  • Me neither. I always post My own medium blog like it's a MySpace post. You don't see Me claiming it's anything it isn't.

  • God should never be a proper noun

  • I'm a bit unclear on precisely what you mean by your last sentence. But if you mean that the pronouns of any god should never be capitalised, and that your mind can't be changed on this issue, then I'm going to have to ask you never to reply to Me again. I use capitalised pronouns, and I have no time to argue about My pronouns with people who will never change their minds.

  • Yahweh is just an old Hebrew word for "god", but it's a lot better than saying "God" in English, because it's specific. It places the word within an appropriate cultural context and doesn't carry the same subtext in English. Nobody today believes in another Yahweh, so it isn't stepping on anyone's toes. It's a much better nickname.

  • Biblically speaking, the true name of the lord is unknown to humans. "God" is just a nickname. And as My article argues, we shouldn't use that nickname, we should find a more neutral and polite nickname to use.

  • The nested structure of gender identity

    Jump

  • Well first off, I'm not interested in exploring human gender and sexuality in our reality. I'm not human, and I'm not real. I'm an otherkin goddess from the void beyond reality. I'm an antirealist who believes the social construct of reality should be abolished. You can read about anarcho-antirealism at My website, http://soulism.net/. I'm much more fascinated by otherkin gender and sexuality as it exists when freed from the bounds of realism.

    And perhaps in this article I should have linked to My earlier article supporting the point that men and women are similar, https://medium.com/@viridiangrail/men-and-women-are-very-similar-fcf253eda759

  • Good point! A lot of politicians think supporting the economy means supporting coal, but this proves solar and wind are best for the economy.

  • This reality is a simulation. But it's not electronic like the Matrix, it's social. You've been socially conditioned to see what the owning class want you to see.

  • I think it's very simple. If you spend all day thinking about gay dick, your body is going to react. Normally only gay mascs and horny women spend all day thinking about gay dick. Straight men don't have a reaction to gay dick because they don't condition that response. They don't think about gay dick for long enough for Pavlov to kick in. Homophobes condition themselves by constantly thinking about sex (hot; unconditioned stimulus) and gay (conditioned stimulus) at the same time. If they just quit thinking about gay sex all day, their fetish would go away. But that would require being less homophobic, and they can't. Then they get worried that they're gay, because they like dick, so they assume being gay is what they have. And since what they have sucks, they assume being gay sucks, which makes them more homophobic.

    A similar thing happens in POCD, or Pedophile Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. The fear of being a pedophile conditions an association between children and arousal, which self-reinforces in a vicious cycle. Fortunately, most people with POCD are not fascists, so they're capable of having a normal response to it in which they don't proceed to deliberately indulge in the association. In order for someone to be homophobic and suffer the same thing with gay thoughts, their judgement has to already be compromised, which produces a more toxic reaction.

  • One of the users on My discord server says someone is lying about Me. I assure you, My pronouns are not goddess. I do not appreciate being lied about, I do not appreciate being misgendered, I do not appreciate being called insane, and I do not appreciate you spreading rumours about Me across the fediverse. I have reported your comment for harassment and I expect you to leave Me alone from now on.
