@clipclopboom@snouts.online so does homonormativity. Just think Meg, no breeding except by contract and heterosexuality is a perversion

@fluxom_alt Fun fact, speaking 'Girl' and having a passing voice is mostly about bounce, cadence and emphasis.
I listen to some of my trans friends talk on Discord and they do really well until they get flustered and the masculine leaden-ness comes back in.
Then again I have a condition where sometimes I'm just a Woman and the voice is 80% of it.

@GingeraleDragon@snouts.online No more Elbows.

re: CW for length, Mechanical stuff! 

@Rosemary Yes exactly that.

re: sarcasm, mh (-) 

@maxine @kelseyhusky Hah.

For us it was 'Yeah thanks mom, I'm 13, everyone will be really cool and supportive about me having a neogender.'

CW for length, Mechanical stuff! 

@Rosemary Circles within circles. You need one intake and one exhaust valve to have a 4 stroke engine in the first place, and they're up above the piston in the cylinder head.

And depending on valve placement, port size, how long the valve is Open and how Open it gets, you get different performance characteristics.

Small, single valves with narrow intake tubes and short cam profiles will make an engine develop maximum torque low in the rev range, and develop better peak torque. Great for Truck Engines.

Going to Double overhead cams, four valves per cylinder, short fat intake tubes, and long, aggressive cam profiles will make an engine rev a lot higher, faster, and it will develop much better peak horsepower.

It's a trade-off in most cases. This can be overcome with some tomfoolery like different length intake tubes for multiple intake valves, variable cam technology like V-tec, or the secondaries that open up like on the taurus SHO's engine.

In Honda's case, they wanted maximum revs, torque be damned. So they tried making pistons that had more longitudinal surface area to accept more circular valves in the cylinder head.

Because when you're trying to get a fluid to move through a tube, the cross-sectional Area goes up Fast compared to the Radius as you increase the tube's size. But you can only fit so many circles, in a line, inside a Bigger circle.

So cheat. Make it an oval like Honda did.

@Rosemary They're Not, Honda made some oval pistoned engines so they could fit three intake and three exhaust valves in there for motorcycle GP racing.

It, uh... Didn't work great. Mostly because it's kinda a toughie to get a boring bar to embiggen a hole that's any shape but Round.

@Felthry Hah. I've Known people where that was the honest truth for them.

ADHD in media: Super extroverted kid babbling on about nothing in particular and a lot of 'Lol I'm so random!'

ADHD in real life: Getting suddenly confronted by a housemate because you HAVE to hear about the latest graphics card and All it's specifications, Right Now, and oh yeah, what's for dinner?

@kelseyhusky The answer I usually get is something along the lines of 'I'm just this thing, I never questioned it'.

Which in and of itself kinda isolates anyone who Has from those who Won't, for whatever reason.

I'm really starting to get the feeling that human binary genders just straight up don't apply well to autistic folks.

@fluxom_alt actually yeah.

Messed up when you're a cisgendered enby Herm.

@gnarlyanimal@snouts.online some people have a rock and roll heart.

I've got a Jazz Kidney

@cozykaffe@snouts.online @pupy@chitter.xyz enby identity is a tough one because everyone seems so obsessed with your junk, and if it matches your presentation according to the "normal"

We've needed a third gender for a while
