what I mean by "gender abolition": it is the People's Year of 203. your name is Xalandra. you used to use a different name that nobody calls you. you use xe/xer pronouns. you're taking a low dose of exogenous testosterone after getting an orchiectomy, all of which was free and promptly available under informed consent. you prefer to wear leather harnesses and miniskirts over big boots, and you braid your beard. your 'type' in lovers is tall with big hips, lots of body hair, body mods, and makeup.
you have a friend, Jimmy-Sue, who is "genderfluid," a word that they explain rose in prominence in "gender nonbinary" spaces around the turn of the 21st Century of the Old Regimes. They're really into history and are part of a subculture of lifestyle historical re-enactment hobbyists. Jimmy-Sue knows more about "gender" than you do— they tell yoy prior to the People's Era, access to things like clothes, cosmetics, exogenous hormones, name changes and certain body mods were gated on 'gender'.
I'm starting to get back into audio engineering. If anyone's got any tracks that need mixing send 'em over. I mostly have experience in metal/punk/pop/folk-y type stuff but will give anything a go.

A site to keep in mind:
$ pet supplies, therapy and meds
Hey, I could really use some help still. I need to get my hedgehog some conditioner to help with her itching, as well as some soap and grooming supplies. She needs a bigger enclosure at some point, but that's for the future when I get paid next. But these other things she needs ASAP.
I also still need help paying for meds when those get prescribed to me on the 11th. Sorry ;-;
Khr/Chr is y'all see this ur only allowed to boost lmao
Twitter | Twitch Meta | Bi/Pan Lesbian Discourse
@FreyaManibrandr Hell I've been around the track enough to know TERFs hate any queer label that doesn't conform to a very strict social binary so the fact people have tried to claim bi and pan lesbians are a "terf thing" is like the biggest red flag of a psyop. They may as well claim being genderflux or something is a terf thing it makes as much sense given their overall ideology.
Twitter | Twitch Meta | Bi/Pan Lesbian Discourse
There are some unscrupulous folks on Twitter going around capitalizing on Twitch's "womxn" screwup to throw pan and bi lesbians under the bus.
I don't really need to explain why excluding pan/bi lesbians is bad, but a brief explanation is that the exclusionary rhetoric uses the same ones TERFs use to exclude trans women.
What makes this sinister is that they are going around mislabeling pan and bi lesbians as TERF-adjacent. Likely to cause community infighting.
Don't fall for it.
white supremacy & misogynoir in U.S. suffrage movement
"In 1919, the executive committee of the Georgia Democratic Party adopted a resolution allowing women to vote in the Democratic white primary. Written by Emily MacDougald, the resolution passed 24-1. It allowed for a handful of white Atlanta women to vote in their first local election. Women of color were driven away under threat of physical violence. When black suffragists in the Jim Crow South sought help from their white counterparts, they were told that the disenfranchisement of African American women was an issue of race, not of gender, and therefore beyond the movement’s purview." https://www.atlantahistorycenter.com/blog/suffrage-in-the-south-100-years-later
If your feminism is not intersectional it will be bullshit. #history #WomensHistoryMonth
Fedi polls PSA (movie spoilers inside)
Did you know that some mastodon clients DO NOT hide the polls behind a content warning?
So if you write NSFW or uncomfortable/disturbing content in the poll, do this:
1) Post the text for each option in the actual post and use letters like A, B, C, etc.
2) Just name the options so nothing actually gets shown.
Example:
Did you know this?
A) No, I didn't. Vader is Luke's father!
B) Yes, I did, and Di Caprio dies in Titanic
