They say you and me are ⌈Tautology⌋

Dear Princess Celestia,

Today I learned how to make a custom data format in Numbers for MacOS, allowing me to type in a raw ISBN-13 and have it hyphenate in the desired fashion automatically. Both Rainbow Dashes I spoke with tonight, as well as anothe rpony, agreed that this was an incredibly eggheaded thing to do, and that feels affirming.

I also learned that I am an alicorn, because I can feel my wings.

Phantom body sensations are rare for this system, so being able to feel my wings on my second front, and for so long, is incredibly novel and comforting.

Your pupil,

Twilight Sparkle-Tautology

doing research for future purposes (that is to say a cleaner about for us collectively); i know theta-delta is the therian symbol, does alterhumanity / otherkin in general have a commonly accepted shorthand symbol (thats able to be used in plaintext)? some research so far suggests "⎇" was proposed but it doesnt seem like it caught on

#its been years since we were in the therian community and im assuming its still real animals #and not fictional creature species like us (pokemon) #so wed feel weird using the therian symbol unless it IS just the accepted general otherkin one

i'm also curious about this cos like. we're not therians either. some of us are animals but "therian" never felt right for us, and then there're the trolls and au ra and stuff.

you are a good dog
