exocrinous

Even in nonbinary gender, there's expectations and they're horrible. I'm openly dronegender on this account. And people call me a transphobic troll for it, because they say being trans is only two genders, only the respectable genders. It's why I'm really afraid of being doxxed. I don't want to face this kind of stigma and discrimination all the time. I want the option of staying in the closet some of the time. Unfortunately, some people on Lemmy have tried to "expose" me by accusing me of being various other people. Thankfully, they've been wrong every time so far. But I worry one day they're going to get it right, and I'm going to suffer. And I've seen the people who are accused of being me having to erase their entire digital presence to get away from the violence. That sort of thing was really common on Blahaj Zone, and I resent those who allowed it to happen.

Well I've met lots of otherkin who can understand mother nature as a concept.

I think she should be portrayed as a bee. Bees are the classic example of symbiosis, representing the harmony of nature's systems. Their winter stockpiling behaviour also demonstrates the cycle of the seasons, and they're rather unique in being the single least violent animal species. They don't even hurt the plants they eat. Even herbivores treat plants with violence, but bees are in perfect harmony with their natural environment. They're not violent by nature, but they're capable of violence when driven to it, and also capable of cooperating with those inside and outside the species. Bees are the coolest animal and mother nature should be a bee.

That's disgusting. Pig farmers are evil.

Oh, well that explains it then. I must only be familiar with the American Guardian, that's why I respect them. Had no idea there was two of them.

The roommate was also Chinese?

I've only ever seen positive spins on trans issues from the Guardian. Radicalise me.

Can someone explain Major Tom to me?

Yes I know I have to do things to the beat, I just don't know how. It seems impossible.

There is no search for purpose. That's a viewpoint influenced by thousands of years of authoritarian religions. The belief in "glorious purpose" may not be divine in understanding, but it is divine in causation. What there is instead of a search for purpose, is the creation of purpose. You get to choose. And that choice can even mean choosing to surrender yourself to a god, if that's your informed decision.

Personally, I chose to dedicate my life to doing good. But I think it's a mistake to imagine that the universe wants this of us. The universe is made up of people, and what most people want is to do what they're told, operate according to the systems they know, keep their heads down. If there is an intention the universe has, it's to participate in capitalism and create value for the shareholders. Fortunately, that's fucking silly, and we get the choice not to do that without a fight. We are imbued with radical freedom by our essential nature. It cannot be taken away except by our ongoing consent.

Note that an absurdist or existentialist who likes not having to perform to a divine meaning may prefer this state of affairs to being told what to do. The author is making humour out of scientists gleefully proving nothing matters. But I think glee at nothing mattering should be the normal reaction. Unfortunately, it seems most neurotypicals would rather be told what to do.

Well I've seen a female cock 🏳️‍⚧️

Maybe, but I'm actually dronegender.
