She, but yeah. She's basically a ragdoll with a raccoon tail, legitimately adorable. Still has all her toes, too.

Sounds like those toes are ripe for the picking, you gonna harvest them now or save them for later?

Quote from: Some meme, dunno the origin
70% of the earth is water and virtually none of it is carbonated.

So the Earth is, in fact, flat...

There's actually a considerable amount of carbon in the ocean: a quick google says approx. 38,000 gigatons.

Ergo, the earth is neither round nor flat, but.... fizzy.

To be pedandtic, there is quite a bit of carbonic acid in the oceans, and there is a concern that part of the carbon balance that is an unwanted climate feedback is that hotter water can't hold as much, so it releases it as CO2.  There's just not enough in there to make it "fizzy."

Something will pop but it won't be the rocks.

They sure will if they were metallic sodium crystals

That being said, actual pop rocks count as mineral formations.

I was chatting settings with someone and we mentioned some group of deities, which I called gods, but the other person "corrected" me with demigods.  I remember disagreeing, no, taking offense.  Maybe because they were technically correct.
Who the heck was I talking to... it was recent...

Was I when I talked Tarot with my mom?  No, I might say "demigods" but she wouldn't.
Might have been with my brother, but no, he's aggressively antitheist even in fantasy (whereas I swing devout)

I'm pretty sure it was with my SO.  But were we talking Worm or... Halo??  We did recently discuss the Bungie extended universe, and that's probably it.  I was enthusing about Leela and Durandal, characters they already knew about because they're rad.  SO rad.

But I feel mostly-certain that I didn't get to Durandal's return to Earth as a beneficent monodeity.  I didn't even get to Leela's multiplanetary godhood.  Maybe... maybe that's why they said something heretical?  If that's even what happened.

I'm overanalyzing before bed, for fun, and this question just felt like a bit of corn kernel in my teeth.  And now it's gone.

For fun, I recommend telling Christians that Jesus is a demigod.
