fig. 1: the gender diamond, centered on two axes, at a jaunty angle because i wanted it to be
fig. 2: the gender prism, with the top and bottom binary faces and the four societal faces, and one more because it got messy
fig. 3: the gender dodecagon, which i think is a crime against graphic designers
fig. 4: we took some of your concerns into consideration and have reworked it into a fantasy map, because that is how the gender is, like the game of genders, haha
fig. 5: the gender rabbits, we heard your concerns again and we decided to go for more of a symbolic gestalt representation of the manifestations of gender
my favorite grindr meeting was the time a guy who was like 20 invited me over to his house and i got there and he messaged me “i’m showering but the door is open so just come in” so i did and i sat down on a sofa in his living room and joanna newsom was playing lightly over the speakers and there were a lot of potted orchids everywhere and there was a large bronze male nude in the dining room that i could see from where i was sitting in the living room. eventually he came downstairs and sat at the other end of the sofa from me and started eating a large tupperware container of watermelon and he was like “listen, i’m trying to get this thing off the ground, like, some new gay slang. ive started saying ‘imagine’ whenever something is really weird or funny. do you think you could start using it?” and i was like “……ok” and eventually he finished his watermelon and wordlessly offered the container of watermelon juice to me and i was like “no thanks” and he was like “sorry, thought you seemed like the type of guy to drink the juice after you finished the watermelon” and then he said he had to go to a miz cracker show and asked me to leave. we did not fuck.

I really feel that chambered cairns have proven themselves as the superior time tested building method and I’m not sure why we aren’t capitalising on this knowledge more.
You may think it’s ridiculous now when I build my home as a sort of a narrow passage leading to a room all covered with lots of stone and then maybe turf on top while you sit comfortably in your big modern house, but we’ll see who’s laughing 6,000 years down the line.
must a sport be entertaining to watch?
