this is how I often think about the gender presentation spectrum
(independent of gender expression and gender identity)

review of one of my favorite books, The Deed of Paksenarrion.
"Elizabeth Moon's trilogy feels like it comes from an alternate history or an
extinct branch of the evolution of fantasy. It has a bit of a cult following,
from what I can tell it has been more or less continuously in print since its
release in 1988, but it -- and its author -- have mostly faded into midlist
obscurity. It offers a ton of things that are uncommon in fantasy nowadays, so
people looking for something a bit different might check it out."

if you're just learning how to cook, I highly recommend "Ms. Dash" and "Better
than Boullion" - focus on getting the ingredients and mechanics right, and then
work on seasoning them.
Level 2 is paprika, garlic powder, onion flakes, lime juice, and red pepper
flakes for spice.
level 3 is learning the difference between basil, oregano, parsley, and other
herbs.
be careful with salt and pepper. They can do a lot, but they can also easily do
too much. better to salt to taste.
also, MSG is wonderful for savory dishes. Your body breaks it down into sodium
in your stomach acid so imagine you're adding salt when considering MSG for
healthy proportions.

Good point it's sooooooo salty
I have fond memories of eating a spoonful of that instead of making food back
in college because... hey, it's got vegetables in it, right?
turns out it's mostly just salt with flavor

Nazis could never claim America because the European Jews were very
isolationist. They lived in their towns and lived blessed lives but knew only
each other, as was typical in pre-industrial times.
In America, nazis would have to fight the queers, the blacks, the mexicans, the
liberals, and many more besides. Each of them would fight their own battles but
god is on the side of the plurality of humanity, not the genociders who seek to
prune the trees of the garden of Earth to suit their own shallow fancies.
Though god is a bloodthirsty kind at times, only with righteous anger does he
proclaim that souls must be reaped. Such a time is rare, and comes about when,
for example, an entire people is slain in Europe in the mid 1900s. justice will
be done, though the heavens weep...
There are better and brighter days before us, and there is room for all, should
they not fall on our swords and perish. The far right is a death cult, and they
intend to take all down with it. We cannot allow that, they shall not prevail.
This has been forseen, this is why we convene, and together our perils will
unveil.
