  • 10,000 B.C: Understanding Earth’s Layers

    Professor Challenger, who made the Earth scream with his pain machine in a story by Arthur Conan Doyle, gave a talk after mixing books on geology and biology. He said the Earth is like a body without organs. This means it has many different things moving around inside it.

    But that was not the main point. He talked about something important that happens on Earth called stratification. This means there are layers, like belts, that form and organize things. These layers capture and hold things together, like black holes.

    Professor Challenger read a sentence from a geology book. He said we need to remember it: “A surface of stratification is a plane of consistency lying between two layers.” The layers are strata and they come in pairs. The surface between them is a special area that connects them.

    God is like a lobster with two claws. Strata come in pairs, and each layer has two parts. This double articulation means layers have two steps: first, they pick units from moving particles, and second, they make stable structures from these units.

    In geology, the first step is sedimentation, which makes layers of sediment. The second step is folding, which turns sediment into rock.

    obviously a lot is lost, but it exceeded my expectations to be honest








  • that faux-equality shit they pull where men/women, white/black, cis/trans etc. are all presumed equal and it’s just individuals that display “in-group biases” and really it’s the poor white men that get all the backlash because of woke or some shit is so tiring, you just can’t get through to them.

    This is news to me because I have been condescended to exponentially more as a decently passing white trans woman by cis white men in particular than I ever was before transition by ANYONE.

    However, your anecdotal experience is just that. I have been subject to exponentially more racist abuse from black individuals than from individuals of any other race.

  • tbh, i like that my name was chosen before i was born. that way, aside from things like ethnicity and gender, it’s pretty much disconnected from who i am.

    when i came out as trans and had to pick a new name i hated that i already had all these associations with them and i dreaded someone asking me why i picked those in particular. in the end i settled on two names my parents picked as girl names before i was born (which looking back i had already identified somewhat with when i first heard them as a kid).
