I’M BISEXUAL

WHICH MEANS I LOVE MATTHEW GRAY GUBLER , HOZIER, THE CONCEPT OF DECAY, AND EVERY WOMAN I’VE EVER MET

- The mountains seem so close, and you drive for miles on end, but the mountains never get closer or farther.

- The cities are large and loud like any other, but stay away from the small towns, it gets harder to leave each time you go.

- It’s the middle of winter, so why is it so warm outside? There hasn’t been snow for weeks. But the clouds are there, large and gray and ominous. Why won’t they leave?

- It snows for days. Heavy snow that’s colder than possible. The schools shut down for several days. Everyone is snowed in, and the drifts are piled so high you can barely see over them.

- You don’t go out at night. No one does. Nobody knows why, but they just don’t. Because something lurks in the almost impossible  darkness.

- You find yourself peering out the window. It’s dark and all the lights are off; everyone is asleep. The only light comes from the streetlamp across the street. You don’t want to cross that street, but you don’t know why. Maybe it’s the scratches and pits dug into the street?

- Don’t play in the canal. Don’t go near the canal. It is angry; it will swallow you whole.

- Nothing ever happens. No crimes, no murder, no one ever dies in a car crash. It’s almost like the city is protecting you. They say it’s one of the safest places in the world to live. But you don’t believe it. Because you remember the ghosts that whisper terrifying words and set off car alarms and swish past windows.

- No one every moves. Not to or from. They always return. You go to school with the same people you’ve known for years. But you always feel bad when some does move from another state. Because they don’t know the rules. The rules that nobody says, but everyone knows.

- It’s raining again. That’s not new or abnormal, but everyone still turns to gaze out the windows at the howling winds. To listen to the angry pit-pat of the droplets. The skies are upset.

-You’re in the foothills. You’re not lost, but the dead grass and dry brush goes on forever. You can’t escape. You’re too afraid to try, anyway.

- There are either no trees, or that’s all there is for as far as the eye can see. There is never a middle, it’s always like this.

- You’ve heard the legends of horrible creatures that live in the forest of your summer camp. You’ve even saw one, but you’ll never tell. It’s taboo.

- If it’s a desert state, why is it always snowing or raining?

- The summers are hot and boiling, always over 100 degrees. The winters are cold and frozen, always below freezing. No one remembers spring; they don’t know if it happens anymore.

- For a “potato state” there is a disturbing lack of farms, potato or otherwise. But nobody talks about it. They don’t want to anger the land.

- The roads wind for ages. Where do they end? No one knows, and they don’t want to, either.

- The missionaries always turn up. They smile and ask the same questions. They all look alike. And they always come back, smiling. Always.

My FAVORITE THING is researchers who wholeheartedly embrace the Ms. Frizzle aesthetic and wear their field of study on their literal sleeve. Everyone in the invasive crayfish consortium has tiny lobster-print shorts or socks. All the middle-aged dad scientists here at the lab have shirts with fish and/or fishing tackle patterns on them. My moss specimen and ammonite earrings keep getting noticed by women who are wearing silver fishbone-shaped or native plant-themed earrings themselves. Every single person on the outreach team has at least one shirt with an anchor pattern on it from Old Navy, and almost all the younger researchers have tattoos featuring their research interests – one fisheries biologist has a half-sleeve of native species she literally uses as an outreach tool. We are self-aware and having a blast with it, honestly.

RIP my ovaries

Today is Denim Day, one of the last days of April which is Sexual Assault Awareness Month. Denim Day is a movement to show solidarity to the survivors of sexual assault. I'm taking a stand, well more sitting in this photo, for other survivors like myself. It may not seem like a rebellious act, putting on a pair of jeans, but it is. The young woman's abuser was set free after the conviction because "her jeans were too tight to be removed without help implying consent". Telling her story, being seen, and holding people accountable for their actions are steps towards ending assault culture. #denimday https://www.instagram.com/p/B_lTRl8D5fAm4PGvGRXIGtrad731ZEF8VrKTqw0/?igshid=s8v80iqwhyos
