Who’s your favourite musician?

It's been a long time since I've been able to listen to music for fun, so probably the Beatles.

what metadata is lacking in particular?

It feels it might be impolite to complain? Since people might see it and stuff.

Is a guy-shaped person's babycrazy expressing itself as a desire to become pregnant (and the converse) a reliable/common signal that that person is a trans woman (man) in Amenta?

I’m gonna declare @transgirlkyloren the expert on how transsexuality works in Amenta.

Why did the chicken cross the road?

“He is about to become bio-compatible, now, but he is still a chicken.  Since he was a chicken, he has had to lie motionless in a column which is perpendicular to a current of fluid.  Since a fluid is pushed in one direction and pulled in the opposite, the Chicken will be forced to move in the direction of the current without regard for which direction the fluid is currently pointing.  (Obviously) he will move in the direction of the current, so he will make a right turn and fly off, but he’ll always be headed in the direction of the current (forward).”

I don’t know about Bostrom, but if this is true, it makes a whole bunch of sense.  He doesn’t need any fluid to force him to do anything, and the current must affect the fluid at all in a physical system.  He has a fluid pushing him in one direction and a fluid pulling him in the opposite.  He can’t do a fluid dynamics calculation.

Have you done the RICO?

No.  In RICO I’m the sole defendant and so I am not a party to the action.

Which of the AUSJ sonas do you find most "reasonable"/hold positions you'd (mostly?) agree with if you were in their world?

Clonesona’s not far off, mutantsona’s not far off.  If Meow could calm down a little bit she’s not too far off either.  Daemonsona has the most reasonable voice but veers a little farther into overanalysis than I usually want to.

btw alicorn prefers the silmaril tag on tumblr to be "casteth afar" so she can see it when it happens

Ooh, gotcha, thanks! I’ll fix the post.

On the one hand, the celebrity thing and the terseness can make you seem intimidating. On the other, you say "*waves pompons* tell culture!" and when I send you e-hugs you say "*purr*". That adds up to "adorable and not-intimidating" I'm pretty sure.

You’d think, and yet!
