I get my service dog tomorrow but could still use funds and supplies as we go for training and in general. Here's my website with all my donation links and info about me and my dog:

Zeke's Service Dog Fundraiser supports Zeke getting a professionally-trained cardiac alert, autism/PTSD, and mobility multi-purpose service

I may not know everything about gay culture but at least I’m not afraid to say queer like a zoomer

In response to the recent news I have learned that the demi flag that currently exists draws its origins from N*zi imagery, @estheefania and I have designed new demisexual and demiromantic flags!

The colors all mean the same things, but these flags are intended to be more safe for Jewish people and other groups that would feel prosecuted and attacked identifying with a flag that uses imagery from the N*zis.

Read the blog DNI and don’t start discourse on this post. PLEASE REBLOG to spread awareness!!

So, I just found out that RBG died via tumblr, and I just feel really numb. She was a huge role model for our house during my second year of grad school.

She just seemed so invincible, and I seem so mortal. Like, it’s weird. I feel like there are those people that we always assume are going to outlive us no matter how old they are.

Losing RBG, is like losing a mother or an aunt that you now live far away from. I may not have said much about her. I may have “forgotten to call” most of the time. But, her absence is felt deeply for me.

I was planning on working on my novel tonight. I have plans to publish the first dystopian novel series in which every narrator is on the autism spectrum. The cast of characters, across the 3 novels, is deliberately diverse in neurotype, race, physical ability, and gender expression while still recognizing the unique differences in the desires and experiences of my LGBT characters in particular.

I realize that maybe it was a little omen that I should write tonight. Because that story is my resistance. My existence is resistance.

MOGAI literally just means Marginalized Orientations, Gender Alignments, and Intersex. That's what it stands for.

No, it's not just another word for nonbinary, and it doesn't automatically mean microlabels.

If you've been marginalized because of your orientation, or because your actual gender doesn't line up with your official birth assignment, or you're intersex, then you're MOGAI.

It's a superior alternative to LGBTQIAP2SN*+&etc that just includes everyone from the get-go instead of centering a few popular labels and becoming endlessly more cumbersome while making the margins of the margins have to fight for their inclusion.

It's an alternative to using queer as an umbrella term that doesn't assume anyone is cool enough to be called queer.

Literally the only thing wrong with MOGAI is that not as many people know what it means. But that's one of the easiest problems to fix.
