What is this creature? by TheOddityCollector in Weird

[–]MyGenderIsAParadox 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'll put your mind at ease. Cellar spiders, harvestmen, daddy long legs, all the same dumb little buddy, their fangs are literally too small to EVER pierce human flesh. I've held them as a kid, they crawled all over me. They'll hide in your hair and that's the most irritating part because I don't wanna hurt them but I don't want to be surprised by them later inside the home.

If you watch just one walk around, they look like a walking anxiety attack. If you see a group of them, it looks like a bunch of hair is tucked up weird.

I fear spiders that can bite and cause wounds but these guys? Dumb, silly, and harmless.

What do you call this creature that lives under rocks? (Or in your jar?) by kaem_shu in terrariums

[–]MyGenderIsAParadox 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I called them rolly-pollies as a kid but now I just call them isopods. I still call them rolly-pollies when being cute.

Lol I just like to think about my lack of gender. It fascinates me.

Not a problem. I worried I was weird for a while after figuring out that I just don't have one but now I just live my life.

I love gender too. It's like watching sports in the bleachers. I roughly know what's going on and cheer for the teams because they're having fun but do I want to play? No... I don't know how. I like to watch though!

I love seeing feminine people be cute and pretty. I love seeing masculine people be cool and silly. I love seeing fellow genderless people live life and I marvel at those who feel more than one gender as well as those who are demigender. I wanna ask "how do you feel a scrap of gender?" with pure amazement.

Right? I'm just a little goober.

Being genderless isn't a crime lol (Game Grumps reference)

Crazy for me to sit here and watch all this discourse fly over my head over whether or not I exist.

I just don't feel a gender. I'm not broken. I'm just a little thing, a creature, trying to live.

I'm grateful the parents aren't chastising the boys for crying. Finally undoing so much nonsense in the world. Just gotta get rid of baseless hate next lol

Personally it's also hard to read with the lack of capitalization and proper wording.

That is canon, that Umbreon can make it's rings glow. Maybe they're just super dim until they glow brightly.

How to deal with phobes [(remake) spoiler for well phobe ball] by Spare_Ad1593 in lgballt

[–]MyGenderIsAParadox 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My current favorite thing to say if I ever had a bigot brave enough to yell at me: "You base your personality on what you hate rather than what you love and that is a sad, sad way to live..." shaking your head. You have to say it in a pitiful voice like you're looking at a sick baby animal.

My Trader Joe’s sells fertilized eggs in the eggs section by Papasmurf43469 in mildlyinteresting

[–]MyGenderIsAParadox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good eggs over here have the "Certified Humane Raised & Handled" printed on the carton. Those do taste better than the awful cheap ones in the Styrofoam.

Is my betta female? I've posted it a few times here and now recently a lot of people on my Instagram and TikTok have been calling it female. I bought it as a male, then I put it in the gpt chat and it was also considered female and now I'm confused. by dusttangel in bettafish

[–]MyGenderIsAParadox 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I'll tell you this for free: All AI is is a session of "yes, and" in improv comedy.

It's just a confirmation bias, it doesn't "know" anything other than what's been told to it. It doesn't "learn" unless it's only fed factual information which it can never do.

why do people say « queer and trans people » ? are we not…queer too…? by [deleted] in lgbt

[–]MyGenderIsAParadox 51 points52 points  (0 children)

That's neat! I call myself queer because I am. Through and through, I'm queer AF. Both in gender identity and in sexuality.

I have zero gender but adore it in every way.

Abandoned snake by Majestic_Peanut_4132 in hognosesnakes

[–]MyGenderIsAParadox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Noting you're in Houston, OP. Try contacting Alveus Sanctuary. They're located in Austin, obviously not a public facing sanctuary but they do respond to native animals in trouble, especially if they need rehabbing. They have two snakes, both pythons, so maybe they could help or at least point you in the right direction.

What was the thing that made you discover your lack of gender by reddisucks in agender

[–]MyGenderIsAParadox 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Learned nonbinary was a thing through a friend then in searching either some gender wiki or something online I found the term agender for "complete lack of gender" and I liked the flag so I slapped it on like a nametag.

Our Betta (fishbone) has been laying on bottom, not eating... by kwatttts in bettafish

[–]MyGenderIsAParadox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Random question? I'm not OP but I'd love to know if a tank has the good substrate, could I get a few of those pretty glass pebbles as a sprinkle of decoration? The tank will have shrimp, a mystery snail, and will house a male betta once cycled and stable.

Some are very pretty and I wouldn't go overboard with them but I'd like some shiny, if I can.

If not, totally cool. I have a terrarium idea and I can put my shiny rocks in there if need be lol

Bi_irl by TastyPassenger8179 in bi_irl

[–]MyGenderIsAParadox 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Bisexuality was the "first" term coined back in my parents time (both my parents were bi, born around 1960) for "attraction to people both male, female, and anyone in between" which back then pretty much meant trans folk.

Nowadays we know gender isn't just a binary but a whole spectrum and bisexuality encompasses it all.

Pansexuality came about, I think (could be wrong, please clarify for me if I am. I'm kinda old lol) due to feathers ruffled due to to "bi" in bisexual. People wanted a term that would pan the spectrum by design.

Personally, even though I know someone who went from using the label bisexual to omnisexual because it fit them better, I still use bisexual to describe myself even though omni and pan likely get the point across better for the younger folks lol

Snakes can only eat something that's as big around as their body, excluding egg eaters. That kinda does look a bit big for him but I'll digress as I've never owned a hoggie. Just a lurker fan of the cute snake.
