Parker Morse<p>Just submitting payment to CatNet. <a href="https://ruby.social/tags/caturday" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>caturday</span></a> <a href="https://ruby.social/tags/snooze" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>snooze</span></a> <a href="https://ruby.social/tags/catNet" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>catNet</span></a></p>
taeli<p>I&#39;m making a list of the books I want to get to in 2023. Things like <a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/thebrokenearthtrilogy" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>thebrokenearthtrilogy</span></a> <a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/discworld" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>discworld</span></a> <a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/catnet" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>catnet</span></a> books <a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/theravencycle" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>theravencycle</span></a> and a bunch of nonfiction that I&#39;ve bought on audio but haven&#39;t gotten to. It&#39;ll be handy to have that list in 2023 when I&#39;m at a loss for what to read next. What&#39;s on your 2023 list? @bookstodon</p>
Mary E. Lowd<p>Then there are the real edge cases—what about Naomi Kritzer&#39;s <a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/CatNet" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>CatNet</span></a> novels? There are almost no animals in them. Yet they&#39;re entirely about anthropomorphizing a computer program. That&#39;s kinda <a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/furry" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>furry</span></a>. Sure, I wouldn&#39;t actually label them furry. But they do have some of that feel—that sense of trying to imagine the humanity of something non-human.</p><p>Arguably, every android character ever written is furry, because androids are anthropomorphic machines. By this logic, Data from <a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/StarTrek" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>StarTrek</span></a> is furry.</p>
