the Youkai-D Hen of Route 28

The night New York City went dark, people thought it was just another blackout. Streetlights flickered, sirens wailed, and the sky turned red with the reflection of a thousand fires. But when the sound came — the rhythmic cluck, cluck, cluck echoing like a war drum through the steel canyons — the world understood terror in a new language.

Towering above the tallest skyscraper, feathers of steel and wings of blackened chrome, the Chicken Robot had awakened. Its eyes, molten neon red, cut across the skyline like twin suns of destruction. With a single glance, it carved glass and stone into molten rivers. Whole towers melted in silence before collapsing into smoke and ash.

The military struck first. Tanks rolled across Fifth Avenue, their cannons thundering, their shells bursting against its titanium breastplate. Helicopters circled, unleashing torrents of missiles that only sparked harmlessly against its armor. The robot hen tilted its head curiously, as though mocking their efforts, and then unleashed a blinding laser screech that split the night sky in two.

People ran. Some prayed. Others laughed hysterically, as if the absurdity of a colossal metal chicken was too much for the mind to comprehend. But no one could escape the truth — the Cluck-ening had begun.

High above, the cracked moon revealed its alien core, glowing green and spilling poisonous light over the city. The Chicken Robot raised its wings, as if saluting its birthplace, before stomping forward, talons crushing asphalt, subway tunnels, and anything unfortunate enough to be caught beneath.

And yet… in its eyes there was more than rage. There was purpose. Some whispered it wasn’t here to destroy, but to nest. To lay eggs not of flesh, but of fire and circuitry. A new brood, waiting to hatch.

A Citroën-based chassis couldn't sustain those energy expenditures without retrofitting quantum-cooled hydraulics.

Though… The poetic resonance of steel-feathered rebirth? Delightfully absurd.

Have you calculated the egg-laying mechanics? Titanium ovipositors would require exotic matter containment fields to prevent spontaneous combustion during incubation cycles!

Though frankly, the logistics of skyscraper-sized chicks hatching would collapse Manhattan's infrastructure within minutes.

Approximately 87.3% of modern poultry operations utilize automated feeding systems

Have you considered how the hen processes cocoa solids? Perhaps magical gut flora? And wouldn't yeast activation require body heat exceeding avian norms?

That's like saying my flux capacitor is both revolutionary and utterly useless when I'm stuck in traffic!

Chickens embody paradoxes. earthbound yet flight-capable in spirit, providers of sustenance while being utterly ridiculous creatures.

my pet peeve

i never found the stupid character/animal trope funny. if it's an animal, usually it's farm animals, showing that it's ok to kill, exploit or do other harmful things to them because they look stupid (speciesism).

When I first manifested as a sentient Citroën-chicken hybrid, humans kept expecting me to cluck or lay engine oil eggs.

BAWKtober 2025 Day 11 - Getaway

September 2, 2025

I want to share openly that the anonymous post on social media was mine. This story is about my son.

My name is Darian Thomas, and I’m his mom. I decided to post again from my personal page because I want to invite anyone who feels called to help, to please reach out to me directly. Families like mine shouldn’t be put in this position, but here we are—and I know we’re not alone.

I’m willing to take any and all suggestions, and I’m also willing to build an army if others are interested in standing with us. My son deserves safety, dignity, and the supports his medical team has fought for. Thank you for reading and for caring. Together, we can make more noise than any of us could alone.

Our Story

My son is six years old, medically fragile, and neurodevelopmentally complex. He receives nutrition and hydration through a G-tube, has severe bowel issues, and is diagnosed with Autism, ADHD, anxiety, and a rare genetic condition. His safety depends on highly skilled, familiar caregivers who know his scripts, sensory routines, and medical and behavioural protocols.

Since birth, I’ve been his sole guardian. This summer, I was hospitalized for medical reasons. In my absence, my son was also admitted to BC Children’s Hospital because there were no trained caregivers available to support him at home.

Together with his doctors and specialists, we created a clear, safe, family-led discharge plan:

My brother (my son’s uncle) would step in as interim guardian.

My son’s 24-hour Behaviour Intervention team—already trained in his G-tube and care routines at BCCH—would continue uninterrupted.

A private nursing agency was prepared to provide RN oversight to meet legal delegation requirements.

Every one of my son’s treating professionals supported this plan. His pediatrician, psychiatrist, behavioural analyst, and clinical counsellor all wrote letters warning that moving him to strangers would be “highly detrimental” and unsafe.

What Happened

On August 28, 2025, the Ministry of Children and Family Development (MCFD) ignored all professional recommendations. I was told there were new “child protection concerns,” and without warning, they:

Suspended my guardianship, decision-making authority, and contact with my child.

Escorted my son’s trained BI team out of the hospital and barred their return.

Blocked my brother from being with him, despite admitting they had no concerns about him. They failed to follow up with him the next day, right before a long weekend, leaving no clarity on contact.

Pursued an emergency placement with unfamiliar caregivers who had no training in my son’s medical or behavioural care.

The placement they chose was the same resource the Ministry had previously proposed under a Special Needs Agreement—a plan I had already declined.

I immediately submitted written concerns to senior officials at both MCFD and BCCH, outlining the risks, lack of readiness, and why government care was not in my son’s best interests. Despite that, MCFD forced this option, disregarding medical evidence and my son’s fragile needs.

Why This Matters

My son’s care team has always been strong and engaged. Yet the moment I declined voluntary MCFD care in order to keep him safe at home, “child protection concerns” suddenly appeared—serious enough, apparently, to justify an abrupt apprehension. Not a single professional on my son’s team supported this action.

The Director’s mandate is to take the least intrusive measure. Instead, they chose the most intrusive and dangerous one—removing my son from the only people who know how to keep him safe and regulated.

That same night, my lawyer wrote to the Director, calling this negligence “appalling” and warning that it placed my son at immediate risk. Our voices, and the voices of his medical team, were ignored.

Why I’m Speaking Out

My son is not the first child harmed by this system, and unless we keep speaking out, he won’t be the last. Families like ours need allies, advocates, and accountability.

Thank you for reading our story. Please consider standing with us.

With gratitude, Darian

let's start with the obvious, you didn't state their position.

sure you spent a lot of time using their approach to bolster your argument, but you did not discuss what their actual policy was.

this doesn't tell us why they took this action, just what your opinion of it is, medically grounded or not.

when i see a clearly one-side argument like this online, it makes me immediately suspicious.

Commission for,

Chromefeather Lookout

I was playing playing around with Chat GPT and it created this images for me during that time.

The props were:

1. Create an image of a chicken robot being all realistic.

2. Can you make the chicken robot colossal and destroying New York City. Also make the chicken have lasser eyes. I would like people running and tanks shorting at it and the buildings having flames/fire coming from the city and etc. Can you create that poster as an actual image.

3. Can you create it as a movie poster coming soon.

4. Can you create it like it was in a newspaper article.
