Post-Execution Steamcore (PESC)

A fringe subgenre of the totally real* musical movement known as Steamcore, characterized by an unholy alliance of industrial chaos, absurd performance art, and oddly specific sound requirements.

A proper PESC track must contain:

The sound of wet meat being slapped (meat drum, steak percussion, etc.)

Throat chanting in any language (preferably unknown)

Vague, alien-sounding nouns and verbs

At least one coherent spoken line that makes sense grammatically but has zero context

Screams, bells, or random telephone rings

At least one unorthodox instrument (e.g., tires, coat hangers, ball-peen hammers, spoons)

Steam noises, because Steamcore

Something called a polyphonic rupture, which nobody understands but everyone agrees sounds important

PESC is allegedly post-execution because it’s “what music sounds like after the final curtain,” according to self-declared genre prophet Fateswhim.

*Totally real in the same way Bigfoot’s Spotify is real.
“Bro, this track slapped — literally, there’s a guy hitting steaks in 7/8 time over a steam hiss while someone in the background keeps yelling about moose prophecy. 100% Post-Execution Steamcore (PESC)”

Post-binary

The term "non-binary" defines us as what we are not and the definitions of binary are specific to region and place.
"What gives me anxiety is the possibility that I would be required to wait for society to respect what comes after the gender binary. We so frequently absorb white supremacist violence that

"post-binary" is not available now and for some may not be experienced ever."

If we lived in a post-binary world- I may not want or need top surgery, but because this world sees in binary I yield my body to the general understanding of the masses
