe, it started fanning it feathers out like a miniature turkey and rotating, it did a little display. (Not sure if it was a mating dance or something else but very cute.) We didn't see it do the walk. But ever since that encounter and after learning they do a little jiggling dance when they walk (via youtube), they are one of my favourite birds now.

I have no idea, but I heard that AI is getting very good at mimicking real people, and that freaks me out as someone with autism since I give off an uncanny valley vibe and my speech can be pretty monotone or stilted at times. Oh God, they're gonna think I'm a robit. :(

Omg. That's so much worse. What the fck, Melbourne? (.-.)

It must scream but it has no mouth. :(

Oh god that poor thing. Man, I don't know man. :( I just remembered that Quote from the last Unicorn, only instead of trapping them inside a girl they trapped them inside a box. "You've lost them. They'll go mad in there!"

Also Trump: Has anyone seen my tan spray? Sir, you left it in the fridge again. Here. That's not it, that's barbecue sauce!

Just being here has felt freeing in and of itself. No ads omg. It's beautiful. I like the slower pace here too, it doesn't bother me to see the same post on the main page from a few days ago. I think it's a nice break for my senses actually.
