I suppose I should do a(nother) #Introduction...

I am a barn owl who mostly posts owly shenanigans, usually via hashtag games.

Sometimes I post about games, books, whatever geeky thing caught my eye...

Overall I'm a fairly quiet lurker.🦉✨

A large brood of barn owls in a tree nest. 6 are visible, with a possible 7th just visible in the back. Some are clearly juveniles, others fledglings. 3 look sleepy, 3 are looking at the camera, one with head tilted.

A @BeetleMoses comic that's been reworked to be a barn owl meme.

Panel 1: 3 barn owls sitting on sofas in a room, with text stating "25 million years ago."

Panel 2: Another barn owl bursts in, saying, "Someone invented barns!"

Panel 3: Barn owl with a skeptical look on its face, saying, "You're joking"

All Pokémon forgive the humans for building an entire world economy off forcing them to fight each other.

Sure, it might be Stockholm syndrome...

The Simpsons screen shots arranged and edited in 3 panels.

1. Lisa Simpson as a reporter, saying, "I'm here outside the home of a sick, sadistic animal hoarder who organises brutal animal fights."
2. Lisa looking at Ash from Pokemon pointing at her from the open door.
3. Lisa running as Ash sics Pikachu and other Pokemon at her.

I don't think the owls know or remember, so forgiveness might not be on the cards...

From the anime Mashle. Two owls poking the protagonist's head, while another character says, "It's disturbing how much those owls hate you."
