Thinking About Death Being A Part Of The Cycle Of Life. Not In The "all Things Must Die" Way But That

Thinking about death being a part of the cycle of life. Not in the "all things must die" way but that death itself brings new life.

The whale fall feeds the ocean, feeding life from it's death. The old fallen tree provides habitat, food, and gets broken down and returned to the earth. An animal dies and the vultures clean its corpse, not just feeding themselves but reducing disease for those still alive.

Death is so integral to our life, there is not one without the other. We are all in this system, no matter how hard humanity tried to escape it.

I want to phase AGAB language out of my normal use because I'm not intersex and AGAB was meant for intersex people. Does anyone have any good alternatives? I use "person with a uterus" or "person with a penis" or any other anatomy based language when it's relevant to the conversation but there are aspects of my body and experience I want to talk about that aren't just about my organs.

I'm a person who is perceived as a woman. I check off all the boxes for what is considered "standard female anatomy" (big quotes here, I don't think a standard should define us) I grew up raised as a girl, I haven't physically transitioned at all, etc etc etc

I want to be able to acknowledge and expand on these parts of my existence without referring to myself as a woman bc I'm not. I also don't want to be put in the "woman-lite" category. I don't see my body as being gendered even if other people perceive it as being woman gendered. I've considered the term "female-bodied' to describe me but my worry is that language could be used against trans people. I don't like the terms masc or fem for me either because I don't feel masculine or feminine. I don't connect to those terms.

I constantly feel like when I try to explain my experience I run into all sorts of linguistics barriers and it's deeply frustrating to me

Alright I've done the math. I either need to get 100% on my final for a class so I don't fail it or I go back and try to turn in the very first project I missed (that makes me want to rip my hair out) and that my professor might not even grade because it is 3-4 months overdue

"But billionaires' wealth is not cold hard cash."

"But Billionaires' Wealth Is Not Cold Hard Cash."

You fully admit that money is a completely made up concept, but we allow people to starve and live on the street because they don't have enough money, even though there exists enough food and housing for everyone?

Listen, if a Bad President can come in and take away our rights and we're dependent on a Good President replacing them in four years to give us back our rights, then we do not have any rights.

If politicians can take or distribute them, then they're not "inalienable" and they're not "rights."

We don't have inalienable rights we have conditional privileges, divvied out according to the whims of whoever currently holds the reins.

And if we want to have actual rights, then we must build a system in which no one has the power to take them away to begin with.
