“The world is full of wonder,”I would tell you. If you would listen. If you would listen, I could tell you of the songs the trees whisper,and of sky-soaring battles high above the world which you ignore, every day. I would tell you the tales of what you miss. Of the creatures with pointed ears and teeth on the subway and the slipper left behind, made not of glass, but of dried leaf, ever so much more brittle.

The 2025 Gender Census is now open!
[ Link to survey ]
The 12th annual international gender census, collecting information about the language we use to refer to ourselves and each other, is now open until 30th August 2025.
It’s short and easy, for most participants it takes 5 minutes or less.
After the survey is closed I’ll process the results and publish a spreadsheet of the data and a report summarising the main findings. Then anyone can use them for academic or business purposes, self-advocacy, tracking the popularity of language over time, and just feeling like we’re part of a huge and diverse community.
If you think you might have friends and followers who’d be interested, please do reblog this blog post, and share the survey URL by email or at AFK social groups or on other social networks. Every share is extremely helpful!
Survey URL: https://survey.gendercensus.com
The survey is open to anyone anywhere who speaks English and feels that the gender binary doesn’t fully describe their experience of themselves and their gender(s) or lack thereof.
If you can't wait for survey numbers, you can click here for a public spreadsheet of non-secret info with graphs as it comes in, updated manually a few times per day.
Thank you so much!

I'm 100% waiting for someone to turn their Apple Watch into a pocket watch.
really funny that many wireless earbud cases are almost the perfect size to go on the end of a watch chain in a waistcoat pocket. hashtag modern fob ideas

I have seen this (style of change, not this specific performance) in person and it is just as astonishing!
Actress performs a scene from Journey to the West "Three Times Striking the White-Bone Demon" in Wu Opera (Wuju), a traditional Chinese local opera originating from Jinhua, Zhejiang Province. Its name comes from the ancient name of Jinhua "Wuzhou" (婺州).

I cannot imagine the mess generative AI would spit out as a sewing pattern or pattern adjustment. I'm almost tempted to try and build whatever garbage is hallucinates, just to demonstrate how bad it would be. Almost.
Reblog if your art project has not, does not, and never will make use of generative ai at any point in your creative process.
