An alternative to the term non-binary gender which acknowledges that it is possible to count above two in binary so long as you use two or more bits. For instance with 2 bits you get 4 genders, 3 bits 8 genders, and 32 bits you get 4,294,967,296 genders. In general, with n bits there are two to the power of n possible genders.

poly overshare
The necessity and compulsion to share every single fucking thought or emotion with polyamorous partners, for the purpose of avoiding the minor miscommunications or misunderstandings that may not complicate a monogamous relationship, but which may snowball when there are three or more people involved.
Will cause poly relationships to develop at a ridiculous pace, as nothing is ever kept to one's self. Will also seem really, really crazy sometimes.

Omg I'm sorry I was a little distant just now; I was worried I might feel a little neglected eventually, even though I'm not feeling that way at all right now. I was just imagining how it might feel some day. Also, I kind of resent you for that eventuality.
Fuck, that was quite the poly overshare, huh.

TLDU
Sister: This meeting was to discuss the rough draft of my essay, where we discussed the subsidiary questions I added in my rough draft. We also discussed the relationship between my main title and the real-life situations I chose to use in my essay. We discussed the structure of my essay as well, specifically the Math AOK section and how it relates to the contradiction of the title. This second meeting was particularly helpful in discussing the implications of my essay claims and how to apply the title across various areas of knowledge. There were many sections of the essay that could have been cut down in wordiness and the ways of knowing required further and more in-depth analysis.
Me: Woah! TLDU!
