This.

My gender is Dorothy L. Sayers ("not very feminine, but intensely female") and/or Jo Walton ("this is a perfectly valid way to be a woman"). I absolutely refuse either to perform MAGA womanhood, or to cede womanhood to them.

Guess what, buttercup, life's not fair, and sports aren't either. My genes are so shitty my body's trying to kill me, so I can't play sporys, but I'm not out here whining. Life's not fair, bodies differ, "women" is a social construct, and if she's cis, she ALWAYS gets to ball, DSD or not, fuck you.

I own a tiny electric car and get all my energy, including my heat, from hydroelectricity. Bring it on.

(Ironically, the element of my life that uses the most fossil fuel is ... public transit.)

Highly amused to see this skeet getting a bunch of new engagement from Alison linking to the thread in today's column

More like 30 years, I remember the beginning of it when I was in high school!
