gender expression ≠ gender identity
gender identity ≠ sexuality
sexuality ≠ gender expression

like... these are all DIFFERENT THINGS, and that should not be hard to understand.

soft/feminine gender expression does not make a cis man a trans woman.

a trans woman isn't a woman because she's attracted to men. she's a woman because she's a woman. her gender identity tells you nothing about who she's attracted to.

how exhausting must it be to be a cishet automaton marcing around in your fast-fashion gender identity, gender expression, and sexuality when the bespoke couture boutique was right there the whole time. you could have found something that fit you and allowed you to expand beyond the trendy outfit that will wear out by next season. instead you'll wear that ill-fitting getup until it's in rags while the rest of us discuss fine fabrics, new fittings, and elegant accessories.

you sputter and gasp, decrying the complexity of our words, because they describe a life of luxury you've never touched and can't begin to understand.

while we quietly laugh, arm in arm, and continue on our way. knowing our ease in being ourselves is worth every bit of your buffoonery we have to dodge as you try to bring us down to your level.

*Thud

The word, #Bondi, also referred to as Bundi, Bundye and Boondye, originates from the Dharawal word for a loud thud noise, due to the sound made by waves breaking over rocks. The word is also associated with clubs, or fighting sticks, due to the loud thud noise made on impact.

Your first chapter needs to set the scene, establish key characters (there is an exception here for murder mysteries where the opening is usually finding the body), and set the tone for the book.

Well uh, guess I'm uninstalling LibreWolf now and using Vivaldi exclusively as the only browser to make a #NoAI commitment to my knowledge?

we are aware of this and this will, of course, be removed/disabled. The sole reason it is till in there is because it slipped through, so to speak. It says "LibreWolf" in the message because, indeed, Firefox' name gets automatically replaced with "LibreWolf" as part of the build process, so that happened there, too.

Sorry for the confusion to y'all. But rest assured: we definitely haven't suddenly "switched sides" - we still absolutely don't want "generative AI" related stuff in LW.

Thank you to the devs and volunteers for this amazing browser, you folks have earned my respect over the years.
