Would be nice.

I learned very early in this life that many people would hate me for many different reasons, most of which had nothing to do with me. I concluded that they were prejudiced assholes that I didn't want to be around. And the other bits? I refuse to change myself for the sake of people I neither like, respect, nor admire.

Sooth. And I'm glad that you do.
We went to a fairy market a few days ago. I think you would've enjoyed it. First place I've been in years with a preponderance of freaks -- I think at least a third of the audience were nonhumans, might've been more.
>> and part of solution is to question and chip away at systems that hurt so many people for so long . <<
We do that just by existing, plus whatever more active methods we choose. Me, I like to write about alternatives that people could be enjoying. Sometimes they take bits of ideas and put them into practice.
