The seventh annual international Gender Census 2020 is now open until 12th March!

It's for anyone whose genders (or lack thereof) aren't described by the M/F binary. It's short and easy, and the results are useful in academia, business and self-advocacy.
@maenad these are amazing!

@kirby it's weird though because people have been telling me I'm smart my whole life
which I am, I guess, in some ways. but apparently not in that way
@polychrome @ayo there's a compatible port of magic wormhole which is written in Go and has windows executables available https://github.com/psanford/wormhole-william
@Sylvhem yeah I've met someone who identifies as such. they do exist.

@TonicBH heck yeah
@kirby of course, there's a big leap from knowing someone in a group to saying, "hey, you're cool, let's do something together outside the group". I'm really bad at it and it's something a want to work on. BUT in the meantime, just attending social groups like that fulfills a lot of my socialization needs. and it feels a lot better than twitter.
@kirby what seems to work for me offline is to find groups. for example, in college I met several people i would consider friends through the Linux users group. more recently, i've been going to a local nb meet up and i'm starting to make friends through that. i'm usually super shy at first, but after a few meetings to get comfortable around people it's easier to open up.
can i be real a second? / for just a millisecond? / let down my guard and tell the people how i feel a second?
