this reminds me of a... speedrunner!

oh hey sorry I’ve been distant lately…. I’ve been really busy having a brain that is bad

That “cringe” nonbinary xenogender genderfuck therian who uses neopronouns and may or may not go on HRT while being loudly, proudly themselves will always be more revolutionary and subversive than a binary trans person who aggressively reproduces the cis status quo and shames anyone who doesn’t do the same.

By the way, I threw “therian” in here as a bit of a litmus test for those responding to it as something widely regarded as “cringe” but ultimately completely harmless and benign that’s often maligned by people with conservative beliefs. And well. It did its job quite amazingly given how many of the negative responses I’ve seen have focused on that rather than the overall message of shaming people for their identities is bad and counterproductive. It’s almost like these people view all of those stated identities this way but used the silly furry one as a “weak point” they’d get minimal pushback on to dismiss the very clear point of the post. Literally hilarious honestly

it stings to rewatch stratt's last scene cause we have no idea what she went through after the hail mary launch. before the beetles' return, was she feeling desperate? tired? how was her life in prison, how badly did it affect her? and it's clear she has watched grace's logs more than once cause she shakes her head along "not rocky from the movie, no no no". watching those logs is the happiest she has felt in years, maybe ever since the launch. she spent decades holding onto hope that it was all worth it, and now she finally has confirmation that it was. and she can finally breathe.

I fear I am biting off more than I can chew but if Ryland Grace can save earth I can figure out how to make a quilt

THANK YOU

the poses is what gets me every time

I heavily recommend getting very good at spotting Meta glasses. Like I'm talking so good all you need is a glance. Otherwise, I would go about public life bearing in mind that more and more people are wearing expensive camera glasses that can record you without you realizing.

I am against Meta and everything they stand for but I’m curious if peoples’ opinions would change about someone wearing them as a disability aid?

Basically, if you say "this historical thing is a human universal", ask yourself, did it also happen in the Americas? Because the Americas developed thousands of years of civilization completely independent from Eurasia. Many of those broad claims about earliest "human" history and civilization are based on the Middle East and the Mediterranean. Not even China or India are considered most of the time, let alone Africa or the Americas or Oceania, which had multiple different independent origins of agriculture and social organization.
