I think it only feels silly because of the way we've been conditioned. You don't explicitly feel nor look "like a woman" (or however you end up identifying) so using different pronouns is simply Weird. And that's okay.

I find it helpful to "practice" in online settings and in games, as you mentioned. Any game that allows you to select your name, gender, modify your presentation, and see yourself in the 3rd person is good, like Stardew Valley. I also use SnapChat with my queer, transitioning friends. All of my friends know who I am and my pronouns, so when we have game nights (online or in person), they'll refer to me correctly.

It takes practice.

I have an account for that instance too, hah. I might make that my main. Definitely my people!

this is what the right is afraid we'll use on children

I am not yet 30 and have flamingos on two clothing items. I've also photographed a wild flamingo! I think you're good, haha.

The ability to identify practically any bird or reptile in North America. I get friends asking me what things are all the time... then trying to extend my knowledge to fungi and plants (which I'm getting better with, but not at the same level). It doesn't feel too niche until I interact with my friends outside of biology.

I know it's accurate, but as a relatively younger birder and wildlife biologist, that's just insane to me. I too have a few bird tattoos (and another next weekend). It's hard to imagine more birds out there, but easy to imagine more species going the way of the ivory-billed.

Thanks!

I don't remember how many hours, but quite a few. I've done three temples and most of the quests you get from townsfolk before/after the temples, minus the Gerudo region (haven't been there yet). I enjoy it a lot. I'm not a huge Nintendo person, but I quite liked BotW, and naturally TotK is a great follow-up.

Chicken Horse is awesome and very repayable with friends as you unlock more characters and places. It takes some time to unlock more stuff (kinda like Smash), but we don't find it too boring or tedious in the process.

Broadly, my thesis is in ecology of an iguana species. Nearly done, but trying not to just play games all day, heh.

Thanks, definitely one of the most stunning I've seen! They just look fake.

Just TotK. The only other game I play on Switch is Chicken Horse with friends. Unfortunately, I have a thesis to finish.

I am currently playing TotK with three temples done but haven't gone to the Gerudo region yet. I have most of the geoglyphs done on the central/eastern part of the map and haven't followed any order. I did do the Hebra geoglyph. It's a big one, but the tear should be there! It's smaller than others I feel.

I've never envied those with faith. I feel freedom and have comfort in knowing that I am a good person with good morals without being threatened by some mysterious being that allows such disgusting hatred to exist in their creation.
