    (Hm… Seems like it wants some pronoun tryouts, but how do we find a good way to repeatedly refer to it in third person? Perhaps we could make a post at a random point in the coming week, in which we tag it and talk about it? But that would require knowing more about it, and I don’t think it’s that interested in talking about its interests and talents and so forth. So perhaps we could present this comment as an internal monologue about how to affirm its gender instead? Or perhaps…)

    “Tmw milk_thief wants to experiment with its pronouns (this is a certified it/its moment)”

    (Could we really not think of anything better to say…? Don’t we remember how it made or at least posted that funny meme a month ago, or how it made that insightful comment just yesterday? Surely it deserves better than that type of silly meme. Come on, let’s work our big beautiful brain cell and find a better example sentence to use for it…)

    “When I’m in an it/its competition and my opponent is milk_thief (spoiler: it’s winning)”

    (Gyaaaah!! Can’t we just say something normal, something normal, like…)

    “It is an odd hexbear, but I must say, it steals a good milk.”
