hi, I’m mo! my tumblr url comes from my nickname and the fact that I like crows! fairly straightforward :) I’m a historian, so that’s a pretty big interest of mine! I also love drawing/painting, playing music, reading, knitting, and games. Why you follow me: I saw one of your Popular Posts and then noticed you were in grad school for museum studies, which is what I want to do :0 Random fact: I have an extra tooth! Question for me: favorite kind of tea?

hi mo! COOL! If you have any Questions about doin an MA in museum studies, or just want to Talk Museology, hit me up! 

lemme guess- the post you saw was the one where I babytalk to a crow in public? 

Name: Carly; Age: 31; Meaning behind url: it’s an anglicization of a latin word (aretalogus) that I thought sounded cool; Hobbies/Interests: Sadly/happily my hobbies are my job, which is working with rare books; Why you follow me: I posted some pictures when was in Seattle for work. @amarguerite asked me if I was there to see you. It was assumed we were already friends, and so I followed you; Random fact about yourself: I desperately need a haircut; Question for me: sweet or salty snackfood?

hi carly! wiki says that means prattler or babbler, which is a good choice for a blog name, I must admit. your hobby being your job isn’t sad, you’re just very fortunate! (I hope to be in the same boat soon!)

omg really? I feel like I knew you were in the Greater Pip Orbit (or possibly Greater Les Mis Brick Fandom Olds Orbit? margz is the main point of intersection between the two and I get a bit muddled who is coming from where, sometimes) but I did not know that was… how that happened. 

sweet AND salty! I like salted caramel and similar. 

hi! i’m Tarzi! iiiii followed you a few years ago because I had you as a giftee on the Good Omens Exchange, and I was like who is this amazing person? and then you turned out to be into the same things i was (Les Mis mostly). now we’re in the same professional field too which is kind of weird/cool (diff countries/coasts tho). i read Temeraire bc you were so into it, so there’s that. PS my url is a pun on the feline calici virus, except… with a cat colour in it… seemed legit at the time.

Hi!! I had no idea you got here via the GO exchange- that was ages ago, wow. And yeah it’s amazing how Museum People cluster, even unknowingly. 

I had to google that virus- I have to admit, I’ve kinda low-key wondered about your url’s story for awhile
