[personal profile] projectmothra has a toy owl, named One Hundred Zen Bloom, who goes everywhere with him. One Hundred likes to do everything [personal profile] projectmothra does, of course. And since [personal profile] projectmothra cuddles his toy owl at night to sleep, One Hundred needed a toy owl to cuddle too. So out came the felt and the fiberfill and the BPAL TKO, and now the toy owl has a toy owl to cuddle in bed.

That was fun.

Awesome. (:

BTW, I recently friended [livejournal.com profile] projectmothra. Dru's journal, if you're interested, is [livejournal.com profile] druwho - he updates it himself, so it's kinda wacky and random. (;

Does he read his friends list? I'd love to see what he has to say, but this journal isn't always kidsafe and I rarely use filters.

I think he reads the three of us, but no one else, really. Also, we don't censor what he reads, so unless you're not okay with him reading, we're fine. Feel free to friend him. (;

Oh neat on the no censorship! I am not used to other people being that way. That is how I was raised, both by my father's request and that no one watched me closely. I've read some messed up stuff. I can't say it hurt me.

Wow, cool! Usually people get upset about it. d: We unschool Dru, and while I often keep tabs on what he's exposed to, I let him be exposed to everything. I'm just sure that he knows I'm there to answer questions or comfort him if he comes across something freaky or upsetting, etc. He's a pretty cool, well-rounded kid. (:

Not upset in the slightest. The worst person in my life and experience was a product of repression and was not able to be themselves. So they were deeply unhappy and quite selfishly evil actually. Blaming exposure is a way for people to not own their behavior and why they act that way. If exposure equaled coercion I'd be .. I don't know what. I've read so much. I may be a monster to the lifestyles that insist on censorship the most, but I am not a bad person. While I have discovered parts of myself which are true faster, or parts which I may never have thought to imagine on my own, anything I read that I also pick up without a LOT of unmistakable work is pretty much innate. Reading makes me more me, it doesn't change me without me knowing it and that is rare. I am me, and I recognize myself in baby and toddler pictures. But not necessarily in grade school pictures. So of course I think it is fantastic you are unschooling him!

I envy that he has you to turn to. I'll never know if I could have had that kind of comfort from my Dad, since he died when I was 9. All I know is that it is his extracting a promise from my Mother, with the force of a request from the dead, that gave me my intellectual freedom. I'd much rather have a tradition than a legacy, yannow?

Cool. Added him. (And it's not like my journal is full of smut or anything, anyway.)
