conversation I have with my ferret 1000x a day

Wish y'all wouldn't only talk about fem bi men in jokes about getting pegged :/

If your first reaction to seeing a gnc man partnered with an equally gnc woman is to go "I just know the sexual roles are reversed 😏" I just think that's a weird jump to make and I don't know if regressive is the word but it's definitely uncreative.

I keep thinking about how I know a lot of masc bi guys. And I've known "bicurious" femme gay men who literally couldn't unpack their gendered attraction to women because they were so ingrained that being fem was uniquely gay trait. So then, yes, I do think it's weird to then see videos of fem bi men existing with their girlfriends and either hearing "is he hiding something 🤔" or "She MUST top" It's very very weird that that's the only interaction y'all have.

I talk about lgbt men every chance that I get to because you have got to understand the ways in which male identity is erased. If patriarchy can convince you all that being fem equals bottoming, being submissive and otherwise womanly, and/or that being butch means being dominant, topping, and otherwise taking on a defined patriarchal role, none of you are doing work in your downtime to unlearn gender roles and how femme and butch are terms that subvert them, not reinforce. 🤦🏾‍♀️

I'm embarrassed sometimes honestly.

Reblog this version!

I love that the only thing that slows it down is being too fucking tiny to make the teeter totter tilt the other way.

I met a guy on MySpace when I was 13 many moons ago. He lived the next town over. We talked about David Bowie, and stayed friends when we both abandoned MySpace. Every few years we’d discuss meeting up and hanging out and never actually followed through.

His 33rd birthday party is tonight, and I have a passive invitation. Do I show up? Would that be funny? I don’t really have anything in common with him anymore but I do like the idea of crashing a party of a near stranger who’s known me most of his life.

Fuck it. I made him a jarrarium so I have to go. As my partner said, my willingness to commit to the bit is one of my most attractive qualities.

Showing up with red eyeliner and three days of facial hair, a silver scarf, a military jacket, and psychedelic cowboy rain boots. MySpace boy doesn’t know what’s in store for him (jar of wet plants).

ONCE AGAIN choosing chaos works out great for me.

Deciding to crash MySpace boy’s party unannounced after a lifetime and years of no contact led me to a den of bisexual polyamory, cats that took a pet like no problem, and an extremely long and powerful hug from a drunk girl, and a bunch of likely new friends who eagerly recommended canes that light up and glow in the dark.

the tsa stops me because my carryon had too much liquid and they open it and its just full of blood

Oh, this is a type of shorthand!

There are 3 main types, but from my research, this looks to be American Gregg Shorthand.

As you can see, there are set symbols for every letter.

Let’s break one of the words down:

Using the Gregg Alphabet as reference, we can see most of the letters in “atrophied” are present. But why no “o” vowel, and why is “ph” written as “f”?

Simple. In shorthand, you cut out all vowels in a word when writing it down, with the exception of words that BEGIN or END with a vowel (hence the “a” at the start being present), or like in the “i” in “atrophied”, to make it more readable when the sound could be harder to distinguish if it isn’t written. In “atrophied” if the the “i” isn’t written, it could be hard to tell if the writer meant a “fud”, “fad”, “fod” or “fid” sound, for example.

Also, since Shorthand is a phonetic writing system, you are encouraged to write down the phonetic sounds of words rather than the actual letter blends - in this case, write an “f” instead of a “ph”.

So in actuality, these aren’t just meaningless scribbles - it’s Gregg Shorthand, a writing system developed to take down notes more quickly than when written out in full, which is very useful in a medical or journalistic environment.

Some people can even write over 100 words in a minute! And, it’s been in use since John Robert Gregg invented it in 1888! Wow! So old!

Isn’t language amazing~?
