Gender can be an ongoing process of transformation & flux. It can be shaped by our bodies, our senses, other people, landscapes, technology, and culture. What does Mastodon think about ways we can undo our gender with non-human things? Can we transform our gender by bathing in forests, eating new foods, or meeting new people?

How do people pronounce Mastodon? I say Masta-dun in a thick Australian accent. I attempted to make research notes on how to Toot, with my phone's in built dictation, but unfortunately, my phone did not understand a word of what I was saying. Here is a list of all the wonderful new words for Mastodon my phone invented:
Mr Dumb. Methadone. Mr Don. Master bone. Motech Space.

I've been thinking about my research focus, and I'm looking for help. If you do not identify as gay or lesbian (but still identify as non-heterosexual) and do not identify with the sex and/or gender assigned at birth, how would you describe your sexualites and genders? What term/s do you use? Do you use queer or non-binary or fluid? Or something else? #lgbtq #genderdiverse #nonbinary

I'm halfway through my first year at my new uni. I thought I’d share my experiences with others who might be struggling with their PhD journey.
There are options that may help you. For example, I transferred to a new uni because I was struggling at my first and I found the best fit for my research interests.
Sometimes, changing one or more parts of your doctoral, or even transfer, can help you on your research journey.
