gendering your baby feels kind of like calling a skein of yarn a "sweater." like, yes, it might turn out to be a sweater, and it's probably gonna look like one at least for a while if you decide to knit it into one.
but ultimately, it could become anything, and even if you shape it into a sweater... it could all unravel someday.
ultimately, we don't control other people. we can observe and support them, or we can push our expectations on them. connect, or set them up to perform for you.
What's up with American food recipes being terrified of measuring stuff by weight? I mean even something like "a tablespoon of flour" can mean a whole range of amounts depending on the size of the spoon and whether you dose the flour flat on the spoon or if you create a mound..
And then there's stuff like measuring raw ginger by length which absolutely baffles me cuz like have you ever seen ginger root?? It's like the most irregular object at the grocery aisle which way am I even supposed to measure out an inch??
I do appreciate that the shop reused the box, though, and judging from the writings on the box (which didn't match my shipment) this was actually at least the *second* time that this box was reused!

Strong views about abolishing oppression, hierarchy, agency, and self-governance - but I also trust people by default and give them room to grow, unless they give me reason not to. That all also applies to technology and how it's built.
