Three things!

1. Have you ever thought about changing your name? What would you change it to?


2. Also! Hours at the store are going to be updated and posted on the window once I sort everything out because...


3. In personal news (you can ignore this if you want, I know nobody cares, but I'M excited for it!), after a few years on a waiting list, I'm finally getting a service dog to help me with my silly Liminal "defensive thanatosis" thing (aka. those pesky fainting spells where I "die" for awhile)*, and I get to meet her and work with her starting this week! I'll be out of the shop while I get everything sorted. You can message me if you have any specific questions about your orders and I'll try my best to respond ASAP, but otherwise, it's Dog Time! I'm excited to maybe regain a little more independence, like being able to leave the station alone without worrying that I might get spooked and fall over and get roadkilled for real! Yay!
   
   Please give me all your insider dog tips, thank you!

*Basically she's a seizure dog for my unique situation even though it's not technically seizures. Dogs are great! We don't deserve dogs!

ok i did legit consider changing my name to some stupid goth kid art pseudonym when i was like 20 but no one else thought felony goncharov was an actually useable name

also? fuckin fuck yeah accessibility actually kinda fuckin rocks

[failson]

Felony Goncharov would have suited you, but also I do think you have a great name as-is!

THANK YOU! I'm just really excited! My world's been so small since I got my powers, but having a cool doggy helper buddy really feels like it's going to open things up a bit more. Fuck yeah!

[bwnedpronouncedboned]

mighta been a problem if i ever wanted to go to law school

oh i fuckin feel you there dude. it's easy to kinda forget the things you used to do before and then you're suddenly like holy shit i can do mundane shit again, gonna take my ass to the mall and just walk around and pretend i didn't have to register my body parts so i could be out in public.

[failson]

Because they're not into the movie?

Oh my god, yes! All I want is to be able to go to the mall and be boring and not have to beg anyone to escort me there. I'm not even ambitious, I just want to eat ice cream on a bench like I could before the rifts made my life too complicated.

1 spent a good long time thinking i'd drop the fairfax but i never decided what with. it's not so much a problem all the way over here though

3. service dogs are pretty incredible???? congrats on the independence n cute new buddy.

[failson]

1. I feel the same about Woolwine, even though it doesn't really mean anything to anyone here. I don't know what I'd change it to, though.

3. THEY ARE!! I feel truly blessed to get to spend my life with this very good girl. Thank you!

[coulee]

it was a lot of baggage i had to carry around for a couple of dead folks and that didn't seem fair but the longer i kept it the more it felt more like a hearty "fuck you" to the ones i wasn't keen to match. which helped. would you keep the W theme

what breed???

[rafflesian]

1.yes. eureka castillo. why, are you thinking about a name change?

3. YES!!! FINALLY!!!! can we throw a doggy shower?

[failson]

1. That's a great name! And yes, I kind of hate being the third of a name from a family that disowned me, but I also have no idea what to change it to. Also also, I'm sure they hate that someone they hate is going around making them look bad, but that's just me being spiteful.

3. YES!!! I'm so happy!!! I don't have to bother you as much to take me places! I would love that (and I haven't met her yet but I'm sure she would, too). 🥺

[rafflesian]

1. i think the funniest thing you can do is launch a successful liminal-centric brand. although i did change my full name so that my success could never be attributed to my family. either way, i support being spiteful.

3. what day works best for your schedule?

[hulled]

Let me know if you need any help communicating with your dog.

[failson]

Yes, please! I want to make her as happy as she's made me!

[hulled]

Dogs love to have a purpose. By giving her a job, you’re already making her happy. But I can find out all of her favorites for you.

[unperceive]

Can you do ferrets?

[hulled]

Absolutely. I can talk to almost any animal.

[beautyfull]

see but my name was special crafted by my mother in hours of like, counting syllables n letters who else would i be even

but omg dog. that's honestly like. So exciting?? get out of here. let that beautiful babie guide u.

[unperceive]

seriously? what's your middle name?

[beautyfull]

marion

[failson]

Oh, I get that. I have my mother's name, which is also my grandmother's name. And both of them hate me now because I'm a Liminal and I'm embarrassing them.

Yes, thank you!! I just want to take the shuttle to town and go do some boring tasks without worrying that the stress of it all might wind up causing my untimely death.

[beautyfull]

see like, if that was me, i'd keep the name n make them change it

i mean like. idt anyone would let u just die on a bus anyway but yes...good alternative.

[emceed]

It's your name just as much as it is anybody else's. Maybe keeping it's the bigger fuck you.

[failson]

I keep coming back to that! At least if I'm bringing shame to my name then I'm dragging them down with me!

[emceed]

"Shame to my name" oh extremely fuck that, babe.

[kobalt]

All dogs are the greatest, but service dogs are also the greatest.

[failson]

They are! I feel extremely lucky and grateful!
