that "getting sorted into houses" trope from magical school stuff, but instead of personality and a magic hat, it's a sentient see n' say who assigns everyone their obligatory farm animal tf interest

<_< you know, I find myself wondering what it would say because most -farm- animals aren't really my jam
fair! 'obligatory' is language i probably wouldn't use for it outside of a joke.
short version: Rail pointed out to me a few years ago that there seems to be a significant correlation where people who have TF as a strong interest also tend to have like, a specific farm animal they enjoy that content around? and commonly with some degree of shyness/embarrassment attached? e.g. cows, chickens, pigs, donkeys, sheep etc
and it's not necessarily their primary species of interest, but there's a weirdly specific draw to it? like in my case i enjoy TF pretty broadly, but ALSO cow just scratches some particular itch in a way that others don't
I'm sure there's more to it than that actually, but like. We know our friends.
