crows
August 1, 2025
for a while i went by crow, and that was a terrible time for me & everyone around me, but i liked the name and im thinking about softlaunching going by crow again (in addition to dallas, not replacing it, im too bonded to that name)
now this is about to turn into a weird rambling post just to be cleqr but something i've been thinking a lot about lately is that i've always kinda "seen myself" in crows. not in like a kin / therian way necessarily, i dont literally think im a bird, but i do identify strongly with them in a way that's kind of difficult to explain
something about feeling like a transient presence in people's lives, like a bird that could fly away at any time
feeling like you observe the world rather than actively influencing it
and crows are very mundane, common birds. other people might think i'm weird, but i do genuinely believe that i am a very mundane person. i don't believe i'm "unique" nor is it something i aspire to. and i really don't think anything i do is that weird or unheard of. people tell all sorts of stories about crows, that theyre tricksters and bringers of war and death, but at the end of the day theyre still common birds that eat out of the trash, and not many people notice or watch for them. and i'm the same way. people have constructed in their minds these fantastical or even frightening ideas of me, what they think i am, but i just want to fuck off and live my life.
sometimes i wish i could pass unseen through the world as the crow does. i want to observe humanity. i want to travel far and wide on my wings and have many different experiences. i want to learn many things. i want to have a collection of the things i love. i want to steal fries out of people's hands and tactically shit on people's cars. i will do this because it entertains me, and entertainment is the most important thing in life
maybe i could be a familiar, i do feel i have an "evil advisor" type character
i think my edible is starting to kick in so if im starting to become incomprehensible at this point sorry
i think my fursona is like a skeksis creature
Ok post over
