Ddzmini @jfalkens I had a Sulcata tortoise but he passed away 😰 6y

jfalkens @Ddzmini I'm so sorry for your loss xXxX we had a painted turtle(Lily) and Russian Tortoise(Genbu) that passed away a few years ago. Wally, the Russian Tortoise we have now, we just got Aug 25th. 6y

Ddzmini @jfalkens thank you I don‘t know when I‘ll be able to get another turtle he was special I had him for almost 20 years 😰 and it was recently so I‘m just taking my time with looking at other turtles 6y

Tall Blondes: A Book About Giraffes | Lynn Sherr

1️⃣ 🦒 giraffes!
2️⃣ dodo
3️⃣ spiders and cockroaches, especially the big ones that can fly. Growing up in Florida with palmetto bugs was pure hell.
4️⃣ Sloth 😂
5️⃣ That‘s a tough question. Maybe a dog? Or a butterfly? I would like to be pretty. 😂

LauraBeth 🦒🦒 I used to always beg my parents to buy me a giraffe. “Pleeeeeeeeeze?!” 6y

DGRachel @LauraBeth They‘ve been my favorite as long as I can remember. I still have the giraffe I had as a baby that plays music while his neck rolls. 😍 I collect giraffe figurines, plushies, etc. 6y

LauraBeth OMG @DGRachel! I bought that stuffed giraffe that rolls it neck for my daughter. She carried that with her everywhere she went until she was 6 or 7 and she STILL sleeps with it 😂 6y

DGRachel @LauraBeth I slept with mine for a long time. In fact, I managed to bend the metal rod. It can‘t be fixed, as the toy repair guy said trying to bend it back would probably just cause it to break. 😭😭 6y

LauraBeth @DGRachel 😢😢 Her rod is bent too and tore a hole through the neck. I had already broken the music box when she was around three when I put it in the washing machine 🙀 You should snap a pic so I can see if it‘s the same giraffe 😂 6y

DGRachel @LauraBeth Already done and tagged you in the post. 😂🤣😂🤣 6y

Smilodon - Saber-toothed Tiger | John Davidson, Enrique Fiesta

1️⃣ Cats
2️⃣ Smilodon
3️⃣ No
4️⃣ Ok, let me be clear: unless one is First Nations, one does NOT have a spirit animal. This is serious. Do you personally follow a shamanistic religion? No, then you don't have one. I don't either. I will fight people on this. This is serious. For my Patronus, see #2
5️⃣ As a child I wanted to be a horse so I coups run away.

BookishTrish Well said on #4. This is a conversation that happens a lot here in BC. 6y

alisonrose Thank you. It‘s really annoying to me that people still act brand new about the spirit animal idea. Non-indigenous folks have been told for years to stop this cutesy appropriation, and yet..... 6y

tournevis @alisonrose I know! As an academic, I work hard to de-colonize my syllabii. This means, of course, I fail at it, but I fail at it less and less every year. I start with these kinds of things. In and out of the classroom. 6y

tournevis @alisonrose It's not as if we don't have the Patronus now. 6y

alisonrose @tournevis exactly!!! It‘s a perfect substitute 6y

tournevis @alisonrose *nods* 6y

Clare-Dragonfly 🙌🏻👍🏻 6y

tournevis @Clare-Dragonfly 👍 6y

VeganCleopatra Agree, I almost did the survey until I saw #4. Pretty easy to just reword such things but people seem strangely attached to the spirit animal phrasing. 6y

tournevis @VeganCleopatra Believe me, I know. 6y

alisiakae The spirit animal question is why I skipped this. But hopefully the few Littens that brought up the fact that this is cultural appropriation will help raise awareness about things like this. Same goes for smudging, which I still have to call myself out on occasion. (edited) 6y

tournevis @4thhouseontheleft Yes! Witching and pagan practices, i.e. European, that involve purifying with smoke and stuff is one thing. Smudging is entirely another. 6y

tournevis @4thhouseontheleft This said, burning wild sage smells soooo gooood! It's tempting! 6y

alisiakae Yes! I have made an effort to change my terminology, but still slip up sometimes. Smoke cleansing happens in a wide variety of cultures, smudging is a sacred ritual in a culture I do not belong to. I have also started using rosemary instead of sage, since it comes from my own backyard. (edited) 6y

tournevis @4thhouseontheleft Rosemary burns well too, indeed. 6y
