Twins is basically the same as masturbating, that's why.
....Right?

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Maybe because twins is a particular fantasy for some? But really, there's no working with that kind of loosey-goosey logic.

I keep meaning to post about something else but keep returning to the incest. Yesterday Franny came home wanting to adopt a chinchilla for a pet. Oy! That's not an easy pet to keep right? le sigh.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
His response to me was "your examples were mostly twins, so they don't count."
Eww. I got nothing. He's nuts.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Burrell, chinchillas are... moderate-maintenance, I think? I was just reading an article about them a couple of weeks ago. They're happy in cages as long as you give them something to climb, they can tolerate and thrive in cooler temperatures than some other small pets, which makes them ideal for drafty foggy SF apartments, and they also live about 20 years, which is either high-maintenance (long time commitment) or low-maintenance (if you're a parent, it gives you a decent chance of dodging the Why Pets Suffer and Die discussion with your child until after the child is old enough to withstand the shock).

Because books.
I desperately (stupidly) want groundhogs. We have two in the hill outside our building, now named Lefty and Righty thanks to Sara, and they're the cutest. things. ever. Watching them run is HYSTERICAL, mostly because they are completely ungraceful but not slow.
They pop up out of their burrow from time to time and graze or stroll or, you know, occasionally gallop, and they sit up on their haunches sometimes to sniff the breeze. We rarely see them together, so I'm guessing they take turns guarding the homefront.
Every time I see them I get "I'm all right ..." playing in my head, too.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Yeah, I'm backing out. He doesn't like reading or thinking or reality, so we don't have much in common.
Now I'm visualising him as 13 and wrecked. "MOOOOOOOOOOOM, someone on the internet told me that incest!" Poor dear. It's all so shocking out here.

I had a conversation with a guy once where I had to explain why I wouldn't have sex with a clone of myself, which is basically the twins scenario.
(The reasons: I'm not generally into women, and am not the most attractive (to me) woman I've ever seen, anyway.)

Your reading confirms mine, JZ, although I'm calling cages high maintenance since it involves cleaning said cage, and while Franny has proven herself capable of cleaning the litter box, she has yet to demonstrate the ability to remember to clean it regularly. Hrm. I also hear that they are nocturnal and tend to be loud and active at night. But they are cute, and they are super soft and cuddly, and they get very attached to their humans.
