New gender term for me: Infracis

[Image ID: A 7 striped flag with thin dividing stripes in between each stripe. The stripes are uneven sizes, symmetrically getting smaller as they go toward the middle. Colors, in descending order, are: salmon pink; black divider stripe; dark dusty violet; gray divider stripe; very dark gray; white divider stripe; gradient from red to purple to blue to green; white divider stripe; very dark gray; gray divider stripe; dark dusty indigo; black divider stripe; blue. End ID.]

Infracis is a identity for cisness that is queer in its cisness. It subverts traditional ideas of what 'cis' means, and/or it is being cis in such a way that identifying as cis, or as your AGAB/ASAB, is more abnormal or unexpected than identifying as trans would be.

Some reasons that someone would identify as infracis:

1. They are intersex and identify with intergender, and/or with "intersex" as their gender identity, and thus consider themselves cisgender. Because this is not the traditional image of an aptobinary, perisex cis person, they would be infracis

2. They are multigender and consider themselves at least partially cis, but since cisness usually refers to aptobinary cis people, they are infracis

3. They are nonbinary and don't want to transition, so they feel they relate more to cisness, but because they are nonbinary it is expected that they would identify with trans, and not cis, so they would be infracis

4. They identify with an identity that is close to their AGAB or aligned with it, but isn't exactly it (like an AMAB xenoboy).

5. They are transgender and cissexual, cisgender and transsexual, or any other cis-trans combo that makes their cisness queer, so they're infracis

6. They're gender non-conforming and their cisness is constantly called into question because of the way they subvert it.

Or any other queer experience with gender and sex that makes one feel like they're cis in a nonconformant way, or subverting cisness. I'm multigender (aporagender + girl), isocis, and a label collector. I've joked that I'm "the least cisgender cis person" and I feel like my cisness is both subversive to traditional cisness because of my queer gender identity, and queer in its cisness because most people would assume I'm under the trans umbrella or just fully iso, because how genderqueer I am doesn't usually fit the idea of what a cis person is.

Etymology: Infra- meaning "below" "beneath" or "under" and cis from "cisgender," meaning "identifying with one's assigned gender at birth." The prefix "Infra-" was chosen for a few reasons. First, because of the subversion aspect of infracis. Second, because in the color spectrum, infra-red is a shade of red that's just outside of the visible light spectrum, so it both explains the way infracis transcends and goes beyond traditional cisness, as well as paying homage to the relative invisibility of infracis people's inherently queer cisness.

[brooklyn-house-week]

Welcome to Brooklyn House Week!

We're a Riordanverse fandom event that focuses on the Brooklyn House, the 21st Nome of the House of Life from The Kane Chronicles.

We want to celebrate the relationships and community of the inhabitants of the Brooklyn House, be it familial, platonic, romantic, or a secret third thing. We want to explore the unseen corners of the House, see the sibling-like relationships between the minor characters, watch them do mundane, daily tasks and bicker. The Kane Chronicles are a wonderful series, and it deserves more love! 🫀

Every year, we dedicate the first full week of March to reblogging creations of other fans, mostly (but not always) under specifically-themed days. This year's prompts are here.

This year's themes are picked, but feel free whenever to hit us with ideas for next year in our ask box.

Other useful posts are our rules, or about our tagging system.

INFRA (2016)

[mutter-official]

considering using nixos for my homelab when I redo my infra this summer

rn everything is bare-metal Arch with some Docker containers on top. I wanna get rid of the Docker containers because I don't like how opaque they make my dependencies, so I'm planning on moving everything over to proxmox VMs to maintain separation of concerns while still keeping easy direct access to the shell and configuration and deps and all that

however. doing so either requires me to manually manage all of the upgrades and configuration and everything for the software running inside those VMs, or to use some kind of automation tool to handle deployment, updates, management, etc.

I could use Ansible, but Ansible has some problems (like removing a package from your playbook doesn't always remove it from your system)... and nix is really starting to look appealing

someone please talk me out of this. I'm a rust programmer, so I have some idea how functional stuff works, but writing nix code still kind of sounds like pain and suffering, and I'm really looking for a better solution... but right now nix is looking really good

Okay since recent events on main happened here's something to go with infracis (and other infra-terms I want to coin):

Infraphobia or Inframisia (n):

The discrimination against people who use an infra- identity (ex: infracis). Infraphobia typically manifests in disregarding the person's infra- identity and trying to push them under a different term (ex: trying to convince an infracis person that they are trans or isogender, not cis), or in disregarding the person's queerness and unique relationship with their infra- identity in favor of viewing them as a normative person, weaponizing their infra- identity to erase the rest of them (ex: ignoring an infracis person's genderqueer identity because they're cis, treating them like they're aptobinary, perisex, and cisgender instead of being cisgender in an inherently queer way).

Infraphobia is not just discrimination against the infra- identity. Infraphobia directed at infracis people, for example, isn't cisphobia or discrimination against someone for being cis. It is specifically the discrimination against someone for being that identity in a non-normative way, where people who identify with it in a normative way do not experience that discrimination. Again on the infracis example, infracis people are discriminated against for their cis identity in a way that cis people who identify with cis in a normative way do not, specifically because infracis people identify with their cisness in a queer way
