Nonbinary is not the same as gender nonconforming, and the way nonbinary identities are presented (particularly in academia) and discussed limits and erases nonbinary people who do not present in ways that people "expect."

Wittgenstein argues that we are not naturally disposed towards unfriendliness or unsociality; by being speaking beings who create names for the things in our world, we show a predisposition of making something sharable -- language. The thing which separates us, according to Wittgenstein, is when we talk nonsense or mutual unintelligibility. Talking nonsense goes deeper than using a nonsense language, when we speak in nonsense, we are purposefully unintelligible.

Mr Rogers ethics extend to our own neighborhoods through how we welcome others. Rogers believes that we welcome people into the neighborhood as they are, and we like them as they are. We are called to overcome internal biases, to put aside the incidentals that are barriers to liking them. Rogers gives us tools to do so. He believes that discourse, even the offer of it, provides an open ground for individuals to meet and begin the process of welcoming each other.

and also by not reacting to his bullshit

Gonna send a firm 'idk' to the enbyphobic student by dressing really fucking weird.

I just realized that the student who was aggressive towards me was aggressive because I am trans.
My partner pointed that out to me. I was trying to give the benefit of the doubt, and my partner told me that the student in expressing transphobic beliefs on gender was also attacking me for being out as nonbinary

But it might be better esp since one student is focused on bodies to ask them who they think androids represent, and to not mention it, and we will talk about it friday....

Alright so I'm planning on waiting to tell the students that the androids are the Other, specifically the androids are being used to talk about race and disability.
I talked about disability, and I talked a little bit about race, but because it's a critical analysis class I want them to get to race on their own. I know a lot of the white students aren't realizing it, so I might wait until we are done with the text like the final day and ask who do they think androids represent.
