Huh. I just realized that with a minor change in lyrics to the Cake song "Short Skirt Long Jacket"--replace "I want a girl" with "I'll be a girl"--the song is basically about @irisjaycomics.

Just phoenix things 

"Hm? Oh, that's not dandruff. Just some ashes. Falls out of my feathers all the time. Plenty of dust and small flammable particles around."

Also especially thanks to my boyfriend @neonNeptunian for dancing for my entire set! :-)

@literorrery @adeptomega Thanks for everyone who came out and danced or just chilled with the music for a bit. 💜💜💜

I did a thing, last week, that I've been wanting to do for multiple years, and having failed to do it already a few years back.

That is: to turn my garage into a dance party (rave, let's just call it a rave), and DJ an entire set for people to dance to.

It took some science-ing of an industrial heater, and some cheap xmas lights. And cleaning the garage out enough (though thanks to @literorrery and @adeptomega for much of that work).

And now I can share the result:

Confession 

For the longest time, I wondered what the heck a Nohta Republic was.

Terrible Comics Crossover 

A crossover idea that will never happen: an evil self-replicating robot from the Marvel universe manages to somehow take over five big robot lions and then combine into one very huge evil robot.

Age of Voltron.

Playing a new board game called Professor Evil and the Citadel of Time, in which there's a professor who steals treasures through time.

My headcanon: The Professor is actually FtM trans, and his full name is Professor Cameron San DeEvil. Retired but actually not.

(Thanks to Xurnami and Grace for the name assistance. :-D)

Trance; life; clubbing 

This is what fuels my drive to do some small-scale DJing. Heck, maybe larger-scale eventually. Cons have shit music (to me) too, and being even just a furry con DJ would be nice. (If the cons weren't all run by the same local cliqueish furry DJ conglomorate).

I can at least play it myself, if nobody else will. I don't have a club or a fancy lighting set... but I am sure as hell more queer than anything downtown. :-}

Trance; life; clubbing 

Unfortunately that's my options. Weekend-long camping events, or clubs with a crowd that's very much not my type of people, because, again, the club owners have a very narrow (cis, straight, young, rich) view of their clientele, and cater near exclusively to that.

And the thing is, trance music is not a dying art--it's alive and well and still strong overseas.

Here? Nobody plays it but the wrong kind of club.

Don't give me trap, dubstep, house... I need trance.

Trance; life; clubbing 

I've been going to clubs to dance to DJs I recognize (largely in trance) since the late 90s.

All I've ever really seen is that club owners and promoters have been trying to push a very specific commodified experience, rather than the rave culture. And I stil lament that I only came into this music on the waning end of raves.

I've never been to a Massive, or any big weekend-long dance festivals that replaced them. Wondering if I should. Because clubs are... not doing it.

Trance; life; clubbing 

Though I wouldn't go as far as saying trance music /saved/ my life, it's definitely a lifeline for me.
I discovered it as soon as I started discovering good music, and alongside many other discoveries in college, when I finally had room to expand myself into that wasn't space taken up by all the things my parents wanted for me.

Trance music can be a communal tribal experience, a connection, a wonder.

Except in America apparently.

I just came up with a short, succinct way of helping people understand the word tenses of Transgender:

"A Transgender person is not a person who is transgendered in the same way a Latino person is not a person who is Latinoed."

Addendum to the gender thoughts:

I'm so non-binary I'm actually trinary instead. :-P

Gender; Plural 

(and yeah, I may have said all this before, just musing to myself mostly.)

Gender; Plural 

I'm three people. Each with a slightly different gender identity. This makes things intetresting.

The otter is pretty much demi-boy. The bird is demi-girl but pretty fluid. The kobold's gender is 'toy', or maybe 'null'.

I guess that makes me, as a system, gender-fluid. Or at the very least very very non-binary.

I still like the term 'Enby'! :- }
