extinctionstories

I can’t remember a time when I didn’t love animals more than anything. But I remember the moments when I learned that they could cease to be.

I can’t remember whether I was in third grade or fourth, or whether the flimsy magazine the teacher had laid in front of me was an issue of Weekly Reader or of Ranger Rick. But I remember the photo of a Golden Lion Tamarin, burning like spun copper even on the cheap, pulpy paper, with a caption underneath saying that within ten years they would all be gone. And I remember the relief that I felt when those ten years passed but not the tamarin.

I can’t remember what channel I was watching (maybe Discovery, or The Learning Channel—not Animal Planet: we didn’t have that yet) when I saw a documentary about an endangered river dolphin in China. But I remember being completely entranced by the beautiful Baiji, its sweet face gazing up from the water like a grandmother mermaid. And I remember my heart breaking a few years later, when I heard that the Goddess of Yangtze had just been declared extinct.

I will always remember the animals who have touched my heart. One of the tragic things about extinction is, someday no one will.

The earliest mention of a gatekeeper comes from the Bible, in which King Solomon's guard would not open the gateway to his throne until those wishing to see him could name three of his songs.

young me especially would have hated hearing this but networking is literally the most important thing you can do to improve your situation like forget economic barriers to education etc just keep making friends with different people and eventually someone will offer you a hand up just because they dig your vibe and that is exactly all that's happening when undeserving people surpass you anyway

When I look at how I survived my 20s, it was always helpful friends putting work my way. And often the helpful friends were people I had only known for weeks.

transphobes: going on T will make you infertile!!!!!! you'll never ever be able to get pregnant ever if you go on T!!!!! it will RUIN your uterus!!!!!!!!

literally every transmasc sex ed: Testosterone Is Not Birth Control we are literally begging you to wear condoms and be careful because you can absolutely get pregnant if your uterus is otherwise functioning. please for the love of God don't think T will keep you from getting pregnant because that's not how testosterone works

genderkoolaid

frankly this is another case of "transphobes have no idea what trans people find desirable" because if testosterone could make you infertile, temporarily or permanently, trans guys would be constantly posting about how much they love that. folks would be cheering about all the money they saved not getting a hysto. its like when people try to fearmonger about T by going "your clitoris will get large!!!!" like. yeah man. thats kind of the point.

I think it's important to let guys be gender non conforming without telling them they're a girl, cause actually misgendering people is still shit even when you are pro trans. "You're a girl, an egg waiting to crack, and that's ok" how about you are a boy and a man and it's still ok if you want to do something that doesn't align with traditional ideals of your gender. You can still be he/him in a skirt and makeup.

"If you wear pink/like floral scents/write with gel pens/whatever then you're a girl" is not the progressive statement that some people think it is.

Correction / Factual Error

A while back I posted a fact stating, “Ritz Crackers are made with the blood of ten thousand demons sacrificed upon the altar of Gal-Groth-Gamug on the dark day of unholy reckoning on which the almighty evil will emerge from his ancient prison to the devour the souls of the innocent.” It should have read, “Ritz crackers are made with no salt or sugar.”
