No, I'd never heard of it. Though I often do similar things with my characters. Including making a race of tiny dwarf humans with the minds of toddlers to protest the breeding of small dogs with mashed faces.

It's collected from many authors by Bruce Coville.
Sort of been thinking about it because it handles things like emotions and relationships via mythical creatures in a way that is...human. I sort of forgot that folk used to write like that.


That, realizing that I can actually reach certain goals despite my state's laws, and this message which really applies to the Southeastern United States and its culture of familial abuse/violence...realizing that several of my personal hangups and my extreme morbidity was sort of like a bad coping mechanism for depression...and having a meltdown over grief...sort of helped...

"They simply have no desire to worsen the suffering of others. I think they know by now that pain is a basic part of this world. They simply don't wish to participate in it...because if there is such a thing as going past the point of no return...then, if the world ever reaches that point, will it too be unable to go back? I refuse to believe in that kind of world."


...and on a lighter note, Euglena are cute little microscopic organisms. They are the green embodiment of this picture

the pigeon! my younger daughter used to love all those books! still has 'em too. XD

*big hug for Law* Vroom vroom!

It's a Southern thing is it? Huh. My dad came from the Southern US. That explains some stuff.

But yeah. I use my giant robots and inhuman looking aliens all the time to write like that. They feel safer to me.

Sort of. It's a mess.

*hug*

On another note, I think I've finally started the process that will eventually get me out of this bedbug hotel.

Yaaay, go Tam!!

LOL It's only taken me years.

I commented in a thread started by someone with the same name as you over on another forum.

*Cheers for Tam*

...Tam I Am vs. The Bedbugs...
Round 1...
Fight!


...on another note, I love this idea...

You commented on my thread on another forum |D
I am mdom everywhere. Except uhn... instagram I think. And tumblr.

This avatar dressup is directly related to my last one. Both illustrate phases in my life.

I have a sign up on my wall that says, "Abandon hope, ye bedbugs that enter here, for I am NEMESIS."

*click* BAHAHAHA! I'm going to kick your... FAHRENHEIT!

Two places, along with Facebook, that I only go to if dragged kicking and screaming.

Okay. If I were kicking and screaming there would be few people who could drag that much weight. *cackle*

I'd just bodily shove you along. lol

I'm probably go to sleep soon though... :/

*Hugs the Den and offers some blankets and warm milk*

Hmm...I use Instagram for image reference for art...tumblr is ~60% avoid (but I have found useful stuff there...sometimes...like a bread page I can't find anymore. It turned your mouse into a loaf of bread, and clicking sliced the bread loaf)

But social platforms, once they have a large number of folk, become negative unless you focus on your own little areas.

That was a beautiful avatar!
instagram I follow my friends only xD same for tumblr. I like to stal- I mean, know what they're up to, comment on a status to let them know I want them well, that kind of stuff. But I never post anything |D

I don't think I'd shove too easily, either. XD

Okay. I have to tell the truth. I've never been anywhere near 'Instagram'. I know very little about it. But 'Tumblr'... yeah. Right up there with 'Facebook' for me. And I think it chokes my computer. Poor computer!

Thanks.

Never underestimate someone who can bodily shove a grown man who has ~4 inches of height and ~10 pounds of weight on me. lol I plant my feet and push hard with whatever hip is closest, and I've been able to push my dad off-balance before (That happened when I was feeling blech. Just imagine what I could do now!).

IIRC, I've got about 3 inches of height on you, and a fair bit of mass as well. Plus, I'm just as stubborn as you, lady. lol
