I am a meat popscicle. runtime exceeds 40,000 hours cumulative, they/them/any ace/ genderqueer 🏳️‍⚧️ (and if you have a problem with it, you can fuck all the way off.) Figments of my imagination may pop in and say hello- they are mostly friendly.

PLUS INFINITY! I didn't start exploring my gender until my mid-40s, several failed relationships, and a gargantuan amount of depression and despair; I almost instantly went "yep, I'm decidedly not male" and I'm slowly recognizing that I'm some variable point between the two binaries.

The best humans I know are all off the binary.

And maybe it's true. Maybe we will be defeated. Maybe the horrors will win. But not like this? No. Definitely not. Not like this, with us divided and confused and bewildered. With us overrun. "Not like this." That means "Not Today". And "Not Today" is a *powerful* bit of magic.

If they want to win, they'll have to fight. If they want my resigned acceptance, they'll have to crush my spirit. And sure, friends, they're trying. They are shoveling so much shit that they expect us to choke. But we've been through this already. We've beaten better opponents than this.

For a brief moment, we held a vision of hope for a better future. That vision is cloudy now. They want us certain it's gone forever. But no, that glimpse simply proved to us it's really out there, somewhere. That our fighting and resistance can have an effect. That it can lead to something better.

Let them hear us say "Not like this." Let them hear us shout it. Let them hear it when we walk. When we call. When we write. When we protest. Let it be on every overpass, on every wall.

Not like this? I agree. Not like this. Not today. And not tomorrow. Never like this. Never again. We've done it before folks. We'll do it again. And after that, if we must. Let's show them what "Not like this" really means.

My bad; I mis-read how it works; the 10,000 vote threshold means it gets reviewed by LEGO directly, and may or may not get turned into a set. (I really hope it does, though.)
