I chose to be called Wordweaver because I am a poet and writer. I love words! Unfortunately, not everyone liked my words so I have been perma banned, although I was doing well on points. Oh well - you can't please everybody! At least I can still post submissions even if I can't comment. I upvote often and very rarely down vote. Love to all Pandas!

my name is my favorite plant. it refers to philodendron melanochrysum. "melanochrysum" means "black (melano-) gold (chrysum)" from greek and refers to "tiny golden sparkles" sometimes observed when the leaves of the plant (which are dark) are in sunlight. it reminds me of the human. it can be dark, but its beautiful and in the right light it can shimmer more beautiful than gold itself :D

She doesn’t have telekinesis, but she has enhanced reflexes and uses the Force subtly.

My husband and I were chatting about the weather over the next few days, which were predicted to have intermittent thunderstorms. I looked at the forecast and said, "it's the same thing every day - scattered and isolated."

There are restaurants in the southern U.S. called Waffle House that serve hash browns, among other breakfast things (like waffles!). You can get them with mix-ins, so you order them as "scattered and..." such as capped, for mushrooms or smothered, for onions.

So as soon as I said "scattered and isolated" I thought of hash browns, and my husband said, "that sounds goth." Hence, "Wednesday Addams' hash brown order". It doesn't hurt that we both love potatoes, and they're kind of hilarious too.

Khavrinen comes from a Fantasy series by Diane Duane called "The Tale of the Five", the first book of which is "The Door Into Fire". Prince Herewiss S'Hearn, the lead character of "The Door Into Fire", is a type of sorcerer who needs a sword to "focus" his magic, and the one he finally succeeds with ( after blowing up a few hundred because he can't get his magic to mesh with them ) he names "Khavrinen", which he explains is a word from an old dialect meaning "Harrow-Heart". I first picked it for a user name nearly thirty years ago, and have kept using it almost exclusively ever since, both because my heart has always been pretty harrowed ( since I have absolutely zero luck in the romance department ), and because it's unusual enough that I have never run up against the need to pick another name since it's already in use.

I wanted somewhere where I could express myself better without people knowing who I am. And since I saw other people on here decide to at least have usernames that are nonhuman things, I decided to change mine and allow myself to be my true self on here. So, my username states how I feel in society and spiritually. I am otherkin, but it's really uncomfortable to talk about irl because it's so uncommon (at least in media). But on BP, I can be who I am on the inside, and it makes me really happy. 😊❤️

I have used "Stannous (or Stan) Flouride since 1978 when I joined a group in SF called Rock Against Racism. Because the Feds liked to get ahold of the names of any group they could under COINTELPRO no one put their real name on a membership list. At the time, my gf and I had a game coming up with punk rock names (she used the name of that skinny Irish girl- Anne O'Rexia). We had just seen the classic movie "Dr Strangelove" at a retro movie house and I'd always loved Sterling Hayden's riff as General Ripper on "fluoride and precious bodily fluids" and we had a tube of generic 'Stannous Fluoride' toothpaste at home. The second time I wrote it I realized I was misspelling fluoride but kept it anyway. [FYI- My real name is Kevin]
