My new phone has a slot labeled "TF/SIM CARD"
Does anyone know where I can get a TF Card? I don't want to spend the rest of this week as a human.

I was gonna say "preferably a dragon card" but with all the hoarding of floppies and old computers I'm already like 90% of the way to being a dragon, I just need the wings and fire breath.
I've already got the scaly skin but that's just because I haven't put on my eczema lotion yet.
Maybe a ferret? Boeing used to employ them to help wire up planes, because they're good at running through thin pipes. They'd just attach a string to a ferret's collar and have them pull it through, then use it to pull wiring down the same conduit.
That seems like it'd be handy for all the electronics I do
Although on that note I was playing minecraft with @AmberTuring last night and I realized we have a mod that lets you turn into monsters, which seemed amusing but kinda useless.
Then I realized that the chickens are only one block tall...
So they're perfect for doing things like routing electrical/fluid/item cables under a floor without having to tear it up.

So it's actually very helpful to turn into a chicken.
That's a sentence you don't see often.

But yeah, if my phone could temporarily turn me into like a mouse or spider while I'm trying to figure out where the problem inside my apartment's wiring is... It'd be handy.
I'd even consider buying an iPhone if they could do that!

Get on it, Tim Cook.
Anyway, to explain the joke, originally microSD was a SanDisk format called T-Flash, but T-mobile made them rename it, so it became TransFlash.
Later they got the Secure Digital Association to standardize it into a SD subformat, and it was then renamed MicroSD.

For some reason, it's still called "TF" or "TF Card" on a lot of Chinese products. I don't know if the renaming just didn't catch on as much there, or if it's some trademark rights thing that makes it cheaper to use the old name.
And the other half of the joke is that TF also stands for "transformation". It's usually abbreviated "TF" in furry adjacent circles, where it usually involves getting magically/medically turned into your fursona.
Anyway, I gotta go buy stuff, but the tl;dr is

The Boeing thing is true, btw.
It's also why, when ferrets were banned in California, they were specifically banned AS PETS.
It's still legal to have ferrets if you're using them for mechanical assembly purposes.
