Today is hectic and I only have time to post a total of two spiffy things!
First, Gender Outlaw started up a site called The Transman Mapping Project

The idea is simple: just add your name or alias (it can be anonymous) and a marker to the map so that we can create a bird’s eye view of how transmen are spread out around the world.Second and not at all related to this blog, my friend sent me a link to the neatest thing since vegan marshmallows earlier today - an article about this amazing quadruped robot called "BigDog". Watching it move around in the video is super surreal. Neat.
If you’ve ever had that feeling of being alone in your transition, a quick look at the map will show you otherwise. We really are everywhere! -Gender Outlaw
Didn't realize that normal marshmallows aren't vegan. Glad you found a viable alternative.
ReplyDeleteMy brain keeps telling me that the big dog is just two skinny people facing each other and walking around. It has a hard time with the fact that it's a robot! But I love the part where its walking on ice!
ReplyDeleteKammorremae: "Normal" marshmallows are made out of gelatin:
ReplyDelete"Gelatin (from French gélatine) is a translucent, colorless, brittle, nearly tasteless solid substance, derived from the collagen inside animals' skin and bones."
Most definitely NOT vegan. ;]
Kegg: I know! It's hard for my brain to process, too. And, of course, I can't help imagine what robots of the future are going to look like. It's bewildering.
