I also sometimes just name them the most relevant name of the time. I dream of a movie character and the result is me wondering why I dreamed of him with the name 'He Should Not Be In My Dreams'. XD
Beats my long names. Crescent sounds like a nice name, no matter what.

I mean I have a Spinda named "Peas" and a Gulpin named "Not now" so you can really see which Pokémon I wanted and which ones I grudgingly caught

so I would estimate I'm probably about 1/5 of the way through the 3000 page thing
sorry for being so slow with this one; I did not anticipate my own ability to be this lazy

also I'm in pain but it's 100% (or should I say 86%) worth it
we went to a candy store and you could choose which gummy bears to put in the bag but it was a scoop so it was really hard to scoop just the red bears into the bag but I did it…I got about 25 red gummy bears and ate them just now…I could taste the PoisonTM on them but they were still good

more petty whining next year it's going to be expected that I tell people my pronouns when I meet them, and while I do think that's a good thing to do, there's one problem
I don't know
like, the reason I leave pronouns off my profile is because I don't know what ones are good
I'm sure people will understand if I just say "not sure, maybe they/them but I don't really know"
but I'm still worried because I want to fit in but I just don't know which ones to say…I don't know

oh yeah remember the Three United stuff (old characters)? I forgot to talk about some of them Sleetfoot: The ShadowClan deputy, Nightfoot's sister, supposed killer of Rosetalon. (Remember that Nightfoot is the actual killer of Rosetalon and that Rosetalon was the now-deceased evil mother of the main character.) Knows her history well. To get under Ivystar's skin, when she finds Swiftpaw, Blackpaw, and Flamepaw on ShadowClan territory (spying on their camp…?), she has them held prisoner and makes Ivystar give them a bundle of catmint in exchange for each apprentice. Gray and white with…teal eyes? She was one of my favorite characters just for existing.
Slushfoot: A WindClan warrior, one of the ones who fell for Solstice's rhetoric. (Remember that Solstice is a descendant of Sol hoping to destroy the Clans since Sol failed.) I decided I liked her name, so she would eventually have been reformed and either become a respected warrior or died a noble death (I never decided or got that far in the writing). She was a young warrior, mottled gray-and-white, probably with green eyes.
Orangetail: Another young WindClan warrior who fell for Solstice's rhetoric. I hated him and his name. He was all orange, probably with yellow eyes.
Quickleap: A third young WindClan warrior who fell for Solstice's rhetoric. He was white with a gray streak down his back and probably green eyes. I never decided whether I was going to redeem him or not. My guess is that he would have died after realizing he was wrong but before accomplishing anything.
There was a fourth one, but I forget their name. They were probably dark brown. I almost want to say Butterflytail, but I feel like I wasn't recycling characters from the Model Magic days? Butterflytail and Orangetail were siblings (with a third sibling who I forget) from SkyClan from the Model Magic universe.
Shady: Smoky. He was gray. Not sure if Smoky is gray or black, but I would guess also gray.
Wheat: Floss, but cream instead of white. Is Floss white? I would think so, anyway.
Tiny: Shady and Wheat's tiny black daughter. Had nothing to do with Scourge in-universe, although obviously I named her that because of him. The reason I say "8, 9, or 11" cats went on the journey is because for a short time I planned for Maple and Tiny to go along on it.
Maple: Shady and Wheat's brown tabby son.
After being exiled for not liking Solstice, Ravenwing finds shelter at the horseplace. Shady and Wheat are afraid of Clan cats, and at first they're going to fight her off to keep her away from their kits, but she convinces her to let them stay. After Solstice has been dealt with for good, she decides to keep living at the horseplace, but she has gotten back a sense of loyalty to WindClan and will sometimes hunt with them for their benefit.
Sun…storm?: ShadowClan cat, Dusktalon's brother, Nightfoot's son. Pretty good at fighting. Swiftpaw/wing finds him attractive but also intimidating, and she grows out of her crush pretty soon after becoming a warrior. He has bright golden fur and ice blue eyes.
Moon…pelt? whisker?: Dusktalon and Sun…storm?'s dappled gray sister. Spindly but stronger than she looks.
Silkheart: Swiftwing's apprentice, a very soft gray she-cat with green eyes and long teeth. Evil?
Silkheart had two siblings, at least one of whom was a tom. I think the brother might have been named Darkwhisker or something. Blackpool mentored him.
After learning that Blackpool was a place, I changed his name to Blacktuft, but Ashtail got extremely mad (to the point where I was lectured for upsetting her, since my parents didn't know what it was that I had done), so I changed it back to Blackpool.
Did I mention Muddytoes? He was a black and brown ShadowClan warrior and the first cat to contract the illness.

M&Ms just taste so much better when they're "wrong" colors
I'm eating M&Ms that are dark green, teal, navy blue, and lavender and they're So Good

I want crunchy macaroni but I don't think we have any macaroni other than the gross microwave bowls (store brand 3 cheese bowls are good; Kraft normal bowls are bad)

Apr 29, 2017 – 22 cats as dogs, I know nothing about dogs, somewhat referenced #1 Stonefrost – Basenji 1.9% basenjis are the quiet dogs right? also, important: I could not find a pencil sharpener, and all of my brown pencils are heavily used, so the colors are a bit off #2 Anemonetail – Corgi 1.43% corgis are fun #3 Spiderfang – Pug 3.17% okay I know the squished faces hurt them but pugs are still silly #4 Whimbrelsong – Shiba Inu 0.43% yes I know this is the doge meme dog but they’re also really cute dogs (tangent: turns out shiba inus are pretty small, actually, and akita inus are the size I thought shiba inus were) #5 Nighttail – Boston Terrier 5.13% one time Adderbite and I found a dog named Jill and eventually managed to find her home…we think Jill was a Boston terrier/French bulldog mix (also I didn’t reference this one) #6 Jacarandapetal – Yorkie 1.27% this is what they look like right??? #7 Adderbite – Greyhound 15.9% she likes to call dogs tall so I made her a tall dog #8 Copperpelt – Dachshund 0.93% I was already going to make him a dachshund but then Adderbite also told me to make him a dachshund so #9 Lynxtuft – Dogo Argentino 2.07% had to google “strong dog” to find this one #10 Zorilstripe – Doberman Pinscher 0.4% I guess? #11 Lorisleap – Dalmatian 1.17% a long time ago I had a babysitter with a very nice Dalmatian #12 Chipmunkfur – Collie 0.9% collies are cool #13 Cinnamontuft – New Guinea Singing Dog 0.57% once I saw something on the TV (probably Dogs 101) about New Guinea singing dogs and I thought they looked nice #14 Hollyfrost – Scottish Terrier 22.5% my neighbor used to have a Scottie and it was one of three dogs I wasn’t afraid of (also I didn’t reference this one) #15 Locustfang – Poodle 1.83% I almost googled “curly dog” but then I remembered poodles existed #16 Driftspots – Rottweiler 1.5% a lot of people find them intimidating but they’re still nice dogs #17 Jaggedtuft – Papillon 3.87% haha fluffy ears…this is probably Snazzy Jaggedtuft (also I didn’t reference this one) #18 Ruestep – French Bulldog 1.4% this was the last one to be colored in so my pencils were basically dead by then #19 Ashtail – Pomeranian 4.57% I showed her the drawing before putting her name on it from across the room and she said “me” so it looks like I chose well (also I didn’t reference this one) #20 Brindlefoot – Curly Coated Retriever 0.83% I googled “swimming dogs” for this one #21 Tealwhisker – Husky 0.6% when I asked what the best dog was she said a wolf and huskies look a lot like wolves #22 Myotissong – Chihuahua 1.63% annoying, endearing, or both? you decide

speaking into the void: nice
know what a cool place is? anechoic chamber: the walls are covered in spikes that look like foam but feel like rough concrete, and as the name implied, it does not echo; some are designed to prevent electromagnetic "echoing" as well (purpose: testing antennae, etc.)

I'm not even a wordy person but those boxes were not big enough! 250 words? for those questions?
I'd say "ridiculous" but I guess that is probably part of the point here
hopefully my answers are detailed enough despite two of them being vastly trimmed to become 250 words exactly

aw Cobaltwhisker was nominated (senior superlatives) for "Best Smile" and Adderbite and I voted for him (genuinely, but not that we would be above playing favorites if it hadn't been genuine) but it turns out he hates his smile and is upset because he won…I feel bad now poor Cobaltwhisker

I am taking what could be considered (but really isn't at all) a hiatus from drawing comics in order to go back through every comic in which I speak (with Mistral font) and replacing it with normal font (Lucida Bright)
as of last checkpoint I am about 14% through and I just started tonight so it's barely going to make a difference in what passes for the "schedule" around here but I thought it was worth putting up here
because I am fairly close to finishing the next set of 25 it is possible I will decide to finish that set and upload them here before I have finished replacing my text, but who knows

Finally figured out why I didn't need a psychiatrist until I was 16. Shoutout to my old piano teacher. I had to quit due to scheduling conflicts and didn't like piano enough to find another teacher, but for eight years it was like Bonus Therapy every Tuesday. Nice

last night I dreamed I went to this place in the woods because we were going to hike even though it was scheduled to rain while we would be out
Myotissong, Darterfang, and Jacarandapetal were there, and so was the cool physics guy from the summer (in comics, gray with lighter gray muzzle and pale yellow eyes); that guy was leading the second hike, for all the people who didn't leave at 1:00 on the dot
but also instead of a shirt I was wearing two pink nightgowns, one over the other (the top one was what I was actually wearing in the real world)

Adderbite saw Wednesday Shirt at goodwill but he was limping like he was really hurt and he bumped into her and didn't even seem to recognize her? I mean I don't like him but I hope he's okay poor guy the last year has been so cruel to him

I don't think there's really anything to talk about...for context there is one other post but it's back on page 29 that explains that Adderbite saw Stonefrost at Goodwill but he was walking as if he was really hurt and actually ran into her and didn't seem to notice at all
