"You are not beholden to anyone’s vision of the future, including your own.

@Efi wait how was I not already following you. Hi :)
on being a snowflake (xpost mefi) (2/2)
Do I need to grow a thicker skin than the one I got by spending my twenties in submarines and oil refineries, or does it make sense that hearing "No, you're wrong, you're a man and you'll always be a man" from yet another authority figure, on a day when my brain is screaming the same thing especially loudly, might temporarily wreck my ability to focus on anything other than staying alive?

@Oneironott hey btw your name is really beautiful.
In a standard three-strand braid, any two given strands are unlinked except by the third strand; if you remove one strand, the second simply lies atop the third.
