    Russia will collapse tommorow and then China will collapse on Tuesday. Following this, China and Russia will take over the world on Wednesday, however due to their failing economies they will immidiately collapse a second time afterwords.


  • I personally am much more comfortable when people’s love for me is conditional. I like to know that it is based on real aspects of who I am, and thus would not be guaranteed to stay if those things changed in a way the other person was not happy with. If love is truly “unconditional,” if there is no change in myself that would make you revoke it, then do you really love me, or do you love the abstracted idea of me?


  • So… speaking as someone who is trans myself, I think the part of this that makes it difficult to make that last assertaion is… how do we know that there is an innate sense of gender (in the self) that is separate from the social construction of gender? I have a very strong sense of what my gender is but… how do I know that didn’t develop it at least partially from my interactions with the society I live in? I don’t know where my “sense of gender” came from, and I don’t know if it’s innate or learned. Either way it’s a very real experience.
