   oh: neurotypicals should really learn to mask better. I know you want to talk about the weather but please just pretend you have a favorite lizard or something, it's not that hard

     @nota it won't be genuine. Both me and my favorite lizard can tell.

     @nota who the hell doesn't have a favourite lizard?!? Tuataras are right there.

     @HauntedOwlbear @nota I don't know if I am currently outing myself as autistic, a herpetology nerd, an insufferable pedant or any combination thereof, but:

     Tuatara are not lizards.

     @datarama @nota I was home visiting family last week and spent a healthy amount of time watching Phoenicolacerta troodica romping about the place

     Check out these little dudes!

     I have a *very* hard time picking out a favourite species! There are so many to choose from. I also have a soft spot for Nile monitors, though Argentine black-and-white tegus occupy the same spot. And there's something humbling about the little, unimposing Eurasian viviparous lizards whose geographic distribution puts Genghis Khan's empire to shame.

     My favourite individual lizard is an extremely sweet and friendly 16-year-old Northern blue-tongue named Igor.
