I spoke with a fellow Finnish woman who referred to her hand with "hän" gender pronoun. Those who don't know, we have only one gender pronoun in Finland; formal hän and informal se (meaning It).
Hän is formal and originally meant to be used only of people or entities with human consciousness (like, an alien species would still go with hän, even if they had 4000 genders). People do generously use it of pets, meaning that the animal is equal to a human and part of the human family it lives in.
So it was really funny example of how liberal we are with gender pronouns in Finland. You can casually note that this person, which is your hand, has underwent multiple surgeries but still refuses to heal. It implies that the hand has a consciousness of its own and it has just decided to be uncooperative with this healing process.
It is also, if asking me, adding this "cutesy" elements; yes, I know you are doing your best my little dear hand, and I know you are sick and I know how hard it is for you to have surgeries - but try harder.
#me personally i call inanimate objects hän all the time#my phone? hän. my laptop? hän. the stove? hän. etc#that being said for me it's entirely a form of passive aggressiveness and i exclusively do this when these objects aren't working#obviously this also goes for my body parts#they're all hän but only when they're causing me pain and thus are annoying me

While there's no wrong way to name a cat, and Cat Name Themes are fun, it's also so funny when someone's cats' names have no consistent theme and are all over the place. Like
"Here are my five cats: Artemis, Beenie, HP Officejet 78 Printer, H.P. Lovecraft, and Cunt."

I will never get over how weird it feels to have tragic and emotional chapters of your life where you just also still go to work, and the grocery store, and see funny videos online all while feeling such paralyzing fear and heartache
life just goes on no matter what

It's wild to me that there are people out there who genuinely don't like women. I'm not even talking like romantically or sexually or anything I mean like they just don't care about them at all.
They won't watch or read anything with female main characters, they don't listen to music made by women, they don't ever think about girls at all. It's crazy to me

HOW TO BOYCOTT EUROVISION
A few months of writing, rewriting, and editing all on my own has led to this:

Please share this as far and wide as you can. I know people feel hopeless but there's still so much to learn and do.
Free Palestine, then now and always.
