It just seems incredibly odd for there to be so many lines in a book about gender insisting that there is no way to refer to someone (in the English language, at least) without implying gender. She even mentions the possibility of using „it“ at one point!

I’m liking the book otherwise, but every time the narrators ponder about pronouns without even considering „they“ I have to ask myself if there is any point in ignoring it or if she genuinely just forgot. I don’t think it’s possible for her to have not known about it considering how well-read she was and how long it’s been in use.

Pretty neat if it is, though I have no idea why she’s there

why does it low key sound good though

This is what an unscheduled 5 week F1 break does to a brother.

I've never done something like this before, but I thought I'd try it since I couldn't find anything in this style online. There's a few things I couldn't find out how to change (like the background color for the themes that aren't coal) and a few settings that I couldn't figure out what they changed so if you have any alternations you'd make please let me know, as I'm still not sure if I'm quite happy with it yet.

Since Fluxer HQ, which seems to be the only way to find communities at this point, isn't working currently: Do you have any recommendations for public communities to join? Currently just looking for any general communities with a decent amount of members to see how well it works

SciFi Mystery anime about Doppelgängers. There doesn't seem to be a release schedule other than that there's three episodes planned to release throughout the year. First episode looks pretty good though, so I'm looking forward to more!
