I hope others don't misconstrue my emoticon as a smiley with a teardrop, since an asterisk is sometimes used for this. That asterisk is my smiley's nose, and he is very proud of it. >:*O

Just as well, I quite enjoy the calls of a mourning dove. What a beautiful bird.

I wonder if coffee would make this day better. It hasn't been particularly bad, but coffee can make a lot of things better.

I've made a short questionnaire for those with Systems in order to get to know an alter better. This can be useful and accessible for the host and other alters within said system and a good spot to keep basic info.

Please enjoy and share if you would like. :*) You can save separate copies for each alter. There are no triggering topics or questions included for your consideration.

Basically, I popped out and am now dealing with a reasonable amount of pain. Our body hurts also. My eyes are burning. Lord knows what happened today... It's probably for the better that our host did that. He wouldn't have unless he felt he needed to.

I feel a little bad I didn't know today was a sour day for him. But we can be here for him now. That's what matters.

Our host found a way to shove himself out of front and cause another to be pushed forward. It happened to be me, whether by choice or not I have no idea.

I wish I could say I found it impressive, since I am the gatekeeper. And I suppose it is... But our head really hurts after the harsh jostling.

I really did pin all my frustrations into Met Gala with this post. I can't say it's undeserved, though at the time of posting this I was stressed. Ah well.

Met Gala feels so cruel to me as a concept. A small few get to have lavish festivity while those in squalor watch from far below with dazzled eyes, wool upon them all the while. Up on a haughty pedestal of wealth and over-ego.

Truly a dystopian atmosphere. Leave me out of it.

Time to re-toot the cable box, as they say. At least I have to say it, anyway.

Also, hello to those on here! We have... been having some issues as a system, new things and new (bad) items pertaining to our host. But all will be well in time. Or at least, a little better. I believe so.

When the cable box needs resetting and starts up again, it displays the word "boot". But the display is slightly off, and does not spell that anymore. Can you take a guess of what it says?

Toot. The answer is Toot. Our cable box has to re-toot.

I also drew Gloomy for K. I do hope lith will like it; I will leave it here as a surprise. :*) @kiskoul

I have not shared with you here that I created a character named Caterwaul. He is my magnum opus.

POV: You are Christian. You decide to open a Bible of your choice and laxly read through various passages. You begin reading obscene paragraphs filled with misogyny and therefore the encouragements of hyper masculinity. Among other Holy atrocities.

You close your book and just decide to actually just be a good man, and that some pages in a book are not always reliable.

Dinosaurs.... that is all.

I am a lean, but not particularly mean, protector fronting machine.

I also ate a cheeseburger. It was good.

Odyn's cheerio sheep. :*)

The concept of emoticons being sentient and having thought is intriguing, but also a tad horrifying. This is how we gained The Emoji Movie and I must say, that was an atrocity on mankind.

Mustaches are itchy and inconvenient. And then I would perhaps have to invest in a mustache comb; the mere miniature status of such would cause me to lose all masculinity. I cannot own a barbie doll sized comb and simultaneously have my male identity intact. /j

"I just don't think beards look good without the mustache."

... I have a beard with no mustache.

And frankly, they would have chose it no matter what you had said. Their goal is to make you want to shrink down so they can tower. You cannot control how others will react to your own truths. You can only choose and learn to react with poise in the face of a manipulator. And, if setting a realistic boundary upsets said manipulator; that is fine enough of an indicator to leave the situation immediately. No matter how much one would stomp their childish feet at it. "No" is a full sentence.
