  • Well. "Soulism" sounds very much opposed to my own worldview and politics, to a point where I'm not really interested in participating in that. But you can do what you want, obviously, it's just a link to a pdf!

    Based on the manifesto, I would suggest that soulism is just another model which divides body from mind ("matter" and "information"), and that it doesn't account for the way political forces are involved in producing subjectivity, identity, desire, and the individuated bodymind. I had something like a psychotic episode related to mind/body dualism a few years ago, and I try not to engage with or involve myself with ideas like that now, cause it brings back feelings of like, chaos and instability.

  • Neopronouns are cool. The fact that they're less legible to cis people than more "respectable" forms of address isn't a bad thing, and your friend shouldn't make fun of them. But being in that position means they are more conspicuous and draw a lot of negative attention. I use it/its pronouns sometimes, in addition to she/her, but the cis people I know really do not like or cooperate with that.

  • Bad habits and poor decisions

  • not surprising, I remember watching spider move when I was a kid and thinking they were obviously intelligent. sure they creep me out but I hate killing them for no reason, same with literally any other living thing
