go name the mammoth

[solarbird]

Anna and I were in Victoria last week, and she picked up a mammoth at the provincial museum. (And, by the way, I had no idea how fucking big those animals were. Holy hell in a handbasket those things were big. I know, I know, they’re called mammoths, but ‘jumbo shrimp’ are called ‘jumbo’ and that’s not true now is it?)

I posted lots of pictures to Twitter about ADVENTURES! And now, mammoth needs a name. And she was debating whether mammoth was male or female and I said not to force mammoth into a false gender binary, and now we just need a name.

The post is over on her blog. Go vote to name our genderqueer mammoth! Also, respect genderqueer mammoth’s identity, or they will trample you into viscera. Just see if they don’t.

Name me!

I tried to post a comment suggesting a name and it appears that teh interents ate it :( Or is it the case that comments are moderated?

[solarbird]

I dunno but I think so - I do the same. I know there's definitely spam filtering. Anna tends to stay on top of moderation requests, but she was on her way home for the last couple of hours, so that could be it.

[solarbird]

Yeah, she's approving some comments and names right now. Check back as she does. ^_^

Yes, comments on the blog are moderated for the first time for new users. :) Thank you for your vote!

I really liked "Pending Consumption." It reminds me of the Culture ship names, where the smart-aleck AIs that fly warships get to name themselves.

I really need to read those at some point, honestly.
