Demand-Side Sheepdog
That Weird Chicago Submarine Lady; also, a literal coyote who can type. Writing dog, history geek; she/her/DOG/etc. Romance at short notice is my specialty; deep space is my dwelling place, but I keep a flat in Berlin. Solidarity forever!
- A Canticle for Leibowitz
- Ohhh that is such a good choice <3
- The worst invention in history is the one where you can be on a redeye and watch your ability to get any sleep before work in the morning slowly evaporate on a moving map. After that, I think maybe atomic weapons. Oh and the Boston Dynamic cop robots, them too. Please tranquilize me >.>
- *tranq-darts* ....no, wait, sorry, there was a mixup, that was a caffeine dart.
- ...what :c
- Would it surprise you to learn that I own a tranquilizer rifle?
- Only if it isn't capable of being fired underwater and acquired for your hobby of tagging... god, I do not know. Barracuda? Giant squid?
- On a plane now! I am as-ever impressed by the ability of the staff and volunteers to pull off an experience like this. Full credit to them for all their hard work <3 it is such a good con and I’m so glad I could make it!
- Furry Weekend Atlanta 2025 is a wrap! 🎉 Thanks to every fuzzy face, friend, fan, and family member who made this year unforgettable. From the dance floor to the dealer’s den, y’all brought the magic. 💖 See you in 2026! #FWA2025 #FurryWeekendAtlanta
- The thing about public spaces in conventions is they’re good for only two things, people-watching and writing absolute filth while looking Respectable, and since most folks at FWA seem to be in the dance comp I think it must be time to craft some otter smut.
- Otter smut!? 👀
- It has to happen sometimes!
- Being a dance dog is the /best/, don't care how bad I am at it. But I need a shower and my suit desperately needs cleaning, so going to have to wait for AC for more. I'm glad it's soon, I wouldn't make it long without more of this.
- YES EXACTLY
- …On reflection, Star Trek was prescient, too, in how you have to talk to the computer like a person. Who often has the wrong answer. And how whenever it tells you it’s not allowed to do something—which is also common—everyone knows an extremely trivial trick to make it do that thing anyway.
- This year is attempt #2 at re-wilding our yard somewhat. Spent the weekend working on the front yard. Hoping that we can get some nice wildflowers growing out there and make a meadow of it.
- A meadow with a dog in it? (hopeful)
