US Elevation.

They said “before dinosaurs,” but we have a cave here that began forming between 450 million to 550 million years ago.

There are no bones in that cave. No fossils. No nothing.

That’s because this cave began forming before bones existed on land, and had only just started to exist in the ocean. Shellfish hadn’t evolved yet. Limestone, which forms many caves, was just starting to become a more prevalent rock.

Tim: Sure, but I don’t see how changing your name is gonna help.

Dick: Can I still be Dick?

I asked them how their gender felt or how they would physically describe it if they could see it and I got a lot of great answers.

Soft punk

Big lovable but delicate

Sitting in a hammock late summer listening to Jimmy Buffet

My gender is please don’t perceive me at all actually

I think my gender is… leaning on the comfort of the hot and cold parts of a refrigerator full of noise in a dark room; esoteric as hell, but that feels right

I would describe  mine as all of the pink emojis; or maybe just [redacted]

The void of space as a character, but one that’s clearly meant for sapphics

Hmm… A darkness that is both disorienting and warm; a welcoming void

My gender is a comfortable and mutual sadness

Y'all know that feeling u get when u go to a grocery store late at night, or that feeling when you’re at the beach at night when nobody is around; the late hours of the night with nobody around, left with your thoughts and being able to truly experience what time is, feeling chills run down your spine but in a good way

Fae woodsy and a little anger; lot of sneak energy; ideally dangerous, but in a rogue sort of way!

The feeling of struggling to open a plastic bottle cap with your jaw and teeth

Soft and warm, like a fluffy sweater or clover under the summer sun

Driving your car on an empty highway: time is real but not in the way we usually perceive; the universe is so vast and yet somehow you’re not alone. That’s my gender. IDK, that or like. 7/11 Slurpee.

Huh that’s a really interesting thought; I think mine would be……hm. The poses Mettaton EX makes in the fight; rainbow light, roasting marshmallows; sweet dreams by børns

Black screaming void

Non-Newtonian fluid but with chunks of colorful confetti lodged in it; or a lava lamp; or a chess board while it’s in play for hours. Or a box of chocolates -w- (Insert overused Forrest Gump reference)

Formless chaos and kinda stupid TBH; like an eldritch horror that does nothing but make loud noises and steal socks

My gender is comfy clothes and anonymity and people thinking WTF that’s so cool; also there’s a little bit of dragon there

My gender is wearing a red shirt to Target; I don’t actually work here, but if you ask me where something is I’ll help you find it

Mine would be a void, but like a malleable one: You can twist it and turn it, and make it bigger or smaller, like playing with playdough but if the playdough was dark matter
