@emanate @Oneironott @KawaSeadrake "very soft boy" is my favorite kind of boy :D

@Felthry Oooh. PA is extra confusing given its existing use for Public Address, the exact opposite of a PM/CM/DM/IM™.

@Felthry Some services called them one, others called them the other, users from both converged onto multiple platforms and the terms have become largely interchangeable I guess.

We should totally coin our own phrase for them and make it even more confusing. We could call them CM's for confidential messages! Then we'll have CM, DM and PM which are all actually just IMs(™).

@Felthry A kobold/cobalt hybrid could be a baltobold

Either that or some thicc line art of Balto the husky

It pleases me on a deep level that 'bold is an accepted short form of Kobold. :D

@Oneironott @KawaSeadrake I never correct anyone, 'cause I've determined that my gender isn't really anyone else's business. It's part of my identity, and I share that with people I want to be closer to. ♥️

Related thoughts: I sometimes wonder if I lean to the feminine side because I'm afraid that by being more masculine I'll believe that I somehow failed in transitioning or something? I don't think that's the case, but it's something I find myself wondering about.

@KawaSeadrake @Oneironott I went full F ("y'never go full F!") and realized I felt almost as dysphoric on that end of the spectrum as I did in the first place???? So I floated more towards the feminine side of the middle and that feels pretty comfortable.

I confuse people in public. Most default to feminine pronouns, some assume masculine, and the rare gem recognizes me for what I am and uses they/them or asks for my preferred pronouns (and totally makes my day).

gender problematic speech? 

@Oneironott I can relate to that feelinng. I don't think I'd feel right as the enby I am today if I hadn't spent time on the female binary first

@Fuego Yeah, I can see how that'd be weird. I thought I'd hit that a few years ago, but then I was like "oh wait there's NON-binary gender?!" And now I'm stuck in an infinitely recursing series of rabbit holes

@Fuego It's okay to be binary! Being binary isn't a bad thing. :D

It's pretending the binary is all there is that's a bad thing, and I've not seen you do that at all. >..>

@neonNeptunian Oh my goodness please do!!

You, @kelseyhusky and I can jam together! :D

Kelsey plays electric bass, and I've got a tin whistle and an electric guitar that I'm learning

@Felthry Achievements are kind of terrible like that, huh. >..<
