A Genderplayful Marketplace – Do you want it? →
jhameia:
I want to build an online marketplace for gender-variant clothing solutions.
Not a store where I sell to you, but a service like Etsy and Ebay where we sell to each other, in a focused, supportive community. And while we’re at it, we also trade all sorts of tips and inspirations on how best to look the way we want, gender-be-damned.
You know what I’m talking about. Tuxes for hips and...

My mom’s been saying I live out loud. It comes out like a mix between love and justification, like it’s my life goal, and I always thought it was a cop-out of a perspective. Living out loud is like being a writer — in fact, it probably is being a writer — and the trouble with being a writer is that it only works if you have something worthwhile to write about. Living out...

Dear net,
We still have that deal where after I leap, you appear, right? Just wanted to make sure. I might need to take you up on that soon.
Hey, if you ever wanted to try switching the order up so that you go first… No? Okay, sure, yeah, we can do it the traditional way. That’s cool.
Thanks again,
Sarah

Friending vs Following
Friend: I'm guessing you have this same problem: a lot of people feel a lot closer to me than I feel to them.
Me: Yeah, I get that from blogging. But I also have the reverse problem. I can have great, intimate conversations with a person just once or twice a year, and consider them one of my closest friends because of it... but then they look at me like I have three heads when I say something about it... like, "What do you mean? We never see each other."
Secrets that are True in my head
I want to find more people who believe these things.
“God,” “The Universe,” and “The Internet” can often be used interchangeably, and hold similar conceptual roles. (Interconnectedness, ask and ye shall receive, endless opportunity, love love love, bigger than anything and adjusting to take care of us, praying = twittering, and so on.)
Everything is a game.

Good Morning. This is what I'm having for...
A small glass of orange juice from bed while I watch a yummy man get dressed.
A cup of coffee — with a sesame seed floating in it and little soymilk that’s two weeks old — made from a coffee pot that was in pieces this morning. I had to fish the plastic filter cup out of the trashcan. It was disposed of by my non-coffee-pot-operating lover who cleaned up my place while I was...

Back to Messyfilter
Me: I have to start writing an article a week, and my writing muscles are way rusty.
Emma: You need a place where you can write about whatever you want, for an audience, but where you're not focused on the audience.
Me: That used to be livejournal. Now it's Melissa's inbox.
Emma: That's great. But Melissa doesn't count.

Who's their daddy?
The universe has been sending me submissive men lately.
A lot of them.
Clutters of mountains of stuff
I found the perfect-sized cheap-ass flimsy-as-hell kindergardeny-looking shelving at Target (pronounced “tar-ZHAY”). They’re assembled now, but still empty. Meanwhile, my floor is still full of clutter.
Packing and moving had a deadline. Unpacking and settling does not. Somehow I believed for a minute that I could take my time on it, that my life could go on amidst the clutter, and that my...
