The hellhound's job sounds like my ideal job, getting paid in cheese to dig holes.

My no-hands-cartwheel would be to float, in the air rather than the water (where I am already good at floating). Even just a tiny little levitate would make me happy, but ideally I'd like to float the way I do in my best dreams. When I was younger my mum was convinced we could learn how to fly if we believed it enough (too much Richard Bach) and we used to regularly run and jump and put our arms out as though they were wings.

This comment has me wondering if birds consider all humans to be disabled

So often when I am reading about birds intelligence ("this bird is as smart as a 3 year old human!") I think about what they must think of us. "Wow, that human is almost as graceful as a two day old chick".

from my gymnastics background, a no hands cartwheel was called 'a roundoff.' there was a brief period in my youth where i could do one! not anymore lol

a roundoff appears to still involve hands but also involve a lot of running and springing

ok wait youre right! a roundoff is where you sorta land on both feet. and a no hands is an aerial! i'm so sorry. you should dream of aerials! i could never get to no hands but i could do one hand like once or twice

this inspired me to look it up and apparently the move I’m thinking of is called an “aerial” which is possibly a cooler name than no-hands-cartwheel haha
