Nooooo I have been hit with the kudos bot on AO3 (where your kudos go up but your hits don't???).
So use this as a reminder to donate to AO3! Getting them funding means they can get more people working behind the scenes to sort through the backlog of bugs and issues they've been working (which is why the site is marked as being in beta)

Now I’m curious, what breeds are on your list?
✨Golden Retrievers✨
Pomeranians
Samoyeds
Rottweilers
Irish red setters
German Shepherd (I like the black ones)
Rough Collies and Shelties
Great Pyrenees
Bernese Mountain Dogs
Cocker Spaniels
St. Bernards
Borzois
and probably more that I forgot to list!!
These are all dogs that I Especially want to cry when I see them, and that I could see myself loving / being able to meet the particular needs of their breed. I've expanded my Range a little in the two years since I brought Hugo home, since he's taught me a lot about dogs, and I could potentially take care of a baby with very different needs from the ones that he had. I'm still by no means a dog expert but. Yanno. You learn small things over time!
In the end, when I was searching for a dog a few years ago, I had a few qualifications I didn't want to budge on.
I needed a dog that's trainable, but not stubborn, a dog that's gentle and considerate with my cats and my niblings, a dog that's not too reactive, a dog with soft fur, and a dog that is affectionate.
So... Hugo is all of those things!!! He picks up skills quickly and listens (I gotta work on his Recall though), he takes extreme care around the cats and is so careful that he can be left alone with kittens and baby chicks, so being sat on / bothered / tugged on by small kids isn't even a challenge. He has never growled at anyone or anything in Irritation in his life. He's never bared his teeth. He doesn't bark at strangers or at odd noises, he doesn't snap as a response to being surprised. He's extremely pillowy soft, and his fur doesn't irritate my skin or pierce my clothes. He is extremely, extremely sweet and loving, frankly to the point that he would easily fall in love with a new owner if he was kidnapped lmao.
You can maybe see why I like goldens so much.
I got REALLY close to adopting a Pomeranian, which I'll continue to Think About, basically forever... but as someone with a predisposition for migraines, I don't want to set the dog up for failure if I'm not ready to hear bark bark bark bark bark bark bark all day. That's the ONLY downside. Maybe I invest in some noise cancelling headphones? They're beautiful dogs though, I love an animal that looks like a little rat. You ever see one of them after a bath? My god.

yes the 8 strength jokes are funny but on the other hand the ones in bg3 with 8 strength are a wizard who self isolated in a tower for a year, a vampire spawn rogue consistently underfed by his master, and a warlock who I assume was more durance trained than for pure strength and who has definitely been banking more on his eldritch powers for the last seven odd years so like. yeah.

Now this may not seem like a massive change in format, but boy howdy do I feel proud of myself for writing the functions to automate this ehehehehehe (unfortunately for me ao3 ship stat op used a different formatting for the pre-2020 tables, so I'll have to write another function to sort those ones out too ToT)

one time i wanted to try fallout rp off of tumblr, so i joined another group and i made my character asian (one of my first real attempts at trying to incorporate my heritage into an oc) but one of the other players insisted on being incredibly racist towards me. he insisted that he wasn't racist, but it wouldn't be realistic for his character to not be racist since he was rping as a diehard anti-communist. i didn't want to start shit, especially since i was new, so at first i thought about rewriting my oc to be a white dude instead, but then i just gave up and dipped lol. the end.
