      I changed my username everywhere else and I like to use the same username everywhere.

    ...for who, people in space?

    Welcome! Cool to see someone who actually likes Elantris and Warbreaker the most, that’s a rare opinion around here.

    I just heard the dog make The Most Tired Groan on my parents’ bed, and it was super long and adorable and somehow also the most relatable thing I’ve ever heard :lol:

      Thank you so much, that’s really helpful! Luckily for me I don’t have allergies, so the feather dust shouldn’t be a problem. Back when I was researching different pet bird options, it was really sad to see all the websites trying to sell animals from mills to people by blatantly lying to them about how “easy” it was to take care of them. I’m glad you’re making sure that people are fully informed.

      Of course! I found a website (The Finch Farm) and it seemed legit. They apparently but from breeders then ship the birds. The birds are reasonably priced, but you have to pay about $80 for a climate controlled shipping box.

      It's really sad to me how uninformed people are. I know a family who has a cockatoo (and they are the hardest birds to take care of) and she just doesn't get the attention she deserves. The guy who owns her is super nice, but he sometimes forgets to feed her. She lets him know, of course, but if you forget to feed your bird you shouldn't have a bird. It breaks my heart. My cousins also have a parakeet. That little guy... She's the cutest, happiest little budgie but they don't take care of her. They didn't even bother figuring out what gender she is, and it's REALLY easy to tell with older parakeets. She has all dowel perches, she spills her food all over the floor (like a normal bird) and they don't even bother really cleaning her cage, her cage is sitting on the floor, she has two toys (a bell and a plastic thing), and she's in the minimum cage size for a budgie that is let out of the cage frequently but she's just ignored. (I feel very strongly about this one, as I've been around her more than the cockatoo). I'd love to take the little guy home, but... Honestly, I should just offer to buy the bird. I'm getting a large flight cage soon, and have been looking for budgies to adopt.

      Sorry for the thinking out loud. I needed to rant about that. :)

      You're all awesome and I hope you all get pets you can love without choking on allergies :P

    This letter was a very good read, and good education on ableist tropes that I didn’t realize I was reading. Brandon is the type to seek out opinions from groups he is writing to be as accurate as possible, from what I’ve seen, so I think there’s a good likelihood that this will make him reconsider accidentally following these tropes. It definitely made me think. Have a good day

    @SightlessLightWeaver Great post! (I do want to say that the mods prefer we don’t double post, sorry.) Ooooo, what about a guide axehound...
  10. AonEne
    I don’t think WOK technically has one either, the Kickstarter hasn’t happened yet, I don’t think?

    “Are they humanoid?” Ene asked, interested.

    Lightsong is a good thing to be!

    What did your Diagram predict?

    Welcome to the Shard, happy to have you

    Welcome to the Shard! There are some pinned threads in the 17th Shard Discussion subforum that you might be interested in reading.
  17. AonEne
    Nah
  18. AonEne
    Well hey, whether or not you do, welcome!
  19. AonEne
    Welcome! There’s White Sand prose as well, if you sign up for Brandon’s newsletter.

    Not telling her is nothing to feel bad about! After all, it’s not essential information for reading.
  21. AonEne
    Have you considered agender, bigender, gender fluid, etc.? Or neopronouns like s/he or xe?
  22. AonEne
    I don’t think that’s selfish. Who knows, maybe she’ll even discover some connections on her own.
  23. AonEne
    I’m fairly certain Brandon’s confirmed Adonalsium is no longer alive, whatever it was.

    Welcome to the Shard! What are you most excited for in Arcanum Unbounded?
  25. AonEne
    Ene sits. “Well, thank you. Is everyone okay?”
