do roosevelt’s snakes have venom? or do they just have no venom? Do different snakes have different types or am I just overthinking and their just a constrictor type snake?
They are constrictor types, modeled after large pythons (snake people tend to notice the little mustaches of pits on their lips), so not venomous - although I have considered it'd be funny if one and only one of them was venomous anyway.
But no for real she's a bunch of colorful cartoon burmese pythons basically

Vaguely inspired by the last Hug ask: How does Roosevelt show affection?
A snake trait she retains is not really grokking physical affection - she doesn't hate being touched at all, more just that she feels neutral about it - safety and trust, but not love per se. Because of that it basically never occurs to her to show others affection with something like a hug (which might be just as well since all ways she could do that would be uncomfortable one way or another)
She shows affection by remembering things about people and being thoughtful

Are Roosevelts brains connected via like, magic bluetooth And is it a tight fit for all of her snakes in her porcelain?
Basically like magic bluetooth I suppose, although that to me implies the possibility of losing connection/going out of range and that's not possible for her, just worse and worse lag
And yeah, there's pretty much only room for them in there when the lid is closed. Them and some pocket change and lint and other bottom of your purse trash

I look Roosevelt Cookiejar so much. The porcelain body doesn't have a brain, right? So at least one snake has to be awake to move it? Does there have to be a snake in the porcelain body to move it, or can she move it while it's empty?
At least one snake needs to be in or touching the vessel body to make it move
She doesn't do asymmetric sleeping very much - she finds it hard to maintain. If one of them is awake it tends to wake the rest up.

What does Roosevelt eat? I know you mentioned Wax drinks coffee
She eats meat (in the form of whole animals, as pythons that size would eat), magic, and like a lot of magiphages has a bit of a sweet tooth despite the dissonance with the rest of her diet. She likes sweet drinks (like sweetened herbal teas) and hard candies

Do most Magiphages see in a magic echolocation kind of fashion like dryads or is that just a Roosevelt thing?
It varies by individual exactly what they see and how they see it, but you can assume any time you see a character without pupils (when I paint them with enough detail to tell that anyway) that they definitely aren't experiencing light in a normal way, or possibly at all
A lot of magiphages can sense light as something that excites the magic on surfaces (which can get fuzzy because other things can get magic buzzing like proximity to other magic sources - useful for keeping track of each other since they can broadly be threats to each other)
Many magiphages have a unique inborn sense for language that causes them to be able to read whether or not they can perceive light and dark, in a similar manner to how they can understand speech without learning the language and can speak from the second they pop into existence. This can lead to an uncanny ability to read and write without training or even visual ability.
Roosevelt has the fuzzy magic-buzz based light perception and natural language affinity
These sorts of senses require more magic in the brain than dryads normally have and would be a bit of a waste of energy in their natural habitat which is why they lack these tools. As they made their environment lower and lower in ambient magic their bodies pared down to survival necessities.

Sometimes discord conversations lead to things coming into existence. Have a sort of hydra. The snake bodies are completely separate but this is one entity.

Roosevelt grammar - I didn't want to keep borrowing Hearth's similar diagram to explain things (although it's the same basic idea - she would talk about the snakes like they are body parts - because they are)
