 I cosplayed [Rose Quartz](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Steven_Universe_characters#Rose_Quartz) on Saturday at [FanimeCon](https://www.fanime.com/) the other month! It was fun, I think! I guess?

 For me, it's my one socially-acceptable excuse for crossdressing in public.

-.@LessWrong has the brains, @Quillette has the courage, social justice has the heart. What heroine or hero among us can unite these three virtues and shepherd us home to a Nice Place to Live??

-Shared mass-blocklists might help here? Although that does, unfortunately, put the onus of the trivial inconvenience [TODO linky] on the reader. Not sure what else to suggest (in the face of disagreements on what Tweets constitute harm), sorry. [cold sweat]
-
-Less-harsh rephrasing: passing (and especially passing-for-cis) has a large effect on social outcomes for "deep" structural reasons; unfortunately, more or better trans-rights political activism won't solve this problem [cold sweat] (but, e.g., cheaper facial feminization surgery might!)
-
-There's a sense in which cis is the default—cis (non-trans) bodies are what you get in the absence of exogenous hormone replacement therapy. (There were some permanent effects after my 5-month 2017 HRT experiment, so I'm "less" cis than I would otherwise be in a way??)
-
-Trans people are a sufficiently small minority that I wouldn't be surprised if medical science doesn't yet know what things are due to developmental sex and what to current hormone levels—it would be great to see more research to clear this up [female scientist emoji]

-Just realized why this kind of bad faith is so common: when dissent is socially punished, but ignorance is tolerated (conditional on continuing education), dissenters have an incentive to pretend (in bad faith) to be slow learners. 1/2
-
-The naïve 'classical-liberal' response of, "Well, then just don't socially punish dissent, yaaay freeze peach" doesn't solve the problem if you actually DO want to crush dissent (of, e.g., literal Nazis). 2/2

-I guess I'm not sure what the truth condition is for being nonbinary? ("NBs are people who say they're NB" seems too much like circular reasoning.) I could start to become a trans woman by getting back on HRT, but I'm not sure what the process is for being NB [include hormones photo]

 like, compared to the ENTIRE REST OF SPACETIME, I'm yet another nice smart progressive Jewish trans girl, just like everyone else 2/5
