@JimsPhotos the best collective noun for lapwings in flight is an applause, from the appearance of many hands clapping as they flap. A very large flock may qualify as an ovation. An ovation of lapwings. #nature #birds #birdsofmastodon #lapwing #collectivenoun I may have made this up.

Soooooo...
I think it will be fun - and useful - to invent some collective nouns for end of life work. Who else is excited??!

Based on the seven roles of end of life work I have some starting ideas - let's hear yours in the comments. ☺️

Advance planners:
An Articulate
A Folder
A Pocket

End of life / Death doulas:
A Compassion
A Vigil
A Dignity

After-death body care and ritual specialists:
A Revel
A Focus

Funerals - Home Funerals in particular:
A Haven
A Help

Legacy project creators:
A Joy or a Leap
Memorial project creators: A Myth or a Meaning

Death literacy advocates: A Dialogue or a Den
Compassionate community networkers: a Circle or a Connection

Grief therapists:
A Wonder
A Guide

Here is today's #collectivenoun.

Whiteboard with many different colored markers piled on the bottom. A polar bear is drawn in black marker in profile. There is a speech bubble saying, "My fur isn't white. It's transparent so I can hide!" The top of the board says, "A group of bears is called a sloth"

Should we perhaps have a collective noun for fediverse users?

In case you agree, let me present you with:

A Migration of Mastodons
A Flock of Federators
A Table of Tooters
A Federation of Users
A Kindness of Friends

Here is today's markerboard doodle. I felt really cheated to find out that reindeer and caribou are essentially the same thing. #collectivenoun #doodle #animal

Markerboard with dry-erase markers piled at bottom. The left side is taken up by a line drawing of a caribou with towering antlers in black and yellow. The caribou has a speech bubble, "Caribou wants a coffee for Christmas." The right side has text, "A group of reindeer is called a heard."
