technology, ableism, and environmentalism 

reminder:
disabled people rely on technology. we rely on social media when we can't leave the house and need people to talk to. we rely on non-recyclable plastics to distribute safe, sterile medical supplies. we rely on cars when public transit isn't accessible. we rely on plastic straws, delivery services, and more.

your concerns for the environment cannot leave us out.

the answer to "what did you do before those things?" is "die or suffer, mostly."

gender feels, personal, a little silly but still serious. +, definitely now 

The long and short of this is that this is not the exact sequence of events, but basically I'm not certain "girl" fits either?? But the more I think about it, the more being a femme leaning agender/nb fits me, and the happier I am with it... I'll never pass as a girl probably, but... I dunno if I want to? Though it definitely want to be less masculine looking. So, thank you everyone for helping me get here :) <3

Me: geez, all the masculine things about my body make me feel awful. When people refer to me as male it feels wrong somehow??
Friends: it's dysphoria
Evidence: *all pointing to a sign saying "Dysphoria, plus you may be trans"*
My brain: shit, I'm rumbled. }:/
Me: nah, surely not. I can't possibly not want to be at all masculine in any way and ohhhhhhhhh.... Fuck.
