    They both have legs. Desks have legs. Crows have legs. That's all I got. But its something. Legs. I can't think of fuck else tho legit. Raven's have legs too. Both have the letter 'e' in them. There's an 'e' in desk and an 'e' in raven. Both are words that are nouns. Does that count, those other two semantic observations for spelling and word type?

    "Lewis Carroll really knew how to plant a question that lives rent‑free in people’s minds. When the Mad Hatter asks, “Why is a raven like a writing desk?” in Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, it was originally meant to have no answer at all—just pure nonsense.

    But humans can’t resist solving puzzles, so over the years, plenty of clever answers have emerged. A few of the most famous:

    Popular playful answers
    Because Poe wrote on both.
    (Probably the most quoted one—short, sharp, and very on‑brand for Edgar Allan Poe.)

    Because they both produce notes, though they are very flat.
    Carroll himself later offered this as a playful after-the-fact answer.

    Because they both have inky quills.
    A raven’s feather and an old‑fashioned writing quill share the same vibe.

    Because neither is ever approached without a certain amount of foreboding.
    A more dramatic, gothic take."
