Funny thing about black and white. You mix it together and you get gray. And it doesn't matter how much white you try and put back in, you're never gonna get anything but gray.

Oh yes, definitely!

(hey, that works to msbelle and it being out of my price range.)

What ever happened to the one that was a fsbo and the owners were asking way too much and doing no work?

Actually, perusing realtor.com for the zip, there's a lot of stuff adjacent that isn't too insane. Of course, some of it is also in the sketchorrific part of it (and I say this from my iffy neighborhood.)

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

The giraffes can just transport themselves via the Giraffe Navy: [link]

the Giraffe navy is as strong as ever, contrary to recent claims in the popular press.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Since it's my imaginary sovereign nation, we can fit whatever I want on there.

And it's clearly an island surrounded by protective fiery volcanoes. Duh.

Can't it be an island that flies?

Ooh, like Atlantis!

On second thought, it's not an island. It's an orbital platform. Surrounded by protective fiery orbital volcanoes.

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020

Okay, now we're getting somewhere!

To protect a flying island surrounded by volcanoes (which, presumably, also fly) we will need to outfit the giraffes with jetpacks.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

AlGoreistan needs ocean beaches. Think of it as a really big moat.

I volunteer to lead the unarmed forces. And the disarming forces. Them too.

Oh, now it's orbital. Okay, so...we need to make giraffe shaped space-suits. And teach them how to work the MMUs.

Between the cuteness of Grace and Noah and the wonders of Shrift's haircut, I am now ded. Also, I am kind of in love with the cat armor artist.

Art Crawl!!!

(Everytime you guys talk about arming kittens I think of that Visa ad, "War kittens?" - "No, regular, fluffy kittens.")
