„Es war einmal ein Kind, das hatte alles Spielzeug dieser Welt. Es spielte mit diesem, bis es zerbrach, doch das kümmerte das Kind nicht, denn es hatte ja so viel davon. Eines Tages war das Kind krank und klagte dem Spielzeug sein Leid. Da sprach das Spielzeug: es kümmerte dich nicht, als ich zerbrach, was kümmert mich dein Leid?“ („Once upon a time there was a child who had all the toys in the world. It played with them until they broke, but the child didn't care because it had so many of them. One day the child was ill and complained to the toy. There the toy said: You didn't care when I broke, what do I care about your suffering?“)

the thing about being nonbinary is that you really do start to forget that other people have such strict walls around what is and isn’t allowed for genders. i thought we all agreed that we made that up. could you climb out of the cave real quick and feel the sunshine for a minute.
