We've been mulling for a while about how to word this, but:

Identity is not a logic puzzle.
It's a story
or a poem.

There is no excluded middle
no law of noncontradiction
there are landmarks,
memories,
friendships,
resonant frequencies that sound in unison with selves
and victories won in the struggle for self-understanding.

They should be celebrated.

@Jo Yeah, that's pretty much a reminder that society is still hostile to trans folk. :(

Dithered animation! This is going to be a code example for the library.

No idea if Mastodon will re-encode these GIFs and mess it up, but we'll see.

re: Post-block subtoot 

@Jo I'd be like..."Don't make me tap the sign!"

The sign "Colour blindness is a form of racism that ignores the centuries of racism, slavery and genocide that had happened, and ignores the current and present systems of oppression and genocide by racist institutions, and the progeny of slave owners.

It is essentially a coward's version of Holocaust Denial."

gaslighting, abuse PSA, clarification 

This doesn't mean that you are never sensitive, or that people should never mention it. I say this as someone who really *is* overly sensitive (hello ADHD and RSD), but had that used against me for decades in abusive ways that did nothing to help me manage my sensitivity.

It can be helpful to say, "You seem sensitive about this, and I'd like to learn more about what's stressful to you so I can avoid accidentally hurting you."

It can also be helpful to say, depending on the nature and closeness of the relationship and if it's established that no lines are crossed, "You're obviously suffering and maybe you could learn healthier ways to cope with this."

It can EVEN be hard but honest to say, "I'm sorry, I can't accommodate you the way you need to be. Maybe we should have some space."

However, "You are too sensitive which automatically invalidates your pain and means I can keep on doing whatever the fuck I like no matter how you're hurting lol" is abuse. That is gaslighting. It helps no one except the speaker, certainly not the person who *by the the speaker's own admission* is in inordinate pain. If someone's reaction to your pain is to laugh at you and then keep hurting you, they don't care about you. This is abusive behavior.

USPOL 

Why is it that every single argument against anarchism is taken from the lens of capitalism? People don't put that much though on what an anarchist community would look like, and kept putting their own imperialist projections onto it.

"Oh no anarchism wouldn't work because would destroy it."

No duh, that's why anarchism is also about shifting culture towards one that is more geared towards liberation.

Is it pretty ironic that my first attempt at an instrumental trap song turned into a 9 minute long epic orchestral trap piece?

It's pretty interesting how being poly becomes the default when you're plural, because like say if your girlfriend came out as plural, and as it turns out all of the alters love you, it's like gaining a new partner you didn't know you had, but are thankful for.

This is a new feeling for me, to be partnered with one of my headmates when we used to be merged together just a few years ago. But then again, life is strange, and I am enjoying the weirdness.
