My problem with social media:
You can casually combine a Rules of Nature person with a Witch/Nectar person into one consistent individual. Not even hard. The full range of human experience is heckin' wide, and praise be to Gnon.
The heart is glorious because it is weak. What's the point of having a tough exterior if you don't have a gooey interior? "I was worried about my armour so I armoured it." Err, good joke?
Prey, too, can be glorious. Imagine you have nothing. No weapons, no brains. Despite this, when the lion comes for you, you live. The wolf slavers for your delicious organs, but her pack goes home hungry. Booyah! The predator is strong in body and the prey is strong in soul.
On Twitter you have to confine yourself to a monochromatic wavelength of light or you confuse your followers. Followers refuse to engage deeply enough to permit Tweeters to develop into interesting characters. On Twitter you have to be boring, a liar, or a nonentity. Selection against non-NPCs.

I am vicious, savage predator. If it doesn't seem that way you're letting my stripes blend into the grass.
I have figured out what I want most of all: respectable prey. You're supposed to run away, fuckers! Don't just stand there and let me eat you! Do I have to start wearing a neon sign for this to even resemble a challenge?
On the savannah, the predators pick off the lame and sick, because the healthy struggle too effectively. But, if the prey is so weak it can't even struggle, it's too corrupt to be edible.
