@mavica I bet "sphinx of black quartz, judge my vow" would sound awesome on it

@twitter@mastodon.technology new york post is trying really hard to push that for some reason

to the point that one of their headlines is "Looters swipe $2.4M worth of watches from Soho Rolex store: police sources" despite the fact that the store's spokesman said absolutely nothing was taken because staff had cleared the display cases well beforehand

has anyone ever used the phrase "you're playing with fire" and not been immediately mocked for it?

@wigglytuffitout that's verbatim from the birds outside the window every morning

they're just saying it in bird

@Kat@snouts.online @wigglytuffitout not exactly full VR, but not as difficult as you might think

you can even get ready-to-fly models https://www.aliexpress.com/item/4000259746660.html

@InspectorCaracal @wigglytuffitout @Kat@snouts.online I need to find a General I can pitch this to for the battlefield

"Require close air support, nya"
"close air support incoming, nya"

@mavica *uses many arms to juggle fire*

@Siphonay@octodon.social sounds reasonable to me

other option might be "video producer"

@twitter@mastodon.technology either that or they're using a surprisingly long timeframe for "out of state"

@Jo @TheGibson if you want to keep it gaming-related try "Sonic is the only blue life that matters"

Got to admit all these pride flags are getting a bit confusing to keep track of

I mean, what on earth is this one? 🇧🇪

further correction: turns out there was another one hidden out there at the time that we caught on the IR camera from a different angle

SIX HEDGEHOGS! WE HAVE NO LESS THAN SIX HEDGEHOGS! 🦔🦔🦔🦔🦔🦔

@mavica it certainly sounds like the sort of thing there's probably support for

@joshua that's the dream!

correction: 2 on one side, 3 on the other!

FIVE HEDGEHOGS! 🦔 🦔 🦔 🦔 🦔

running from one side of the house to the other because we've got two hedgehogs having a munch on both sides!

FOUR HEDGIES! 🦔 🦔 🦔 🦔

hedgehog!

my european, mayonnaise-coloured ass doesn't really have anything of value to add to the discussion, but I hope all the people out there can stay as safe as possible under the circumstances

also, the only blue life that matters is cookie monster

the collective noun for a group of hedgehogs is a "prickle"

a prickle of hedgehogs!
