    Can we all agree to use “Sashayed in” rather than “hatched”?

      He’s still more tortoise than he is gay.

        That’s probably true. But like, by weight? Surface area? Gay actions per hour vs tortoise actions per hour?

        Hard to nail down.

          Don’t nail tortoises down. They reeeeally hate that.

          By the degree his life would change were that aspect of him to change.

            Ah yep. His life would be significantly more different if he stopped being a tortoise.

              Honestly, it’s debatable whether a blind tortoise with no sense of smell is expressing homosexuality just because they seek sexual gratification with an object that happens to be male. He might also fuck rocks.

        I’m thinking something in a casual saunter with a touch of hip sway.

        Or whatever the tortoise equivalent of that is 🤷
