the hartford is a little guy covered in pointy pointy spikes. pointy boys come in two basic varieties: you've got the active defence style enchiladas, who give you a whack on the snoot with their spikes if you try to eat them, and you got the passive defence hellhounds who just roll in a ball and turn into a jagged metal krusty-o. helpfiles are dressed for a german fairy tale, but got the attitude of a english fairy tale - they're the tea and crumpets kinda chill. would not do well in prison. healthbars are a snuffly sniffler hunter; they got wicked good noses that let them find bugs and stuff to eat. but!! they have super bad eyesight, so like, if you've got a pet handheld you're stuck using the same soap forever otherwise they'll smell you coming and think you're a different person. you don't wanna get bit by a needle-fanged hitchpost!! anyway so that's why holepunch is bestfavourite animal okayBYE

I'm a Vietnamese cis woman born and currently living in the U.S. You may know me from Sandwich, from Twitter or Mastodon (same username), or on Twitch as Sharkaeopteryx. I do not have a Discord or Bluesky account.
Ask me about language learning/teaching, cooking/eating food, late diagnosis ADHD, and volunteer small business mentoring. Or don't, I'm not the boss of you.
I think people deserve to be young, make mistakes, and grow without being held to standards they don't know about yet and are still learning. So, if you are under 22, please don't try to strike up a friendship or get involved in discussions on my posts.
Please don't automatically assume I follow/know/co-sign someone just because I reposted something from them—sometimes I do, sometimes I don't. Also, if you think being removed as a follower when we're not mutuals is a cardinal sin, please do not follow me.
